Patek Philippe Annual Calendar 5035 Owner Review by @watchesandwords
The practical complication of Patek Philippe, the Annual Calendar Ref. 5035 confuses most of the people I know. Firstly people do not know that Patek introduced the annual calendar complication with this watch at the 1996 Baselworld fair as a part of the practical complications collection. The annual calendar complication is invented by Patek Philippe.…

Ball Trainmaster Moon Phase Owner Review by @nubenuberson
If you want a moonphase but not a dress watch, this watch might be an option. The Ball Trainmaster Moon Phase is too large and too loud for formal wear but is a great choice for a night out. You actually get to see your moonphase when the moon is out. Also unlike most moon…

Dan Henry 1975 Automatic Skin Diver Owner Review by @archiepeterson1303
The Dan Henry 1975 Automatic Skin Diver is a fun, colourful and retro styled skin diver, meaning it features only 150m of water resistance as opposed to the typical 200-300m of other dive watches.

An Aquastar is a True Star: Owner Review by @grandcruwatches
I had two divers in my collection: the Rolex Sea-Dweller 116600 and the Seiko Marinemaster 300 SBDX001. Both watches are fabulous in their own right, but they share a similar style and feel on the wrist. I was lusting for something fresh and different. So, I bid farewell to the Marinemaster and welcomed the Aquastar…
