It applies to both but from what I've been able to gather (and I'm far from an expert) mechanical watches are more vulnerable to being magnetized but I'm not sure why.
To reach the "<2 seconds a day" is where you end up paying the most dollars. This is Rolex and up territory for the most part (unless you go Spring drive and Grand Seiko; a few other small Japanese...
They've caught up with Kel Tec then?

It is what Ian Fleming wore.
Though I would argue that the GMT is a more fitting watch to an "international spy". But Pussy Galore was there first.

Nope, start one :-)
I have a gen3 G23 with an extra 357 SIG barrel. When shooting the 357s, it is loud as hell, hits a bit harder in my palm but tends to come back down faster and without any "wobble".
The noise is...
Don't wait too long as it is a near immediate sequel and you want to keep what you just read fresh in your mind. You're also going to get a deeper dive into what made the first "beautiful, awful,...

To adapt it somewhat (correct me if I'm wrong):
Lots of young men = lots of stupid activity, a lot of it is crime.
Lots of poor people = lots of prey thus lots of crime
Lots of poor young...
Indeed, and it’s actually wearable being just a little thicker than a Rolex Submariner.
Google JLC’s Reverso Hybris Mechanica. You will be amazed.
Yes it does, that’s the whole purpose of the perpetual calendar. If it can’t do that it’s just an annual calendar. In this particular watch, the calendar and moonphase are synched and reportedly will...
