Worn & Wound decided to round up their year by highlighting their favorite article of each month for 2015. The list starts out with January’s review of the Junghans Max Bill Anthracite . The list is not simply a collection of high end watch reviews, and it ends up being a nice peek into what the watch site finds interesting in the world of horography.
Over at Hodenkee, there are a couple of year end wrap up post, but the one I though was most interesting was the one that highlighted each of the contributors most worn watch of 2015. I started to track my watch wearing habits (until my phone with all the data on it died), so peering into the habits of other folks with lots of options for their wrists is an interesting exercise.
Finally, if you want to check out a parade of 2015’s high end watches, Total Watch has a two part recap of their reviews for the year. The highlights for me are watches from HYT, MB&F, and 4N.
Moving on to the articles from our site, Patrick’s picks for the top 5 watches of 2015 keep the retrospective theme going. He included all the watches he reviewed, including those for A Blog to Watch, which let him cast his net a bit wider than I could with my top picks.
Also popular was Patrick’s review of the Laco Spirit of St. Louis. If this had been published earlier in the month, it could have easily made my list of the top 5 watches for 2015. Patrick really liked the handset, and I am very intrigued by the case, as well as into the overall design on the watch. Don’t be shocked if this one makes it into the 2016 Father’s Day gift guide.
With that, I will wrap up this edition of Watching the Web. As always, if there’s something you think we should be covering, feel free to drop us a line. If you bring something up that we end up writing about, we’ll be sure to tip our hats (electronically, if not literally) in your general direction.
