It’s #TankTuesday once more & seeing as WeHaveWays are still on the Bulge some personal snaps of the area cc @almurray.bsky.social @historypegg.bsky.social

Folks in the Washington D.C. metro area, the "District Time" watch show is coming up next weekend and the lineup looks stellar if you are an independent/mcrobrand fan! districttime.com?syclid=cv327...

Wilson takes some wonderful shots. We’re lucky to have this kind of talent to showcase in our groups, magazine, and here! Love a good lume shot 😍♥️ #bskywatches #seamaster #showcase

The Tudor Pelagos, in all its glory! I am a huge fan of Tudor. Excited what they roll out this year at Watches and Wonders - last year the BB58 GMT stole the show!

I am fascinated by space exploration and as such I couldn't pass up the opportunity to pick up this Sturmanskie Gagarin Heritage watch. It's bigger than the original that he wore but the colour combination is pretty close. #bskywatches #sturmanskie #gagarin

✨Cette belle Omega De Ville au cadran tapisserie est disponible pour 590€ Boucle originale ! 📩

A little something for #BlueMonday, salute to the French Air Force with one of my FAVORITE pieces! #BlueSkyWatches #BlueMonday #Yema #WatchesofBlueSky #Horology

That's exciting news! Expanding your product range to include kitchenware, furniture, and decor is a great way to offer even more value to your customers.

Inspired by the marque's iconic use of green, the dial is enlivened with iridescent automotive paint, which is applied using an intricate 14-step process. #lifestyle #watches #GirardPerregaux #LaureatoChronograph #astonmartin #Watch

Opened the back of my late grandpa's pocket watch for the first time tonight. https://blog.nytsoi.net/2025/03/02/zenith #PocketWatches #watches #horology

The heart of any timepiece lies in its dial, and the Master Grande Tradition Calibre 948 does not disappoint. The beautifully lacquered and enameled dial is a canvas of artistry. Read more at: buff.ly/3ydQDGV . . . #wristaficionado #watchoftheday #watchesofinstagram #nwa #watchenthusiast #watches

Never selling this one. My lovely mountain glacier Seiko Alpinist. ✨ #seiko #seikoalpinist #wristwatch #watch #watches #japanesewatch #bluedial

I don't really have a "beater" watch, but this is definitely a contender. A lightweight 39mm titanium watch with a solar powered movement, domed sapphire crystal and a solid bracelet. 20bar water resistance. ✨ #citizen #citizenpmd #citizenpmd56 #citizenwatches #watches #wristwatch #watch

Today's watch, the elegant Seiko Presage Style60s on the stock bracelet. #seiko #seikopresage #bluedial #watch #watches #wristwatch

Today’s analogue pairing: An Olympus OM1n and a 1980’s Seiko Speedmaster Chronograph. #BelieveInFilm #Watches #Seiko

We have some talented photographers in our groups on Facebook. While views of Meta are lukewarm at best, we still enjoy the content produced by everyday people who share without expectations. This is just such a photo which we think is excellent! #bskywatches #omegaspeedmaster #bskywatchfam

A question for the #Horology, #Bskywatches, and any other #Watch knowledgeable folks. Can any recommend any either Watch brands or shops in Stockholm or Helsinki? I’ll be heading over there at the end of March and am looking for stores and or micro-brands to visit. Thanks in advance.

Guess what! 🎧🎧 New episode is live. I’ll blast out links tomorrow when it’s daylight on the East Coast. #bskywatches #podcast #community #wristwatches #horology #horologyrepublic

Library. By Alvy Carragher. This hits me where a poem should:)

The folks at #AP have been hard at work--a couple of new Royal Oak models that are...not that interesting to me. These 11.59 watches, however, are what high-horology is all about: simple, beautiful, refined: monochrome-watches.com/2025-new-gre...

It's #TankTuesday once more and today's tank is a pristine German PzKw 38(t) in a wood with its crew and others posing for the photo. Why is this interesting? Because it's not what it seems. Read on… NB Alt text for each photo has a description plus extra detail. 1/

Had a great time chatting with Anita Say Chan about her book, Predatory Data. You'll hear our discussion on an upcoming episode of The Tattooed Historian Show podcast. Want to read the book? Get your open source copy here: www.ucpress.edu/books/predat...

Bought myself a thing. First watch that wasn’t quartz or Apple.

#blueskymonday with the Tudor Black Bay 58 💙

Red Alert! From LVMH Group, #Dior issues it's first watch. Using the #Zenith El Primero chronograph movement, this watch has specs that push back on the fashion brand label. But for the price, I'd buy the Zenith monochrome-watches.com?utm_campaign...

The Nivada Grenchen Datomaster made in collaboration with Wourn & Wound. Technically it is my watch, but my wife wears it every day

Graduation season is coming, and my favorite watch brand, #Nomos, just dropped two versions of the amazing Club Campus: Starlight and Night Sky. The meticulous design, the case, dial and movement quality for $1,500 ($1,800 with display caseback)...Wow! nomos-glashuette.com/en/watches/n...

Here is a Centurion Tank backing in at the Canadian Tank Museum. #CenturianFriday

Today's #wristcheck for me #Nomos Tangente

We're doing integrated sports watches today I guess. #NivadaGrenchen is introducing a 33-piece limited edition of its F77 with a chrysocoll dial--a naturally occurring gemstone that occurs in copper depositis: chronofactum.de/en/product/n...

The Bregeut 5907 in white gold. Can’t believe that I actually get to own a beauty like this one #bskywatches #wristwatch #horology #watchlover #breguet

Founded in 1991, #FranckMuller is a Swiss watch brand known for its avant-garde designs, intricate complications, and distinctive cases. Now you can (for a limited time only) see many of these remarkable timepieces in one place at Les Ambassadeurs: www.lesambassadeurs.ch/en/franck-mu...

Not much #wristwatch news on this snowy New York weekend, so I'm posting this #Kurono chronograph listing on #subdial. Stunning... subdial.com/listing/kuro...

1929(!) Hamilton Spur. Damn. #watches www.ebay.com/itm/25677889...
