Owner Review: Bell & Ross BR05 Skeleton

It was during the Melbourne lockdown that I attended WatchFest 2020 online. I think I was already with whisky in hand, but before or after Manu cooked the thickest piece of meat I’ve ever seen. The Melbourne Bell & Ross boutique guys came online and showed us some of their current range. My understanding of…

Owner Review: Benrus Military Field Watch

Beloved for its clean utilitarian aesthetic, the field watch is one of the most iconic styles of watch produced today and it’s available in a dizzying array of variations from many watch brands, large and small. However, whereas the modern-day field watch is worn primarily for fashion, the aesthetic was born out of a need…

Owner Review: Breguet Type XX Transatlantique

The Breguet Type XX Transatlantique manages to be classy, charming, and sporty all at the same time. First and foremost, we’re talking Breguet here! I mean, look at the font on that date wheel. That’s nice! If you want a Breguet in your collection and you’re not ready to go all out dress watch and…

Owner Review: Heuer Autavia 1163 “Siffert”

Owner Review: Casio F91W – Straight out of Stranger Things

When you look at the Casio F91W it looks like something straight out of “Stranger Things” (which it actually featured in). It oozes more 80s vibes than the gang riding their bikes on the way to play Dungeons & Dragons in Mike’s basement. You really don’t even need to know much about watches to formulate…

Owner Review: Panerai Luminor Marina PAM 050

I love this watch for what it means to me. This was a graduation gift from my father. The Panerai Luminor Marina PAM 050 was the new hotness at the time and when he gave me the watch he told me that it is a special watch and I shouldn’t wear it everyday and risk…

Owner Review: S.U.F. Helsinki 180 Kuura – Simply Beautiful

The S.U.F. Helsinki 180 Kuura, must be the simplest watch that Stepan Sarpaneva produces. It is based on the field watches of old yet is a modern take on this very classic in its design. The size is modern but not too large at 38.7mm and a slim 8.9mm thick. Lug width is 20mm, so…

If you’re like me and you spend a lot of time on eBay hunting for sweet vintage watches, you’ll have come across a bunch of these Soviet era pieces from companies like Raketa and Poljot. The main attraction with these watches are that they are cheap and the cases are big. We all know the…
