P.S. I took this picture (cover picture) from the Mount of Olives back in 2016. While we were there, I got to teach the small group I was with the Olivet Discourse while we sat at the top. Very cool experience.
As much as Rich might link want it, a HODINKEE vintage collection can never start and end with Rolex. Saori adds some variety with a stainless steel, limited edition of 50 pieces, time-only Audemars Piguet from link the 1990s – bet you didn't have that link on your H Shop bingo card! Other off-the-beaten-track standouts include a Longines Nonius Chronograph, a Lemania Single-Button Chronograph for the South African Air Force, and a classic Heuer "Siffert" Autavia.
On wrist, the Supernova's bracelet is chunky and robust, but not in any sort of way that messes with the overall balance of the watch on your wrist. Yes, it's a rather heavy package, but it wraps well and sits far better than I expected. While I'm speaking from a bias link for my own wrist, I'd love to see how a ~37mm version would link wear. I enjoy integrated bracelet designs but find they suit my wrist best when they are of a smaller link size than what I might prefer for a watch with conventional lugs.
thank you Pete. Everyone needs R+ R.
