SEA BUNNY!

Jorunna Parva, tiny lil underwater sea slugs what are fluffy and look like smol buns

Sadly very poisonous so no pets

This is neat

Two independent bezels, one count-up for timing stuff, one 12- or 24-hour bezel for time zones

$300 to $500 depending on variant, look like decent watches

While I'm being a total Sinn geek, did you know that the Sinn 141 S was one of the first automatic watches worn in space?

It was on the wrist of Reinhard Furrer during Spacelab D1, a similar watches were also worn on Mir and during Spacelab D2

He bought the watch privately and wanted to show that an automatic watch would still wind itself without the help of gravity

:( Sinn just discontinued the T2

Real shame, there's nothing quite like it on the market anywhere, 41mm tonneau case, titanium so it's really light, sad to see it go out the collection

The T1's still there though, but that one's 45mm so just not the same

Ooh, cool new watch if you're a Queen fan

Here's an interesting look at how things can change in the watch world

This is an advert from a jewellers from 1977 offering an Omega Speedmaster for £158 next to a Seiko Digital Chronograph for £165

These days it costs £4,700 for a Speedmaster and under £20 for an equivalent digital watch

I missed this from before christmas but Seiko did a collab with this JoJo's Bizarre Adventure thing that large parts of the internet won't fucking shut up about

All Japanese Domestic Market only, each limited to 1,000 units

THE WOMBLES ARE SOLARPUNK

Huh. I guess Makita really do make everything you could use an 18v battery with

This is a filter coffee machine that runs off a Makita battery like what you'd use in a drill

No idea why they make it, but they do

This is a $360,000 watch that plays the theme from The Godfather on demand

Because that was a thing that had to exist for some reason
