The biggest news in the Casio Pro Trek Smart WSD-F20 is the inclusion of “low-power GPS.” GPS in smartwatches is becoming a must-have feature, and you’ll find it in everything from products made by Garmin to Apple – and of course, Casio. The brand is not new to GPS, especially…
Watch Review
Like so many of A. Lange & Söhne’s other watches, the Richard Lange Jumping Seconds is a sublime marriage of aesthetics and engineering. It is simple to look at and operate, but underneath it hides a complex movement that has clearly been designed by thoughtful watchmakers. Well! Today, I want…
The Alpina Heritage Pilot is a large, classic aviation style watch, which replicates Alpina’s own 1926 pilot watch. It is a limited edition of 1883 pieces, 1883 being the year the Alpina brand was created. But let’s not concentrate on the past, and let’s talk about the present and this…
The Tudor Heritage Ranger, a piece based on the vintage Ranger series which first appeared in the brand’s catalogs in the 1960s. The original was meant to be a “budget buy” alternative to the Rolex Explorer — similarly to the ethos of many other Tudor watches of that era — and…
The Rolex Daytona had to make this list. It has, hands-down, been the most hyped/discussed/desired watch of 2016 – and we caught a bit of a lucky break at Baselworld, managing to post the first video review. Of course, we spent some quality time with it later in the year,…

That is to say, LIMES watches come with decades of know-how, with much of the development and production (barring the Swiss-made…
The Rolex Submariner Date reference 116610LV, aka “Hulk,” is the Rolex Submariner for men we all know and love (there are always dissenters, I imagine) but with a green ceramic bezel and green dial. It commands a price premium over the more traditional black ceramic bezel and matching black dial “classic”…
Baume et Mercier expands its Clifton collection with a dual time model that will be showcased at the upcoming Salon International de la Haute Horlogerie (Geneva, 16-20 January 2017). In line with Baume et Mercier’s philosophy of high quality and affordable luxury, the new Clifton GMT Power Reserve offers a…
All divers’ watches share certain characteristics that make them divers’ watches: unidirectional rotating bezels, secure screw-down crowns, higher-than-typical water resistance. Some of these divers’ watches, however, go the extra mile (or fathom), with cases that can descend to 3,000 or even 4,000 meters, chronographs operable at incredible depths, or high-tech…
