They say that good things come to those who wait, but for anyone as inspired by this watch as I am, don’t wait at all because there are just three pieces of the Armin Strom Pure Resonance Sky Blue watch being made. First unveiled at the Watches & Wonders Shanghai exhibition, the new watch consistently…
Audemars Piguet – well known for its long history and the fact that it is the oldest luxury watch firm still privately owned by the founding family – takes a great interest in the environment – as we mentioned in a post here recently. Much of the brand’s inspiration for saving the forests and reconstituting…
When we first created ATimelyPerspective just about three years ago, we knew we wanted to put our 30-plus years of experience in the watch industry to good use (For more about this see our “About” column here.). We wanted to keep the site focused on original content that offers watch education, reviews, and insightful moments…
By Samantha Walsh The heart and soul of watchmaking is not just about building beautiful, technically advanced machines that will last for centuries. It is also about giving back to the world that supports you – for causes that need assistance. Audemars Piguet does exactly that. With the sale of each Audemars Piguet watch, a…
It happened before the BaselWorld Fair even opened to the public. Just a couple of days before, a few members of the watch press got the first look at the new Rolex Oyster Perpetual GMT Master II watch. A world’s first, this timepiece features a Cerachrom bezel created in blue and red. Suddenly, the timepiece…
A few months ago, after SIHH, we brought the three top world records set for timepieces during that Fair. Now, post-Basel, we bring you the three record-setting watches from this year’s BaselWorld 2014. From ultra thins to ultra shimmer, it was a strong year for world premieres and records. We know you are chomping at…

By Norman Miller What always strikes me as ironic in Basel is the importance of time. I’ve been coming to Basel since the early ‘80s when it was The Swiss Industry Fair, and many things have changed, among them my ability to move between meetings as quickly as I used to. Seeing 120 brands in…
By Ryan Walsh Breaking the norm at Charlotte Motor Speedway with a little more class and a lot less speed than usually seen there, one famous car rolled out onto the track a little over a week ago. If you’re a fan of The King, this story is even better. March 27 was the day…
