Coolest thing at Baselworld this year, the Urwerk AMC

It's a mechanical watch that is set, regulated, and wound by an actual honest to god atomic clock

It is hella cool

It just wouldn't be Baselworld if Rolex didn't release something awful and tacky

Rolex Rainbow Daytona in Everose Gold

New G-Shock Rangeman

GPS with MUTHAFUKIN SOLAR ASSISTED CHARGING

The solar charging doesn't keep up with the power drain of the GPS, but it'll let you use the that bit for an hour after 4 hours of charging in 50,000 lux (50% direct sunlight)

The solar does however keep all other functions running including the altimeter, barometer, and compass

Holy crap, Breitling have released a version of the Navitimer in an actually reasonable size! 41mm

Hell must have frozen over

New piece of ridiculousness from MB&F & L'epee 1839

The Fifth Element, it's a desktop weather station

MB&F stuff is always fun

SOUND BURGER

Possibly the only time I'd refuse a cup of tea

Fun fact: Leonardo DiCaprio doesn't actually know how to wear a watch

It's meant to go on your wrist Leo!

This is Pita, he's a good cat

Here's an interesting watch

Case made of acetate tortoiseshell, don't see that often

LOL

This is a picture of a man thinking "oh shit, who knew gay furries were so loud?"

(it's Gabriel Harasim, Hiveway CEO)

Just me, a perfectly normal human, taking a perfectly normal walk

The German Foreign Office are a class act

Just got a little microbit to play with

Usually I'd just do a "hello world" but considering what today is I went with something else

Sinn have got some new limited editions coming out

75 of each worldwide

Mechanically identical to the standard 756/757 just in different case finishing and dial colouring

Not sure they're entirely my thing but it's interesting to see Sinn experimenting with some different colours like this
