We can’t talk about 1/100th of a second chronographs without discussing, of course, the Centigraphe. This is legendary watchmaker François-Paul Journe’s take on a 1/100th of a second chronograph. The issues with a real 50Hz oscillator are both wear a

John Buckley has been selling watches online for almost as long as watches have been on the Internet — he’s even got a Rolex dial named after him. The veteran dealer has seen platforms change over the years, from eBay to forums and now TikTok. Buckle
