Full Pave: A Collection Of Diamond-Studded Swiss Watches
It wasn’t until I needed to go ring shopping did I really learn to appreciate diamonds. As a guy I just always assumed diamonds were for women.,,
Fonderie 47 Transforming Cufflinks By Roland Iten
While these cufflinks are not a watch and don’t tell the time, they are closely related to the watch industry. They are also the first cool item from an interesting brand which has just officially made its debut. The brand is Fonderie 47 (which I will explain more below) and the man who designed these [...]
iPod Nano Gets Blinged Out – Proves Watches Never Went Out
A friend of mine did a funny thing. He bought himself a new iPod Nano – the 6th generation one that everyone has been wearing like a watch – and started to bling it out. Kenneth Tong is the type of guy who does this sort of thing. A fan of diamonds and other shiny [...]
Top 10 Graduation Watches
AskMen.com wanted me to come up with a list of “top 10 graduation watches.” This wasn’t easy, but I do know that a good graduation watches should be conservative, tasteful, perfect for the first job interview, and also be a sentimental item you can keep for a long time. So I can up with list [...]
Ulli Kampelmann’s Hilariously Ugly Watches
I am probably losing a load of karma points for this article. Part of me feels bad because I am in a sense directly criticizing artist Ulli Kampelmann, though I mean nothing personal. I just find her entire collection of watches so bad looking, and in just a funny way, that I had to show [...]
Andre Checa Designs Most Hideous Watch Case This Year
This is the ugliest watch case I think I have personally ever seen. What is so ironic is that the watch movement and dial itself are just fine, and totally mismatched with the watch case. This timepiece gets a “Fraggle Rock’s Finest Award” for most cartoon rock formation style watch ever. What was Andre Checa [...]
100% LED Concept Watch Will Be Available For Purchase Soon
A while ago this interesting LED watch was being displayed as a concept in Japan. I talked about it here in my excitement. Myself, and many others got really excited at the concept – though it had a few questionable characteristics that seemed to keep it from being practical. The big issue being power consumption, [...]
PVD Application To Spruce Up A Watch
This article was contributed by Marco at Matt Baily, a Canadian watch retailer. My thanks to him.

My Topman Smart Futurist Analogue Watch Article On AskMen.com
This was admittedly a tough watch to talk about. Unlike the Timex Classic Camper ($35), this Topman Smart Futurist Analogue watch is not a little beater watch dedicated to function, but rather a $40 fashion watch with more fashion backwards relevance than anything else. As a watch, there was not too much to talk about. [...]
My Modern Design Classic Watches Article On AskMen.com
This is a good article to read for anyone who has an interest in design classics as well as a bit of history behind them. Watches are a range of items that have many classic designs. These designs fit into two areas, ones that are classics because they look good, and others because they function [...]

Hello Kitty Fine Jewelry Watches for Women
I bet many of you don’t know how to feel about a line of watches emblazoned with a cartoon cat. In Diamonds. But, think about it. This is a nearly perfect creation. The Hello Kitty Fine Line of Watches proves that watches can have a sense of humor and style and still be a good [...]
Oprah Endorses Ugly Tocs Watches
Maybe I cannot actually say that Oprah herself endorses ugly watches; in all likelihood, Oprah has probably never even seen one of these watches. Regardless, her name and image is plastered all over the materials saying that her enterprise endorses these watches. So thus, it is enough for me to say that she herself does [...]
Levi’s Mix Tape Watch: A Little Tech Nostalgia On Your Wrist
It’s amusing how I have reached a point when I begin to think about my past in terms of the “then current” technology. I might look at a VHS cassette tape and think fondly to bygone years when that was how we watched movies. Such nostalgic thoughts are increasing in frequency as mainstream technology quickly [...]
