By now, it is of all likelihood that as an aBlogtoWatch reader, you are well acquainted with Bremont watches. This feisty English brand is the progeny of two brothers with a passion for aviation and a love of all things mechanical. Giles and Nick English launched Bremont a little over ten years ago and recently they completed a move to a new headquarters based in Henley, England. As with any watch brand…

The Extreme Diver is a watch I am about to gush about. Not totally and unapologetically, but Alpina’s very well-manner timepiece is a product I am going to recommend without much hesitation. The sister brand of Geneva-based Frederique Constant is doing a great job of offering a solid product at a reasonable price…

This is the Longines Conquest GMT, reference L3.687.4.566. At first glance, it looks like one of many GMTs bearing the ETA 2893 movement, but then you notice that date window. Look at where it is on the dial, all the way at the right edge (so this is something different):

Rolex is as much a lifestyle as it is a watch brand. The company is a legend, and their products are the corner-stone of an industry that sells dreams, status, quality, and ideally, value. Whether or not individual entities in the luxury industry can deliver

The Tissot Touch line of watches is no stranger to these pages. They offer practical multi-functionality through the use of a novel touch system. In this T-Race Touch, Tissot combined the Touch functionality of the Racing Touch with the looks of the T-Race while costing less than either model.

It doesn’t take a lot for a guy to go out and buy a watch from one of the major timepiece producers. Sure you need the actual cash, but purchasing a Rolex, Omega, Tag Heuer, or any of the other name brand makes is often a mental no-brainer. That’s because those brands have created a blanket of trust and sophistication behind their name.

There are reasons why people love and wear their watches. Maybe their watch has some emotional connection to an event in your past, maybe it was a gift, and if you are like us (watch nerds) you simply love having a useful mechanical toy on your wrist that also has style. While I usually readily understand my fellow watch enthusiasts, I will be the first to admit that initially…

Executed in beautiful copper-colored 18 carat gold, we have the Omega Aqua Terra GMT reference 231.50.43.22.06.002 in for review today. Defining the high end of the Aqua Terra GMT series, I was delighted when Omega offered to let me borrow one for review.

This watch would be the Victorinox Swiss Army Night Vision III, but Swiss Army decided to drop the numerals from the name and stop counting.

Nomos Glashütte is one of those brands that any watch lover comes to know in a somewhat more intermediate stage of watch appreciation. Certain ideas of what makes a fine watch are realized at this stage, and Nomos Glashütte is fully formed to cater to the people who come up the ladder.

Growing up I knew Iceland as the place whose name seemed to be juxtaposed with Greenland (as it was the warmer of the tw0) and the home of Bjork (whose music videos I did not then or now understand).

IWC likes to focus each year on one of its watch families. While we now know that 2013 is the year of the Ingénieur, with various models already announced, last year was the year of the Pilot… What may have been lost to some was the introduction of a brand new IWC Pilot Worldtimer…

I came to be aware of Mr. Pascal Savoy several years ago as a watch industry distributor, consultant, and executive. He helped bring Hublot to the United States and continues today to work with a number of fashion brands.

We wore a new Montblanc Timewalker model for a little while during SIHH, so we thought you should know a little bit about it. There seems to have been a resurgence in world-timer watches these days among many brands.
