Benrus watches has been a bit of a mysterious brand for me. I’ve seen them around, sometimes popping up on my instagram feed, other times being featured on other watch publications. Each time I see a Benrus, it always looks good, they seem to have a nice aura surrounding their watches – and after handling […]

Omega Releases A New Speedmaster Copy of the Daytona Le Mans
I woke up this morning expecting to write about the Benrus DTU Shield, but something sparked a little emotion in me, and I just need to write a little introducing article about it. My inbox was full of Omega press releases announcing the arrival of a new Speedmaster Moonwatch ref. 310.30.42.50.01.004, and our instagram account […]
Experiencing The Nomos Club Sport Neomatik Worldtimer On Wrist
Experiencing a watch to its fullest, such as the new Nomos Club Sport Neomatik Worldtimer, requires a clear mind – and enough time to parse minute details like dial layout, precision during assembly, and wearability. While it may not be an A. Lange & Sohne, or a Patek, it brings to the table its own […]
Tessé Michel GMT: A Glimmer of Canadian Watchmaking Creativity
I have with us today a very neat microbrand watch called the Michel GMT, a new release from Tessé Watches out of Toronto, Canada. I’ve been enjoying this watch both on and off the wrist for about 3 weeks now, and I can confidently say it’s easily my favourite watch model and brand out of […]
Hands-On: The Now Compact Longines Spirit Pilot Flyback 39.5
Longines’ been making some big moves lately. They’ve changed their CEO 3 times in the last 5 years, quite unusual considering Walter von Kanel had been the head of the brand for 32 years, from 1988 to 2020. Clearly Longines is seeking to make some big internal adjustments, and we could just be starting to […]
Hands-On With Doxa’s Very Limited Sub 250 Ahmed Seddiqi Edition
If you’ve ever been to Dubai, you know that looking into the horizon at dusk during the middle of the summer is like staring into a well oxygenated ember. The Doxa Sub 250 that we have here today, emulates this feeling very well with its deep red dial that constantly shifts from rich burgundy red […]
Hands-On With Montblanc’s Iced Sea Automatic Date Diver
What an exciting week it’s been in the watch world, with this weeks release of the new Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean, and Tudor’s new 36mm Ranger in beige and black dials. Today we’re going to be sidestepping away from that, and into the world of Montblanc, with our hands-on review of their stunning, albeit chunky, […]
Handling the King Seiko SPB365 Turtle Shell Motif Dial
It’s the first snow day in Montreal, with two feet of fresh powder that’s accumulated overnight, literally, everywhere – and the only thing on my mind is this incredible brown turtle shell motif dial on the King Seiko SPB365. This is a limited release of 1200 pieces from Seiko, to celebrate their 110th year of […]
The Air-King 126900: Modernization of a Rolex Classic
The Air-King is hands down, one of my favorite watches from Rolex. I’ve owned the ref. 114200 since around 2017, which I bought while visiting Milan in my late 20s. The Air-King has always been a sort of black sheep in the Rolex lineup. It’s not a purely classic Oyster Perpetual, and to me, it’s […]
Hands-On: Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch With Lacquered White Dial
The Omega Speedmaster Professional Moonwatch needs no introduction, it’s been the enthusiasts chronograph of choice for decades. When its competitor, the Rolex Cosmograph Daytona, first launched back in 1963 it flopped, but when the Speedmaster launched and became Nasa’s watch of choice to wear to the moon it flourished. The Moonwatch has been worn by […]
