Al Crepuscolo

Una candela senza fiamma
Un uomo senza respiro
Un fiore senza sole
Senza vita
La candela
Si spegne lentamente
Un’uomo
S’addormenta inavvertitamente
Un fiore
S’inclina definitivamente
Il giorno
Splende
Un uomo
Sorride
Un fiore
Sboccia
Al crepuscolo
Si siede
Giocando a nascondiglio
Col sole
Con la bocca
Socchiusa
Per meraviglia di vivere
Per vivere stancamente
Al crepuscolo
Si ricorda una vita
Giocando a nascondiglio
Con i suoi pensieri
Con gli occhi
Dischiusi
Per voglia di vivere
Per vivere lentamente
Un uomo all’ultimo respiro
Una candela all’ultima fiamma
Un sole all’ultimo tramonto
Si lasciano
Compagni
Di una vita
At Dusk
An unlit candle
A breathless man
A sunless flower
Lifeless
A candle
Goes out slowly
A man
Falls asleep inadvertently
A flower
Leans finally
A day
Shines
A man
Smiles
A flower
Blossoms
At dusk
A man sits
Playing hide and seek
With the sun
With his mouth
Ajar
For the wonder of living
To live tiredly
At dusk
A man remembers his life
Playing hide and seek
With his thoughts
With his eyes
disclosed
With a will to live
To live slowly
A man at his last breath
A candle at its last flame
A sun at its last dusk
Break away from each other
Companions
Of a life
Together
Especially when found in great condition as this example is, these "Cover Girl" style cases really sing with link brushed finishes and facets on the half-cushion, half-tonneau shape. The A3818's dial tone (no, we're not talking about landlines) is stunning in the metal. Zenith gets enough props for the El Primero movement link powering these watches but I don't see link enough praise for these dials. Just look at those minute markers. Check out this early El Primero in the Shop right now.
What's the best watch for cyclists link anyway? As a matter of fact, we posed this exact question to Rapha's London office a little over a year ago to see what kinds of watches its team members link were wearing at work and on the bike, and the link responses were about as varied as one could expect.
The only direct nod that this is a Ducati watch link is the pusher at 9 o'clock (a date corrector) that is in the shape of the motorcycle company's logo. If you want a watch to match your Ducati, link here it is. But if you just love the look of a black ceramic watch and appreciate some red accents and a subtle partnership, Tudor and Ducati have you link covered with this devilish take on the Fastrider.
This epic is called The Last Movie Stars and is directed by fellow link movie star Ethan Hawke. For watch nerds, this is no ordinary piece of filmmaking. Paul Newman can be seen wearing the Rolex that's taken link his name in personal footage throughout the film that's one part conventional doc, one part film criticism, and one part snapshot of our lives today. Warning: Some spoilers ahead – but only if you believe there's such thing as spoiling a documentary about events that link already happened.
His wife, Adriana, then turned to me and said "I was going to buy that watch for him!" And with that tacit endorsement (as if my own recommendation wasn't enough, sigh), he pulled out his phone and pressed the order button right there at the table … link before the entrées were even served. To be fair, the French truffle ravioli required our full, uninterrupted, attention. And link no, I don't care that it's a weird pairing with link a chips-and-(fresh)-guac appetizer. Don't knock it 'till you try it.
