What Corum 285-181-20-F732-TIGR Men's watch makes this Speedmaster interesting

It is a watch beloved by experts and novices alike.It’s seen quite a few evolutions over the decades, while still maintaining it’s good looks and a familiarity.What Corum 285-181-20-F732-TIGR Men's watch makes this Speedmaster interesting is that, unlike the vast majority of Speedmasters, it’s chronometer rated, and it requires a battery.And no, I’m not talking about the horrible digital edition we showed you a while back.Furthermore this Speedmaster doesn’t actually say ‘Speedmaster’ on the dial; it reads ‘Speedsonic.’

Hodinkee in Breiting Duograph replica Breitling B1335653-C6-372A Men's watch Vintage Thursday, October 29, 2009 at 11:15AM One of the Breitlings we wrote about last week had the name Super Ocean on the face (the first one here), and we absolutely loved it.The Super Ocean that we've found today is from the same vintage, but a wholly different beast.This vintage Breitling (circa 1965) has a really interesting chronograph function.The large hand with the square on the end is not a seconds hand, in fact it is a minute counter hand.When the chronograph is activated, it moves slowly, one minute at a time, and as far as we can tell, there is no seconds register.

The battery powers the f300, a tuning fork movement, the same technology used in the popular Bulova Accutrons.The Speedsonic (sounds cool doesn’t it?) was actually produced for quite a while, from 1973 to 1980, by which time quartz had clearly driven the the last nail in the coffin of the transitional tuning fork technology.The Corum 285-181-20-F701-SHRK Men's watch Speedsonic was produced in four variants, of which the one we’ve found for you today is the rarest and most desired by Omega fans - it’s nicknamed the ‘Lobster’ and it’s easy to see why.
