My birthday is Friday and my wife gave me this complete surprise of a gift early today!!! I suspected she was up to something when she asked me for a mood board of watches I like but don’t own. She went above and beyond though, considering my current collection and what I like about it, the...

So from my collection these three are my favourite and thats why: Longines hydroconquest 43mm My latest purchase and I know there are way more intresting divers out there but I found it to be unique with its design and it gets a lot of compliments from non watch-enthusiasts also. You really...

Hello all, It's been a while. I recently got a new job and want to buy a nice watch for myself. Although I have many dream watches, I've always been interested in the simple blue dial oyster perpetual and air king. My budget is $6000 usd and under My list is this: Vintage Grand Seiko...

I am looking for a present for my to-be father-in-law. He is pretty traditional, all his watches are roman numeral faces (he prefers thin as well). My budget is around 1k, which is less than what he usually wears (he just bought an IWC Portofino, and frequently wears a two tone Omega De Ville...

Hello all. I would like to send two new/unworn watches to my brother-in-law and his partner. I live in the US and they live in Canada. The watches are gifts. I purchased them from an AD (incl. local taxes) in the US 12 months ago (we were hoping to give the watches to them in person but life...

Hi! I have a nephew on the way. I want to buy him a watch the day he's born, and then give him that watch on his 18th birthday. So basically, I'm looking for a decent watch that I can put in my safe brand new, and in 18 years it will still work as if it were brand new. Any suggestions? I know...

I promised a post (years ago) when I finally finished my degree and picked out a watch. I defended a PhD in biology a month ago in the fisheries science realm. Right after, my dad and I went and had some beers and walked to the local jeweler with full intent of buying an aquaracer. Maybe it...

Hey guys! My younger brother is turning 18 this August, and so will, as is tradition, get a watch. And as the watch-dude of the family, my parents were nice enough to include me in this decision (I'm rather psyched to help in this process, especially as I can sit researching watches I can't...

I've got about two months left until my wedding day and I've settled on getting my groomsmen watches as a gift. The reason it took me so long to decide on getting watches is because none of them are really watch guys. One of them is fairly attached to his Apple smart watch and the other three...

So I was looking at a Citizen's World Timer for my wife, Model FC0000-59D. She really likes the watch, but withher small wrists (around 6 1/4) or so, it seems to be a bit large on her. does anybody have any ideas on a watch in this price range (3-400) that is around 36mm Radio Sync Solar...

Dear everybody, I am looking for the perfect watch to give to my husband to celebrate the birth of our first child. He is a watch-enthousiast but hasn't really started a collection yet. He always mentions the Breitling Navitimer when we discuss watches. I have done some "research" on my own and...

My wife has been wanting a Cartier Large Tank Solo and I thought the basic model (no added bling) would be a nice 50th birthday gift (2/15). I started researching and realized how little I know about watches. I feel like I'm in over my head, can you help with a few basic questions: 1-Can you...

All I know is that it's the Orient Heartbreaker, and I can't find it anywhere! But I would love to get it for my mom as a retirement gift... Agh!

When I purchased my SOH from the Breitling boutique I was give a bag of goodies including baseball hat,wallet , lapel pin and bar of chocolate . From Wempe when I bought my Tudor I was given a 3rd strap. Then this arrived by Fedex today .. It spins rather well on its base , a toy for my desk...

I thought a few of you might appreciate my experiences trying to find a new watch for my girlfriend to surprise her for her birthday. Being a WIS we are often given the task (or volunteer!) to find watches suitable for other people. This all started when my girlfriend decided she wanted...

My father is retiring soon and we need to get him a nice dress watch. He currently "obsesses" over the Baume and Mercier Clifton 10052. I have to admit, this may be my next luxury purchase when I can swing it. This is well above our budget, especially now that I have to replace the engine and...
