From Panerai to Hublot, our Editor at Large completes his tour through some greatest hits from a watch world that loves a bit of Ferrari.

The year was 1985, and there was something in the air that everyone seemed to be tapping into. It was a time of flying DeLoreans and Breakfast Clubs, of Simple Minds and Talking Heads. It was the era of Knight Riders and Airwolves, where P.I.s and vice cops drove Ferraris. Everyone seemed to be chasing the same thing-a quest for cool. And amid all of that, Citizen created a sledgehammer of a dive watch, in ana-digi form and with the world’s first electronic depth sensor. It was the age of Aqualand. With the first wave of dive computers on the horizon, Citizen asked a bold question: how do you create the most sophisticated and useful dive watch in the world, one that still wears like a daily, walk-of-life analog timepiece? The answer was the original Aqualand. Its unmistakable silhouette, anchored by an asymmetrical case and a protruding depth sensor, may as well have come straight out of an ’80s prop master’s imagination-an electrified vision of futurism and function.

Considered one of the most solid, well-built and finished dive watches for under EUR 2,000, Titoni’s Seascoper 300, the smaller brother of the Seascoper 600, was recently put to a high-altitude test on Swiss speed climber Nicolas Hojac’s wrist. Instead of braving underwater depths, the Seascoper accompanied Hojac as he climbed all three north faces […]

No pre-owned shortcuts, just brand-new watches; that was my mantra when putting together my edition of The Best Watches Under €5,000.

I’m glad to realize that choosing these three watches was difficult for me. For less than €1,000, there’s a boatload of options.

Dive watches remain the most democratic category in watchmaking. While certain icons now cost several thousand euros, the truth is that the core DNA of the dive watch, robustness, legibility, and reliability, is still alive and well in far more accessible territory. In fact, €1,000 might just be the sweet spot. At this level, you’ll […] Visit What Are 10 Of The Best Dive Watches Under €1,000? - Featuring Citizen, Seiko, Baltic, Doxa, Certina, And More to read the full article.

Our visit earlier this year to India’s prime watchmaking company, Titan, was a genuine eye-opening experience.

For this review, I had a chance to try out something new within the Seascoper collection. […] Visit Hands-On With The Impressive Titoni Seascoper 300 Chronograph to read the full article.
