  12. Watch Fact of the Day: The Mechanical Alarm That Won Over US Presidents

    So, back in 1947, Vulcain rolled out a game-changer: the Cricket wristwatch, which could actually wake you up thanks to its super loud mechanical alarm. This wasn't just any watch; it turned its case into an acoustic system, delivering a noticeable buzz when the alarm went off. The Cricket became a favorite among U.S. presidents, earning it the nickname "The Presidents' Watch." Fast forward to today, and the updated Crickets still bring that cool mechanical charm, buzzing away without any batteries or electronics. It’s a cool reminder of how watchmaking tech stood out way before the digital age!

  17. Watch Fact of the Day: The Omega Speedmaster Was Originally Designed for Auto Racing

    The Omega Speedmaster started its journey back in 1957, aimed at motorsport enthusiasts, not astronauts. It was part of Omega's "Professional Line" with design features like a tachymeter scale for measuring speed, making it a go-to for racers. But plot twist: the Speedmaster ended up being picked for NASA's Apollo missions, earning its nickname "Moonwatch." This unexpected shift from the racetrack to space made its story super intriguing. The watch, built for speed on the ground, became legendary for traveling to the Moon. It's a prime example of how an object's purpose can evolve dramatically over time.

  38. В плане типографики были плохо сделаны числа на дисплее у ранних вариантов Sanda 9031 и Sanda 1108 — не просто есть белые дыры, а весьма заметные. Теперь эта ситуация видна лишь по старым рендерам и старым фото, на трёхлетних видео обзорах. Которые в карточках товаров идут в перемешку с фотографиями или рендерами новых вариантов.

    Когда в продаже попадается такой вариант, залежавшегося товара с ранних партий (с белыми дырами), то смысла брать нет почти никакого. Такое можно брать лишь собираясь поменять циферблат на какую-то свою версию, где римские цифры сдвинуты как у других производителей (более качественно проработанных хомажей) и же варианта от оригинального вендора. У современных вариантов Sanda 9031 и Sanda 1108 уже исправлена эта проблема неравномерных белых дыр между числами цифрами.

    С другой стороны, если уж менять циферблат, то можно и что-то повеселее использовать. Причём, ведь можно выбирать из уже готовых вариантов, а не выдумывать отсебятины. Поскольку рынок давно изобилует самыми разными вариантами часов такого формата, с очень разнообразными оформлениями циферблата (весьма качественно и недурно проработанных в плане дизайна с типографикой). Когда и цифры арабские вместо римских и лучи на отметки и текстура более выраженная и «железная дорога» не обязательно по краю, а может быть ближе к центру.
    Циферблат ведь можно отпечатать на той же фотобумаге на обычном принтере.

    В целом, это игрушка за €10-12, при таком ценнике нет смысла вестись на скидки для экземпляров из старых залежавшихся партий трёхлетней давности. Гораздо проще найти из свежих партий и не тратить время на устранение дизайна-дефектов циферблата.
