Bad Luck Begone! - The Richard Mille RM 26-02 Tourbillon Evil Eye
I didn’t really get this watch at first. As we conventionally understand the term, one is said to have been afflicted with the evil eye if one experiences an unmitigated and inexplicable stretch of misfortune, suffering and illness. It’s more or less like a kind of jinx. The way I saw it, there didn’t seem […]

Beyond “His And Hers” - The Genre-Spanning Timepieces Of Watches & Wonders 2015
A watch is a very personal thing. There is absolutely no question about this.

My family aren’t actually very keen on watches, which means they’re frequently mystified by […]

Dispatches From A Faraway Land - The Piaget Altiplano Scrimshaw Engraving Watch
The art of scrimshaw is surrounded by layer upon layer of romance, tradition and controversy. Originating on whaling ships, where whalebone and marine ivory (mostly from walrus tusks) was plentiful, scrimshaw involves engraving on bone or ivory, with pigment applied to bring out the design. One of the great classics of American literature, Herman Melville’s […]

Unlock Your Time - The Clé De Cartier Flying Tourbillon
It is impossible to overstate the importance of the calibre 9452 MC in the history of Cartier’s high watchmaking department. Those unfamiliar with the evolution and progress of Cartier Fine Watchmaking will see the calibre 9452 - a manual-winding flying tourbillon - as just another reference in Cartier’s vast panoply of complicated movements.

In The Shadow Of The Moon - The Montblanc Bohème Moongarden
The moon wasn’t always female. Well actually, the moon was never female, because technically it has no gender - it is an inanimate chunk of rock - but you know what I mean. People think of the moon as being feminine. It’s interesting to note that in most ancient cultures, the moon was seen as […]

Under The Skin Of The Van Cleef & Arpels Peau d’Âne Forêt Enchantée
Very few children’s stories are for children. To put it more accurately, there are no fairy tales which we would deem suitable for children today if we were to tell them in their original form. Even some expurgated versions are pretty raw - Hansel and Gretel is essentially a story about child abandonment and cannibalism […]
