Earlier this year, all I was ever hearing about was sand dials. First, Tudor and Rolex released dune, and beige inspired dials for their GADA watches, the Ranger and the Oyster Perpetual. Both of which I’ve handled and experienced on wist, subsequently adding myself to the wait list for the latter. Then the more niche […]
Hands-On: The Seiko Speedtimer Refresh and Its New Salmon Dial
The Seiko Speedtimer has had a massive surge in popularity in recent years, especially with the now outgoing panda dial model ref. SSC813. This is a watch that’s gone through a nice evolution of adjustments over the years, in terms of its overall design language and wearability as a chronograph. At the beginning of this […]
The Unimatic Modello Tre U3FB-ROPS: A Dark DLC Chronograph
My introducing article on the Unimatic Modello Tre U3FB-ROPS just so happens to be my last article for Forbes, and I’m excited to now allocate that open void of time to more content right here on the WRB. Additionally, I’ve had this watch in the studio for over 1 month now, and I think it’s […]
Hands-On With Unimatic’s New Modello Uno U1S-PD6
Just a while back I reviewed Unimatic’s ProDiver Modello Uno U1-PD3-B, and today we’re going to be taking a look at the newly released Modello Uno U1S-PD6. This new release isn’t so far off from the rest of their Modello Uno range, so if you want further feedback on this line of watches from them, […]
Rolex Land-Dweller 36mm 127234: Hands-On With Acquisition Story
Before leaving for my trip to Barbados with the Doxa Army a few weeks ago, I had a strange inkling that I might “get the call” for the Rolex Land-Dweller 36mm. At this point, I had been waiting about 9 months, as I had expressed my interest right on release day back in April 2025. […]
The Doxa Army in Barbados: Exploring Underwater and Above
It may be of no surprise, that after a few months of winter, many of us over here in the north crave a tropical escape. With this in mind, a mid-winter getaway was booked to the Caribbean island of Barbados. Doxa was kind enough to lend me their very cool and military inspired Doxa Army, […]
The Seiko SRPK29: A Personal Hands-On Review
As any watch enthusiast can tell you, there are some timepieces that are such a ridiculously good deal that you can’t possibly pass them up. The Seiko SKX line of years past is a prime example, and a rite of passage for many a watch collector. I had the pleasure of owning the SKX013 some […]
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 […]
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 […]
