Achievement Unlocked: How did you manage that?

I don’t know how either. One day I looked down and there it was: a knick in the titanium bezel and a scratch in the sapphire crystal. It’s faint, but...

Bertucci A-11t Americana: First impressions

Well I finally bit the bullet and bought a watch. Decided on the Bertucci because it’s a US brand which actually assembles in the country (as an Ameri...

Do G-Shocks count as tool watches?

I mean, I think they are. They have a purpose other than looking pretty (getting beat up), they can time whatever you need it to, they’re used by prof...

commented on Bulova Lunar Pilot Hidden Date? (S P A C E) ·

Shame. Oh well, that's not going to stop me. Just saw they're making a 43 mm one so I'ma hold out for that. 

Great looking watch btw. Love the strap 

commented on First look the new 43 mm Bulova lunar pilot!! Coming soon to my channel ·

Yes. Amazing looking. When will it come out, and how much cash do I need to part with?

commented on Second hand at 12 when setting time? ·

I didn't realize people *didn't* do this. It's a great way to make sure the minute hand is perfectly aligned with the markers (unless you have a Timex, then you just pray)

commented on James Brand x Timex Expedition ·

imo, and as a Timex shill, I think it's nice. Love the dial and the 200 water resistance is excellent.

I think it looks great but it's also up to you

commented on New Timex Waterbury Ocean Watches look amazing ·

Now that you mention that, I have noticed my weekender tends to do that a bit. I always thought it was me moving the crown when pushing it back in lol

commented on Opinions on Pagani Design? ·

I never realized how many of these name brands copy from each other. I've always just kind of assumed they made their own thing. 

I'm new to this watch thing if you couldn't tell. I always assume that it was big brands that make their own designs and cheap Chinese brands that copy. But that patek Philippe is uncanny save for the date function. Besides, now I think about it I do own a Invicta pro diver. And that's just a Rolex submariner clone. And a good one at that

commented on why are Timex's so expensive for what you get ·

Not all of them are bad values. I personally use my timex weekender for work. I just personally think $270 for a watch that will drive me nuts with the non-hacking movement is a poor value

Dive Bezel + Chronograph makes no sense

What's the point? The Dive Bezel is ment to be an easy to read chronograph anyway, so I really don't get why some companies slap both on there. Any th...
