Owner Review: Vostok Amphibia – A for Adventure
The Vostok Amphibia has been around since 1967. The design principles and factory in Chistopol, Russia remained the same through the decades, delivering a true in-house product with rich history at a modest price point.

Owner Review: Jaeger LeCoultre Master Compressor
So here is my Series 1 Jaeger LeCoultre Master Compressor chronograph ref 146.8.25. This watch had been on my hit list for some time before I was able to acquire a good condition variant.

Owner Review: Tudor Harrods Black Bay – Little brother to the Kermit
Behold the Tudor Harrods Black Bay – a limited/special edition of the Black Bay exclusive available from Harrods London.

Owner Review: Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore Diver

Owner Review: Rolex Submariner Date 16610 – “pre-ceramic”
Before I get to the review of my Rolex Submariner Date 16610 pre-ceramic, I will give you a bit of the back story. It was whilst leafing through National Geographic magazines as a kid that made me get the Rolex bug – It seemed from the ads, that if you were an adventurer, explorer, sailor,

How did I find my way to the Rolex Submariner Hulk? Well when I first got into “nice watches” a few years ago, I was attracted to the aesthetics of dive watches. After hanging around watch forums for some time, I found out about the Rolex submariner and I immediately fell in love. I finally
