Magrette MPP Diver Steel | Watch Review
Magrette MPP Diver Steel Magrette has released their updated version of the MPP Diver, (Moana Pacific Pro), which has a slightly new look and an upgraded Swiss movement. A few years back I reviewed the first version and overall I was quite satisfied with it. I think I can say the same for this new version, though I think the makeover could have been a little more extreme. The Magrette MPP Diver Steel is the version being reviewed here today, another version with a black bezel insert and a bru..

Magrette Regattare 11 With similar specifications to the Waterman, the Magrette Regattare 11 is not a huge change for the lineup of the New Zealand brand, though it does have a different look, and a different appeal.

I am a big fan of Magrette Watches, and I have been for a long time. I have followed the brand, owned and reviewed many of their watches since their inception, and they always seem to deliver a great watch for a not so large price point. (Magrette does make many limited edition watches, such as hand engraved models and others, that do have a higher price tag) One of their newest offerings is the Magrette Dual Time, a 42mm steel case with a combo of brushed and steel finishes, or all black pvd..
