Ikepod Returns

Ikepod is re-entering the market after financial troubles. Designed by Marc Newson, these watches were famous for their odd styling and retro-cool looks. Most of them cost about $2500 now but there no pricing on the new line.

I don’t even know what to think about this 1000M diving monster. As far as I can tell, this is the guy’s page. He seems to make straps and now these watches. Innaresting.

This is a Citizen?

571073_l03.jpgI’m still trying to figure out what this thing does or what it’s called. I’ll get back to you in a minute.

Here’s Professional Watches take on this.

I really really like Citizen watches because they are such a good value. Especially the ECO-Drive titanium wristwatches. They are accurate, never need a battery, they are very hard to scratch and they look pretty nice. Well this practical watch company has finally come out with what appears to be a mid to high end wristwatch called the Citizen Capanolas and I want one now. Considering they are the largest watchmaker in the world I would think they could sell these at a reasonable price, although I am guessing they will be between $700-$1000. If they look as good in person as they do in these high res images I would pay that amount.

Hublot Big Bang: Played Out?

November 1st, 2006 20 comments

hublotsml.jpgLooks like Hublot has finally jumped the shark with the Big Bang. They’ve driven it so deeply into the ground that even guys like Chad, who SELLS watches for a living, is sick of it. I liked it at first – it has a nice style, a nice heritage, and a nice story. However, now that they’ve covered it over with rose gold, diamonds, and elf sprinkles, I’m getting kind of tired of it.

Cuervo y Sobrinos Up Close

A nice little tour of a few Cuervo y Sobrinos watches. C y S is a “Cuban” brand with a decidedly island flavor that goes great with a nice cigar and a mojito. I don’t mind the style, but it’s got a bit of charm so I’ll forgive it its indiscretions.
