Just in time for Christmas came my first NWA since April last year, the Habring2 Aurora. Like its predecessor, the Endurance, it is a collaboration with cronotempVs and is themed around Shackletonβs extreme polar expeditions. Both watches have been produc...
The grey and grey-blue color scheme is really very nice and the tide complication is such an original one (and useful when by the sea). I also like the design of the tide hand and the overall look on your wrist is just great! That's a wonderful Christmas ...
Although I did attempt to take penguins to the North Pole for a marketing shoot some years ago but was told they would probably freeze to death and that they do not appreciate being dressed up in branded vests to keep them warm π€·π»ββοΈπ One lives and learns...
I think they get dizzy and fall over when you spin them in the opposite direction "up north" (obviously guessing) but they seem quite happy to be living a few miles from me at Sea World AND the San Diego Zoo, where they are fed regularly and don't have to...

You need a dedicated table per location but then close locations would not differ markedly. Nowadays thatβs also a click of a button away online to find it and setting it is easy. I guess if you were at sea you would on occasion update it. And if you are ...
Very cool, huge congratulations, and as someone that is a tide-sensitive sailor (grounded 3x this summer?), I am very impressed by how thoughtfully this watch was designed/engineered. I am quite envious of the 33 owners, and will keep a lookout if any com...
With the requisite complications added on πππ» Not many tide complication watches out there these days, so the choice is limited (Heuer doing one of the others). Will keep fingers crossed for you ππ€π»
