    Owner Review: Squale 60 Atmos – Summer on the Wrist

    I don’t know about everyone else, but for me when I purchase a watch it is based on how it looks first and foremost, and everything else second. There are a lot of things that go into the decision to buy a watch (price, brand, movement etc.) but if I don’t like the way a…

    Owner Review: Seiko Alpinist SARB017

Research helped me learn a little of the interesting history behind the…

    Owner Review: Seiko SBQJ015 – Quartz Watch Packed with Features

    The Seiko SBQJ015 is a rarity that deserves some attention. You won’t find much in the Seiko line-up these days that matches the SBQJ015’s impressive specs, or beautiful design.
