The Seiko Speedtimer has had a massive surge in popularity in recent years, especially with the now outgoing panda dial model ref. SSC813.

The Alpiner Extreme Solarmetre: Alpina’s First Solar Watch
Today we have a hands-on review that’s going to be focusing on a solar powered watch from Alpina, called the Alpiner Extreme Solarmetre. Admittedly, and it’s not really a secret of mine, but I’m not overly enthusiastic when it comes to quartz watches, or solar powered movements. Sure, they’re extremely efficient, accurate, and the technicalities […]
The Unimatic Modello Tre U3FB-ROPS: A Dark DLC Chronograph
My introducing article on the Unimatic Modello Tre U3FB-ROPS just so happens to be my last article for Forbes, and I’m excited to now allocate that open void of time to more content right here on the WRB. Additionally, I’ve had this watch in the studio for over 1 month now, and I think it’s […]
Hands-On With the 4.9mm Thick Undone Slim
Slimming down a watch, or creating a new watch from scratch with a thin case, has always been one of the most important challenges in watchmaking. From high horology mechanical watches like the Bulgari Octo Finissimo that utilizes a micro-rotor, to quartz watches like the new Undone Slim we have here today, no matter what […]
The Vaer DS2 Arctic: An Affordable No-Frills Quartz Diver
Today I’m taking a hands-on look at the Vaer DS2 Arctic, an affordable quartz diver with a bare bones demeanour that’s meant for actual diving use with its 150 meter water resistance, and the occasional after-dive seaside dining. We don’t tend to feature too many quartz watches here on the WRB, with our last one […]
Hands-On with the Jung J43C-01 Chronograph: Inspired by French Car Design
As a watch reviewer, there’s nothing like going hands-on with a new microbrand offering. Sure, Rolex, Omega, Seiko and many other big names make exciting watches with excellent craftsmanship, but their core DNA evolves slowly. Today we have the pleasure of inspecting and experiencing the Jung J43C-01 chronograph with the black dial, which is designed […]
Hands-On with the Timex x Pan Am Fly Back Chronograph
Traditionally, for us over here at the WRB, October has always been a hectic month. We have logistics issues to deal with for our WATCHPOD accessories brand, and we usually have an influx of watches to review as well. Add a couple seasonal viruses into the mix, as well as an increase in topics to […]
Hands-On with the Tough G-Shock Rangeman GPRH-1000 Master of G
I’m really starting to become a G-Shock believer. Ever since my purchase of the GWM5610-1 Solar Atomic I’ve been really surprised how often I wear it and how useful it’s become as a simple no hassle daily wear watch. Well, today we’re going to be reviewing the new Rangeman GPRH1000-9 from the Master of G […]
Undone Vintage Killy Watch Review
Modern life in a free market is both a blessing and a curse. Endless entertainment options and lifestyle choices overwhelm the senses, inducing paralysis by analysis in all but the strongest (or perhaps, the most collected) psyches. It would seem the only way to avoid falling down the rabbit hole is to have a clear […]
