In today's podcast I'd like to consider what actually makes a timeless watch design. Many icons of watch design exist from the Omega Speedmaster to the Rolex Submariner yet there doesn't seem to be any real formula to creating one. Is it simple design, brand presence or modernity? Let me know what you think in the comment section below. #iconicwatches #rolexsubmariner #omegaspeedmaster Read full articles and listen to podcasts at www.watchchronicler.com For any questions or business enquiries, please email me at: enquiries@watchchronicler.com Music: Blue Danube (by Strauss) by Strauss Creative ..read more

Breitling has appeared a troubled brand over the last few decades from financial instability in the 1970s to increasingly misguided designs for ever higher prices in the mid-2000s. However, the last decade has seen the arrival of in-house movements, revised collections and a newfound appreciation for some of Breitling's oldest and most important designs. In this podcast, I would like to speak about just how Breitling has revived itself. #breitling #chronomat #navitimer Read full articles and listen to podcasts at www.watchchronicler.com For any questions or business enquiries, please email me ..read more

In today's podcast (audio only, I'm afraid - I don't fancy any libel threats given the subject) I would like to discuss what a watch review can never tell you. No, I don't mean that a biased review will mislead you - that's just a fact of the trade. What I am referring to is the myriad of problems which can go wrong after you buy the watch and which can leave you out of pocket and (understandably) aggravated. These range from poor customer service to poorly designed components. #watchreview #watchservice #watchchronicler To get a discount on CHRONEXT and to support WATCH CHRONICLER, use this d ..read more

The 2021 Omega Seamaster 300 presents a very new face to a historically-unsuccessful model in Omega's collection. By dropping its ceramic bezel and adopting a more old-fashioned style, this new version gives a different attitude and feel to the collection whilst a model in Bronze-Gold offers a unique alternative to steel. #omegawatches #omegaseamaster #jamesbondwatch To get a discount on CHRONEXT and to support WATCH CHRONICLER, use this discount code: WATCHCHRONICLER Follow this link to see CHRONEXT’s full range of watches: http://chronext.co.uk/?utm_source=watchchronicler&utm_medium=infl ..read more

Sandwiched between American heritage and Swiss manufacturing, Hamilton represents a confusing company with a vast number of products. However, I think that there's much more here than first meets the eye as, in reality, Hamilton's contributions to both American and Swiss watchmaking go much further than you might expect. #hamiltonwatch #swatchgroup #americanwatches To get a discount on CHRONEXT and to support WATCH CHRONICLER, use this discount code: WATCHCHRONICLER Follow this link to see CHRONEXT’s full range of watches: http://chronext.co.uk/?utm_source=watchchronicler&utm_medium=influe ..read more

Watch second tracks may seem like minor details of watch design yet, in reality, they represent a crucial part of most timepieces from dress watches to chronographs. In today’s episode, I’d like to take a look at the three main sins committed by major watch brands which impair or worsen the design of second indications as well as the very best watch designs where second legibility is concerned. The results may surprise you… #chronograph #watchdesign #watches2021 #watchchronicler To get a discount on CHRONEXT and to support WATCH CHRONICLER, use this discount code: WATCHCHRONICLER Follow this l ..read more
