Hamilton Below Zero Diver Watch: Art Deco Industrial Diving Instrument Design

Being an “entry level” nice watch from the Swatch Group, Hamilton has the budget to experiment a great deal with designs.

Interest Grows For The RSW Outland Watch: Pride Of Post Modernism

Near the time of its release, I talked about RSW Outland Watch, and mentioned how much I liked the use of disc displays rather than hands.

Review of the Seiko SKA367 Kinetic Dive Watch From WatchReport.com

When you first see the Seiko SKA367, the yellow face and high-contrast black hands leap out at you. The dial is eminently readable, and a very cheerful yellow color. The crown also has a yellow highlight band that matches the dial and lends the watch a nice stylistic coherence.
