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 […]
Zenith Defy Revival A3648: Hands-On With a Cool Retro Watch
Zenith is one of our favorite brands, they strike a perfect balance between excellent in-house watchmaking and striking standout designs – without being ridiculously expensive. The Defy Revival A3648 we have here is a re-issue dive watch from 1969, plucked right out of the Zenith history book. It was a watch known, for its time, […]
2 Week Analysis: The Hublot Classic Fusion Essential Grey
Hublot carries along with it, let’s say, an interesting stigma within the watch collecting community. They’re generally known for creating rather extravagant watches, with designs that veer far away from familiar classic shapes produced by other brands in similar price segments like JLC and Vacheron Constantin. Today we have with us one of their new […]
Exclusive Hands-On with the Norqain Independence Skeleton Chrono 8K Calibre
Just last week I had the chance to visit New York City for the unveiling of Norqain’s Independence Skeleton Chrono powered by the in-house 8K Manufacture Calibre. It was a really great event marked by a special hands-on look at the new releases, and then an eventual presentation at Lightbox NYC. I always forget how […]
Rolex Explorer II Polar Ref. 226570: The Last Luxury Tool Watch
Sitting down and commencing a hands-on review of one of the world’s best and most iconic tool watches from the crown is a daunting task. Plenty of thoughts, memories, and emotions begin to brew, and I find myself wondering which of the most important aspects of the modern Explorer II I should discuss. There’s also […]
Discovering the Bremont Terra Nova Power Reserve on Wrist in the Real World
I walked into the office this morning, and noticed a rather large build up of watches for review, with boxes stacked on-top of each other neatly grazing the wall. An unusual sight for the beginning of summer when watch brands tend to slow down the distribution of review samples. Could there be a reason for […]
Hands On: Rolex Oyster Perpetual 124300 Stella Green
I had quite the wild ride last week, mainly due to receiving the phone call for the Oyster Perpetual Ref. 124300 with the “Stella” green dial in 41mm. I was not really expecting this, and the watch was not on my radar at all, as I already own an older air-king that to me is […]
Hands-On: The German Moon-Phase Glashütte Original PanoMaticLunar
The German watchmaker Glashütte Original has always been known for their more traditional takes on watch designs, and they’ve designed some really neat retro looking watches like their 60s inspired SeaQ dive watch that cater to the dedicated enthusiast market. Today we have with us a watch from their Pano collection, it’s the blue dial […]
Omega Seamaster Diver 300M Summer Blue Review
Today we have with us the Omega Seamaster Diver 300M Summer Blue Edition (Ref. 210.30.42.20.03.003). This watch is so underrated it’s criminal. The Seamster itself is not really underrated, but this summer blue edition certainly is – you kind of need to handle it to figure out why. Unique Shade of Blue I haven’t seen […]
