It’s that time of week, folks – time to survey the contents of pockets from around the world. WWR has been working with Every Day Carry to bring along interesting articles from each site to the notice of our readers; this week, we’re taking a look at what vintage goodies a designer carries along with him.
As of late, TokyoFlash really seems to be into a sort of 70’s SciFi sort of a motif, mixing wood (for the case and bracelet) with angular shapes and vivid LED displays. This latest somehow manages to call to mind the consoles of Star Trek The Next Generation (which of course is a different era of scifi). Not that they had circular displays, but just the use of color and the segments. Perhaps I am getting ahead of myself here a bit, though. Let’s take a look at what the TokyoFlash Kisai Satellite X Wood has on offer.
Origin stories for crowd funded watches are long past redundant at this point, especially if you search out for these projects. What I really care about is how the watch looks, and is it a good enough value to jump in and take a chance. With the Ventus Caspian Watches currently funding through April 25, the watch looks great and the value seems to be there.
AVI-8 was nice enough to offer a AVI-8 Hawker Harrier II watch for a hands on review, and I was expecting to see it with the black dial, but instead I opened the watch and saw the green dial. For me, this is the perfect color for the watch, so it is a happy accident. That is not to say it does not look good in black, but the green suits is very well.
Welcome back to our regular feature, the Watch Video Rewind. In this series, we bring to light videos we feel are interesting and worth sharing out with our readers. This week, we’re all about musical watches.
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 over the last week (or so), as well as taking a second look at what some of our more popular articles this week were.Today, we have a handful of watches from Baselworld, as well as a new Kickstarter watch we saw. After those, we’ll highlight (as usual) some of our more popular posts from the last week. Read on to see what we’ve got in store for you.
The other week, we brought you word about some very racing-inspired chronographs, replete with some rather colorful dials. If your…
British company Time Factors has a variety of interesting watches, many in smaller runs, and certainly with designs that are not found quite anywhere else. While the company has already been stewarding the Sewills name (more on that later), they have decided to introduce a new watch bearing that name. Over the past two years, they have been working to pull everything together to create the Sewills Ferreira.
It’s a brand new month, and that means one thing here at WWR – it is time for a new giveaway! This month, we have teamed up with Torgoen to give away one of their very well-built (and affordable) watches. I rather like GMT complications, so we have na opportunity for you to win a Torgoen T5 GMT.
Watches that allow me to see the time in different places – whether it be via a GMT complication or a true world-time function – have been my fascination of late. I could easily argue that I do not really need any complications after a seconds hand and a date display, but those ancillary time zones appeal to me, even though I do not find myself traveling as much these days as I used to. I have also not made any secret of my thoughts that most of the Breitling collection is simply too busy for a non-pilot for myself. There have been a few models that break that mold, and the new Breitling Galactic Unitime SleekT seems to be in that camp.
