Ultra Limited UTS Adventure II Watch With Benzinger Decorated Valgranes Movement: Available Now

I’d like to say that this UTS Adventure II watch with unique Benzinger decorated movement represents the past and future of German watch making. But that would be incorrect. In fact this watch represents the legacy of German watch making by combining two major areas where German watch makers have excelled over the Swiss.
UTS is [...]

Citizen Campanola Grand Complication Watch Model AH4010-58L Available

The Grand Complication line of Citizen Campanola watches houses the most complex movement that Citizen has to offer in the Campanola range (their highest range). I glowingly mention the Citizen Campanola range of watches with frequency, and hope that more of these watches become available. Until that point however, we are limited to the limited [...]

Trendy Ocean7 G-2 Diver Chronograph Watch With Carbon Fiber Face Available

I’ve got to hand it to Ocean7 for doing it right. What right you ask? Well starting a watch company and successfully selling watches online. While selling online directly to the consumer while taking fan feedback into consideration is not a novel concept, it is in the watch world, and that is exactly what Ocean7 [...]

Rare Grand Seiko GMT Spring Drive Watch Available For Sale

One of my favorite watches that I describe as the Japanese Rolex GMT Master II is available on eBay as lightly pre-owned. I discussed the Grand Seiko GMT Spring Drive watch here.

Choice Pick Tiffany & Co. Streamerica Watch For Sale

Coming along only once in a while the Tiffany & Co. Steamerica hits eBay again. This is, in my opinion, the nicest version of the watch with the full metal bracelet, dark gray face, and simple face (some other versions featured world timers). These watches age really well. The high quality steel takes a beating [...]

Ultra Rare Temption Cherubin-R Watch Available On eBay: Humorous Typo Included, Or Clever Auction Angle?

Bell & Ross BR-02 PVD Diver’s Instrument; Beautiful Low Price On eBay

Bell & Ross is doing something right. In fact, they are doing several things right. The French watch designer has been taking the watch world by storm since the release of the BR-01 Instrument watch series several years ago. While the BR-01 took inspiration from plane instruments, the BR-02 is all diver. The wearable submersible [...]

Rare Temption PVD Classic Formula Rally Chronograph Watch Available On eBay

As much as I love Temption watches, I don’t see them pop up very often. The boutique German watch maker only produces 700 watches each year, few of which ever reach American shores.

Artist Profile: The Imagery Of Time With Olga Narozhna

People starve to be different. The least likely of places you’d expect find individualism was Soviet-controlled Ukraine in the 1970s. Let me tell you about finding uniqueness among the seemingly generic, and a person that discovers and displays it.
It was purely accidental that I learned about Olga Narozhna and her work. She is a one [...]

Steampunk Art Watch Evolution On eBay

From popular artist Olga Narozhna comes the next piece in her steampunk line of handcrafted watch art. Her last piece was similar but used a digital, rather than analog timepiece. This time she incorporates a traditional mechanical watch with an elaborate skeletonized movement. I think this time she really nailed it when she used an [...]

Lucien Piccard (LP) Celano Ceramic Watches Available

I was smitten with ceramic watches when I learned about the Chanel J12 watch. The popular designer watch was high quality and looked amazing with its never scratch glossy bracelet and band. The price of the watch was something I was not too happy about. Like other Chanel goods, it demanded a high premium for [...]

Increasing Interest In Citizen Campanola Watches

Unlike most watch companies, Citizen has been selling watches in large volumes for sometime and understands the importance of advertising. So when they began to sell their high-end Campanola line of watches, they advertised it in watch magazines and other places interested consumers might have eyes. The Campanola line is vastly different than anything Citizen [...]

Steampunk Art As Wearable Watch

The steampunk revolution continues to churn quietly as more products and crafts are being made in the distinctive motif. Sometimes being called “clockwork” or “Neo-Victorian” the style of using watch gears, movements, leather, bolts, and other implements of industrialization is becoming much more popular. While the steampunk genre has been around for a while, it [...]

Rare Round-Faced Citizen Campanola Perpetual Calendar On eBay

The key point of interest on a perpetual calendar watch is command of cosmic time. Knowing the date, month, leap year, year, and simply the time, gives the wearer some ethereal sense of reassurance. The funny thing is that you can get most of this information on a $150.00 digital watch, but it really just [...]

Botta Design Watches For Minimalist Perfection

Minimalism to me, means displaying as little as possible to be effective. A watch like the museum face on a Movado is barren. With just hands and a single indicator at the top, I never have any idea what time it is, at least not at a glance. There is no way to be really [...]

Temption Cherubin Watch: Dynamic And Unique Rattrapante

How nice it would be to have a larger availability of Temption watches. With just two authorized dealers in the entire US, you aren’t likely going to see Temption watches very often, which is a shame considering how beautiful these watches are. I have a Temption CGK203 Watch which I reviewed here. The results were [...]

Patek Philippe Ref. 5960P Chrono Calendar: Nice And Classy If You Can Afford It

Patek Philippe is a star among watch makers. Almost like a higher class Rolex, Patek stays high among the uber-elite, and sneers down upon the lower classes of watches and people. This is where you get the sales people who treat you like your father cleaned their father’s bathrooms. Regardless of their attitude, Patek Philippe [...]
