I will not spoil all the surprises that lie inside, however the desk of contents is actually one thing to behold. Yu Sekiguchi, the editor-in-chief of HODINKEE Japan, shares his favourite Tokyo espresso retailers, classic shops, and extra; Cole Pennington meets the world’s most devoted collector of Bang & Olufsen tube radios; and James Stacey affords up each a deep-dive into Rolex’s Perpetual Planet program, displaying what a watch model can do past making watches, and an in depth evaluation of a trio of top-tier perpetual calendars that break the mildew. Jack Forster tells the story of a singular Alfa Romeo with a Bertone physique that he lovingly calls, “some of the breathtaking vehicles of all time,” and I get nerdy in regards to the iconic TAG Heuer Carrera within the newest “Reference Factors” installment.
I might be remiss if I did not point out Ben’s profile of LA-based artist Wes Lang, whose punk rock aesthetic gives an ideal backdrop for his severe love of horology that features the likes of Akrivia, Credor, Grand Seiko, Patek Philippe, and extra. He shares tales in regards to the watch he present in a prepare station as a child that kicked off his lifelong ardour, the Swatch that accompanied him by way of his early life, and the ways in which watches have influenced his apply as an artist too. It is totally compelling, and the pictures from Pete Halvorsen take issues to a different stage totally.
