Shinola updates the classic Runwell with automatic movement

NEWS – Shinola, Detroit’s darling that produces high-quality watches, bicycles, audio gear, leather goods, and jewelry is updating their flagship Runwell watch line with the new Runwell Automatic.

Automatic watches have a rotating weight inside the caseback.  As you wear the watch, the movement of your arm causes the weight to rotate, winding the watch.  There are no batteries. You can also wind the stem, like a traditional mechanical watch if you don’t wear it for a day or two.

This is my well-worn 41mm Shinola Runwell.

The new automatic Runwell will be larger, at 45mm.

Shinola worked hard designing the Runwell Automatic, updating it slightly, while staying true to the original Runwell design.

The addition of the exhibition caseback showcases the automatic movement through a sapphire window.

 

This isn’t Shinola’s first automatic.  Last year’s Monster series featured the company’s initial automatic movement in a diver-style watch. The Runwell Automatic is a return to the company’s design roots.

Pricing and availability have not yet been announced. To read more about the Runwell Automatic watch, and to join the waitlist for updates, visit the Runwell Automatic story or Shinola.com.

The Silk Magnetic Cable Wrangler is attracted to your charging cables

NEWS – I just can’t help myself. I’m drawn to cable organizers like the Cable Wrangler (see what I did there?) by Silk, a company based in Austin, TX. Silk describes themselves as a “jaunty, down-to-earth, and highly-caffeinated group of folks that, since 2009, have taken our products seriously, but ourselves … not so much” (Silk website).

The Cable Wrangler is a simple device that measures 3.24″ x 3.24″ or 82 mm x 82 mm and uses magnets to keep your charging cables organized on your desk or nightstand. It works with all cables and if the cable is not “attractive enough, use included magnetic collars to boost its Tinder rating” (Silk). It has a “hefty grip that won’t slip” (perhaps a silicone base) and comes with a lifetime warranty – “No commitment issues here” (Silk). These guys are funny! The Silk Magnetic Cable Wrangler – which includes three magnetic collars – comes in two colors, No. 2 Pencil Gray and Lightly Toasted Beige, and is available from Amazon for $19.99.

Scissors are the main focus of SOG’s Snippet multi-tool

NEWS – If you carry a multi-tool, you know how the scissors feature seems to be an after-thought because they can be tiny and awkward to use. But that’s not the case with the SOG Snippet multi-tool. The scissors in this EDC multi-tool are the main featured tool.




There are even finger loops to make the scissors as close to a traditional pair of scissors as you can get in folding multi-tool design.

Offering 7 tools in 1 pocket-friendly sized tool, the stainless steel SOG Snippet also has a knife, a screwdriver, a nail file, a toothpick, a set of tweezers, and a bottle opener. It’s priced at $27.95 it’s available now from SOG.

Check out the Thirteener, Saddleback Leather’s thinnest briefcase yet!

NEWS – Spring is bringing all sorts of new designs from Saddleback Leather! Meet the Thirteener, which looks like their leanest & meanest briefcase design yet!

This design takes some of the best elements of previous Saddleback briefcase designs, presented in a tightly streamlined package. Measuring in at 14.25″ by 10″ by 2.5″ and 4 pounds, the size of the Thirteener looks ideal for office use at a reasonable carry weight. You’ve got a main compartment that includes a laptop divider and a false bottom flap to hide cash or documents. The front pocket has 2 sub-pockets to help sort out your electronic goodies, and the bag has a rear pocket for documents or quick grab items. And there’s a key leash. All the essential elements are represented!

What’s really interesting about this design is that you won’t find any D-ring attachment points or external pouches here, so it’s a might more dressed up for office use without losing that rugged go-anywhere vibe that Saddleback is known for.

I’ve been a fan of Saddleback’s new, simpler design language and this looks like another great design. This one retails for $349. Check it out at the Saddleback Leather Web Site!
