Hi WUS!
Continue readingToday I’ll share some impressions on the Watchdives WD005 “Ice Crack”, a newly released NH35-powered diver.

Curiously only the blue arrived on November 20th so far (7 days after order).
The watch is delivered in a Watchdives…

Continue readingI find a black dial/white indices with a dash of color for the seconds hand to be the perfect compromise between legibility and measured fun.
The best example to date which made me forget all my other watches:

Quick review of the Hruodland F025 (Seamaster 300 clone)

Finally, an homage other than a Sub or an SKX007!
Important: this one is a copy of Sinn’ bigger model U1, not the medium sized one U50.
And if you thought that the Sinn U1 was big: 44mm wide, 50.5mm lug-to-lug, 14.7mm thick, this Steelflier is even bigger! 45mm wide, 52.5mm lug-to-lug and 15.0mm thick!
