They say you never forget your first; and that’s true even with watches. My first mechanical watch was an impulse buy. It was an open heart, dressy Orient that looked great for the price it was offered. But we’re not going to talk about that today. Instead, the watch that I consider my first real […]
When MING Watches made its debut, it started with a simple yet puristic two-hand watch with a manually wound movement. They made 150 pieces of it and that was that. It was a limited edition run and would never be produced again. Because it was their first watch, they were very careful to keep the […]
Over the past couple of months, Mido seems to be on a bit of a winning streak with the new additions to their collection.

When I first saw the new Seiko 5 Sports collection late last year, it was evident that the watch was meant to be a spiritual successor to the famed Seiko SKX007. And with the project being helmed by many of the younger members of Seiko, it was clear that they wanted the watch to […]
Whether you have been a watch enthusiast for a long time or just starting to get your feet wet, the Seiko SKX is a name that you most definitely have heard of. Watch any video or read any listicle on the best starter mechanical watches and the SKX007 is bound to be on there somewhere. […]
When it comes to Swiss Made watches at an affordable, entry-level price, I feel like Mido is often overlooked. People think of brands like Longines, Tissot and Hamilton but, Mido is right up there in the same category, offering great value for money. Case in point is their latest extension to the Mido Ocean Star […]
Okay, there isn’t really much more to say about this Casio G-Shock DW5600 NASA apart from the fact that it is a special edition watch that pays homage to NASA. It is the standard DW5600, all in white, with the NASA logo on the dial and the globe engraved on the back. However, I think […]
