Owner Review: Squale 30 Atmos 60th Anniversary Edition

A watch with an old look, or say a vintage piece, can somehow be hugely appealing to me. This is one example – the Squale 30 Atmos 60th Anniversary Edition (SUB-39). A limited edition of 150 pieces. At first glance, I was immersed in this matt black surface with yellowish markers on the face. The…

Owner Review: Casio G-Shock GM-5600 – a beater afraid of a beating

Just as the G-Shock model line subverted expectations for what a watch should be back when it was first released, this Casio G-Shock GM-5600 is an unexpected answer to what a G-Shock watch can be. Taking a look at the specs, it does not stand out from its brethren, right until you get to the…

Owner Review: Tag Heuer Formula 1 Chronograph

I bought this Tag Heuer Formula 1 Chronograph a few years back to tide me over until I could purchase an Omega Speedmaster Professional. The plan was to enjoy it and then move it along if I ever got the chance to purchase the Speedmaster. At 42mm in diameter and 12mm thick with a short…

Owner Review: Undone X Peanuts Snoopy Watch

You could say ‘Undone’ watches are ‘Unknown’ to people in the watch world. I certainly didn’t know about it prior to seeing some advertisements and doing some research. Undone focuses on fashion items, and has built its brand on allowing customers to customise their watch to their liking. Every now and again, they’ll have collaborations…

Owner Review: Universal Geneve Microtor Automatic

This Universal Geneve Microtor Automatic cost just about as much as a Volkswagen car in 1959. Universal Geneve watches at the time were sold in Patek Philippe boutiques and it really does show. Truly stunning quality in 18k rose gold and a beautiful brushed face. I wear a suit almost every day- at least I…

Owner Review: King Seiko 5626-7041 – Gone but never forgotten

Ah, King Seiko 5626-7041. You may have lost your battle with Grand Seiko but you still won my heart. ❤️ In the 1960’s, Seiko was on a mission to disrupt Swiss watchmaking. To accelerate innovation, Seiko split into two completely independent subsidiaries, pitted against each other in a race to produce the finest watches capable of…

Owner Review: Halios Seaforth

Halios Seaforth watches get a lot of love from the watch community. And after I was lucky enough to snag a Series 1 Seaforth (sunburst blue dial, fixed bezel) I’ve got to say it’s well deserved. In fact, I loved that first Seaforth so much I went and got a second one when the Series…
