Casio Deep Dive: An Ode to the Classics

April 1, 2025 by Ulises Valenzuela Leave a Comment

In the golden days of the 90’s, Casio watches were all the rage among elementary school kids. One watch towered above the rest, though: the mighty F-91W. Its slim profile, along with its everlasting battery life made it a mandatory element of the everyday-carry for lots of people back then. Of course, this was before […]

Bremont Maya and Lady K Jade Watches Review

January 4, 2024 by Ulises Valenzuela Leave a Comment

It’s a chilly November night and a box has just arrived on my doorstep. As I unpack the contents on the dinner table, I’m pleased to see Bremont has sent over two ladies’ watches. My wife takes a suspicious glance at the table and asks if I’m going to actually wear them. Well, this time […]

Undone Vintage Killy Watch Review

December 6, 2023 by Ulises Valenzuela Leave a Comment

Modern life in a free market is both a blessing and a curse. Endless entertainment options and lifestyle choices overwhelm the senses, inducing paralysis by analysis in all but the strongest (or perhaps, the most collected) psyches. It would seem the only way to avoid falling down the rabbit hole is to have a clear […]

Praesidus Jungle Field Watch Review

October 25, 2023 by Ulises Valenzuela Leave a Comment

I have a confession to make. For all my love for old-fashioned technology like the one powering our watches, I’m a smartphone enthusiast too (not for timekeeping purposes, mind you). Ever since the golden days of Android Éclair, Froyo and Gingerbread, I’ve obsessed about specs, display technologies, kernels, and ROMs. I’ve followed the smartphone industry […]

A Monday Night With Three Hamilton Khaki Watches

June 14, 2023 by Ulises Valenzuela 2 Comments

It’s late Monday evening and I’m enjoying a cup of coffee at my brother-in-law’s dinner table. As an experienced connoisseur, Eduardo patiently tries to instill in me the joys of coffee brewing. Multiple coffee bags come out of his cupboard, each one more sophisticated than the last. A digital scale ensures the exact weight of […]

Lorier Neptune Series IV Watch Review

January 8, 2023 by Ulises Valenzuela Leave a Comment

Well, this is awkward. A year ago, I had the pleasure of reviewing the Lorier Neptune Series III, and one of my final thoughts was “if the Ortegas ever release a 38mm Neptune with a date window, my Omega Seamaster will be in serious trouble”. The latest Series IV Neptune isn’t 38mm, but a full […]

Lorier Neptune SIII Watch Review

January 4, 2022 by Ulises Valenzuela 2 Comments

You probably know their story by now. Former school teachers and watch aficionados Lorenzo and Lauren Ortega decided to call it quits on their careers and dive head-first into the scary world of microbrands, creating some of the most acclaimed and accessible timepieces of the last five years. Released in 2018, the first generation Lorier […]

Bravur BW003 Watch Review

January 11, 2021 by Ulises Valenzuela Leave a Comment

It is always a delight to find new and interesting brands in the horology landscape, even more so when they provide real value by taking care of the small details while manifesting a strong personality of their own. Today I have the pleasure of examining the midnight blue variant of the BW003, released in 2017 […]

Nomos Glashütte Tangomat GMT Watch Review

October 23, 2020 by Ulises Valenzuela Leave a Comment

When I started my journey into horology some five years ago, my immediate impulse was to cover all styles: multiple divers, a nice chronograph, a field watch, the occasional quartz movement…  In the dress watch department, Nomos Glashütte prominently stood out as a solid choice due to its minimal designs and outstanding movements. I had […]

Longines Heritage Classic Sector Dial Watch Review

September 21, 2020 by Ulises Valenzuela Leave a Comment

As a little kid, I was a bit, ahem, obsessed with cars. Glancing out the window from the backseat of my parents’ car, I used to mentally recite the model, brand, and year of every vehicle we passed by on the streets. Now, as a well-adjusted adult just mildly enthusiastic about watches and operating systems, […]
