Is the Omega Seamaster Diver 300 a Tool Watch or a Fashion Watch? WatchGecko 2023-11-09 | Omega's Seamaster Diver 300M Co-Axial Master Chronometer is a stunning watch with robust movement but is it still perceived as a superb tool watch or has it become just a fashion statement... or is it both?

Jean-Claude Bivers INSANE Minute Repeater Watch WatchGecko 2023-11-02 | watchgecko.comFor all your watch needs check out our website!We were enormously privileged to handle a Biver Carillon Tourbillon and find out first-hand for ourselves. Make no mistake: this is at the cutting edge of horology, epitomised by Biver’s description of it as the ‘Everest’ of watchmaking. What you get for $550,000 – with only about 12 watches a year initially planned and no more than around 50 in total scheduled to be made – is a 42mm titanium case and an incredibly complex combination of complications: a carillon repeater, which sounds like a peal of church bells on your wrist thanks to its three hammers, as well as a tourbillon and a micro-rotor for automatic winding; unusual in a watch like this.Products Featured:Biver Carillon TourbillonModel Wrist Size: 6.5 inchLINKS:Website: watchgecko.comBlog: watchgecko.com/blogSOCIAL:Facebook: facebook.com/watchgeckoInstagram: instagram.com/watchgecko
