Havaan Tuvali Squadron One | Watch Review
Havaan Tuvali Squadron One I can’t recall how many times I’ve mentioned in the past how much fun it is reviewing watch from brand new watch companies. I truly admire when new companies try to make an impact in a market that quite frankly can be quite ho-hum in terms of uniqueness. I’m always pleased, regardless of the release venue, when a watch company provides a fresh design or...
Melbourne Sorrento | Watch Review
Melbourne Sorrento Watch Review It’s been some time since I’ve had an opportunity to take a look at a watch from the Melbourne Watch Company. Direct from Melbourne Watch Company, their focus is to utilize quality materials such as surgical grade 316L stainless steel, scratch resistant sapphire crystals and high grade mechanical movements. The company strives to offer watches to consume...
Gavox Avidiver | Watch Review
Gavox Avidiver I have had the opportunity to look over watches from Gavox in the past. I have admired each model and thought the company did a pretty good job overall with aviation themed watches. Solid looks and solid components were a given but I was wondering when the company would release an automatic watch and maybe a dive style watch. Well now I have the opportunity to examine just such a wa...
McDowell Time Delray | Watch Review
McDowell Time Delray I admire new watch companies trying to make a footprint in a rather saturated industry. Every time I turn around someone else is trying to release a new watch on Kickstarter or other outlets. The problem regardless of the outlet utilized is incredibly hit or miss as far as making any sort of impact. Tired designs and lack of anything even remotely refreshing many times just le...
Mondaine Stop2Go | Watch Review
Mondaine Stop2Go From time to time it’s fun to discuss something a bit different as far as watches are concerned. Today, so many watches are just a dime a dozen and quite simply look and function like every other watch on the market. Reviewing a watch is even more enjoyable when you get to take a closer look at a watch brand that some may have never heard of or knew very little for the most ...
AVI-8 HAWKER HARRIER II Pegasus Concept | Watch Review
AVI-8 HAWKER HARRIER II Pegasus Concept As many of you know, AVI-8 has been discussed a plethora of times on WatchReport.com by myself and a colleague. I have mentioned many times how much I admire their watch styles even though I am more of a dive watch guy, however, their newest release I tend to like just about as much. AVI-8 is very well known, dare I say cult following, for outstanding budget...
Panzera Aquamarine | Watch Review
Panzera Aquamarine Are you ready for a glimpse of another new micro-brand watch model? I know it seems these days the market is just flat out flooded with tons of different watch brands along with many different styles. However, it is always refreshing when a watch company steps away from their comfort zone like Panzera has done with the Aquamarine 45. All the past watch models from Panzera could ...
AVI-8 Hawker Hurricane Battle of Britain | Watch Review
AVI-8 Hawker Hurricane Battle of Britain AVI-8 has been discussed numerous times on this blog by myself and a colleague. I admire the vast majority of their styles but have to admit I am more of a dive watch guy so admiration is about as far as it goes. All of the watches I have reviewed really fall in the realm of budgetary pilot watches, which is the focus of the company. This model, the AVI-8 H...
TWCO Salvage Diver | Watch Reveiw
TWCO Salvage Diver Every time I turn around there seems to be another micro-brand watch company releasing a new watch of some sort. I am becoming more finicky these days when it comes to dive watches as I find myself more drawn to this style than any other. So, I find it very refreshing when a micro-brand company releases a superbly finished watch at an affordable price packed with quality specifi...
Richardt & Mejer Signature | Watch Review
Richard & Mejer Signature Over the past few months I have had the opportunity to review quite a few minimalist style watches. The one thing that continually shined through were very simple designs and outside of a few gimmicks whether a splash of color or some sort of aesthetic modification to dial print, in the end all have been simple round case watches. Now please don’t get me wrong a...
