    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Tim Vaux didn’t set out to become a watch photographer. When he entered the watch business in 2016, he was working for WatchGecko, the online watch accessories platform, writing product descriptions for straps. From there he moved into its online magazine and watch journalism, before picking up a camera himself. He’d noticed that many of the people whose work he admired could supply both the words and the pictures. Today Vaux is something of a triple threat: watch journalist, photographer, and c

    G-Shock Just Unveiled a £67,000 Blue Sapphire Watch, Its Most Expensive Ever (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    In November 2017, G-Shock creator Kikuo Ibe walked onto a stage at Madison Square Garden in New York and showed the audience what he called his latest dream: a G-Shock made from sapphire crystal. There was just one problem. He hadn't yet worked out how to make it properly. Sapphire and G-Shock make bad bedfellows.

    Orient Star Just Made One of the Best-Looking Affordable Watches of the Year (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Orient Star has been making watches since 1951, but for its 75th anniversary it has done something slightly leftfield: removed one of the features that has defined its watches for three decades. The new Sakigake Three Hand does away with the power-reserve indicator that has appeared on Orient Star dials since 1996. It loses the date, too.
