Just came across this image

Are... are the Germans okay?

Cartier are really knocking it out of the park with their revamp of the Santos collection, the new Santos Chronograph is very nice indeed

Single Start/Stop pusher on the left, Reset pusher is integrated into the crown on the right

Only available in the XL format though, which might be a bit too big on some people

for carving things like spoons or bowls out of wood it's usually suggested that you use something called a "hook knife" to get the round sort of hollow shape

they cost about 20 quid

I didn't want to spend 20 quid, so I got a set of 3 ring spanners from poundland and spent some time with a dremel (other rotary tools are available) and made this ring knife type thingy that does the job fine

the label for Peat Monster whisky is fantastic

inkling maker thing!

Not exactly the best time to release a Fallout themed watch, but Laco and A Blog to Watch have collabed on this thing

It's kinda cool looking, I personally prefer for my watches to get that "aged" look through actual use rather than finishes applied by the factory, but it's cool if you want a watch that looks like it's from Fallout
