With its Spring Drive (read: deadly accurate) movement, smoky black dial, rugged titanium case and bracelet and 600m rating this is one of the ultimate tool divers ever produced.

The GMT received a new thin font faded pepsi insert today and it suits it down to the ground, I think. Turquoise together with deep red is, in my humble opinion, the unrivaled way to go with a gilt dial and although the fat font would have been the correct insert for this watch, I think the numbers tend to be a bit over-powering and take the attention away from the gorgeous dial, where I think the focus really should be. Just a matter of taste but this is about perfect for me.

There are few watches more iconic to the Rolex brand than the original 36mm Explorer I. For it’s simplicity, versatility and robust elegance not too many watches can compete or even dare to try..

Original Omega Mesh are some of my absolute favourite watch bracelets. With their flat sided, brushed links and solid seat-belt type clasp they are also some of the most comfortable and on watches with shrouded lugs they look stunning! The only downside, in fact, is sizing them. The mesh links are not removable, unlike oyster bracelet links which are held in place via screw pins or push pins. Now if you’re like me, one thing that can really bug you is not being able to get the clasp of a bracelet centred correctly. Firstly it looks daft and secondly (and more importantly) the watch head will not stay centred on the top of your wrist if the clasp is not centred on the underside. Get the clasp right and the watch head will sit exactly where you want it which is smack in the middle of the wrist. Here’s how to do it!
