Not too long ago Hanhart announced the release of their first ever dive watch, the Aquasphere Freefall exclusively in blue with a 42mm case. This was quite the surprise, seeing that most of the watches we’ve ever reviewed from the renowned German watchmaker have been pilot inspired designs like this Primus Nautic and this S-Series […]
Detrash Watches: Hands-On with a Recycled Watch you Probably Want
Welcome to 2025 guys! We ended 2024 by reviewing the highly sought after Rolex GMT-Master II Pepsi, but we’re starting this new year by going hands on with a rather peculiar pick.

Hands-On with the Doxa Sub 200T: An Updated Icon
It’s the end of the summer over here in Montreal, and today I had the chance to scour through some of the remaining sample watches I received and hadn’t completed reviews for. In-between a couple family vacations and the rush of maintaining fourth quarter stock levels for WATCHPOD, I managed to let the new Doxa […]
Red Bull Cliff Diving World Series with the Mido Ocean Star Tribute
What better way to test the Mido Ocean Star Tribute than diving off of a 27 meter cliff? Just kidding, I did not jump off a professional diving cliff, nor did any of the athletes wear watches while diving. What I did do though, was watch this years 2024 Red Bull Cliff Diving World Series […]
Decompressing with the Updated 1961 Rainbow Diver from Mido
Mido has great timing with the release of their limited or special edition runs of the 1961 Decompression Timer. They always seem to time it for the dead center of summer, this time of course being more towards the end but still pretty close. We reviewed their previous launch of the 1961 in the summer […]
Hands-On: Seiko Prospex Marinemaster 1965 Ref. SJE099
Seiko never ceases to amaze me, and there’s good reason why they’ve built up such a substantial following of watch enthusiast, and even some who enjoy solely collecting Seiko. Today I have the pleasure of going hands-on with their Marinemaster 1965 Ref. SJE099 which is the lovely light blue dial and dark navy blue bezel […]

Mido has been making headwinds lately with popular releases such as the Ocean Star Decompression World Timer, and their recently released Multifort TV Big Date. High profile releases like these ones are starting to bring some much needed attention to their bread and butter offerings like their new Ocean Star GMT we’re reviewing today. Where […]
Startup Diver Concept: The Nove Marine M001-07
As a watch reviewer and industry journalist for many years now, it’s become customary for me to be curious but at times apprehensive about reviewing a new watch from a relatively unknown startup brand. While some watch publication outlets are currently reviewing their 300th Speedmaster, today on the WRB we’re going hands on with the […]
On-Wrist with the Oris Aquis Date Upcycle
Oris is certainly one of my favorite accessible Swiss watch brands. Like many of you, I also appreciate a watch brand that not only has a solid heritage and reputation, but a brand that has remained independent throughout all these years. The new Aquis Date that we’re reviewing here is a culmination of the above, […]
Yema Superman Slim: Hands-On with a Classy Diver
Yema is a relatively low key brand in the world of watches, although they’ve been around since 1948 they’ve gone through a series of ownership changes with the most recent notable acquisition by French group Montres Ambre in 2009. Today we have the pleasure to handle and review their new and stunning Superman Slim, a […]
