Owner review: Omega Constellation Pie Pan 168.005
The Omega Constellation is a watch that has been around for decades and comes in hundreds of variations. However, there is one version that defined what some would call the most stylish generation: The Omega Constellation Pie Pan 168.005. Seen on the wrists of icons like Elvis Pressley and Al Pacino in “The Godfather”, the

Owner review: Tudor Ranger 79950
39mm 39mm 39mm I’ve been hearing that in my head more than I hear the phrase pop of color from watch reviewers on YouTube. So when I heard the Tudor Ranger 79950 was released, I called the ADs in town and 11 days later I was lucky enough to get the first one in. So

Owner review: Hermes Arceau Grande Lune
I recently purchased the Hermes Arceau Grande Lune and I must say it is an elegant dress watch. This version comes with the blue calf skin strap with deployant clasps. Coming in at 43mm, legibility is good for people with waning eyesight. The power reserve of the Hermes Arceau Grande Lune comes in at 42

Owner review: Seiko 5 GMT SSK001
Prior to the whole COVID situation, travelling used to be quite a frequent event for me, either for family holidays, or to attend work-related conferences. When COVID hit, all that changed, but I remain hopeful that hassle-free travel will return. Hence, I’m presenting my new Seiko 5 GMT SSK001! Hoping for it to accompany on

Owner review: Nomos Lambda
Since I started collecting watches I’ve always been intrigued by Nomos. The German brand has a lot going for it; iconic Bauhaus design, in-house movements, and excellent quality, all at a relatively reasonable price. During my search for the first Nomos, the Lambda in steel was launched. Yes, it was very attractive, but way too

Owner review: Corum Bubble – One of a kind
Watch brand Corum and its conspicuous Corum Bubble design either makes others gawk in amazement or bring on Jim Carrey’s gag at an instant. In early 2000s Corum and Panerai continued the “big watch” trend Invicta was well known for. This piece has a 44mm case, 54mm lug height and 20mm super high dome sapphire

Owner review: Ming 17.09
When MING announced the new Ming 17.09 I actually was still in no-new-watch-for-at-least-a-year-mode. But the new offering was so attractive to me in terms of design and price that I reluctantly decided to try the annoying ordering procedure. But then – this was communicated from the start – I had to wait 12 months! You

Owner Review: Vintage ZentRa
Often you hear, that the watch virus was passed on from father to son. Not so in my case. My father was always wearing cheap department-storesque quartz watches. Actually I purchased the last one he wore, as my mother – I must have been around 20 this time – asked me to buy him a

Owner Review: Massena LAB Dato-Racer
Last Thursday morning, an email popped up in my inbox from Massena LAB announcing the release of a 99-piece limited edition, 1970’s-inspired three-hander: the Massena LAB Dato-Racer. Similar to the email only release of the Geometer back in February, the email said there would be no watch media and no social media promoting this piece,

Owner Review: Habring2 Time Only 2009
The deep black gloss of the outer chapter ring, finely executed small seconds at 9, and rich shine of the indices drew me in on that sunny Saturday morning at a small independent watch retailer in 2013. Years and many hours of wear later proved that the allure of the Habring2 Time Only 2009 was not

That dial is just fntastic.
Very cool watch. I have always wondered about the bronze models. Is the caseback bronze as well? If so do…
