Everyone loves a good Speedy, but not everyone has the wrist for the original iconic Speedmaster Moonwatch Professional, that’s only available in 42mm. Omega has always had our backs though, by offering what originally was known as the Speedmaster Reduced, launched back in 1988 with reference ST 375.0032. This eventually morphed into the Speedmaster 38 […]
Hands-On: The Rado Anatom Skeleton With Wondrous Ergonomics
It’s a rainy autumn day over here in Montreal, and after a few challenging days with the kids at home, I’m finally getting some time to put my thoughts down in writing with a clear mind, about my experience with the fantastic Rado Anatom Skeleton. I managed to enjoy about three weeks with this watch, […]
An El Primero 3600 Dream: The Zenith Defy Skyline Chronograph
It’s not often that I refer to a watch, or its movement, as a dream, but in the case of the Zenith Defy Skyline Chronograph, that’s the overall feeling I’m left with after spending nearly 3 weeks with it. This particular fully black ceramic variant, ref. 49.9500.3600/21.I001, launched at LVMH Watch Week on January 19, […]
Hands-On: The Longines Master Collection Chrono Moonphase
Today we’re reviewing the new Longines Chrono Moonphase, part of the newly revamped Master Collection that’s stirred up quite a tussle online. This has always been, and still is, Longines’ most complex regular production watch, due to the functions offered by the automatic Calibre L687.5. Sit back and pour yourself a coffee, or if it’s […]
Hands-On: Nomos Releases Their Sand Dial for The Ahoi Neomatik 36
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 […]
The Tissot Visodate 39mm Nears Affordable Horological Perfection
It’s a been a significant amount of time since we’ve sat down and spent some time with a Tissot for the purpose of a hands-on review. The last one being the PRX Powermatic 80, that happened to be a huge release for the brand, and is now subject to very positive memes when in comparison […]
The Praesidus A-11 Utah Beach: Hands-On Review
There are watches with hand carved dials, some with mechanical mastery like tourbillons, and then there are some watches with real Utah Beach sand sandwiched inside their dials, like the Praesidus A-11 Utah Beach we’re reviewing today. Praesidus is really building a name for itself as one of the leaders in heritage driven field watches, […]
Hands-On: The Longines Legend Diver 39, A Modern Icon
Not too long ago I wrote about the newly introduced, and larger, Longines Legend Diver 59 with a 42mm case size. While there were some interesting tweaks to the dial, the overall concept was a letdown for me, which in turn sparked a greater appreciation for what I now believe is the optimal modern Legend […]

Yema is currently making some of the most exciting watches in the entry level luxury tier. Today they’ve just released the Granvelle Renaissance CMM.29, which we’ve secretly had on hand with us for the past 3 weeks. They’ve boxed themselves into a very compelling niche with this watch, I’d describe it as an offering in […]

Welcome back to another week at the WRB. Today we’re going to be focusing on the world of microbrand watches, more specifically a brand new startup out of Canada called Acizem Watches.
