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 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 […]

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 […]

Swan & Edgar Horizon Review: Steeped in British Coastal History
There’s few things that get us more excited than the combination of a microbrand and authentic British history, cue the new Swan & Edgar Horizon – a watch that’s been assembled in Maidenhead UK by well known Horologium and utilizing a Japanese Miyota 9015 movement. As someone who’s lived in London for over 5 years […]
Hands-On: The New Unimatic ProDiver Modello Uno U1-PD3-B
Unimatic has a been a relatively illusive brand for us here on the WRB. I’ve reached out to them before, requesting to review and handle various new releases from them without luck. It wasn’t until just a few weeks ago that I finally made contact with their PR department, and actually this time they had […]
Anicorn Cassini Nemesis: A Middle of the Summer Review
Well, when I made this article’s title it was the middle of the summer, but as you know, with two kids and time running short the creation of this review was postponed a couple weeks. So perhaps now, we’ve crossed the rubicon into what many would consider the “beginning of the end of the summer”. […]
