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. […]

One wonders how it is possible for watch companies to constantly pump out new products for eager watch lovers every year. The pace of innovation is necessarily fast, with competition abounding from every quarter, and the fickle crowd waiting to abandon yesterday’s darling for today’s star.

Despite a relatively conservative face, the Zweigesicht is quirky and original from a technical perspective. Zwei gesicht translates as “double faced”, which describes the watch literally.
