Since the advent of the wristwatch industry, certain watches have transcended the aesthetic sensibilities of their time, having been envisioned to be worn for decades all the way back from the drawing board. The Rolex Datejust, and later the Rolex Day Date, are clear examples of this, and have spawned a plethora of both ill-fated […]
Circula Heritage Automatic Watch Review
I was delighted when Matt reached out to me and said that he might have a review model for me from a brand that I’ve kept a close eye on over the last few months, a micro brand from Germany called Circula. So I gleefully accepted his offer and Cornelius from Circula was happy to […]
NOMOS Glashütte Orion 38 White Review
Holding a NOMOS Glashütte watch in real life for the first time can be an odd experience. I remember years ago before I’d ever had the pleasure, I didn’t find myself too enamoured of the brand. I found it a bit too clean, a bit too plain, a bit, if I’m honest, boring. Then my […]
Mido Baroncelli Midnight Blue Gent M8600.4.15.1 Watch Review
When you’ve been as lucky to travel the world as I have, you realize just how region-specific certain brands and their level of success are. Where I’m from, in Manchester, England, Mido is basically non-existent. With just three official dealers in the UK (compared to 67 in the USA), the brand barely registers on the […]
Vapaus Velie 1950 Slate Grey Watch Review
Vapaus is an independent watch company based on British soil. Owned by brothers Oliver and Rudi, they started the company with the aim to craft beautifully, vintage-inspired watches, and they did so with the Veli 1950 Slate Grey. If they were aiming to leave a legacy that can only be matched by brands such as […]
Raymond & Pearl Horizon Quartz Watch Review
When it comes to affordable Swiss-made watch brands, you probably have a level of perception of reliability, precision and good construction in mind which are all good qualities. Asides from these, there are other perceptions about Swiss-made watches which tend to generate some mixed feelings such as an impression of elitism, really high mark-ups, and […]
Melbourne Watch Company Flinders Automatic Review

It’s a very versatile watch with a bit of dress and sports features, legibility at its peak and controlled elegance, making it a fit for almost all outfits and occasions.

Mido Baroncelli Heritage Review: A Tale of Three Watches
As part of the Swatch Group, Mido is a guarantee of Swiss quality and craftsmanship. Though it might not be a readily recognizable brand in the USA, it nevertheless has thrived in the Latin American market, where it has had a strong presence since the 80s, even among people not very much into the hobby […]
Rodina R005 Bauhaus Watch Review
Inspired by the straightforward classic Nomos Tangente, Rodina R005 aims to relive Bauhaus style and quality craftsmanship at a very accessible price. And, judging by the response from its vast following, the otherwise little-known watchmaker has done an exceptional job at paying homage to the German classic. From its solid automatic movement all the way […]
Mido Dorada M0096101603120 Watch Review
Let’s not deceive ourselves. Mido’s Dorada collection isn’t exactly an incarnation of originality and innovation. Unfortunately, the M0096101603120 is no exception. But, and it’s a big but, it would be wrong to say that this piece doesn’t provide excellent value for money. On the contrary, it’s the traditional, timeless watchmaking that has kept Mido in […]
