In other words, its Blancpain’s most recent attempt to milk their main profit engine. The Shakespearean schtick – releasing releases in “Acts” – is, as the Brits say, too clever by half.

A bourbon-themed collaboration between a Japanese watch maker and a Kentucky sneaker boutique? Totally makes sense! Bourbon and time have an important relationship. But first, let’s go back to 1981….

It isn’t, if we’re talking about price. The timepiece runs $300 on Braun’s website, but you can pick it up at Amazon for $136 (no commission on links). What the Braun BN0172 Classic offers is actually quite rare in the horologsphere: an unmistakably prominent second hand. […]
