Two Broke Watch Snobs
Kaz and Mike take time out of their weekend to talk watches, share their frustrations, and kick back after a difficult week. How far can Mike take his #BaselBeard and is it really recycling if you chug water out of a used soda can? The Snobs are eco-conscious dudes after all... maybe.

It gets boring waiting in lines, especially when you’re hungry. So if by chance this finds you outside Chin Chin (Australia’s top-ranked restaurant, located in Flinders Lane, Melbourne which has a wait-time of around the average romantic comedy in length), you’re in luck, because we’re going to help you kill at least two minutes.

Alain de Cadenet is not a man who supports the idea of change for the sake of it. In fact, his philosophy for life is that if you find something good – really, really good – you should stick with it.

Carole Forestie’s orbital language was translated into the first working commercial wristwatch by the tenacity of the Rolf W. Schnyder of Ulysse Nardin and the contributions of a handful of key individuals. This is the story of The Freak, told by those very same people like it’s never been told before. Starting with the legendary horologist, Ludwig Oechslin.

Tudor was founded by none other than the founder of Rolex, Hans Wilsdorf, in 1946 to be an affordable alternative to Rolex, using the parent company’s cases but fitting them with third-party movements to keep prices lower. With a few exceptions, the early Tudor watches largely mimicked Rolex models, and even sometimes bore the Rolex […]

I like yellow gold. I know this is not a popular choice by any means, but I’m not going to apologise for it or anything. There is something about the unabashed richness of the hue in question that I find impossible to ignore. Rose gold, when used sparingly, can impart incredible warmth to a timepiece. […]

Watches that commemorate anniversaries are often amongst the most desirable. Collectors still hunt for pieces of Cartier’s 150th and Patek Philippe’s 175th Anniversary collection, and probably will do the same in the near future for REVOLUTION’s own anniversary Panerai and IWC. That such celebrations often result in the creation of truly unique watches is once […]

Limited Editions have always been one of the nice things about buying watches, and even better when they commemorate a special event. This Ball Fireman Night Train SG50 is certainly a dazzling limited edition to buy, especially if you hail from Singapore. With 2015 marking Singapore’s 50th year of Independence, Ball has decided to release a […]

The story of the Fifty Fathoms and Blancpain’s love affair with the oceans begins in 1953. Unlike a great number of contemporary dive watches, which are sea-worthy only in name, the Fifty Fathoms was forged in the crucible of actual dive experience. In 1952, war hero Capt. Robert “Bob” Maloubier was in the process of […]

The narrater of this 45 minute long advertisement for the new mirror-less camera called the Leica T System begins by asking the following:” Is this the most boring film ever made?”. As a marketing move, it is certainly brilliant, showing off every single second of the 45 minute process that it takes for the aluminium […]

Purists will immediately, and rightfully, note that Black Tie as a dress code does not allow for the men to wear wristwatches. Yet those regulations come from an era in which Great Britain still had a King and every airplane a propeller. Times have changed, and so have watches. In 2011 Piaget surprised everybody by […]

Collecting watches is one thing, but storing them safely is something else. It actually does’nt matter if it’s a collection of three four watches or a dozen, we’re taking about, there comes a moment that they need a better place than the drawer of a nightstand, or in a cardboard box when travelling. Nowadays there […]

Junghans is a brand that most people know from their clocks and radio-controlled watches. In both categories the brand has made quite a name for itself, often combining innovative design with the latest technical developments. But what Junghans decisively gave a place in watchmaking history is its collaboration with architect/designer Max Bill. As an apprentice […]

Finding the perfect gift for a tennis enthusiast can be tricky. Do you buy more balls? A new grip? While those are practical, they don’t quite capture the love of the sport. If you’re looking for something that combines sentimental charm, horological history, and a touch of playful elegance, look no further than the Peanuts x Timex Marlin Hand-Wound Snoopy Tennis watch. Vintage Country Club Aesthetics Timex nailed the retro styling with the cool Snoopy watch. The rich, grass-green dial paired with a gold-tone stainless steel case instantly evokes the classic color palettes of Wimbledon or a heritage country club. It comes on a supple brown natural leather strap with contrast stitching, making it versatile enough to wear with a suit or a casual polo after a Saturday morning match. Timex creatively integrated Snoopy into the time-telling mechanics: The Hands Snoopy’s arms act as the watch’s hands, with his racket arm pointing to the minutes and his empty hand tracking the hours. The Sweep-Second Instead of a traditional seconds hand, a tiny, rotating tennis ball endlessly floats around the outer edge of the dial, keeping the match going all day long. It’s an incredibly charming animation that adds a playful splash of personality to the wrist, guaranteed to make them smile every time they check the time. Vintage Sizing for Modern Wrists At 34mm, this watch stays true to classic vintage proportions. While many modern men’s watches push 40mm and beyond, a...
