    Monochrome Watch Review: Armin Strom Racing Gravity

    Identity is a brand’s main objective. Look at a Rolex and you’ll recognize it at first glance. Same goes for a Ferrari or a Louis Vuitton bag.

    Monochrome Watch Review: The Girard-Perregaux 1966 Dual Time

    The 1966 Collection by Girard-Perregaux is defined by its clean, pure and refined design. We at Monochrome Watches have hailed its styling before, when we reviewed the 1966 Blue Dial and the more recent 41-mm edition. This collection also includes numerous complications, such as an Equation of Time and Annual Calendar, a full calendar and even a Minute Repeater. The only...

    ESCAPEMENT Watch Review: Frédérique Constant Manufacture Worldtimer

    Louis Cottier invented the world timer in 1931. The complication has long been the preserve of the most prestigious watch companies.

    Dive Watches 101: How Swatch Helped Rescue the Dive Watch

    The quartz watch revolution (aka “quartz crisis”) of the 1970s affected not only the watch industry in general, but also, of course, the dive watch category within it. Considering the number of model launches, innovations and constant improvements to such watches in the 1960s and the first half of the ’70s, the ’80s and early...

    Speake-Marin’s Spirit Wing Commander Goes Into the Wild

    At Monochrome Watches, we believe watches are made to “live” — to be worn and to have their own story, visible through the marks that adorning their cases and straps.
