Owner review: Cartier Tank Louis Cartier
Cartier being first and foremost a jeweller, the Cartier Tank Louis Cartier was essentially a canvas for artistic expression. Despite his artistic genius, Louis Cartier was also good at recognising talent in others. In this instance, it was the ingenuity of watchmaker and inventor Edmond Jaeger.

The slippery Cartier Tank Basculante 2499c is one of the best kept secrets by Cartier aficionados.

Owner Review: Steinhart Military 47 – Unique Flieger
Long before I found this Steinhart Military 47 I have always had a special liking for German made products. I even took on a language course during school days. The thing that I admire the most about German made products is the craftsmanship. Nothing beats the submarine steel of Sinn & Damasko, and Lange is…

Owner Review: Cartier Tank Must
I’d say I’m quite a rational person and that reflects in my way of collecting watches. I usually think and learn about a watch for some time, save money, order the piece etc. But that’s not the story with this one.

Owner review: Ballon Bleu De Cartier
As a female with an interest in horology the Ballon Bleu De Cartier strikes a cord with me. I often get baffled by the lack of understanding that women, indeed, can enjoy both men’s and women’s watches. Often, a lady’s watch does not carry the same value as men’s, simply because it is perceived that…
