Owner Review: Rolex Sea-Dweller 16600

I have always been a huge fan of dive watches. Something about their practical, no-nonsense design and usability has appealed to me since my interest in watches started. One of those dive watches is manufactured by none other than Rolex, a heavy-weight in this category for its timeless designs and innovation. This is my review…

Owner Review: Oris Diver 65 – blast from the past that lasts

In a marketplace saturated by retro dive watches and watch company reissues complete with artificially aged lume, dials, and hand sets, it can be hard to imagine a less funky and colorful world only half a decade ago when watches were generally just iterations of modern lineups.

Owner Review: Rolex Double Red Sea Dweller

Owner Review: Seiko SARB033 – Is it still worth it?

There are many reviews on the Seiko SARB033. So, why another one? I feel an updated review is called for to see if it is still worth it. At 38mm and 44mm lug to lug, I consider it to be at the sweet spot of watch sizes. In fact, it hearkens to the days of…
