Often the best watches are those that come with a story attached. Sometimes that story can be attached to momentous events or achievements the watch is associated with, or the accomplishments of those who wore it.

This is such a great watch. Honestly. I can’t think of many (if any) Swiss-made watches that offer such a punchy package for this sort of price. Not only do you get the impressive Powermatic 80 movement (more than three days of power reserve rocks) in a good-looking, well-made 300m diver, you get nice little … ContinuedThe post VIDEO: Is the Tissot Seastar 1000 Powermatic 80 the best-value diver of 2018? appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

Aside from that, Kaz has put together an excellent eBay listing guide for a handful of Soviet watches and Mike contemplates freezing himself artificially for a few hundred years with his Orient Mako.... all in a day's work, of course.

Blancpain’s complete calendar moonphase timepieces are some of the most iconic watches of the brand. It is in essence a triple calendar with moonphase display. But in addition to the traditional layout, it also adds another complication, a 24 hour hand in a second timezone.

Every year, the Bell & Ross design team goes nuts with an incredible and (sadly) hypothetical vehicular creation.
