There’s no denying the Bulova Lunar Pilot collection is a modern classic. Since its introduction in 2016, the contemporary Lunar Pilot has been a fan favorite in Bulova’s lineup, drawing enduring attention from enthusiasts around the globe. However, these enthusiasts have long requested one simple change to the line: a more compact, vintage-style case diameter.…
Some watches, when I discover them in my inbox, feel like they always should have existed. Even against all odds. Strangely, the Bulgari Octo Finissimo Dual Time x Vianney Halter felt just like such a watch to me, even though there is no rhyme or reason how these two worlds can, could, or should come…
For a watchmaker whose identity revolves around astronomy, star-shaped hour markers feel like a natural fit. Yet the Ace Jewelers x Christiaan van der Klaauw stAriadne marks the Dutch manufacturer’s first use of them. Created with Amsterdam-based Ace Jewelers, this limited edition of 50 pieces gives the Ariadne a distinctive combination of celestial details and…
One of my favorite watch brands to cover is Louis Vuitton, because of how unpredictable their new release or next brand direction will be. The Paris-based luxury firm clearly makes a lot more than just watches, but even within its watch catalog, it benefits from a level of diversity that few high-end firms enjoy. Different…
The relationship between elite athletics and mechanical watchmaking has long centered on precision, performance, and the pursuit of excellence. For marathon legend Eliud Kipchoge, however, a watch can also serve as a deeply personal expression of the experiences and values that have shaped his career. Swiss independent watch customization workshop Artisans de Genève has unveiled…
By and large, we tend to think of the ocean as being blue. It’s a simple, straightforward way of portraying water, but in reality, this view misses a world of nuance. Not only are there nigh-on infinite shades of blue, from pale tropical shallows to near-black abyssal depths, some of the ocean’s most fertile, vibrant…
In my experience, the problem with collecting watches for fun and profit is that collecting for profit tends to strip away the fun, and collecting for fun virtually guarantees no profit. As such, I’ve never really gravitated towards hype pieces in my own collection, and buying and selling the watches I genuinely enjoy has made…
More than a century ago, Hamilton introduced its first cushion-shaped watches, and this defining case profile would serve as the foundation for some of the brand’s most memorable designs from the Art Deco period of the 1920s and 1930s. During this era, wristwatches were beginning to emerge as both practical tools and expressions of personal…
November 2026 has come at last, and as the end of the year begins its approach, our minds begin to turn to thoughts of holiday travel. Of course, there’s no better companion for a long trip over the holidays than a timelessly stylish GMT watch, and we’ve partnered with Marvin to deliver one lucky winner a classic…
Given that I am the sort of person who jumps up from the sofa not only during sketchy overtake manoeuvres but also when watches I care about are shown casually worn in the paddock or the cockpit, I do enjoy proper motorsport-derived watch releases. As a brand founded and run by a petrolhead, Lorige is…
Rarely do I get to say that Casio has meaningfully upgraded its entry-level G-Shock wristwatch models. That’s because the important Japanese watchmaker has a tendency to innovate and evolve its mid- to high-end timepieces, while reserving its lower price points for legacy models and collections that often have been engineered and developed in the past.…
In the handful of years since Tissot launched the modern PRX, the integrated sports watch series has become a de facto default choice for enthusiasts around the world. Countless advice pieces have been written by professionals and amateurs alike in those years, urging the PRX as an affordable staple of any new collector’s repertoire. To…
The Hautlence Kubera is a lovely watch that was marred by poor product release timing. The cubist expression of modern horological design cannot be appreciated on its own, but it must be evaluated in the context of the infamous Patek Philippe Cubitus (like other square or rectangular watches released recently). The cloud of Patek Philippe’s…
For a watch defined by its unapologetically substantial presence, finding the right proportions is important. Panerai has long offered its Submersible dive watch in both imposing 47mm and more compact 42mm formats. With the Panerai Submersible, the brand splits the difference: a 44mm case size designed to preserve the collection’s unmistakable character The 44mm format…
A few years ago, I was getting lunch with Akbar Sattar, founder of Lesablier, in Arlington, Virginia. He pulled his phone out and showed me a tidy render of a tonneau case watch with a malachite dial and told me it was years in the making. Sattar had been thinking about this watch since he…

Jason shares his journey from growing up in a family of goldsmiths in London to training as a watchmaker, working with Rolex, and eventually building a business…
The aBlogtoWatch team would like to announce Kris C. of Ancaster, Canada as the winner of our Praesidus A-11 Utah Beach – Surf Blue watch giveaway. Filled with authentic sand from the Utah Beach landing zone and designed to mimic the coastline of the D-Day invasions, this is a striking, unique tribute to military history that’s sure…
There is something to be said for a yearly ritual – think spring cleaning, or back-to-school shopping. Every August, I buy a new pair of running shoes. The previous year’s are worn thin, and fresh support is needed for the biggest physical challenge of the year: Mission Miles. This marks my third year participating in…
I’ve been reviewing watches for eight years now, including the last four at aBlogtoWatch. While I’ve handled my fair share of Doxa watches at events and meetups, and I’ve long had my eye on the Doxa Army, I’ve never spent more than a few minutes with one until now. While the new Doxa Sub 300…
Parallax is the perceived shift in an object’s position when it is viewed from different angles, and Tsar Bomba has embraced this concept to inform the design of its latest horological creation. Inspired by high-performance engineering and showcasing advanced materials like ceramic and carbon fiber, the Tsar Bomba Parallax is a distinctly modern triple calendar…
