Armand Nicolet J09 | Watch Review
Armand Nicolet J09 Armand Nicolet is a brand that I know in name, but not overly familiar with their watches. It is not one that I see the watch community post about on social media often, such as Instagram or Facebook Watch groups. After receiving this model for review, the Armand Nicolet J09 Day/Date, I wondered why this brand has not been getting the love it deserves. Now, keep in mind, I perso...
Erroyl Regent Nero | Watch Review
Erroyl Regent Nero As many of my readers know by now, I am a dive watch guy. Rarely do I step outside the box as I am a creature of habit. Every so often, a really cool dress watch will come along that makes me take pause and at least think about stepping outside my comfort zone if only for a day or two at a time here and there. Erroyl Watches has recently released the Regent Collection and I have...
Erroyl Heritage Royal 300 Watch Review
Let’s get dressed up!!! That is something I do not say often. These days I do not have to get dressed up that often, but I can say that putting on the Erroyl Heritage 300 had me looking at the girlfriend and saying lets get dressed up and go for a night on the town. Maybe you get dressed up more often, whether for work or play, and a nice affordable dress watch will fit right into your rotat...
Panzera Breuer 44 Review
Panzera has released their second model, the Breuer 44. The Breuer, which I describe as a more classic dress watch, but updated to a modern size, is much different than their first offering, which was a Flieger model. The reason that I mention this, is while I love dive watches, so many new companies start off with dive watches. Panzera has gone in the opposite direction. Because, after all, we al...
Rec Watches Cooper C5
As mentioned in my previous review of the Mark I M3, wristwatch enthusiasts Christian Mygh and Jonathan Kamstrup founded REC Watches back in 2013. The concept behind REC Watches is based on three phases, which are Recover, Recycle and Reclaim. The process starts with the Recovery phase in which old, no longer used items are identified through various avenues such as; frequenting barns, scrap yards...
TW Steel Slim Line Collection
Recently, I ran across an article about the best thin watches for men. Some of the names mentioned were Christopher Ward, Zenith, and Piaget amongst others. Each were truly thin and noted high quality specifications, but none of them retailed under $500 USD. What about individuals needing a more cost effective alternative? Personally, I always try to find value and quality, which I believe TW Stee...

Eterna KonTiki Automatic Chronograph
From years of watch gazing on various forums, I became intrigued with Eterna and many of its models. One in particular continued to stand out to me among the crowd; the Eterna KonTiki Automatic Chronograph (ref. 1240.41.63.0219). As fate would have it, I was able to pick up a minty specimen from a trusted collector. Eterna was founded in 1856 by Urs Schild, but the company didn’t become popu...

Kentex Marineman Hands On Watch Review
A friend of mine introduced me to the Kentex brand, and put me in touch with the owner. From talking to the owner by email and doing some research on the info he sent to me, I found out that Kentex has actually been around since 1989. They started as Kentex Time, in 1989, as an OEM manufacturer, and in 1998, they started producing watches under the Kentex brand. The model I reviewed is the Ke...
