A New Must-Have: Rolex Oyster Perpetual Cosmograph Daytona

Rolex Oyster Perpetual Cosmograph Daytona (ref. 116515LN) review

Always thought that only Fender can randomly shuffle decks and necks of radically different classic guitars and get away with that? Think again! At Baselworld 2011 trade show Rolex has updated its Daytona collection with the new Oyster Perpetual Cosmograph Daytona (ref. 116515LN) model that combines their signature Everose-alloy case with a black Cerachrom ceramic bezel. And, yes: thanks to the winning combination of colors and textures, it does look fantastic!

Tissot T-Navigator Automatic Chronograph

Just like their «ordinary» T-Navigator, the 2011 Tissot T-Navigator Automatic Chronograph (ref. T062.427.11.057.00) had great potential to become a gorgeous "aviator" if not that hideous PVD-treated bezel with its "compass" scale that is as crude as it is completely unnecessary both functionally and aesthetically.

Casio G-Shock Go Green GR7900EW-7 with Tough Solar

Casio G-Shock Go Green GR7900EW-7 digital electronic watch

With its recycled paper packaging and the proprietary "Tough Solar" technology that allows the new Casio G-Shock Go Green GR7900EW-7 to work literally for years without the need to change its onboard battery, the electronic gadget looks like a nice choice for environmentally-conscious customers with a taste for an active lifestyle. Perhaps, the only thing that could probably scare them away is white rubberized plastic used for its outer case: it will get dirty in no time and will get only dirtier as the years are passing by.

If you think that Atomic Timekeeping is cool, think again!

Keeping your watch up to date with half a dozen of old-school broadcasting stations is as XXth-century as a gasoline-powered Corvette compared to Tesla Roadster. Fighting the inherent flaws of quartz mechanisms, which, like their older fully mechanical ancestors, can still be heavily affected by such external factors as temperature and sometimes even humidity, Citizen is going to start selling its beautiful limited edition Eco-Drive Satellite Wave (ref. CC0005-06E) that captures the day, date and time signals directly from GPS navigation satellites!

Casio G-Shock GDF100 with Altimeter

Casio G-Shock GDF100 with Altimeter digital electronic watch

The 2011 Casio G-Shock GDF 100 comes equipped with a two-in-one front-facing pressure and temperature sensor. Although its exterior styling is light years away from something that is usually associated with a 'pilot's watch', it is (rather unsurprisingly, I would say) also way more usable for those who actually fly something more powerful than an office chair. People who prefer an active lifestyle will probably like one, too.

Casio has revealed its digital Men In Dark Purple (MIDP) GF-1000BP-1DR Frogman that will go on sale in April 2011. As huge as the national debt of the United States, the new device is designed with the kind of people in mind who prefer a Kawasaki Ninja to a Nissan Micra as the main means of transportation.
