Ooh, new Sinn collaboration with The Rake and Revolution, looks shiny

https://www.revolution.watch/introducing-the-sinn-x-the-rake-revolution-155-bundeswehr-dark-star/

...aaand it sold out. in under 2 hours.

smol! 🦔

this is starting to look like an arbour

It's probably going to sell a lot better than their last foray into novel strap systems which is this ridiculous thing they must have put together in a panic when they heard the sales figures from the apple iwatch or whatever

Ooh, this is neat, new thing from Sinn, the DuoFlex diving strap system

Has tool-less quick change for straps of different colours/lengths and quick microadjust for the length

Here's the product info sheet for it: https://www.sinn.de/en/Download/Bedienungsanleitung/engl/Sinn_DuoFlex_en.pdf

this one's living in the hedgehog house I made earlier this year!

Here's the world's first pilot's watch

Made by Louis Cartier for his friend Alberto Santos-Dumont, who was also the first person to fly a plane without wind- or hill-assisted bullshit

It's also credited with being one of the timepieces that first popularised wristwatches for men, previously the wristwatch was classed as a feminine piece of jewellery with men wearing pocket watches

how to scare the crap out of USAians in one picture

huh, this is a neat thing I just found out

turns out on the Casio W800 there's a countdown timer function that's disabled in hardware

and you can enable it by just removing some solder

might have to do that to one at some point

with all those tardigrades being spilled on the moon we know what we're getting in a couple million years

apparently York council are trialling the purge

birbs

super close up hedgie!

cw: eye contact

The rumours were true, Seiko are indeed bringing out new watches to replace the venerable SKX, now coming under the Seiko 5 sports lineup

27 new watches in fact

Upgrades are a bump to the 4R36 movement and a display caseback, downgrade is only 100m of water resistance

Expected price is around €280, so about where the SKX was

someone should tell the 30-50 feral hogs guy how well trying to shoot large groups of wildlife went for the aussies
