Owner Review: Sinn 900 Flieger – At home on land, under water and in the air
In my small portfolio, the Sinn 900 Flieger («pilot») is the oldest and one of the first «proper» watches I ever bought. And for me, the 900F is still one of the hottest watches in the Sinn range. The 900F has a very clean and uncluttered face, while still offering a lot of information: a…

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: Tissot Luxury Powermatic 80 by @martltime
My unexpected new, yet old Tissot So this is my first review here of a watch. I have chosen my newest addition for this: The Tissot Luxury Powermatic 80. The watch has a relatively flat 9.8mm thickness and wears quite comfortably with its 41mm diameter . It is of course not a pure dress watch,…

Atelier Wen Perception Owner Review by @thetime.production
Hello watch enthusiasts, Today, I would like to introduce you to the only sport-chic watch with an integrated bracelet in my collection. It is an Atelier Wen Perception 影 (YING).

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…

Tactico Atlantis Owner Review by Chris @ck2k01
I really like the archetypal Monnin case (some would say “cased,” with another company, M.R.P., also likely deserving some credit). There are actually a few different Monnin cases that were used by a range of brands back in the day, though the originating Heuer 844 (“Jumbo”) is the most iconic. The same or very similar…

An Aquastar is a True Star: Owner Review by @grandcruwatches
I had two divers in my collection: the Rolex Sea-Dweller 116600 and the Seiko Marinemaster 300 SBDX001. Both watches are fabulous in their own right, but they share a similar style and feel on the wrist. I was lusting for something fresh and different. So, I bid farewell to the Marinemaster and welcomed the Aquastar…

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: Sinn U50-T
I was looking for a toolish dive watch that wasn’t just an homage that looked like so many other dive watches. I’ve been a fan of Sinn’s aesthetics and their watches in general (after owning a few over the years). Although I have always been partial to the U1, I could never get comfortable with…
