The Definition of "Weathered"... A True Survivor! There is a certain quiet dignity about that dial.

Distressed Caps, Jeans, Jackets, etc. come into and out of vogue. Are aged dials a new frontier for today's "in touch" watch companies?

Another trend I often wonder about: The Big Watch Era? We're in about year 10 of it, when will someone take a risk and offer smaller watches.

Any thoughts anyone?
