  1. Vacheron Constantin Les Cabinotiers Solaria Ultra Grand Complication Boasting an extraordinary 41 complications and 13 patents, Vacheron Constantin’s Les Cabinotiers Solaria Ultra Grand Complication sets a new world record as the most complex wristwatch ever created. This masterpiece, the result of eight years of meticulous research and development, houses the innovative caliber 3655, a movement composed of 1,521 components, achieving an impressive feat of miniaturization within its 45mm white gold case. Among its remarkable features is a minute repeater with Westminster chimes, secured by seven patents, alongside precise mechanisms for sunrise, sunset, equation of time as well as sun height — all managed via a multi-cam wheel system. The intricate dials include sapphire discs for moonphases, tides and zodiac signs, while the reverse side highlights sidereal time and celestial constellations. With its elegant double-sided design and exquisite craftsmanship – evident in details like aluminum split-seconds chronograph hands and ultra-thin sapphire components – the Solaria Ultra Grand Complication stands as a testament to Vacheron Constantin’s unwavering pursuit of excellence in haute horology. https://hypebeast.com/2025/4/vacheron-constantin-watches-and-wonders-2025-release
  2. Heading to this event on Saturday https://www.intersectwatchshow.com/ Looks like it’s coming to Austin in November with a slightly different lineup
  3. AirPlay somewhat tethers you to the device, the App doesn’t. The App also used to have capability to build custom playlists across multiple services. Really was handy Also, rumors are swirling of an acquisition
  4. There’s a lot more to the significance of Snoopy on watches, specifically Omega https://monochrome-watches.com/history-snoopy-omega-speedmaster-apollo-13-nasa/ https://stockx.com/news/story-nasa-snoopy-omega/
  5. +$4MM—>$20MM NIL But this is an unproven, risky move. How can it possibly work?
  6. My dad had one, too.
  7. They will need periodic conditioning. New boots out of the box should get a nice treatment regardless. I use Saphir Renovateur. Saphir Crème Universelle is good, too. Bick 4 works, it just won’t last as long IMO* Best way to store them is with trees and shaft shapers. *Oiled leather (Saphir makes a couple) and exotics (Saphir Reptan) need specific conditioners
  8. I spend at least an hour or two a day scouring watch websites, forums, and dealers. I’ve seen no fewer than 1000 DJs in the last year since I got into watches, and I’ve never seen that dial
  9. This is the game that officially broke me. I wasn’t mad, I wasn’t surprised, but I when I have no emotion, I know I am fucking broken. After 40+ years, I am done with Carolina football.
  10. Texas hat arrived today Just in time for a change from the UNC one
  11. I am wrapping up a grad certificate program from McCombs this week. As a long-suffering UNC football fan, can I jump on the Texas bandwagon? I think I’ve endured enough misery over the years. Thanks for your consideration
  12. Didn’t take it that way! Agree with you 100% How do you make a 70-50 loss at home to JMU even more of a disaster? Mack discovered a way
  13. https://247sports.com/college/north-carolina/article/mack-brown-locker-room-address-leaves-program-in-flux-236668870/ Mack Brown Takes Full Blame for UNC's Ugly Loss CHAPEL HILL, N.C. — An emotional coach Mack Brown told the North Carolina football team that he was walking away from the job after the Tar Heels' embarrassing 70-50 loss to James Madison on Saturday at Kenan Stadium, multiple sources close to the situation have told Inside Carolina. Hours later, another source close to the situation emphasized that the 73-year-old College Football Hall of Famer, who long has taken losses hard in their immediate aftermath, isn't resigning or quitting his coaching position. "He will be in the office tomorrow and getting back to work," that source said Saturday night. "Going in and having a normal Sunday." Additional sources close to the situation said that affecting locker room scene has put the program in a state of flux, though, as school administrators weigh their next step. UNC athletic director Bubba Cunningham didn't respond to a request for comment on Saturday night.
  14. I heard this from two Carolina insiders, one I personally know who is well connected, so take that for what it’s worth on a message board (not much). But now I’m hearing Mack walked it back Either way, an absolute shitshow in Chapel Hill
  15. No longer a rumor. Apparently told the locker room after the game
