Scurfa Diver One 2.0 The dive watch. We all love them. Well, at least I do. What is better than a really well built, classic looking dive watch? An affordable one. Yes, the Scurfa Diver One 2.0 is using a quartz movement, but it is also $234 shipped and it has all the bells and whistles we look for, including a custom made rubber strap. An evolution to the Rolex Comex divers, and an evolution to i...
William L.1985 Vintage Diver Vintage. It is a word that is said a lot these days. I cannot even begin to count how many watches I see or review that are vintage or retro inspired. It is the trend these days, for how long; who knows, but many brands will ride the train until we are on to the next trend. Many brands are coming out with vintage designs these days but not many are doing vintage sizing...
Spinnaker Fleuss Spinnaker has released two new diver watches into their ever growing model lineup and sent me two variations. The case on all Spinnaker Fleuss models is the same across the board, but as you can see, these two have different bezels, dials and crown. Both are vintage style divers, most notably taking inspiration from the Blancpain Fifty Fathoms. Other colors of each are available a...
Formex Element Uniqueness. This is something you do not find a lot of with watches these days. That is mostly because there are so many brands and lets face, it has been done before. When the Formex Element showed up at my door and I unboxed it (on video, check our Youtube), I immediately thought, damn, this is unique. Now, it turns out it is not as unique as I originally thought because it does t...
Obris Morgan Infinity Every time Obris Morgan releases a new model there is a frenzy to grab one. This time was no different with the Obris Morgan Infinity. A few months ago they released the Infinity on a preorder, but only 200 were released. Another 300 is set to be released shortly. The preorder sold out in minutes for those first 200 pieces. Why? Well, Obris at this point makes rugged looking ...
Erroyl Duke Melrose I’m not one for dress watches these days as I rarely put on the business attire. My tastes still tend to gravitate towards dive or field watches but a dress watch is nice to have in the lineup. I have never been overly fond of the traditional dress watch, you know; super thin, a thin bracelet or leather strap and a dial you can barely read with small hands and numbers. Th...
Nethuns Lava Bronze I believe it was a comment on Youtube, where I posted the unboxing video of this Nethuns Lava Bronze, (If you have not checked them out yet, go to our Youtube channel for unboxing of all new watches that come in for review), where someone said that the bronze “fad” is over. Now I have always been upfront when reviewing a bronze watch that it is not my first pick at ...
Nauticfish Thusunt As I have said many times before, In the world of watches, the competition is fierce. You may have not heard of Nauticfish if you are newer to the watch world, but they have been around for at least 10 years. They are brand that honestly had dropped off my radar for a bit, until I saw them posting about this new model on social media. The new model is the Nauticfish Thusunt (Tho...
Titoni Master Series I do not wear a dress watch often, but when I do, I like one that is sophisticated looking yet something that could still be worn with a pair of jeans and a button down shirt. Admittedly, I do not currently own a dress watch, as I have a few watches that can play the part when need be, but there is something to be said for an elegant, thin watch that will compliment your outfi...
Hanhart Primus Diver I can easily say I have fallen in love with Hanhart Watches. I have always admired them from afar but it wasn’t until recently that I got a chance to review one, the Hanhart Pioneer MK I, back in July. I absolutely adore that watch, for many reasons. That brings us to the topic of this review, the Hanhart Primus Diver. While I may not be as emphatic about this model as I...
Helgray TCD-01 Affordable watches sure have come a long way in the past 15 years or so. Before the internet that we have today and the surge of microbrands over the past decade, the affordable watches consisted of Timex and the like, Fossil, Guess, etc. To get anything really decent you were looking at probably around $400 and it was usually a Citizen or Seiko. The landscape has obviously ch...
