Owner Review: Tudor Black Bay Dark – Come to the dark side
I would be lying if I said I was a long-time fan of the Tudor Black Bay Dark. In fact, I am not usually a fan of blacked out watches. So, it came as a surprise when I first laid my eyes on the watch in the flesh. Then holding it in my hands confirms

Owner Review: Patek Philippe Aquanaut 5167a
When Patek Philippe released the Nautilus in 1976, it was a departure from the traditional designs for which the brand was so well-known. Two decades later, they went a step further and unveiled the Aquanaut – a more casual, sporty alternative…and the first Patek with a rubber strap. It was clearly inspired by the design

Grand Seiko SBGM221 GMT Review
OK, let me start with my biases. I’m a three-hand guy. Not really, of course, though as a watch addict that would be pretty great. What I mean is that I love simple watches. I have a few divers and chronos but what I really love is a perfect no-date three hander. If I’m going

Owner Review: Swatch 007 “Q”
This 7th timepiece in the 2020 Swatch X 007 Collection allegedly released in a limited run of 7007 units. The Swatch 007 “Q” is one limited edition that won’t cost you your first born, or both kidneys. The Q sports a quartz movement that is wrapped with a 42mm matte finished stainless steel case at

Owner Review: Breitling Chronospace – 90’s digital coolness
Quartz Vs Mechanical. A contentious argument between many a watch enthusiast and an advancement in technology that nearly saw the demise of the watch industry in the early 80’s. Many brands disappeared, thankfully one of my favourites did not and from that brand we were gifted the Breitling Chronospace. In 1985, The Aerospace was born,

Owner Review: S.U.F Vetehinen – Not for Everyone
The S.U.F Vetehinen is great for people like me who love Stepan Sarpaneva’s higher-end Sarpaneva branded watches but cannot afford them! While the standard SUF (SarpanevaUhrenFabrik) Vetehinen in stainless steel already looks good, IMO this Ltd Edition (26pces) looks beautiful in a gothic sort of way and the closer you look the better it gets.

Owner Review: Omega Speedmaster Professional Moonwatch
“Flight qualified by NASA for all space missions, the first watch worn on the moon” is inscribed on the back of this chronograph and immediately every watch enthusiast knows what you are talking about. As a very young child my Mother got me out of my little bed to watch the Moon landing on television

Owner Review: Rado Golden Horse 1957 Limited Edition
I recently passed by my local Rado dealer, simply just to say hi. They told me they had something to show me. What they showed me was a new arrival that instantly stole my heart. The Rado Golden Horse 1957 with the red fumé dial is a new re-issued limited edition from Rado. The curved

Owner Review: Omega Speedmaster Mark 40 Triple Calendar
When speaking of Omega, the Speedmaster line needs no introduction. The moonwatch gets all the spotlight but the Omega Speedmaster Mark 40 Triple Calendar 3820.53 in some people’s opinion is the ugliest design ever created by Omega. Calling the MK40 “ugly” might be a bit harsh though, it could certainly be described as colorful, bold

Owner Review: Rolex Submariner 16613 Serti
Rolex Submariner 16613 Serti (Gem-set) dial or also sometimes called the Sultan (Sovereign in Middle-East) dial submariner 16613- a stunning gem-set dial that can take you from day to night. The two-tone 18 carat gold, 8 diamond hour markers with 3 sapphire indexes breathes a sense of romance into an otherwise boring run of the

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…
