Introducing the TWCO Sea Rescue Diver Tactical

By Patrick Kansa February 26, 2016

Who likes dive watches? You like dive watches. I like dive watches. Frankly, it seems, just about everyone likes dive watches. When they come from an popular indie brand with a combination of good looks and functionality? Well, that just about seems like a slam dunk. While the TWCO Sea Rescue Diver was first introduced in 2012, it focused on a higher-visibility color (in that case, yellow). Orange was the next logical step after that, and now its time for another refresh. This time around, the TWCO Sea Rescue Diver Tactical is going stealthy.

Everyday Carry Has Some Storage Ideas For You

By Patrick Kansa February 24, 2016

As you know, we are fans of the type of gear that our pals over at Everyday Carry cover. While the EDC community may tend to focus on pocket (or bag) dumps, there is a simple truth – once you empty out those pockets, you need a place to put all that stuff

The Marloe Cherwell – A Personal Relationship

By Matt Himmelstein February 23, 2016

OK, you only have a few dozen hours to get behind the crowd-funded kick off of the Marloe Cherwell, but better late than never, am I right? The brand was nice enough to loan me black and white dial versions, and I really liked them. OK, I was probably predisposed, since the watches are hand wound minimalist watches without a date window, but just because a watch was built practically with me in mind, that does not mean I would love it, or does it?

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.

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.
