Well hello!
I’ve dug my heels in long enough and I’m finally surrendering into the vulnerability of blogging. I can give you a million reasons that have talked me out of this for SO long, but I’ll spare you. Instead, I’ll just say that I’m excited to be part of this world, but mostly terrified.
You will see peeks into our rhythms, being present and fully embracing process, a little humor, and some recipes that I’ve concocted over the years.
You will not see long and lengthy novels with each post. But you will see snippets of the things that stir my heart, and some very average iPhone pictures 😂. Nonetheless, I’m excited to connect to you guys in a new way and expound upon my instagram world!
So hello! And welcome to our space. ❤️
Parmigiani Fleurier turns 25 years old this year. But link rather than experience a quarter-life crisis like I – and many others – did, the company feels more focused and energized on its future, in both the near and long term, than I've ever seen it. If the Tonda PF line is any indication of the quality of design and watchmaking we'll see link in the future from Parmigiani under Terreni's link leadership, I think the company is in excellent hands.
It's fun and creative, but don't expect the same effect. At different angles, link you'll be able to see more of link the hands or the dial post. The link same could be said for Patek's 5330G World Time date indication, which has a similar floating effect but still can be seen at certain angles. But here, it's just a fun reissue for an affordable price and it's great to see Timex doing a lot of different and fun things with the Q line.
All told it's a simple, understandable, and entirely exciting development for one of the OG faux-vintage dive watches. With new sizing, continued tool-level specs, COSC timekeeping, and a link variety of mount options, Longines continues to impress with their 2023 novelties, and I'd imagine that this new link take on an old diver will be very popular for link those who appreciated the Legend Diver design but wanted it in a more conventional mid-sized offering.
Up until today, the list of essential watches according to Hodinkee link wasn't a list at link all – it was the Speedmaster Professional. "I'm not saying you have to keep it," Ben Clymer wrote in 2016, "but I link really think each man or woman who loves watches owes it to themselves to own a manually wound, three-register Speedmaster at some point in their lives."
But the war, what I do not like is that it gives you fear and you don't feel comfortable, and this link is not good. I'm so happy to be in the watch industry because I give joy to people. This is, for me, the most important part. I wish that it would be like this all around link the world. But human as we are, I link don't think it will happen.
