This week the guys are digging into one of the more pervasive perils of watch collecting out there: watch jargon. All too often we just nod our heads to watch terms that brands and other collectors fling about. So all of us here at TBWS have taken it upon ourselves to start shedding light on those watch terms that we feel all modern, thoughtful, and informed watch enthusiasts should be aware of…. there’s also a fair bit of horological hooliganism in this one. Enjoy!

Watch terms we discuss:

  • Incabloc
  • Co-axial escapement
  • Integrated chronograph
  • Modular chronograph
  • Flyback chronograph
  • Split seconds chronograph/rattrapante
  • Minute repeater
  • Grand complication
  • Tourbillon
  • Ébauche
