Owner review: Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch Professional
The Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch Professional is a legend, an icon, and one of the greatest watches of all time. The reason I was so enamored with the Speedmaster was because, as a kid, I was seeing the watch in the local Omega AD and learning about the whole history and the “first watch worn on…

Owner review: Tudor Black Bay GMT 79830RB
I have lusted after a Tudor Black Bay GMT 79830RB since 2018 when it was released alongside the Rolex GMT Pepsi. For some reason, I just found the Tudor more appealing and of course, it being half the price of the Rolex it seemed like the Tudor GMT was a much better value proposition. I…

Owner review: Grand Seiko Skyflake SBGA407
Is the Grand Seiko Skyflake SBGA407 the perfect watch? Grand Seiko is possibly one of the most incredible watch manufacturers, in my opinion, making watches today. Grand Seiko offers a wide array of watches in their catalog with different horological innovations that are unique to their brand. Grand Seiko’s innovations include the spring drive movement,…

Owner Review: Omega Constellation
The Omega Constellation is overlooked in the brands’ offerings. When we think about Omega the watches that immediately come to mind are the Seamaster and of course the iconic Speedmaster. The Constellation line has been in Omega’s catalog for more than half a century appearing for the first time in the 1950’s. The famous pie-pan dials…

Owner Review: Frederique Constant Slimline Perpetual Calendar
Frederique Constant is a brand that offers serious value. A newer brand that has 15 in-house movements under their umbrella, impressive? Yes. I am no stranger to the brand, back in 2015 my first decent watch was a Frederique Constant. Since then I have added quite a few watches to my collection, then it came…

Owner Review: TAG Heuer F1 – My Attempt to Change Your Mind
TAG Heuer is a brand that has been dogged by controversies. Yes it has made significant mistakes in the past but that doesn’t necessarily define the brand. For me TAG Heuer as a brand was polarizing, seeing an advertisement on TV and magazines with A-list celebrities made me think of the brand as the best…

Owner Review: Sevenfriday M2
Sevenfriday is a brand that is the birth child of social media, with their claim to fame being associated with WatchAnish. Established in 2012, their watches are a tribute to industrial design. Sevenfriday is a lifestyle brand targeted towards younger audiences. I was attracted to the brand because of the design and brand identity. They…

Owner Review: Bulgari Aluminum Diagono – Italian chic!
Bulgari is a brand that is synonymous with luxury. Originally a high jewelry brand, Bulgari has made its way into the watch world with a bang! – with exceptionally finished and innovative in-house movements and innovation in materials. Before Bulgari made a debut into the high horology world, their watches were marketed as luxury “fashion…

Owner Review: Norqain Freedom 60 – A modern watch with a vintage feel.
Norqain is a new brand established in 2018 and is starting to grow rapidly in that short 2 years. Available in most major retailers around the world including the Hodinkee shop, the brand has that freshness to it that I find appealing. It has a lot to offer (for a new brand) – they are…

Owner Review: Breitling Transocean Chronograph
I have been a Breitling fan for a long time. I love the fact that these watches were built for pioneering aviators, not the case today, but it is a slight reminder that the watch was indeed a tool. I have had the privilege to wear and own a couple of watches from the brand…
