Six Boutique Dive Watches: The Very Best
Right now, we're in a golden age for dive watches. Companies such as Giovino, Palladium and others have made it possible to start your own company with as few as 400 watches, and the Internet has enabled the global reach that lets a niche company flourish.

GRAIL or FAIL?
I was thinking about the first Rolex I ever owned (DJ 16220) and that it wasn't what I expected after yearning so many years. The sports models scratched that itch eventually but I was wondering how many others out there got that grail piece then realized it was more of a fail ?Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
