Seiko 5 Sample
Taking the Plunge (and hike) with Old and New I was writing more than one post at a time. Sometimes I start a post topic and get side tracked. Or research for one delays things, so I start another. I started reading about the Seiko 5 lines, both old and new, recently. As I read…

Timex xBespoke Post Viscount
Retro Reinterpretation Fun I have so many things to write about but have been doing everything but! So, I’m just going to start typing. This post is about another watch I never expected to see. A reinterpretation of the late ’70s to early 80’s Viscount. It has been a favorite of mine with its military-style…

30 Years of Eddie Bauer Watches Part 4
More Interesting Finds from the Outdoor Retailer Time for some more EB. I have been holding off with some of my later Eddie Bauer finds. Its been a while since I have acquired any, but I still have some catching up to do. I’ve wanted to discuss some more of the Eddie Bauer label watches…

Timex Mk1 40mm Auto
The Mk1s are back after five years When I saw the email from Timex about the release of some new Mk1s, I was on it. You see, I have a soft spot for all things Mk1. The Mk1 line was a lot of things; a military watch, a fashion watch, a people’s watch. It sort…

Vaer D5 and D4
Devolution of the Vaer Diver Family I wasn’t planning on writing about Vaer watches, really. I had other things on my mind, but I just stumbled into a Vaer rabbit hole recently. I have been watching Vaer’s development on the back burner for several years but never took the plunge to learn more. What I…

MVMT X Nigel Cabourn Diver LE

Timex Allied Coastline
A Crossover in the Archive Era It took a while for the Allied Coastline (AC) to grow on me. At first contact is seemed strange. I was mostly interested in 38mm and 40mm Timex lines and the Coastline was 43mm and I was having trouble seeing where it fit in with the Mk1s, Allieds and…

Timex Deepwater Reef 200 Hands On
That didn’t take long No sooner had I finished my first draft post on the Reef 41mm diver, when I went and ordered two. I suppose that was a good idea since Timex was out of stock in less than a week on all styles. It was a bit compulsive for me, but I really…

Timex Deepwater Reef 200
Timex enters the Diver fray, as only Timex can I’m jumping right on this. Normally I write about watches I have discovered years after they were released. For this new Timex release I just stumbled onto this morning, I had to get out a lot of built-up contemplation. I never really wanted to write watch…

Timex Archive Acadia
The Plastic Case Alternative Time to get writing again as well as back on the topic of Timex. Its been a busy summer, particularly August, so I have not been starting enough new posts! I have been thinking a lot about Timex watches recently as you might have noticed in my last post, but also…
