Individual Design Ka La Watch Review
It doesn't take a lot for a guy to go out and buy a watch from one of the major timepiece producers. Sure you need the actual cash, but purchasing a Rolex, Omega, Tag Heuer, or any of the other name brands is often a mental no-brainer. That's because those brands have created a blanket of trust and sophistication behind their name. Buying one of those watches is like entrance into a club of like-minded people who share your passion and taste. So what does it take to pick up a timepiece from a little guy? An independent brand? A start-up brand? These companies have zero awareness, littl
Tissot Sculpture Line Moonphase Baby Breguet Watch
Likely no coincidence that Tissot created a timepiece like this and both Tissot and Breguet are under the same umbrella company - the Swatch Group. While Tissot is best known in the US for their awesome T-Touch timepieces, and other sport watches, they do actually offer some nice classy pieces as well (though a good deal of those are harder to find in the US).

They are actually in sort of the same boat with Certina watches (also Swatch Group, but those are very hard to find in the US).So new from
URWERK Black Cobra Watch: Can Comics Sell Luxury Watches?
While it is hard to give proper credit, Linde Werdelin is the first luxury watch brand that I know of that employed the use of comics (ahem, graphic novels) to sell high-end timepieces. They still do that, and certainly are going to carry that idea into the future. UPDATE: I just learned that I had it wrong. Linde Werdelin might have been the first to disseminate marketing comic imagery online (that I know of), but Urwerk had published comic content as far back as 2008 (republished here - thanks Ian).Now luxury brand Urwerk offers a new comic strip (see below to check it out). I think
Hands-On With The Perrelet Turbine Double Rotor Watch Collection
The Perrelet Turbine watch caused a lot of stir when the images of the watch that will be released in October 2009 were displayed here on first. Then the Turbine Collection video was leaked was really hit home exactly what the Turbine Double Rotor watch was going to look like in action. I think it is clear that this special timepiece collection is going to be a big hit for Perrelet. A few days ago I got to experience pre-production models of the watch myself - and they are sweet!There will initially be three models of the watch. Two in DLC coated titanium with b
