Owner review: Seiko PADI Mini Turtle SRPC41
The Seiko PADI Mini Turtle SRPC41 is an affordable and wearable diver that punches above its weight class in a few surprising ways. I never planned on buying a Seiko, but wanted something I could wear to the water park, playing tennis, or other activities that I know I could wear a more expensive sports…

Owner review: Makina Uriel V
I’ve always been a supporter of start-ups, small operations and even underdogs. I don’t know what triggers it but it feels warm and fuzzy inside to be able to contribute and support the growth of a thing. As a watch enthusiast, I find myself buying local watch brands (I’m from the Philippines) in my attempt…

Owner review: Oris Aquis Date Upcycle
I’ve been looking at adding a diver/sports watch to my collection since my preference is still towards dressier timepieces. Oris Aquis has been in my radar but somehow never seems to have pull the trigger. Somehow having a small wrist doesn’t help in my case. It was in late 2021 that I saw the release…

Owner review: MB&F M.A.D.1 Red
I wish I was a little bit taller, I wish I was a baller, I wish I had an MB&F coz that’s so much cooler… I am neither particularly tall, nor do I excel at ball sports. And I certainly can’t afford to buy an MB&F. Or can I? In the heady days of Covid,…

Owner review: Ophion 786 Vélos
I can remember my reaction when I saw the Ophion 786 Vélos back in the days (during the COVID period). I instantly thought: “What a beautiful looking and tasteful watch.” My second thought was: “This is too good to be true, either it will be enormously costly or the waiting time will kill my patience”…

Owner review: Grand Seiko SLGH005
Yet another exiting reference number from Grand Seiko, thankfully this model has got another name, the “white birch”. Even tough I can see the birch forest in the dial maybe it’s a bit to silvery to be named the “White birch”. Let’s not get stuck in the whole name thing. When the Grand Seiko SLGH005…
