We look at a lot of pretty pictures on the Internet every day. Most of them are related to cool products, and we share the good ones with you. The Shinola Runwell Watch came way out of left field. Right off the bat, there is absolutely nothing about this watch that we don’t like. The leather strap is premium Horween. The watch itself is made completely of Swiss-made parts from Ronda AG. Those parts all get shipped to the Motor City where nearly four dozen get hand assembled to become the quartz Argonite 1069 powertrain of the watch. It comes in 40mm and 47mm sizes, and each size is limited to a production run of 1,500 and 1,000, respectively. Personally, we think it looks like the horological love child of a fighter plane instrument panel clock and late-60s fastback style gauge cluster. Pretty fitting for a watch from Detroit.
