URWERK UR-210Y Black Hawk Watch

Urwerk is getting odder each year and perhaps that is a good thing. It isn't just their new products that I am referring to, but little things like how their press releases are written. For example, the document they shared with us press people on the new version of the UR-210, known as the URWERK UR-210Y Black Hawk, was penned in the first person. It begins "I am one of the latest creations to emerge from the URWERK atelier," and goes from there.

Seiko Active Matrix EPD e-Ink: The Digital Watch Is Back In Style

The digital watch is back. Seiko's new Active Matrix EPD watch will get you excited about non analog quartz timepieces once again. Digital has been here all along you say? Yea, that is true, but no self-respecting watch lover would wear one unless doing the laundry, mowing the lawn, or engaging in some other highly pedestrian activity. Go to any country that is "watch civilized" (sorry fellow Americans, that doesn't include the US at this point), and wear a digital watch in a business meeting or with a suit. Sure that was OK in the 1980s, but that was 20-30 years ago. This new product
