Owner review: Grand Seiko SBGN011
Before I get to my review of the Grand Seiko SBGN011 it is important to know that at the time of writing, I’ve been in the watch game for 8 years. By now, it’s safe to say that I know a thing or two about going down the rabbit hole that is watch collecting. Throughout…

Owner review: Rolex Yacht-Master 116621

Owner review: Bulova Oceanographer ‘Devil Diver’
This July while on vacation, I took a day trip to Halifax, (Nova Scotia). I had barely left my home province of New Brunswick since Covid started, and a short trip was due. My province only has one good AD. Halifax is the closest city with multiple dealers. The purpose of my trip was two-fold;…

Owner review: Felipe Pikullik Sternenhimmel
A couple years ago, a friend pointed me to a young watchmaker out of Berlin Germany making custom open worked watches. Those designs, while beautiful, weren’t to my taste.

Grand Seiko SBGX337 Quartz Diver Or maybe the . . . “Blue Hammer Head Shark” This watch is greater than the sum of its parts. I’m a Grand Seiko veteran, so I’m used to the quality and finish, but this watch spends more time on the wrist than I ever thought it would. The Grand…

Owner review: Oris Diver 65 Cotton Candy
When the Oris Diver 65 Cotton Candy watches were announced I was immediately drawn to and curious about the pink version. I knew I wouldn’t have a chance to see one in the flesh for a long time though because I live quite far from any AD. During a GTG weekend in Lyon with some…

Owner review: Patek Philippe Nautilus 5711/1A-010
Here’s a challenge I set for myself: Review the Patek Philippe Nautilus 5711/1A-010 without mentioning hype or desirability. I believe it is time to sit down, coffee in hand, and ponder on our journey for the past 4 years and counting. Patek’s move of turning away from a traditional dress watch design language may shout…
