A Tokyo Flash for the Environmentally Conscious Data Smuggler

Matt Himmelstein By Matt Himmelstein

TokyoFlash has been creating unusual digital watches for a while. They have a variety of different ways to represent time on the watch, some straight forward and inventive, some a little tougher to read. The Kisai Upload walks between the line between the two, using the same type of system utilized for road markings to represent the time on the watch.

Marvin Origin M125 Watch Review

Patrick Kansa By Patrick Kansa

We’ve reviewed quite a few different models from Marvin over the past few years, and we’ve liked the brand for the combination of style, fit-and-finish, and affordability that their lineup offers. Like the styling of a particular watch, but the mechanical movement is a little out of your price range? Well then, they very likely have a quartz variant, saving you a few bucks. In what we’ve looked at previously, if they haven’t been “true” sport watches, they’ve definitely skewed less formal. Today’s watch, the M125.53.51.74 definitely takes us away from that, and is very much a dressier piece.

Devon Goes for the Gold

Matt Himmelstein By Matt Himmelstein

The Devon Tread watch was one of the first of the way out there modern watches that I found absolutely fascinating and drool worthy. The First Tread was a modern engineering marvel, ready to be worn by captains of industry and political movers and shakers, but it also had an ascetic that would feel at home on the wrist of a steam-punk enthusiast.
