The historic German watch brand Tutima is based in the Saxon watchmaking hub of Glashütte. Many people know it as being among the classic producers of military and aviation timepieces. Tutima is one of those celebrated German tool-watch makers that produced a variety of compelling “sports” watches in the 20th century, variations of which it […]

The historic watchmaker Movado is back, folks. While the brand has been producing products for well over 100 years, it has been notably absent from the watch enthusiast sphere. Its return is great news since the current Movado catalog has some truly good-looking mechanical and quartz watches that collectors will probably really enjoy. In 2025, […]

Earlier in 2025, we conducted the ambitious 2025 aBlogtoWatch Watch Enthusiast Community Survey, asking our audience, as well as the general watch enthusiast population online, to help us learn about the current state of the watch enthusiast population. aBlogtoWatch does not conduct annual surveys, but we have conducted similar surveys in the past and can […]

I’ve been wearing the Apple Watch Ultra 3 since it came out in September 2025. Apple upgraded it with some nice new features, including a brighter screen that is slightly larger than before. Whereas the Apple Watch Series 11 has a screen that is up to 2000 nits in brightness, the Apple Watch Ultra 3’s […]

Celebrated Swiss watchmaker David Candaux has come back with a brand-new model for 2025: the DC12 MaveriK. The DC12 represents a new entry-level point for the David Candaux brand, even though the watch is still very much in the high-end segment with a price of over $100,000 USD. I got to see the DC12 MaveriK […]

Aside from a small number of black-colored core collection models, most of what Italian marque UNIMATIC produces are limited-edition timepiece products. Earlier in 2025, the company released a new set of limited-edition models known as the Diving Heritage collection. There are nine models in total, each produced as a limited edition of 300 pieces in […]

Behold, one of the finest stainless steel-cased watches you will ever see. No, I am not talking about some rickety old Rolex watch, but rather the final version of the Swiss Greubel Forsey Balancier Contemporain. The Balancier Contemporain watches featured a smaller case, simpler movement, but all the passionate finishing and detailing people expect from […]

This watch is the first of what I imagine will be many collaborations between IFL Watches (a customizer that specializes in after-market dial paintings) and Venezianico (a growing Italian brand that focuses on style and value). The collaboration begins with Venezianico’s newer integrated bracelet-style watch family known as the Arsenale, then adds a hand-painted rendition […]

If you are reading this, you are likely worried about paying more than you need to for a new wristwatch. Here in the U.S., we are currently experiencing something that is actually rather common in most parts of the world: tariffs on top of the already high cost of luxury timepieces. The names for such […]

Germany’s Glashütte Original has recently announced a new limited-edition version of its longstanding Senator Seventies Chronograph, known as the Seventies ‘X’ Chronograph 1-37-02-18-02-70. 100 pieces of the watch are being produced with the intention that all of them are to be sold in North America, which more or less means that these pieces are available […]
