Erebus. Sounds like the word “estrus” to me and I can’t get over it.

Why are Seiko and Orient watches, particularly the dress ones so big?

I was even looking at Orient Star, and while many models are beautiful and considerable, seeing them at 41 or 42 is meh for their purpose. Don’t get m...

Seiko really hit it out of the park with the SSK

I mean for generally $300 - $400 you’re getting a GMT, a very nice jubilee bracelet (considering Seikos reputation with it), a nice design and grip on...
