Mechanical watches
Mechanical watches are sprouting like mushrooms, everyone is hopping on the bandwagon. Who could have thought of this, a real mechanical watch renaissance? Pictured are a few examples. It’s a shame the Aeromatic comes pre-aged, I hate this. The Van der Gang is a relatively new Dutch watch brand, inside is the venerable Valjoux workhorse. The SS case is treated with a special coating, giving it 73 Rockwell hardness. Crystal double coated, almost invisible.

I like the top one, alot It, somehow, reminds me of a Chrono Swiss Mechanicals are making a comeback. I see more and more people interested in watches nowadays. I also noticed several brands of less expensive mechanicals being carried at different jewelers I frequent.

I agree, the top one is a beauty. The bottom one is a looker too.

The top one is nice... reminds me of Sinn... but the bottom one... WOW! Very nice (and I don't like chronos). Maybe it's the blue hands on the white dial complete with a blue gator strap.
