For the better part of a century, certain watches have been built entirely with a single sport in mind. The Rolex Daytona and TAG Heuer Monaco were named after racetracks first and cities second.

Szanto 6200 Series Officer’s Coin Cushion Watch Review
If you’re buying an automatic watch, the most important things to consider are usually its look, feel, and mechanical movement. Let’s be honest.

Ciga Design J Series Watch Review
If you’re a regular reader of the watch review blog, you know I generally stick with watchmakers that have at least some sort of reputation. Either they’re Swiss, German, or Japanese and have some kind of track record in the marketplace. At first glance, Ciga Design might seem like an odd choice. As I hope […]
