Crossing the Outback by Train | For more than a hundred years, a top-to-bottom exploration eluded European settlers–until these trails were blazed by John McDouall Stuart and Robert O'Hara Burke. Today’s Ghan train follows Stuart’s lead.

I must go down to the sea again. For the call of the running tide, is a wild call and a clear call that cannot be denied. Etc etc thanks John Masefield.

A brief primer: Since the late nineteen-seventies, most watches have used a quartz movement, which is battery-powered and extremely accurate. Mechanical watches, by contrast, are powered either by hand-winding or, in the case of an automatic watch, by the motion of the wearer’s wrist, which is converted into energy by means of a rotor. Mechanical watches are far less accurate than quartz watches, but often far more expensive, because their bearings are more intricate. All contemporary Rolex watches, for example, are mechanical. The difference between quartz and old-fashioned mechanical is that your child’s Winnie the Pooh watch will likely keep better time than a seventy-six-thousand-dollar Vacheron Constantin perpetual calendar in rose gold. A quick way to tell the two kinds apart is to look at the second hand. On a quartz watch, the second hand goose-steps along one tick at a time; on a mechanical watch, it glides imperfectly, but beautifully, around the dial and into the future.

Our lead designer Hadley has amazing skills in bringing products to life - from the sketchbook to the factory floor. Here's a little before and after of the beautiful engraving on the back of our proposed tribute to Australia's iconic Sydney Opera House - the Opera House watch by Antipodean Designs. We hope to bring these to kickstarter this year.
