I like yellow gold. I know this is not a popular choice by any means, but I’m not going to apologise for it or anything. There is something about the unabashed richness of the hue in question that I find impossible to ignore. Rose gold, when used sparingly, can impart incredible warmth to a timepiece. […]

Extraordinary moment. A watch that transmits all the achievements of Berthoud as the father of French marine chronometer in a brilliantly contemporary timepiece. Karl-Friedrich Scheufele has revived the mythology of one of horology’s most mythical names with beautiful modern eloquence. Karl-Friedrich Scheufele is better known as the head honcho of Chopard timepieces, but he has […]

We’ve been waiting for this watch for a very long time. Well, in a sense I guess you could say we’ve been waiting for it for 10 years, but you know what I mean. What we’re looking at right now is a one-of-a-kind timepiece - yes, a limited edition of one. The IWC Portugieser Hand […]

There are two types of change - one is the change you make because you have to and the second is the change you make because you want to. It’s a good rule of thumb to hold that the second kind is usually better than the first, because that kind of change usually means you’re […]

Who doesn’t enjoy a big old birthday party? (Rhetorical question, but just in case you really really need to know, the short answer to that is, “No one worth inviting”.)

Montblanc is definitely riding the high wind with its new line up. They are challenging prices within the industry and are indeed making the news. Like with this ultra slim, we thought it was executed exceedingly well and serves its intended purpose. The only qualm that we have with it, is its uncanny similarity to Jaeger LeCoultre's Master Compressor collection.

Is it strange to refer to a men’s watch, one crafted in masculine carbon none the less, as a beauty? Not when it comes to a de Grisogono.

Watches that commemorate anniversaries are often amongst the most desirable. Collectors still hunt for pieces of Cartier’s 150th and Patek Philippe’s 175th Anniversary collection, and probably will do the same in the near future for REVOLUTION’s own anniversary Panerai and IWC. That such celebrations often result in the creation of truly unique watches is once […]
