Watching the Web for February 7, 2015

Patrick Kansa By Patrick Kansa

Welcome back to our Saturday feature, Watching the Web. This is where we take the opportunity to highlight watch related articles on other sites that we find interesting, as well as point you back to some of our more popular posts from the last week or so. Starting with the other sites, we have an op-ed on why watches are still needed, a look at one of the first atomic watches to hit the market, and a rap video inspired by an social media account. After those, of course, we have our own top contenders of the week.

Touch of Modern (join here is you are not already a member), is a limited time, members only sales site that features lots of guy-centric goods. For our audience, it is the watches that really matter, and the site does feature a lot of watch sales. Right now, Davosa Swiss Automatics are on sale at Touch of Modern, plus one quartz chrono for the budget minded.

Bulova Goes For The Gold with the Joseph Bulova Collection First Edition

Patrick Kansa By Patrick Kansa

When it comes to watches from Bulova, we tend to see them as being nicely designed pieces, mostly quartz driven and affordable. In other words, a good watch, but not necessarily something that you take notice of. Of course, if that’s the thinking, then you are ignoring things like their crazy-accurate chonograph (ABTW LINK). These days, you would also be ignoring the new direction they attempting to take things in, which is underscored by the Joseph Bulova Collection First Edition 24-Karat Gold watch.

Matt Himmelstein By Matt Himmelstein

Christopher Ward gets a fair bit of love here at WWR, mainly because they produce high quality, attractive watches at affordable price points. Now in their 10th year, the company is updating their line of dive watches, the Christopher Ward Trident Collection. The new collection offers four choices of movements, along with a number of other improvements and two case sizes.

Watching the Web For January 3, 2015

Matt Himmelstein By Matt Himmelstein

Happy New Year everyone. I hope we all survived the holidays healthy, happy, and financially intact. This is the first Watching the Web post of 2015, where we here at WWR point you to interesting watch related articles at other sites, as well as highlight our more popular posts over the last week. Looking around the web, I liked the Worn&Wound review of a watch for the vision impaired, and am fascinated by the complication in the Quill&Pad write up of the Maurice Lacroix Square Wheel Cube. Looking back at our own pages, we have the Tissot T-Touch Expert Solar and the Butler Professional Series GMT, as well as a list of the 5 most popular articles we posted in 2014 .

Rossling & Co. Quartz Watch, Thin Is Back In

Matt Himmelstein By Matt Himmelstein

OK, Rossling & Co. never thought that thin was out, they were just out of stock of their quartz watches. The company was nice enough to send me a pair of the watches a while back, and now that you can actually purchase them again, I thought I would give you my impressions. *Spoiler Alert* – The Rossling & Co. Quartz watch is an attractive minimalist dress option.
