That trimetal is really really nice. Just wish it wasn't titanium heavy and had the same amount of each metal.

If the bracelet was Ti-Au-Ta-Au-Ti it would have been perfect. But still a fantastic piece. I dislike divers in general but I really like this one. No date is a plus.

From the pictures on their website it looked like it was a fun event to attend! I wonder if they'll be highlighting Omega even more in their stories now that they are an authorized Omega retailer. Not that I expect any journalistic integrity on their part since they are watch enthusiasts more than they are journalists, but I'd hate for them to start writing puff pieces to help boost their sales (though I guess I couldn't blame them).

I love reading their stories about watches that I would otherwise not have known about.

Puff pieces are ok in my books as long as they retain their integrity. Fortunately smoke up the arse is generally easy to spot

one word: availability

So nice to see a display of SS pro line at retail!

Glad H. is carrying the brand. A lot of ties to it from the main writers that precede and transcen this new commercial partnership.

Thanks for the pics. Looks like a fun time!

Hodinkee is basically an online AD at this point. Pop-up shop? That is just marketing hype to get you in the door for a temp space so they don't have to keep paying retail rent. Good for them, I guess.

Are they offering any discounts? Say on a Mark II, orange markers?

1William · 19 November 2019, 09:40 PM

Was there on Sunday, pretty neat store but not sure people go there to buy anything (maybe books, straps etc). Ben, Cara and Joe Thompson were in as well
