A Touch of Modern Sale on Egard
We like Techne watches here at WWR, and for good reason – they present some rather lovely style at very affordable prices. Of course, if those prices end up being further discounted, well, then all the better.
Watching the Web for February 28
Welcome to our weekly feature, Watching the Web, where Patrick and I get to point you toward some watch related articles we found across the WWW, as well as highlight some of the more popular articles over the last week or so from our own site. This week, I found a history lesson on railroad watches from Wound for Life, Monochrome highlighted the Arnold & Son Dual Side True Beat watch in stainless steel, and A Blog to Watch covered the Pebble Time. From our write-ups, Patrick’s review of the WT Aurthur 1914 was very popular, as was our link to Every Day Carry and the review of the Ziiiro Eclipse.
Hoptroff Hotblack Watches, Smart Watches with a Single Purpose
Hoptroff is a British Watchmaker who is doing very interesting complications with electronic watches tied to your smart phone. Instead of trying to do everything, and losing the look of a conventional watch in the process, the watches specialize is a specific function, and use the hands and subdials of the watch to convey the information. The Hoptroff Hotblack line of watches is available with options to keep you up to date on football (soccer for those in the US) scores, stock prices, the direction and time of day for Muslim prayers, and important notifications.
Smith & Bradley Want To Make You A Custom Atlantis
We here at WWR are fans of seeing watch startups kicking off here in the ‘States, and I have personally had an enjoyable time getting to know the guys behind Smith & Bradley, as well as the watches they are creating downstate from me. Just a little bit ago, we brought you a breakdown of what was going on with their upgraded Atlantis, which already had quite a few options to choose from. Now, you have the ability to create your own Smith & Bradley custom Atlantis (originally reviewed here).

Watching the Web For October 25
Welcome back to our weekly installment, Watching the Web, where we have a quick look at some interesting watches and articles that have popped up across the World Wide Web over the last week (or so), as well as taking a second look at what some of our more popular articles this week. From the outside world, A Blog To Watch reviewed the first in-house watch out of Porsche Design and Worn & Wound spent some time with the Tempest Commodore Dive watch. Looking inward, this week’s highlights are the a field watch from Triwa and John Bigg’s take on the coming smartwatch paradigm shift.
Tatooine Sand Watch – May the Force Be With You
I don’t think that there is a hard corps Star Wars fan alive who does not know that the Lars homestead on the planet of Tatooine was filmed, not in a Hollywood soundstage or back lot, but in the desert of Tunisia in North Africa. So it is not in a galaxy far, far away, but rather on a continent fairly far, far away from most readers. But some enterprising folks have gone out and collected sand from the area and used it to create the Tatooine Sand Watch, now available on kickstarter.
