For only $20 more, Timex will now sell you a Q chronograph that tracks additional time zones. The Three Time Zone Chronograph might seem like a no-brainer. The two watches, however, have quite different characters and might appeal to different types of collectors. Read this re...
I liked my Casio "Royale" AE1200WH Worldtimer so much that I decided to modify it. I installed an SKXMod matte black steel case with gold buttons and lettering, and a sapphire crystal plus a matte black sterile faceplate. A TQ18 strap with gold hardware finished it off. Click ...

Why is it that I found myself searching for a watch with the name of a car brand on the dial? It's not just because I have always loved Porsche cars. The Porsche Design Chronograph 01 is an icon. Read about the experience of buying one, attempting to track down its production ...
It wasn't until I started learning more about the Timex catalog that I realized that there is an automatic version of the Q. The M79 is about $110 more than its Quartz sibling. Is it worth paying for the upgrade?
