Vostok Europe Anchar

2021-07-29

The Vostok Europe Anchar's design, without a doubt, permits it to be more than the sum of its components. When you read the list of technical specifications, it sounds like a thousand other sub-$1000 dive watches. However, upon closer inspection, it appears to be something far more special. Vostok Europe is a strange firm, which I believe is a Lithuanian branch of the more historic Russian watchmaker Vostok. Vostok Europe u

Omega Seamaster Aquaterra

2021-06-25

It's safe to assume that Omega was the Swatch Group's star last year in 2013. 2014 and beyond are also looking promising, but we can confidently conclude that Omega has done an excellent job of remembering and celebrating its history while also looking forward. The Omega Seamaster Aqua Terra > 15,000 Gauss is a timepiece that combines both of these viewpoints. When we look at it, we see a sturdy vintage Omega clo

Rolex Submariner 114060

The Rolex Submariner 114060 is an extremely difficult timepiece to beat. For many people, owning a Rolex watch is a dream.

Tudor Heritage Black

2021-04-27

With three new improvements and three brand-new additions to the line (five of which house Tudor's in-house movement), there's now almost enough for every kind of collector. A surprising 36mm dress diver, a stealthy PVD-coated version, and an all-new bronze case and style have dominated most of the Baselworld buzz. The initial three Tudor Heritage Black Bays – Red, Blue, and Black – all get the

Grand Seiko SLGH005

2021-04-21

Few brands can currently compete with Grand Seiko in terms of dial design and finish. The Japanese brand's wide range of nature-inspired textures, from freshly fallen snow to cherry blossoms and lion manes, has won it fans all over the world, and its latest release introduces a tranquil new concept to the series. Aside from an intricate new dial texture and a subtly cool colorway, the new Grand Seiko SLGH005 introduces a new case an

Ulysse Nardin Diver 42

2021-04-17

Ulysse Nardin builds on the popularity of their Diver Chronometer 44 range, which was launched as a 2018 year model at the end of 2017. The Chronometer was well-received not only by bloggers and knowledgeable critics, but also by people who could afford a watch that costs $8000-$12,000 USD, so they decided to make a more basic version. The Ulysse Nardin Diver 42 is a classic three-hander with a simple a
