Haven’t we all been there? That boring speech, that meeting that seems to be going on and on, yet to nowhere at the same time? Moments when you have that deep urge inside you to check the time, as a glimmer of hope for when it will all be over? An urge you fight profoundly […]

Not long ago, we featured a watch with a similar theme, the Graham Tourbillon Orrery. Unlike the Graham, the Astronomia Tourbillon does not feature a mini-planetarium. Nevertheless, this is still an interesting piece, albeit it may be a little difficult to digest all the details. At the first glance, the Jacob & Co Astronomia Tourbillon is aRead More

At first glance, this may seem like any other Panerai watches. And it is not difficult to see why. In the eyes of non-Panerai collectors, many Panerai pieces look strangely similar. But the Panerai Radiomir 1940 Tourbillon GMT Oro Rosso (what a mouthful) is a little different. Like what the wise folks say: “Beauty is onlyRead More

Like many other watch connoisseurs and collectors, I have a hard time imagining life with just one watch. I’m even not ashamed to admit that I usually switch watches at least once a day, and not always because I have to access a new watch “in the line of duty”. No wonder I get a […]

As a schmucky, self-proclaimed know-it-all who has never agreed with the results of ANY awards program – I stopped watching the Oscars because they infuriate me so much – the Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève is precisely the sort of affair that’s guaranteed to raise my blood pressure. I’m simply too opinionated, but at least […]

While many watch connoisseurs have a wide variety of watches and change them often, the clocks in one’s house tend to stay where they were initially placed. They truly become daily companions, timing the pace of life at one’s home. Most watch brands have, over the span of their existence, flirted casually or more seriously […]

There are independents and then there is Svend Andersen. Although born in Denmark, he was destined to become a watchmaking pioneer in Switzerland. After joining Gubelin, and spending nine years at Patek Philippe, he decided to start his own workshop…in 1979. Quite a daring move, since the Swiss watch industry wasn’t exactly in good shape […]

It is quite easy to miss the Girard-Perregaux 1966 Dual Time, but this is mainly thanks to the strength of this collection. There is that stunning chronograph, the beautiful full calendar and of course the annual calendar with equation of time (minute repeater is optional), that displays these complications in a delightfully uncomplicated way. Add […]

They often say that good things come in threes, and there is most certainly some truth to it when you are presented with not one, not two, but three examples of Girard-Perregaux’s 1st quartz watch at the same time. Although the focus on mechanical watches has pushed away much of the history of quartz watches, […]

The universe sometimes works in mysterious ways. With the passing of Robin Williams, the world has lost one of its greatest comedians.

When it comes to Panerai watches, there would only be two outcomes: either you love it, or loathe it. However, with the new 1940 Chronographs from Panerai, it may be able to change the perspective of certain critics towards this watchmaker. Or at least that was what I thought.

Tarpons are big fish, with some measuring more than eight feet long, and they are eerily industrial-looking with glassy eyes and shiny scales that give them an armor-plated appearance. They are undisputedly at the top of the food chain in Bonaire (Netherlands Antilles), where they dwarf the barracuda, and sharks are scarce. These prehistoric predators […]
