Q Timex Three Time Zone Chronograph Watch Review - White and Black - TW2V70100VQ and TW2V69800VQ

Q Timex Three Time Zone Chronograph Watch Review - White and Black - TW2V70100VQ and TW2V69800VQ

Nick Lehner

The Three Time Zone Chronograph has a more modern look than other Q Timex models. The dial looks modern, with round, raised indices with large lume plots. It loses some of the charm, but adds a GMT function that is a bit quirky. Does it belong in the Q Timex line?

Batman Battle: Rolex GMT Master II vs. Seiko Prospex LX Watch Review (116710BLNR vs. SNR041J1)

Nick Lehner

As demand for Rolex sports watches increases, many are left disappointed. A Rolex was once something to be purchased upon reaching a milestone. Now, buyers are met with a long waiting list. This has lead many people to explore other brands like Grand Seiko. If you’re specifically looking for a Rolex GMT Master II BLNR (a.k.a the “Batman”), Grand Seiko doesn’t really have anything. Luckily, Seiko’s Proxpex LX line is...

On paper, the Oris Big Crown Propilot Worldtimer checked all of my boxes. Read the review to find out if it did in the metal!

Perrelet Seacraft GMT (A1055) Watch Review – The Best Travel Watch You’ve Never Heard Of

Nick Lehner

If you’ve been a watch nerd for long enough, you’re probably familiar with the phrase “true GMT.”  After an Omega GMT purchase fell through, a Perrelet Seacraft with a black dial popped up. I had never seen one for sale used before, and this one was at quite a good price. Click to find out how it was.
