Aviation and space exploration have long been the stuff dreams are made of, and even in the modern age of regular commuter flights, automated drones, supersonic jet fighters and impending commercial space travel, man’s ascent into the heavens still captivates the imagination. Of course, nautical feats aren’t the only ones to capture the attention of watch enthusiasts there is also the sky and the stars. These are the stories that sell Submariners and Seamasters by the truckload. This is why feats of human endurance for which our timepieces have been present and have withstood (even if they aren’t our specific timepieces, or our personal feats of endurance) mean so much to us.

As passionate purveyors of obsolete timekeeping technology, it is simply in our nature to put a value on the history of our prized mechanical watches as well as the quality and craftsmanship behind them. All watch enthusiasts appreciate a storied timepiece.
