What WristBuzz is, who built it, and how the watch news aggregation works. The mission, the curation rules, and the editorial principles behind the daily feed and the wiki.
The 13 watch publications WristBuzz aggregates from: Hodinkee, Fratello, Monochrome, Worn & Wound, Revolution, Time+Tide, Quill & Pad, SJX Watches, Deployant, Two Broke Watch Snobs, Teddy Baldassarre, WatchAdvice, and aBlogtoWatch. Browse all articles per source.
Watches & Wonders, Windup, Phillips, Christie's, Sotheby's, Couture and more. The watch year laid out in chronological order, with countdowns to each event and one-tap 'Add to Google Calendar' buttons so the dates land on your phone before they sneak up. Past events drop off automatically.
Movement-by-movement reference: the calibers that power the watches you actually wear. Rolex 3235 and 3285, Omega 8800/8900 Master Co-Axial, the Swiss workhorse ETA 2892-A2, the microbrand standard Miyota 9015. Specs, history, which watches use each, and what to know before service.
Definitive guides to the watches that defined modern collecting: the Rolex Submariner, the Patek Nautilus, the AP Royal Oak, the Speedmaster Moonwatch, the Heuer Monaco, the Cartier Tank, the Reverso, plus 70+ other references. History, design heritage, references, and the cultural context that turned each into an icon.
Browse watches by style category rather than by brand: dive watches, GMT, chronograph, dress, field, pilot, integrated bracelet, perpetual calendar, ultra-thin, skeleton. Each style page surfaces the canonical references in that category and the latest news mentioning them.
Curated top-10 lists from the WristBuzz team across categories: best dive watches under €5,000, best GMT watches, best dress watches, best chronographs, best microbrand picks. No affiliate placements, no rankings for hire, just the watches we would actually buy with reasoning for each pick.
Side-by-side head-to-head reviews: Submariner vs Fifty Fathoms, Royal Oak vs Nautilus, Speedmaster vs Daytona, Rolex vs Tudor. Spec sheets, history, pros and cons, and an opinionated verdict on which one to buy.
