Owner Review: Nodus Sector Sport Glacial
Can a microbrand fulfill a one watch collection? Let’s face it, if you are reading this review, then you’re likely not in that frame of mind. BUT, if you know anyone who is, or (more likely) if you’re looking for a real everyday GADA value proposition; look no further than the Nodus Sector Sport. I…

Owner Review: Kudoke 2 – affordable independent
I first noticed Stefan Kudoke when I saw some posts on Instagram with his very elaborate skeletonized watches. Beautiful and very skillfully done, but not really for me. Then one day I saw a post of a different watch, which also turned out to be from his hands: The Kudoke 2 with his own, very…

Owner Review: Cooper Submaster – a different kind of sub
“The kind of watch worn by hairy chested Secret Agents, former SBS types with easy smiles and big….well, we won’t go any further.” When you read a description like this on the company page, you just know you’re in for something special. And special it is, this Cooper Submaster. Modeled after the 80’s watches made…

Owner Review: Omega Dirty Dozen 1940s
As a history buff and lover of Omega, the 1940s ref W.W.W. (Watch, Wrist, Waterproof) is a grail watch for me. And when I found an original Omega Dirty Dozen with its luminous radium dial and hands, I knew I had to jump at the opportunity. The ref W.W.W is one of the famed “Dirty…

Owner Review: Rolex Datejust 1603
I have been (and still am) a vintage 1960s Seiko enthusiast for twenty-something years. I also aspired to own a vintage Rolex since reading those National Geographic ads back in the glorious 60s and 70s. Last year I felt I was ready to move on to this stage, consolidated my vintage Seiko collection to a…

Owner Review: Piaget Tiger Eye 9741
Piaget is an interesting brand. They simply don’t get the credit they deserve. Not only are they movement makers, but they are also movement innovators. This Piaget Tiger Eye 9741 sports the famed 9P movement, the slimmest movement ever created at the time. Piaget has continued to push the boundaries when it comes to making…

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: Sinn 105 UTC – truly modern moderism
Start with a Sinn 104 and strip away all the fluff; the polish, the gloss, the fancy hands and leave just a no-nonsense piece of industrial design intended to tell you the time in the easiest, brightest and lightest way and you’ve got the Sinn 105 UTC. This watch has (almost) nothing it doesn’t need…
