Hamilton Pan Europ Chronograph H35716545

Hamilton Pan Europ (ref. H35716545)

First officially revealed at Baselworld 2011, the new Hamilton Pan Europ (ref. H35716545) chronograph is a tribute to the 1971 model that was issued under the same name. No wonder why its total production run is limited to only 1971 pieces. Comparing photos of the re-issue (below) and the original from the 1970s (can't reproduce for copyright reasons, sorry, but you can easily google one) I can see that the new timekeeper is an almost exact reproduction of the 1971 model.

Always thought that only Fender can randomly shuffle decks and necks of radically different classic guitars and get away with that? Think again!

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.

Hold the Light: Ball Storm Chaser DLC Glow

Ball Watch Storm Chaser DLC Glow (ref. CM2192C-P1J-BK) automatic chronograph watch

The 2011 Ball Storm Chaser DLC Glow Chronograph (ref. CM2192C-P1J-BK) may be the answer for those looking for a watch that glows, um, all night long. Even if it is an endless, life-draining polar night, you will never have to worry about your beloved timekeeper losing its brightness: the mildly radioactive gas that is stored inside its micro-tube will have enough own energy to keep glowing for ages.
