Hands-on : Mathey-Tissot MT369 AMWG Exclusive

Review
In recent weeks I had the chance to try the Mathey-Tissot MT369 MT369 AMWG Exclusive and I have to say that I enjoyed wearing it. This watch came to me thanks to Vincent Ho who is the admin of the Asia Mechanical Watch Group on Facebook. The one that I received is now sold out but you can note (as it’s engraved on the caseback) that it was a special edition made for AMWG members.

Why Fake Watches Are For Losers

Why Fake Watches Are For Losers

Opinion
Who do you respect more? Someone with a Seiko 5 or someone with a fake Rolex? Perhaps a silly question, but think about it.

NTH Watches: Submariner Homage

News
                          NTH watches? Never heard of? Yes, you have because it's by the makers of Lew & Huey. They wanted to do something different, and that is pay homage to some of the greatest watch designs out there. Clearly they couldn't use their Lew & Huey brand for that, so they started NTH. What does it stand for? There are a few explanations for that, but my favorite is the one that says that the letters stand for "Nod to History". Why? Because that is exactly what the brand is all about.
