Watch Review: Rolex Sea Dweller

Monday, September 24th, 2007

Introduction.

I recently obtained a Sea Dweller (model number 16600). As the name implies and as most of you will know, this is the deep sea diver of the Rolex line. It uses Rolex movement 3135, and is COSC certified. I was looking for a rugged tool watch in this line. I like a date feature in a watch, and found that I did not like the Cyclops. I know many are fans of that feature, but–and this is a personal opinion–I found the Cyclops overwhelmed the crystal and was distracting to me. So, I chose the Sea Dweller; it is rugged, heavily built, meant to last, is beautiful in a low-key fashion and has the features I want in a tool watch.

Overall.

Rolex has been a name most of has have know since we were quite young. I recall the excellent advertisments that Rolex ran in the National Geogprahic magazines of the 1970’s, portaying their watches as the quintessential tool for explorers and adventurers far and wide. It was a watch that looked rugged, the first I’d seen with protective shoulders around the crown, indicative of the risks of adventure that the wearer accepted by taking on such an iconic watch. It certainly wasn’t the plain flat disc that my father and uncles wore. Since I’m a firm believer that a tool watch is to be used, not locked away, I have been wearing the Sea Dweller at work and at home, and have not been suprised to find it is a beautiful, accurate and rugged timepiece that is a pleasure to use.

Monday, September 10th, 2007

The bespoke market survives amidst a mass manufacturing revolution. Ian Flaherty designs and manufacturesCufflink men’s bespoke cufflinks in his London based workshop ready to be distributed nationally and internationally.

Visit Ian at his studio and you’ll find him working at the coal face with his subordinates, unafraid to get his hands dirty. A Scouser by birth and the son of a builder he chose a different career path that lead him out of working class Liverpool and into London, the fashion capitol of the world.

Transforming a Train into Cufflinks

Monday, August 20th, 2007

BRITAIN’S most famous steam engine, the Flying Scotsman, is being turned into cufflinks.Cufflinks

Bronze parts replaced during a major overhaul at the National Railway Museum in York are being recast into jewelery, as well as a sculpture of the 83-year-old iconic locomotive.

The scrap comes from the train’s firebox, boiler and axle-box and is believed by NRM engineers to have been fitted in a previous overhaul during the 1940s.

The Flying Scotsman service began between Edinburgh Waverley and London Kings Cross in 1862, and in the 1930s the locomotive could make the journey in seven hours and 20 minutes.

The £150 cufflinks show the driver’s cab, complete with driver peering from his window above the trademark number “4472″.

The pieces are all designed by York-based sculptor Stephen Allen, a railway enthusiast whose father was a fireman for the LNER railway company which first operated the Flying Scotsman.

Profits from the sale will fund continuing restoration work on the locomotive.
