Post by: InfoGuru on Nov 07, 2011, 02:32 PM
The "Virgin" king Sir Richard Branson teams up with Bulova for a special limited edition watch (http://www.ablogtoread.com/bulova-accutron-sir-richard-branson-limited-edition-watch/). 46mm wide and done in titanium, the watch features a GMT hand and world time function.

May the high-end watch world's fascination with digital mechanical watches never end. The newest drool-worthy mechanical creation is a watch with the simple name of 2LMX (http://www.ablogtoread.com/2lmx-watch/). It features a highly complex mechanical movement with a vertical tourbillon, and the time told in 24 hour format on a series of revolving drums.

Created with the help of a watchmaker/mathematician the new Zenith Captain Winsor Annual Calendar Chronograph watch (http://www.ablogtoread.com/zenith-captain-winsor-annual-calendar-watch/) offers a slew of useful features at a glance. It also has a smooth classic look that offers a timeless feel – appropriate for most any man.

We are excited about this March LA.B AM1 40 Automatic watch giveaway (http://www.ablogtoread.com/giveaway-march-la-b-am1-40-black-automatic-watch/). The AM1 40 is inspired by the look and feel of classic American muscle cars and has a modern, yet totally retro feel.

Orient has offered well-priced mechanical watches made in Japan for a long while. Japan in general is probably the best source for good mechanical watches that won't break the bank. Reviewed here is Orient's newer M-Force Diver watch (http://www.ablogtoread.com/orient-m-force-sel03001d-diver-watch-review/).
