Automatic Watch Reviews
Automatic movements are self-winding, meaning they are powered by the movement of your wrist. They are the most popular type of mechanical movement and are found in watches of all price ranges.
Hiding within is the new time-telling-ticker, the Tumbler. This is an automatic, Sellita-powered titanium watch paired with a matching titanium bracelet
This is the Sternglas Naos Pro, the second pro watch I’ve come across, and the first one that’s well under $1000 USD.
Yet again, San Martin has worked some witchcraft and created another seemingly magical dial for another astonishing price tag.
Available on several different straps, the Lumatik series features a fully polished stainless steel case, with either “Elegant Beige” or light blue dials.
What’s small, plastic, contracted by the US Department of Defence, and contains radioactive material used in Thermonuclear Weaponry?
What’s more, unlike the Tsuyosa, this watch wasn’t made of stainless steel. Instead, it shipped with a far more ‘advanced’ Super Titanium case. I had to take a look at it.
Which ones are actually the best? Which have that special sauce that makes them worth considering?
San Martin’s “Original Designs” line veers away from their usual homage game and delivers something fresh.
This is the new Nova 37mm from Zelos. That’s right, Zelos. The same brand that brought you big-ass tool watch designs.
At 43.3 millimeters in diameter, and coming in a range of bright bold colorways, this particular model is less of a shrinking violet and more of a Jolly Green Giant.
Zelos decided to throw a whole heap of exotic materials and textures at this timepiece and flog it at a hair under $1000. Does it work?
I’m about to reveal Seiko’s secret formula. The obscure, genius, groundbreaking strategy that keeps this watchmaking juggernaut at the very top of the pecking order.
Once you pay over a grand, most watches are built to a similar standard (the recent Tag-Kith collab notwithstanding). I mean, £1,500 for a plastic watch? Are you kidding?
Orient's global press release for this watch was "a diver design model with offset crown" - hardly inspirational…
There’s a little something for everyone in Orient’s dress watch line-up. A good example is reference RA-AK0803Y10B reviewed here.
Which Orient watches are truly the best? I’ve explored the entire range to find the best value options!
First impressions are good; the watch is pleasing to the eye and feels reassuringly weighty, with various visual enhancements setting it apart.
Citizen’s famous Promaster line has been lauded since its introduction in 1989, and I’ve finally got my hands on perhaps their most time-tested models; the NY0040.
This model exemplifies Timex’s focus on unique design and aesthetic appeal, targeting a niche segment of watch enthusiasts.
If you like watches but don’t want to spend much, pay attention. You see, I’ve found a great-looking budget Seiko that’s under $100.
Believe it or not, you're looking at that very mistake right now…notice anything strange?
I wish I'd remembered to turn my mic on when unboxing. The words that came out of my mouth were "this is FIT!"…
What happens when the worst watch brand on social media produces a complex, mechanical watch?
Not long ago, I was looking for a capable Seiko diver that could replace my SKX as a Seiko with perfect dimensions…
This is the 'Field,' and despite the unimaginative name, you'll notice pretty quickly that this watch is far from generic.
To try and find out what the crack is, I've got my hands on a couple of pieces from one of the most popular of these oddly-named brands; Stuhrling Original.
Indeed, the Boderry Admiral is titanium cased, with the tell-tale dark grey hue of this trendy lightweight material.
