• Owner Review: Halios Fairwind – 39mm blue beauty with killer bracelet

    I first saw the Halios Fairwind on Instagram. While Jason Lim at Halios doesn’t post very often, somehow the IG algorithm read my mind and dangled this shiny object before my eyes. Halios watches tend to re-sell at a premium, but what really drew me to the Fairwind is the bracelet with on-the-fly adjustability. EVERY…

    Helm watches have built a cult following in the microbrand community and for a good reason – they offer original designs and unparalleled quality for the price. And as demand kept increasing over the years, they’ve managed to keep their prices relatively unchanged. What’s the catch? – you might ask, because undoubtedly there has to…

  • Owner Review: Oris Big Crown Father Time by @omar_luxury_

    The watch industry has become quite polarized in the past few years. Unprecedented hype and demand for certain brands have tainted the “fun of collecting.” This has made watches seem primarily like status symbols or commodities to flip. Yet, there are brands that offer great value and fun watches that fulfill the joy of watch…

  • Owner Review: Tudor Oyster 7394 Small Rose by @timely_behaviour

    It’s hot and terribly humid, you fight your way through the forest undergrowth. This is the moment you wanted, months of planning for this expedition. Still you trudge on, covered in weeks of rainforest filth, sweat, blood from a couple of minor accidents. You notice the rest of your group are tired, the light in…

  • Owner Review: Parmigiani Fleurier Tonda GT Automatic by @watchesandwords

    A dressy steel sports watch? Sure. The Parmigiani Fleurier Tonda GT is a large, modern but elegant watch. I have admired the distinguished watches of the Parmigiani Fleurier brand since they first appeared around the mid-1990s. I liked the fact that the watches of this brand are rather less known and inconspicuous. And I am…

  • Ball Trainmaster Moon Phase Owner Review by @nubenuberson

    If you want a moonphase but not a dress watch, this watch might be an option. The Ball Trainmaster Moon Phase is too large and too loud for formal wear but is a great choice for a night out. You actually get to see your moonphase when the moon is out. Also unlike most moon…

  • Dan Henry 1975 Automatic Skin Diver Owner Review by @archiepeterson1303

    The Dan Henry 1975 Automatic Skin Diver is a fun, colourful and retro styled skin diver, meaning it features only 150m of water resistance as opposed to the typical 200-300m of other dive watches. This means that whilst you can certainly swim with it, I wouldn’t recommend diving whilst wearing it. However this lack of…
