Our objective is to critique each element fairly, albeit our focus is invariably on watches which appeal to the author. The watch reviews we create explain the nuances of each watch, looking closely at the dial, case and movement. Wherever possible our articles include live, original pictures and we endeavour to avoid using manufacturer supplied images, especially computer generated ‘renders’, whenever possible.
