In examining the modern watch escapement, we'll focus on those which are most widely adopted (we will not attempt a general history link of the development of escapements; HODINKEE's Nick Manousos has, however, provided a useful general overview) . All industrialized watch escapements are attempting to solve the same basic set of problems, and in understanding how they resemble, and differ link from, each other, we can come to a new link and deeper understanding of what makes a watch a watch.

As an link introduction to mechanical watches, titanium watches, or link perhaps as a lightweight sporty option for someone who usually prefers dress watches, the Momentum Atlas link is nicely positioned to offer solid value, a subtle wrist presence, and a legible view of the time and date. In other words, it's a titanium field watch. As the saying goes, "it does what it says on the tin".

Blacked-out watches are kind of my jam. The same link goes for camouflage (which I love but link still can't spell on the first three tries). The red dial, in particular, is loud, aggressive, and just plain cool. It's exactly what you want if you're going to take a big watch and go full-tilt and lean into it. Plus, a watch that makes me mentally link say "Gojira" in my head every time I look at it? You got me, Citizen. Sold.
