The romance of a resonance is when two oscillators in close proximity, with the same natural frequency, beat in synchrony in an unscientific way.

My 红包 just arrived (special delivery) last night and our extended family circle celebrations are later this week. Seemed like a good day to grab the Resonance.

This book was the first thing that popped to my mind, not quite an appropriate parallel but like those kids and their unhinged desire for Polo Ralph Lauren I think you’ve built a fantastic collection. Only thing that’s missing really is something from the

Thanks, but that's a haaaard pass for me! As for the resonance running on magic, perhaps I used the term wrong. I did not mean "magic" as in what ancient people believed was the cause of lightning because they lacked understanding. We well know how the pr

Lots to agree on, Thin watch I think wears nicer on the wrist and i prefer the presence, not sure if its the curved bars connecting the strap but when I tried a CS in the boutique was very nice on the wrist there but easy to forget as well. (and I have pr

1) Out of interest if I understood correctly you do think resonance occurs when the balances are linked like in the Armin Storm but not in the FPJ because the lightness of the balance spring is so tiny Vs the mass of the main plate so the idea the vibrati

Not at all bothered if you doubt resonance in FPJ watches. I still feel like I'm learning even about other double balance watches and how they work. Out of interest if I understood correctly you do think resonance occurs when the balances are linked like

Just that watches with two separate balances, resonance or not, still average the beat rate through some sort of mechanical differential. Even the FPJ resonance when the balances aren't in resonance the watch is still taking the the outputs of each and av

I have often thought it interesting that this is never cited as a resonance watch, I think because they are on the same balance staff/ axis so is enhancing the mass of the oscillator to improve accuracy as less easily disturbed and going in opposing direc

this was excellent and touched on some many makers. The video is very hypnotic, I had to show my wife who seemed unimpressed I was showing her a table of Metronomes and trying to explain how its like what happens in a watch that contains 2 dials from a br
