Hanhart 417 ES Hands-On Watch Review
Hanhart 417 ES It is no secret that I am a big fan of Hanhart Watches and this Hanhart 417 ES is no different. Taking inspiration from the past, Hanhart has recreated the 417 ES, but this one is not the exact same as 1954, beyond just modern material upgrades and of course the movement. No, this one has been modernized to 42mm. Yes, the original case size was 39mm, but now you can get it in 42mm, ...
REISER Alpen Date: A Versatile Example of Cool Design
REISER Alpen Date: A Versatile Example of Cool Design REISER is a brand that has caught our eye thanks to its new range of timepieces that are hand-assembled to the finest detail. Called the REISER Alpen Date, the series of watches makes the most of European craftsmanship to create sophisticated elegance that can be customized to fit all fashion choices and situations.

Hanhart Pioneer Preventor9 Hands-On Review
Hanhart Pioneer Preventor9 I definitely would not call the Hanhart Pioneer Preventor9 the black sheep of the Hanhart lineup, but it surely does not get the same love as say the Pioneer One, the Monocontrol, the 417ES etc. Why is that? I am not sure. Maybe because of marketing, maybe because it lacks the rotating bezle and iconic red marker, but I am here to change that. Well, not really, as this i...
Tutima M2 Pioneer Chronograph Hands-On Review
Tutima M2 Pioneer Chronograph There is no doubt that the Tutima M2 Pioneer Chronograph is an attractive watch, as most German-designed watches are. But here at Watchreport, I do not review watches the same way everyone else does. Most sites try to be wordsmiths and tend to highlight the watch in a positive way. I just don’t do that. Instead, I do, what you probably do. I look at the watch ov...
Cronus Prototype 3 Hands-On Review
Cronus Prototype 3 Every now and then, I get to introduce a brand most of you have probably never heard of. That brand is Cronus Watches and the watch I am reviewing today is the Cronus Prototype 3. Now, a few things to mention right at the beginning. 1. No, this is not actually a prototype. More on that in a bit. 2. Cronus is not a new brand, with their first watch launched quite a few years ago,...
RZE Endeavour Hands-On Watch Review
RZE Endeavour I review a lot of watches. While I always try and review a watch that I like, or at the very least see the potential in, not every watch blows my skirt up (I don’t wear skirts, but nothing wrong if you do). The RZE Endeavour is a watch that I was very much looking forward to getting in my hands. RZE is a new brand, with only one watch under their belt so far, the Endeavour...
MeisterSinger Salthora Meta X Watch Review
MeisterSinger Salthora Meta X In the world of watch collecting and horology in general, jumping hour complications are not exactly the norm. MeisterSinger only produces single-handed pieces though, and they make quite the array of models, not just one or two. The MesiterSinger Salthora Meta X I have in hand for review is a cross between a traditional jump hour complication and a dive watch of sort...
