Reactor Titan Watch Review
When does a ‘tactical’ watch become ‘tacti-cool’? When you’re wearing REACTOR’s new Titan, a watch purposefully designed to be as tough as the people that wear them. In 2003 the company set out with an ambitious goal. Their intent was to not only create a line of sport watches that would break free from the sport watch norm, but one that would redefine wristwatc...
Bertucci A3-T Navigator Ti-Matic Watch Review
Last July I was able to review the Bertucci Vintage 44 Illuminated Field Watch here on WatchReport. You can see that review HERE . I was impressed with the look and feel of the watch and the overall construction, as Bertucci in my opinion really tries to create the perfect watch for those out in the field, or someone wanting a casual watch that is still rugged and can take abuse. That particular m...
Aquadive Bathysphere 500 Watch Review
Many think of Rolex when it comes to serious dive pieces, but those that are in the know have looked to Aquadive since the 60s and 70s to meet their professional diving needs. While marketing propelled some brands to soaring heights, Aquadive continued to make headlines where it mattered most: below the waves, riding atop the wrists of professional divers around the world. After years of being dor...
Scurfa Watches Diver One Silicon Watch Review
As the title states, this is a look at the upgraded Scurfa Diver One Silicon. You might remember the review that Michael Wolfe did on the previous version last year.. if not check it out HERE What Scurfa, and owner Paul Scurfield decided to do was give it some upgrades, and keep the price basically the same. So now you have a lumed ceramic bezel instead of aluminum, a domed sapphire crystal.,...
Gruppo Gamma Vanguard Watch Review
Gruppo Gamma Vanguard Watch Review Gruppo Gamma. It might be a brand you have heard of , and it may not be. Either way, right up front, Gruppo Gamma for the most part, produces homage watches, mostly Panerai inspired homage watches. Now, I know some people have issue with homage watches, but Gruppo Gamma has become a popular brand in the internet watch community, and I decided to review one here f...
Florijn Model 2 Watch Review
One of the nice things about being a reviewer is not only getting to check out the new models from established or luxury brands, but the newer brands that keep popping up, and being able to share with our readers. Florijn (pronounced Floor- rhine), is a new Dutch brand, and their first model is a 45mm dive watch with some nice specifications and a U.S. price of $365. The name, FLORIJN, is of Dutch...
Obris Morgan Explorer 2 Watch Review
Obris Morgan is a brand that continues to impress me. Some might say I could be a fanboy of them, and for the most part, I would say that is probably true. But there is a reason. Obris Morgan continues to build a fantastic watch for what might be the best value when it comes to micro brand dive watches. The Explorer 2, is an update to the Explorer model released in 2013. While there are not a ton ...
CLERC Hydroscaph H1 Watch Review
During my 9 years of service to the community as a police officer, I have often said to myself, “I never thought I’d be doing this when I went through the academy.” My career has blessed me with many “firsts,” and the staff at CLERC offered me yet another first: protecting the streets of a small Texas town with a CLERC Hydroscaph H1 strapped to my wrist. Within no tim...
Marc & Sons Professional Automatik Taucheruhr Diver Watch – MSD-034 Watch Review
It is always a pleasure to uncover a hidden treasure and today I would like to share my thoughts on a fantastic value found from the German based company Marc & Sons. Marc & Sons strives with their watches, “to give our customers a perfect combination of functionality, personal style and way of life along the way.” While striving to achieve this goal they also seem to keep affo...
Momentum M50 Mark II Watch Review
When it comes to dive watches, I have reviewed many here, from the affordable to the more high end, automatic and quartz. Quartz is sometimes a word that is taboo in the watch community, as many people tend to prefer automatics. But there is something to the “grab and go” quartz, at least to me, and a no nonsense dive watch. Enter the Momentum M50 Mark II, this time with a full luminou...
Zelos Chroma Watch Review
Recently, the talk of Zelos Watches has been centered around their upcoming Abyss Diver, but their second model, the Chroma is still relatively new and recently I was able to take it for a spin, and give my opinions of it. The Zelos Chroma comes in two different versions, a standard 3 hand with a solid dial and a skeleton dial. This review will be on the solid dial version. The first thing that st...
Detomaso San Marino Multifunction Diver
Today I’d like to share my thoughts on a relatively new watch model offered from Detomaso Watches. The German based company has really produced some bang for your buck watches, continuing with their goal of establishing watch collections that would highlight the owner’s persona to be captured in various venues such as; a sporting environment, normal every day life, or in the executive ...
