Customized Vacheron Constantin Quai de l'Ile Collection Makes Me Sigh With Despair At The Sheer Pointlessness Of Message Behind This Watch
Do you recall thinking how dumb it was to combine a toaster oven and a radio? Perhaps it could have some conceivable space saving use; but really, What is the point? To prove it can be done? If you haven’t heard of concept, it stems from the idea of unnecessary convergence products. You see combinations of products like this all the time, and sometimes they make more sense than others. Other times however, the whole idea is so repugnant both visually and in execution, that it just makes you upset. Not upset at the idea itself, that is all fun and games, but combining X and Y would be cool! Rather, what is disturbing is the notion that a dedicated group of otherwise intelligent people sat down for months designing, engineering, and executing a monstrosity. Having said that, the following is my perception and opinion of the new Vacheron Constanin Quai de l’Ile collection, which follows this theme.It is important to state that for the most part, I really like Vacheron Constant
Raymond Weil Freelancer Piper Pilot Watch Review
For their first pilot watch, Raymond Weil decided to partner with Piper Aircraft. Not that anything about the watch itself says or indicates Piper, but the airplane maker is in the official name of the watch, which is the Raymond Weil Freelancer Piper – and it exists as a limited edition. It isn’t clear why Raymond Weil decided to produce a pilot watch, or why it exists in the Freelancer collection. It is, however, not bad, and has some unique elements which help it stand out (if even just a bit) from the larger context of Swiss pilot-style mechanical watches.I should also mention that I am happy to see Raymond Weil doing something new. It has been a while since we’ve covered a new sports watch from the brand – which, for the most part, exist in their Nabucco collection. You might recall that we recently covered the brand’s first tourbillon, which was the Raymond Weil Nabucco Cello Tourbillon (hands-on here). So what about the Freelancer Piper?
