average looking movements should not have an open caseback

This cartier is one of my favorite watches, but I would much rather have had a solid caseback to engrave something on it. The 1847MC - while it gets the job done - is nothing to write home about in the movement finishing department. While I understand it can be a gateway for new enthusiasts to learn about the complexity of mechanical watches, does a seiko for example, really need an open caseback? I think there should only be an open caseback if a brand puts in the effort to add decorative flourishes..

Grandpa’s Presidential Order of Civil Merit (South Korea)

My grandfather - who passed away recently- was twice awarded South Korea’s Presidential Order of Civil Merit. From what I can gather it’s our country’s equivalent of the US’s Presidential Medal of Freedom. He received the medal for serving as our country’s honorary mayor of Kaesong, a city in North Korea. He was born there but fled south during the war and founded a major plastics manufacturing company. Just wanted to share!

Land Dweller Accuracy

Despite its divisive design the land dweller is THE most accurate watch I own. 1 second deviation from when I first set it a month ago. Looks like the dynapulse escapement is doing its job
