@Graeme:

Having said that, I do like the new Explorer with the extra lume. Via Hodinkee.

Thank God, Rolex FINALLY fixed the handset on the 39mm Explorer.

Some of my watches collected over the years.From the simple to the complicated.

Another new Rolex, this time the Air King.

What people are missing, including Hodinkee is that this has a soft iron inner case. That's right, it's antimagnetic, and that makes it a lot more interesting.

OK, some alternative watch porn.

Grand Seiko Spring Drive Eight Day Power Reserve

A limited edition of eight pieces, which Hodinkee says will retail for around $55K. They're being made by Seiko's top watchmakers.

Bvlgari Octo Finissimo Minute Repeater

The world's thinnest minute repeater is now made by Bvlgari. Hang on, aren't they meant to be an jewelery brand? Hodinkee and aBlogToWatch have details. I love the dial treatment, but not the CHF 160K price.

The Monsieur de Chanel

Just launched at Baselworld, this is a new men's watch by Chanel. Jumping hour, retrograde minutes, and the finishing on the movement is fantastic. More at Hodinkee.

I've always had a soft spot for the Air King and this model is no exception. Is this the first model with a Faraday cage? I am loving all the attention that sane sized watches are getting in 2016!

Faraday cage is in any anti-magnetic model like the Milgauss models.

Sorry, I meant the first Air King model.
