Big & Bold – Unimatic U3-F Review

A closer look at the Italian Microbrand’s U3 series. Back in my younger days, I remember clamouring to the television in the evenings after rushing my homework earlier in the afternoon.

I can’t remember which generation of the … Continue reading Big & Bold – Unimatic U3-F Review

A Darker Twist – Seiko SSC917P1 Prospex Speedtimer “Night Vision” Review

Seiko calls this one the “Night Vision” – I call it the Seiko Lightsaber. Am I the only one that sees the minute hand in this manner? Looking at the thumbnail of the post, chances are that you’ve seen this one before, or may even be familiar with it.

Pot of Gold at the End of the Rainbow? – Seiko Rainbow Daytona “Clear” Mod Review

The world of watch mod-ing offers boundless possibilities, but should you take the plunge?

To Boldr-ly Go Where No Man Has Gone Before – Boldr Venture Field Medic II Review

If I had to introduce Boldr as a television series, it would be Star Trek. Can the Venture Field Medic II be the “Enterprise” of the watch world? If I had to pick, I would say that I’m more of a Star Wars than Star Trek kind of guy. You really can’t beat Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan battling it out with Darth Maul to the tune … Continue reading To Boldr-ly Go Where No Man Has Gone Before – Boldr Venture Field Medic II Review

A Chronograph on a Journey – Review: Aries Gold Journey 1025

In the blink of an eye, we’ve somehow reached October and the end of the year looms near. Strangely however, it feels like an entire passage of time has just magically vanished. Under more normal times, I’m sure I would have seen multiple Instagram stories of friends holidaying in far off, exotic locations, as colleagues scramble to clear their annual vacation leave. These however, are … Continue reading A Chronograph on a Journey – Review: Aries Gold Journey 1025
