Owner Review: Rolex Oysterquartz 17014
I’ve always been drawn to the weird and wonderful world of 70’s watch and car design. To me the Rolex Oysterquartz 17014 is a perfect embodiment of my tastes but what’s it like to wear? In a word-special. On the wrist, the 36mm case appears larger than the regular Oyster case, helped in part by…

Owner Review: Rolex Yacht-Master 16628
The all gold Rolex Yacht-Master 16628.. It’s the one to start all Yacht-Masters and the timepiece that started my watch fever as a young man. I selected it as my goal watch because my father said that when I had a real job and proved myself as responsible, he would let me wear it and…

Owner Review: Rolex Air-King 116900
Yes it’s a controversial subtitle but it’s true and it relates directly to the Rolex Air-King 116900. The watch community (especially Rolex enthusiasts) complain about a lot of things such as hands, dials colours, sizes and bracelets. One of the things they would like more of (me included) is Rolex actually paying more attention by…

Owner Review: Rolex GMT-Master II Pepsi Meteorite 126719BLRO
Having owned the Pepsi BLRO in stainless steel, my next natural progression was to also own a Rolex GMT-Master II Pepsi Meteorite 126719BLRO. The meteorite dial is an extremely special piece to me, as no two dials are identical. As most Rolex sport models have the same 40mm cases and only 2 versions of different…

Owner Review: Rolex Milgauss White Dial 116400
For my fifth Fifth Wrist review, I felt somewhat obligated, for the first time, to review a Rolex. Moans and groans from the readers, at this point? Though this is not, in my subjective opinion, a ‘run of the mill’ Rolex (pardon the pun…). This Rolex Milgauss White Dial 116400 exudes fun, plus it is…

Owner Review: Rolex Oyster Perpetual 39mm 114300
The Rolex Oyster Perpetual 39mm 114300 white dial or as some might call it, matte silver dial, is a very classy watch that also enjoys a minimalistic style. It is a great every day watch as it fits pretty much every occasion and goes with almost every outfit. It really can handle anything you might…

Owner Review: Rolex Sea-Dweller 16600
I have always been a huge fan of dive watches. Something about their practical, no-nonsense design and usability has appealed to me since my interest in watches started. One of those dive watches is manufactured by none other than Rolex, a heavy-weight in this category for its timeless designs and innovation. This is my review…

Owner Review: Rolex Day-Date 36mm
We all have that moment. The moment when we first see an incredible item that ignites a passion that will last for the rest of our lives. For some it is a wonderful piece of art, for others, it is an amazing feat of engineering in the form of a supercar. The thing that did…

Owner Review: Rolex Double Red Sea Dweller
I’ve always been a Sea-Dweller fan. My first Rolex Sea-Dweller was the 16600, and the major draw to me was the fact that it did not have a date magnifier (aka cyclops), and the fact that at 40mm, it is very similar to the Rolex Submariner, but a little thicker. The Rolex Double Red Sea…
