    Owner review: Tissot PRX Powermatic 80

    The Tissot PRX Powermatic 80 is a watch you can actually buy! We live in a world now of horological shortages which are affecting a number of high end Swiss watch brands such as Rolex, Patek Philippe, Audemars Piguet, FP Journe, and even Vacheron Constantin. It doesn’t stop there. Even Tudor’s popular models such as…

Echo/Neutra’s current catalogue consists of 7 watches; with the latest Kickstarter backed watch the Averau 39 Moon phase coming in 3 variations with 3 dial colour options,…

    Owner review: Glashütte Original PanoMaticLunar

    What first attracted me to the Glashütte Original PanoMaticLunar was the movement – cal. 90-02. It is possibly the most well balanced automatic movement I’ve ever seen. It is not just the finish, which is of course immaculate, but the whole composition of the pretty big micro-rotor, that works perfectly with the ¾ plate. In comparison,…

    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: A. Lange & Sohne Lange 1 MoonPhase

    The A. Lange & Sohne Lange 1 MoonPhase is such a distinctive watch that marks A Lange & Sohne’s (“ALS”) revival in the 1990s with its unique decentralised and asymmetrical dial design, and of course, the outsize date display. A piece I’ve always wanted to add to my collection, and I’ve very pleased to share…

    Owner review: Grand Seiko SBGW231

    The Grand Seiko SBGW231 is part of my watch collecting “hobby” (reads: sickness)story. Like many, my obsession was spiralling out of control and my appetite for buying more watches grew by the day, I started consciously putting some roadblocks to prevent myself from acquiring new timepieces. At the time, Grand Seiko had been taking the…
