Treat Yourself - Tissot PRX Powermatic 80 40MM Carbon
Forged carbon is the latest buzz material, but it has been cost-prohibitive as many brands charge a substantial premium for its use. Tissot is not like other brands. They recently introduced a new forged carbon PRX model with the impressive Powermatic 80 movement, offering an industry-leading 80 hours of power reserve. Forged carbon is well-known for its lightweight properties; this watch weighs only 91 grams on its rubber strap. It is also highly durable and robust and looks super cool. Tissot PRX + Forged Carbon must have it!
SHOP HEREValue packed pick - Citizen Promaster Land
Citizens, leaders in the analog-digital timepiece space, have been producing various multi-function tool watches for 35 years. They’ve introduced a new Promaster Land with a brand new Eco-Drive U822 movement to celebrate this milestone. It features a Memory-in-Pixel (MIP) display, which offers improved high-resolution clarity, and a convenient inner compass bezel operated by the second crown at 7 o’clock. It is available in multiple finishes and dial colors; there is even a camouflage dial and bezel option. Just when you thought they couldn't make them any better, they did.
SHOP HEREWhen you have too many watches - Mainspring Guardian Dual Slot Watch Winder
If you’re reading this, there's a good chance you have multiple wristwatches, possibly some with automatic winding. If you own multiple automatic watches, you should consider a watch winder. A winder will keep them wound and will keep the lubricants moving. Just like a car, idle watches can cause lubricants to pool, leading to metal-on-metal friction when started up again. The Mainspring dual-slot watch winder is exactly what the watchmaker ordered. Its dual independent bi-directional motors and elegant wooden construction make it as functional as it is attractive.
SHOP HEREUpgrade your kit - The James Brand The Palmer Clear
You've probably used a box cutter at some point in your life. Last year, The James Brand introduced a box cutter, the Palmer, designed to protect fingers. For 2024, The James Brand has released a new version of the Palmer, now available with a recycled translucent polycarbonate case. This new design lets you see the patent-pending smooth action mechanism inside, enabling tool-free blade changes. Despite these alterations, the new Palmer Clear retains all the functionality of the classic utility knife/box cutter. Everyone needs one of these.
SHOP HEREDeal of the Week - Seiko Clocks 12" Watch Dial Wall Clock
Legibility is essential, above or below the ocean's surface. Wall clocks, like dive watches, benefit from high-visibility displays. Seiko’s Watch Dial Wall Clock brings the design of professional dive watches to an everyday clock for your wall. They draw inspiration from Seiko’s dive watches, powered by quartz movements using a single AA battery. They also have a sweep-second hand that offers a smooth, continuous movement resembling that of a mechanical watch. As a thank you for reading this far, we’re offering a discount on these cool clocks.
