May I know some affordable tourbillon watch recommendations?
Continue readingWatch Lume and how you charge it.
Nearly all the watches I have without lume now are vintage – 30 years or more old – my dress watch is 1961 even. I do have a modern retro design chrono with blued hands but that is next out the door.
