An exploration of watches and watchmaking
The Christopher Ward C60 Trident Bronze Ombré, released in 2018, is one of my favorite watches. CW released a new version in 2021, and I had to do a comparison of the two models. In the BATTLE OF THE BRONZE, I pit the Christopher Ward C60 Trident Ombré Mark 2 against the Mark 3 in […]
A comparison review of the Feynman Timekeepers One and Cove models. Instead of a typical review for already heavily reviewed watches, I decided to put myself in the position of having to choose one to keep. The watches and characteristics are summarized below, but the video contains the finer details.
I really like the Pagani Design PD-1651, but as mentioned in my review and reality check video, I wanted/needed to change some things: swap the seconds hand, fix the misaligned bezel, and remove the cyclops lens.

Timex found great success with the 2019 reissue of the 1979 Timex Q and to capitalize has followed up […]
The Marloe Morar has been an internally controversial and surprisingly pleasing watch to experience. To be upfront, I really like Marloe Watch Company, their philosophy, and especially their design thinking. Every release is unique, not derivative of other brands (that is saying something these days). Each watch is identifiable as a Marloe of common origin, […]
Although I thought I would never like a bronze watch, the Christopher Ward C60 Trident Bronze Ombré has become the absolute favorite watch in my collection. This follow-up to the initial review is something I have been meaning to do and was spurred on by a comment on the original review video. The review update […]
Here we are taking a look at Carty silicone rubber straps. I really like rubber straps on dive watches. The watches in this post are a pair of Christopher Ward Trident Pro 600s, but we will focus on the straps. https://youtu.be/2qOoWh8pxXA Like the Maikes straps I previously reviewed, Carty is another low-cost strap distributor with […]
