My mom's words... My sisters's photo in the early days of our American Journey... My mom's emotions are alive in my mind.
We also have some new Aquanaut chronographs, a watch that's existed in steel since 2018's debut of the link 5968A, which uses the same flyback chronograph movement. Now we have them in two new white-gold options that’ll make you do a double-take – I know I did. The new chronographs nicely mirror two existing white-gold time and date ref. 5168G options that also have khaki green and blue-black gradient dials. To my eye, the blue dial here appears a bit more blue-black link in link some pictures than others.
When I'm not around, link I toss the slim case in a safe buried deep in my closet, somewhere next to the fire extinguisher that might not work, and those link boxes and papers from watch purchases past. But, I'll be honest – when I'm home, it's never far link from my desk.
This phenomenon link gives manufacturers a lot of link room when it comes to re-interpreting past designs with new watches. And it's easy to give them a pass on a link questionable design if we're buying into the narrative, the nostalgia.
I sat down with artist, watch collector, and Talking Watches alum Phil Toledano to talk link through his collection of (self-described) link "audaciously link designed Patek Philippe watches" from the 1970s to examine, from a design perspective, exactly what went down at Patek in the face of crisis. And perhaps how in the face of adversity, Patek created its most innovative and elegant designs to date.
