Panerai has something that no other brand has this much of. It is one of the rarest commodities in watchmaking, and many watchmakers lose sleep over the lack of it. That commodity is space. You’d expect a Panerai to be big and bulky since it is an essential part of the DNA of the brand. […]

Even manufacturers of die-hard, professional military watches like Marathon and Stocker & Yale don’t do it: camouflage the dial of their watches. This is for good reason since legibility is key when entering a war zone. But like many divers watches that never see water apart from the occasional pool, many military inspired watches will […]

Diamonds on a Bell & Ross sound a bit like diamonds on a Panerai: not done often nor suited for the style of watch. Yet Panerai did do a limited edition with diamond set numerals, their only official endeavor that incorporated these precious gemstones, and Bell & Ross, well, they have also embraced diamonds – […]

During the years after the launch of the Tank Divan in 2002, Cartier concentrated on other models like the Santos 100 and Calibre de Cartier, two watches that were clearly developed for the mens market.

The Rolex Submariner, the Omega Seamaster Professional and the Cartier Santos Galbee are classics that are more often than not worn on a bracelet.

Nope, your eyes are not deceiving you. Although it’s not called the Lamborghini Gallardo anymore, this is very much based on the car that saved the fabled Italian carmaker from extinction.

The forest green dial makes a striking first impression, but the Grand Seiko Evolution 9 SLGH033 has more to offer. Refined finishing, high-beat mechanics, and comfortable proportions make its appeal extend well beyond its looks. What We Love: Rich forest green dial with intricate birch texture. Architectural case design with beautifully contrasting finishes. Comfortable fit with useful tool-free micro-adjustment. What We Don’t: Bracelet design could have a more distinctive identity. Would welcome an additional strap option. Case thickness may limit clearance beneath tighter cuffs. Overall Rating: 9/10 Value for Money: 9.25/10 Wearability: 9/10 Design: 8.75/10 Build Quality: 9/10 Like many avid watch enthusiasts, I hold Grand Seiko in high regard. They bring so many different elements to the table that make watchmaking not only enjoyable for us collectors and enthusiasts, but also make us appreciate the extensive craftsmanship that goes on behind the scenes. This, as I’m sure you may have noticed, is a common approach within Japanese watchmaking. Being a long-time fan of Seiko as well, I see very similar DNA in the two brands, and rightly so, as Grand Seiko was born to offer a more luxurious and higher-end calibre of watchmaking, building on Seiko’s origins. The identity of Grand Seiko’s Evolution 9 collections started with the brand’s SLGH002 released in 2020. What really grabs my attention with Grand Seiko is their attention to detail, craftsmanship, and how...

What We Know Cabot Watch Company (better known as CWC) has launched a new take on its classic military-spec dive watch, this time inspired by some of the earliest watches CWC supplied to the British Ministry of Defense. The result is the CWC Navy Eighty CD-1 Diver, which blends one of the most sought-after and rare early CWC unit watches with a host of modern updates to make for a compelling — and spec-heavy — take on a classic formula. At a high level, this latest release from CWC is not a radical departure from previous CWC offerings. You still get the familiar (and wonderful) 41mm fixed-bar Royal Navy Diver case, with its shrouded crown, chunky rounded lugs, and broad, grippy bezel. You also still get the familiar dial layout originally prescribed by the MOD for watches in the 1950s, plus a handful of vintage-inspired details that help the watch stand apart from the standard Royal Navy Diver available today. These include a handset as close as I’ve seen to the original 1980 CWC-issued divers, including the diamond-tipped luminous seconds hand (a feature largely replaced over the years by a Speedmaster-style teardrop second’s hand) and an old-school, non-serif, non-oval CWC logo. There are big changes here, but they largely come down to finishing and material choices. Possibly the most dramatic update is the move to applied markers with metal surrounds, but the switch to a ceramic bezel is also impactful. To my knowledge, this is the first time CWC has used a cer...

Just 18 mph. The pace of a pygmy hippopotamus at full chat, a sidewinder snake late for a meeting, a badger sprinting for the bus or, apparently, a Tyrannosaurus Rex in pursuit of a YJ Jeep Wrangler. That's how fast, or rather slow, I'm trying to drive down this narrow lane in the heat of competition. Yet, as the little red Alfa Romeo meticulously meanders its way through a calm corner of Cotswolds countryside, a drop of blood trickling along a grey artery between yellow sun-baked wheat fields, there is real tension inside the car. It might not be fast and furious, but this is not slow and soporific either. The concentration is palpable in the cabin. Sweat is forming on brows, and it's only partly because of a lack of air conditioning. In the navigator's seat is Matt Dereve (@SoulSpec), who is doing a valiant job of juggling directional diagrams, distances, and a stopwatch, while I try to heed his instructions and match them to the needle on the Veglia dial. This is genuinely tricky and, what's more, it's Matt's first ever rally. There's also a podium place on the line. Welcome to the HERO-ERA Rally for the Ages; a rather brilliant first rung on the historic motorsport ladder… Browsing a rack of greeting cards in a local shop the other day, I picked up one that said something along the lines of: 'Money can't buy you happiness. But it can get you a 288 GTO and a 3970, which is close enough for me' Droll (and, like I say, the wording may have differed a smidgen), but I thi...
