2003’s Swatch James Bond 007 40th Anniversary Collection Of Watches

This is a slightly older collection (from 2003), and the reason I talk about it is because Swatch plays an important role in the new James Bond Movie: 007 Quantum of Solace. Further still, there will be a new collection of Swatch watches dedicated to the 007 villains, all to celebrate Bond’s newest villain; Dr. [...]

Evisu Jeans Of Japan Adds Swiss Watches To Its Fashionable Line Up

You typically see fashion designers from Europe use the Japanese to make their watches (especially the movements). Evisu has turned the tables on this, and is a Japanese designer that is using the Swiss to make their new lines of watches, which look pretty cool from a fashion perspective.
Evisu is mainly a clothes and shoes [...]

New Laco Marine Style Watch Aims Squarely At Cartier Pasha Seatimer

I could not find the name of this new Laco watch. Perhaps if I spoke German that would be possible or I am just too lazy to write to Roger Ruegger, from who excellent (German) website I found the picture. No doubt I will discover it soon enough and update this article, I hope. Roger, [...]

Sinn EZM4 Achilles Watch For The Medical Professional Or Doctor

When I didn’t include doctors in a list of professionals that tend to be watch lovers I got a bit of slack. In response, I will discuss a watch that will appeal to watch loving doctors as it is especially made for them. While there are a good deal of nice and fancy watches out [...]

Six Professionals That Tend To Be Watch Lovers

Enjoying watches is typically not a solo activity. Watch lovers like myself feel the need constantly discuss or mentions watches, much to the dismay of non-watch lovers. But when you meet a fellow horological enthusiast, the conversation quickly becomes lively as shared interests intermingle. In my time I have realized that certain types of people [...]

Automatic Movement Based Seiko Prospex Marinemaster SBDX001 Is Worthy Swiss Competitor

This watch is not to be confused with the other Seiko Prospex Marinemaster watches that I have been talking about. Those don’t have automatic movements, but rather Kinetic Direct Drive or Spring Drive movements. For example, I spoke of the similarly named Seiko SBDD001, which has a similar name, but different look and movement. The [...]

Ernst Benz Shows China Love With The Beijing 2008 Limited Edition Chronoscope Watch

Typically speaking I am not a huge fan of anything that Mario Batali (or other Food Network chefs) promotes. The large, overly orange man is one of several “brand ambassadors” of Swiss Ernst Benz watches. Accordingly, Ernst Benz also offers a large, overly orange version of its popular Valjoux 7750 based watch named the Chronoscope, [...]

Review of the Citizen Aqualand JV0010-08E On WatchReport.com

Up for review today is the Citizen JV0010-08E, also known as the 20th Anniversary Aqualand. It’s a solar-powered dive watch/computer, sporting both analog hands and a medium-sized digital display. Citizen has made a lot of dive computers and watches over the years, but this is the first Aqualand that uses their Eco-Drive solar technology.

Nautica N16529G Watch Flatters High Style Riveted Style For Designer Looks

Nautica is purely a lower-end fashion watch. Having said that, I can still appreciate a decent looking release from them. The vast majority of their watches are between $200-$300. They don’t do much in terms of original designs, but rather pick and choose from what they feel are copyable looks. I don’t have a problem [...]

Mondaine Sportline Alarm Watch Quick Review: Easy Time Reminder

I picked up a Mondaine Sportline Alarm watch in black recently. I’d known about the “Swiss Railways” watch company before, but never took the opportunity to own one. They have an appearance similar to Xemex watches, which I tend to really like (I do own a Xemex Offroad with Arabic numerals). Both watches have what [...]
