Last week, I attended Apple’s Wonderlust event where the company announced a slew of new iPhones (USB-C baby!) as well as the updated Apple Watch Series 9 and Apple Watch Ultra 2. Since I’m obviously a watch lover, I was most excited to check out the Ultra 2 so I took one home to test…

It’s been almost half a year since our last Vulcain review. But we love the brand, both vintage and modern, and it has something new to offer. On the 21st of September at 4:00 PM CEST, Vulcain will launch the new Nautical. This article will take a closer look at this beautiful and rare diver.…

I have written about watches for several years now, and like most of you, I am more enamored by the pure craftsmanship than time-telling itself. Sure, a watch has a base function as an instrument.

If “Tiffany blue” had it’s moment in late 2021 and early 2022, I’d venture to say that recently, a more vibrant blue is giving Tiffany a run for its money.  We’ve seen the AP Perpetual Calendar Royal Oak in blue ceramic make waves, and recently, Revolution released a Unimatic in a similar color.
