G. Gerlach Otago
A few months ago, I was very excited to introduce you to G. Gerlach, one of very few Polish made watch brands (yes, there are more than one). I'll defer to that article for details, but to summarize, Gerlach is setting out to revitalize manufacturing in Poland as well as pay tribute to Polish history via watches. The owners are a bunch of collectors with eclectic tastes who set out to make watches they want to wear as much as their customers would. As such, the watches range wildly from pilots, to marine chronometers to divers of various types. While that might seem like an odd strategy, they are doing a lot of things no one else is, and there is something in their line for everyone. And��they are doing it all with very affordable prices.Following up their first set of the watches, which were altogether unique, Gerlach released the Otago, which we have the pleasure of reviewing today. This chunky orange-dialed diver clearly draws inspiration from classic 70's divers, namely those of Dox

Interview: Aldo Magada Reveals Zenith's New Number One Market, And Explains The El Primero's
Aldo Magada, CEO of Zenith, was at the Royal Automobile Club in London to present the El Primero Chronomaster 1969 Hero Cup on Monday morning. A limited edition of 100 pieces, two of which will be gifted to competitors of the classic rallying competition, it cements the brand’s position in the world of vintage automobiles. We sat down with Mr. Magada to find out just how much the brand is driven by its icon. Arthur Touchot:Let’s start by looking back at 2015. Were you satisfied with the end-of-year results? Aldo Magada: Our numbers [this year] were actually in single-digit decline, mainly because of Hong Kong. As a place, it’s always been challenging for brands. It used to be our biggest market, but today Japan has overtaken it. Almost 75% of that market [Japan] is local, increasing steadily over the years, and is mainly buying El Primero watches. 1 OF 5 AT:For the second time in 12 months (after the Tour Auto Edition), Zenith is

Incoming: BLNR close up
So some of you might read my thread on letting go my DJII. I did and found a good grey dealer in the city and they have 3 BLNRs all with good price. Never thought that I will picked this one up, because when BLNR was announced I always thought the blue seems like out of place. But now, I can agree that I think this is the best modern GMT out there. Anyone thinking to grab this, I can ensure you to grab this as soon as possible and don't look back. Even if you need to pay a little bit of the premium. Another thing that I need to highlight is the grey dealer who I've dealt with. Really superb superb service from the staff and the boss lady who was there when I picked up the watch the following day. Anyone wondering the spot just PM me :)

Datejust Dial Color
Hi - I'm considering purchasing a 36mm Datejust. I'm leaning towards a black dial but was curious about everyone's opinions about the versatility of the various dial colors.
