Swatch Turners Scarlet Sunset SO28Z700

Swatch coming out with quite a banger with this one. Seamless how they integrated the sunset, and is such a fun piece. Looks like I’ve found my next N...

Timex Expedition’s are fun! And now these are a fun regret

A nice matte green dial, with a bead blasted case, such a great combo! Acquired these a few years ago, though sadly I let both go as I got a green dia...

Seiko with a Swiss movement?

Reference: Seiko 5328 Never thought this would exist but it does, and no the “Swiss” isn’t engraved on the dial. Rather it’s on the movement after you...

I’d go for the Nodus. In my opinion the islander designs are too derivative of the actual Seikos and the Nodus seems to bring a more original design. But the color of the Islander is popping 👌🏽

Thanks!

Yes quite a special crown. And has a great vintage vibe. I was thinking the same, love a panda but a different colorway is fun. Almost pulled the trigger on the Timex Q Chronograph, but it is a typical Panda color

commented on What do you recommend? Erebus Vs. Henry Archer ·

I’m quite surprised how well Jody has made his watches starting from scratch, and actually executed! Many YouTubers made watches, well one from Indonesia started a kickstarter that didn’t pan out. But I do believe Erebus is serious in being a watch brand. Their first watch was a common diver, very similar to another microbrand Helm Vanuatu I believe, but the Ascent is another level. A GADA, with Grand Seiko vibes, and an abundance of dials.

Good luck with your choice, mate!

commented on Who do you watch? (Pun not intended) ·

Teddy and Federico are great to watch. Nico is mainly entertaining but it’s now mostly hearing him scream anything on his mind gets tiring. Adrian has turned a bit upscaled I guess after being part of AET and similar style of presenting his ideas with Nico.

I’d much rather watch people who take a calmer and more reserved approach to their opinions which is brought by This Watch, That Watch. Swiss Watch Gang is a more energetic approach but really goes deep into unknown watches, also Watchbox Studios is bringing out content similar to what Hodinkee used to be.

Awesome mate! A piece from my country of Indonesia. I myself have the Meca Revolt, which just had a collaboration with secondeseconde. Love the brand and awesome to see them going out in the wild. This piece is sold out already as well! Might get a rerelease mid this year

Yeah mate I got it on the Xbox Series S, great game and the graphics are top notch! One thing missing is the legends mode from TW 14, gotta miss the old days of playing offline games. Everything seems to be online oriented nowadays

What do you think?

An ace for me, especially the seconds. Timex milking Snoopy, but they do make great pieces

A Budget Americaine: the Coach W502B

A watch made in the 2000s, this fashion watch deserves some praise. It has its own style of design for the dial (at least to my knowledge), and the cu...
