I’ve never reviewed a Doxa watch before on the WRB, but the brand has been around for a long time. Doxa is a Swiss watchmaker, founded by a man named Georges Ducommun. The 1800s were a time with no child labor laws, and Ducommun took an apprenticeship with a watchmaker in the year 1880 at […]
Longines Record Automatic Chronograph L2.921.4.56.2 Watch Review
A mechanical watch – even an inaccurate one – is a work of art. That’s why people pay hundreds or thousands of dollars for a watch that’s less accurate than a cheap Casio watch from Walmart. At the same time, is it really too much to ask not to have to reset the time once […]
Nomos Club Sport Neomatik Polar & 42 Date Blue Watch Review
The Nomos Club is one of the most prestigious watch lines out there. It’s also one of the most numerous in terms of options. The line has traditionally included watches in 36mm, 38mm, 41.5mm, and 42mm. It ranges from a minimalist everyday watch to heavy-duty dive-rated versions. Last October, Nomos released two more variants of […]
Lorier Neptune Series IV Watch Review
Well, this is awkward. A year ago, I had the pleasure of reviewing the Lorier Neptune Series III, and one of my final thoughts was “if the Ortegas ever release a 38mm Neptune with a date window, my Omega Seamaster will be in serious trouble”. The latest Series IV Neptune isn’t 38mm, but a full […]
KNOPF NY-405 Black Steel Introduction and Review
Not all of the best watches come from established watchmakers. Some come from companies who are just cutting their teeth in the business, and every once in a while I like to sample one of these microbrands. KNOPF Watches is a brand new company, founded in Manhattan by Gage and Larry Knopf. The father and […]
Tissot PRX Powermatic 80 Watch Review
Tissot is well-known for pushing the boundaries of watchmaking. Perhaps nowhere is this more evident than with their PRX collection of watches. These watches have a power reserve of 80 hours – almost double the typical mechanical movement. If you only wear your watch a couple of times a week, that’s excellent news. I recently […]
Hamilton Murph 38mm Interstellar Khaki Field Watch Review
I usually spend a lot longer than a few days with a watch before I review it, but after spending just a few days with the new Hamilton Murph Watch in the small 38mm sizing from the Interstellar movie there’s just so much to be said. This is a highly anticipated release from Hamilton, they […]
Atowak Cobra Watch Review
Regular readers will know that I have a soft spot for newer watchmakers. Established brands are established brands for a reason. They have a proven track record and years of experience in the industry. But they also tend to get conservative in their old age, and release endless cycles of throwbacks and anniversary editions of […]
Mido Ocean Star 20th Anniversary Inspired by Architecture Watch Review
It’s been 20 years since Mido released a five lines of watches recognizing major architectural monuments. For 2022, they’re releasing a series of limited edition watches to celebrate the anniversary. Earlier this year, they released the All Dial 20th Anniversary Limited Edition, which commemorated the Roman Colosseum. They followed that up with the Baroncelli Signature […]
Ciga Design Series U Blue Planet Watch Review
If you know me, you know I love microbrands. Established watch manufacturers can put out some gorgeous timepieces. If you’ve ever held a Audemars Piguet, you know how fine the craftsmanship is. But old-school watchmakers tend to fall into established patterns. They have a certain vision of what a watch should be, and that’s what […]
