The Tenero Automatic Stands Out from the Crowd-funded Crowd

By Patrick Kansa February 22, 2016

As Matt and I have both mentioned in the past, we have noticed a lot of the same sort of watch being produced on Kickstarter (generally thin quartz two- or three-handers with a lot of marketing fluff). So, to see something crop up that has a bit more original of a design, then that is the sort of thing that makes you sit up and take notice. I am not saying that the Tenero Automatic will set the horological world on fire. It should, however, catch the eye of the those on the hunt for an interesting and affordable watch.

By Patrick Kansa February 21, 2016

Welcome to Watch Video Rewind, our regular survey of interesting watch, watch-making, and/or watch-related videos that we have run across. Today, I’ve got some videos around clocks and gears, custom straps, and a video review of one of our favorite brands, Prometheus.

Watching the Web for February 20, 2016

By Patrick Kansa February 20, 2016

Yes, that’s right – it’s time for our weekly wrapup series, Watching the Web. Here, we look though some of the other watch-centric web sites and highlight a few that we think merit your attention. We also get to show you what was most popular over the last week or so on our own site. From the wide web, we have the Bovet Recital 18 Shooting Star, the new Seiko Prospex divers, and a Hoptroff review (which are few and far between). From our articles, we have articles about the Ventus Black Kite, the new ManchesterWatchWorks Armada, and the Deep Blue Sea Quest that are top of the charts.

The Division Furtive Type 50 Sets the Time in Lights

By Patrick Kansa February 19, 2016

Well, as I mentioned when I finally got our long-awaited review of the Division Furtive Type 40…

Spending Time with the Division Furtive Type 40

By Patrick Kansa February 18, 2016

This review is one that has been a long, long time coming. While we tend to work to get things turned around rather quickly on reviews, this is one that slipped down the queue time and again. This is because, you see, this Division Furtive Type 40 is actually my own watch – the first (and only) watch I backed on a Kickstarter project – and as such, got bumped in priority for those coming in on a loan. Well, that oversight is being corrected today. Even though the Division Furtive Type 40 is no longer available, it’s review will set the stage for a later model in the lineup what we will also be reviewing.

Whenever a new iteration of the Christopher Ward C60 is introduced, I pay rather close attention. This…

Introducing the ManchesterWatchWorks Armada

By Patrick Kansa February 16, 2016

ManchesterWatchWorks is one of those brands that we have gotten to watch grow over the past year or so, and we have sampled quite a few of their watches. We have of course taken a look at both their TatoskoQ and TatoskoK, as well as the more recent Westminster and Vergennes. While the more recent watches were trench watches, for this new release, MWW is getting back to where they started – a dive watch. So, let’s have a look at what the newest ManchesterWatchWorks Armada has on offer.

The Anicorn Series K452 Wants to Orbit Your Wrist

By Patrick Kansa February 15, 2016

Back in 2014, Matt brought you word of the first project from Hong Kong-based Anicorn, and I believe it is safe to say it was successful, as the brand is back with a brand new watch and project. While they are still utilizing a disc-based system, this one is (in my opinion) much more Anicorn Series K452.

Watching the Web for February 13, 2016

By Matt Himmelstein February 13, 2016

Is it half-way through February already (did you do your Valentine’s day Shopping yet?), and time for our Saturday feature, Watching the Web. Here, we look though some of the other watch-centric web sites and highlight a few that we think merit your attention. We also get to show you what was most popular over the last week or so on our own site. From the web at large, I wanted to highlight the Mühle-Glashütte 29er, a round up of watches celebrating the Year of the Monkey, and the Dievas MG-1. From our articles, the Ventus Black Kite, John gift pick of he Seiko Automatic Deep Blue, and the Vortic Boston 48 were the most popular posts.
