What does it mean when an online tech news website starts reviewing luxury mechanical watches?  0 Comments


 


I just found this webpage on CNET News. A website I regularly read to update myself on all things tech. But when I found this page, it made me pause - only because I was not able to see the connection of luxury independent mechanical watchmaking with new high tech. Is this an expansion of the interest covered by CNET or is this much more important development that needs further consideration? Clearly the atmospheric prices of these luxury rare pieces is going to be of little interest to a rare few regulars of CNET (just note the comments left behind on the page). But it does seem that this page is buried under the category of "Crave" inside CNET. Nevertheless, CNET reaches out to a huge worldwide audience and Vianney's Deep Space Tourbillon - as I mentioned in earlier posts - will touch the techies and especially trekkie techies.

You can tell these trekkie techies at CNET aren't serious watch aficionados. Their by-line called the watch Deep Space 9 Tourbillon. Clearly, the official name sans the 9.
