Thoughts on Urban Jurgensen ONE GMT?

Thoughts on Laine Gelidus 3

I really don’t need another watch, BUT I love everything about this watch and the company. The highly upgraded base movement (Unitas) is one of my all time favorites, and his dials look amazing (G’ed not Stamped). I would choose the frosted movement …

Thinking way ahead

Advice needed: I just turned 45 years old. I have owned just about every brand of watch except the holy trinity or ALS. Including, GO, Zenith, Blancpain, GP, and all the forum faves (Rolex, Omega, GS, etc.) I would love to get a really nice, high horol…

Not trying to set something up as click-bait, just curious about other opinions. They have a history of copying and then out-marketing their competition (sound like anyone else?). Two examples come to mind.

1. VC adopted the Maltese Cross as a logo in…

IWC Yacht Club

There's a certain irony, given the name of the watch, that it took nearly two months to arrive from Germany. Ultimately, it was worth the wait. It needs a resurfacing on the lugs and the engraving on the back removed but, for the price, it'…
