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: Kudoke 2 Bluebird by @natecho
I had first heard of Kudoke a few years prior to when I started really paying attention to this lovely husband and wife duo. At that time they were doing mostly skeletonized pieces which didn’t interest me as much. But fast forward to 2019, and seeing all the pictures that came with being nominated /…

Owner Review: Citizen Promaster E02020-08E by @east_w_atch
2023 is the year of Citizen with countless new releases and configurations on classics, the Promaster E02020-08E Eco Drive watch continues this barrage on the midrange watch market, in a crowd pleasing 36.5mm case size.

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…

Owner review: RGMT New Demolition
RGMT is a relatively new watch company that specializes in overbuilt military inspired tool watches. With model names like Artillery, BattleDress and Demolition well, you get the idea. The RGMT New Demolition seems to be a more feature-heavy version of the Demolition model. To start with, it has a pretty standard diver bezel that appears…

Owner review: Boldr Rally II – Wells 201
Boldr have been making titanium watches for what seems like years now and The ‘Rally II – Wells 201’, a Meca Quartz powered chronograph, shows to me they are still the microbrand forefathers of this hype material that many other mainstream and independent watch brands are only now starting to use, and for good reason.…

Owner review: Ophion 786 Vélos
I can remember my reaction when I saw the Ophion 786 Vélos back in the days (during the COVID period). I instantly thought: “What a beautiful looking and tasteful watch.” My second thought was: “This is too good to be true, either it will be enormously costly or the waiting time will kill my patience”…

Owner Review: Ratio Freediver X
When the first renders of the Ratio Freediver X appeared at the beginning of the year, I have to say I was intrigued. I loved the case shape and the overall design, but I was afraid it was gonna be too big – as some of the past divers from Ratio were. But I was…

Owner review: BYOP Avitimer
A favorite pair of jeans, a sweatshirt that fits like no other, there are certain things I own that are comfortable and timeless in one. The BYOP Avitimer just joined my stable of such items. I have an indifference to Flieger dials, but appreciate and enjoy the utilitarian nature of a pilot’s watch. BYOP provides…
