Boschett Harpoon White Dial Watch Review and Video Review
If you belong to watch forums or follow boutique watch companies, you have undoubtedly heard of Boschett and their Harpoon model. Released in 2012, Boschett quickly sold out of the 100-production run, and dive watch fans have been waiting impatiently for the second batch. Well, finally the wait is over! Boschett has two new versions of the Boschett Harpoon, a black dial and a white lume dial. Besi...
Lum-Tec G5 Watch Review and Video Review
With spring here and summer right around the corner, it’s only fitting that we review another Lum-Tec watch that will fit the seasons. The G series from Lum-Tec is definitely a watch with some hot weather flavor. The collection boasts a total of 10 different color styles to choose from, 4 of which are PVD coated casings. Apart from their distinct colors, the skeletonized case itself is one f...
Mont Blanc Meisterstuck Heritage Perpetual Calendar
Unveiled at SIHH, the Mont Blanc Meisterstuck Heritage Perpetual Calendar just glows with class. The word Meisterstuck, when translated into English means masterpiece and this perpetual calendar is just that. The watch is available in two versions – 18kt rose gold, and stainless steel. To be honest, I found it odd for such a high complication to be offered in steel but Mont Blanc clearly wan...
Tissot PRS 516 Extreme
The Tissot PRS 516 Extreme is a great example of a rugged tool watch. The case construction is very angular and this serves to make the watch look bigger than it is. The case is, by no means, small with dimensions of 44.4mm, excluding the main crown and chronograph pushers. This watch wears high on the wrist as the height of the watch stands at 15.73mm. I must say, when I first saw this watch it k...

On the other hand, we have Blancpain who has released possibly the sexiest, classic styled watch that is going to come out for 2014 period. I don’t want to jump the gun but it is clear that if this watch is to be upstaged by another three-handed beauty; that watch will ...

Audemars Piguet has just released yet another masterpiece in their Royal Oak Offshore collection – the Royal Oak Offshore Tourbillon Chronograph. If this watch doesn’t have the makings of a grail watch for the countless AP admirers out there, I’d be most surprised. The Royal Oak Offshore is the oversized version to the Royal Oak and since 2008 has really been on the move employin...
Hublot Big Bang Jeans Ceramic 44mm
It must be an established fact by now that Hublot pushes boundaries in horology. The new Big Bang Jeans in ceramic is a weekender’s dream come true. The watch has that intrinsic cool factor without having to try. Let me first state that Hublot isn’t the first brand to release a watch with a strap made from jeans material, but it certainly is the first to charge over $15,000 for it. The...

Archer Sterling Review
Archer Watches is a tiny independent watch brand located in St.Thomas, Ontario, Canada. Archer Watches is a one man operation, its staff consisting solely of a watchmaker named Al Jenskey. I had the pleasure of meeting Al at a Timezone dinner this past October and not only did I enjoy the opportunity to see much of the Archer range in person, but also to experience Al’s passion for watches a...
Dress watches to know
Along with the slow-moving trend back towards thin watches, dress watches have also been enjoying some increased amount of the spotlight. For whatever reason, brands are returning to the simple and classic stying of 50’s and 60’s to inspire new and modern timepieces. Here are just a few models that stand out for being beautiful, simple and aestetically versatile enough to suit a wide r...
