Geneva Watch Days is happening now, but let’s take a look back at some of the best stories from the past month. We begin with a story about GMT watches. Some argue that the GMT complication is the most useful, and it would be hard to disagree. If you are Replica Watches UK looking for a GMT watch, we found two exceptionally thoughtful and accessible designs. Speaking of affordable watches, we also take a closer look at Tissot’s new 35mm and 40mm PRX watches with green dials. We also have the CASIO A159WAD-1D, which is probably the world’s most affordable factory diamond-set watch.
From around the Web, we give you some tips on how to spot a fake dial on a vintage Rolex Datejust. We also talk a little about the hobby of watch-collecting, the watch industry, and how recent trends and developments have left one collector feeling jaded about watches. And finally, we have a story about the rising occurrence of watch thefts and how it has altered the wearing habits of some collectors.
1. ACTUALLY AFFORDABLE: BOTTOM-DOLLAR GMT WATCHES
In our highly interconnected world, a watch that can show the time in multiple time zones is one of the most useful things we can have on our wrists. This explains why GMT watches are so popular. Unfortunately, the cost of such watches — particularly mechanical ones — remains relatively high. However, if we were willing to bend the rules a bit, there is an affordable option. The new Seiko 5 Sports GMT is easily one of the most affordable mechanical GMT watches that you can find today. It might be not a true GMT with an independently adjustable hour hand, but there’s still a lot to like about it. And then there’s the trusty Casio World Time AE1200, which has to be one of the world’s most affordable world-time watches.
2. HANDS-ON: JAEGER-LECOULTRE POLARIS PERPETUAL CALENDAR WATCH
When Jaeger-LeCoultre introduced the Polaris in 2018, we rolex replica uk knew it was only going to be a matter of time before we get more complex versions. The early three-hand models had so much dial real estate that it was obvious Jaeger-LeCoultre would do more to take advantage of it. And now, we know exactly what happens when you take a Polaris and cram as much as you can onto the dial because they recently released the Polaris Perpetual Calendar watch. With four sub-dials, this watch is symmetrical, harmonious, and tells a lot of information. And with a water resistance rating of 100 meters, this watch is, in many ways, easily one of the best perpetual calendar sports watches you can buy and wear every day.
3. HANDS-ON: TISSOT PRX GREEN DIAL WATCHES 35MM VS. 40MM MODELS
We all know watches with blue dials are immensely popular, but could green be the next hot color? Tissot seems to think so because it recently added new models with green dials to the very successful PRX collection. Unless you have been living under a rock, you’ll know that the PRX series has been a massive success for Tissot. Mostly, it’s the integrated bracelet, which, when combined with the case design, gives it a look that is reminiscent of a watch from Le Brassus.

4. CASIO A159WAD-1D WATCH REVIEW: SHOULD YOU BUY THE CHEAPEST-EVER DIAMOND-SET WATCH?
There’s something oddly refreshing about wearing a watch that costs less than a meal at a fancy steakhouse. I think it’s largely because we don’t have to babysit it. There’s no need to worry about getting mugged (a big problem, these days) and there’s no need to watch out for door knobs or tables. Furthermore, an affordable watch doesn’t necessarily mean it’s unattractive or uninteresting. The Casio A159WAD-1D is proof of that. It has a charming retro look and, most incredibly, features two natural diamonds above and below its digital display. You read that right, these are natural diamonds — not synthetic ones. To find out more about the watch and its diamonds, you know what to do.
5. HANDS-ON: BULOVA ARCHIVE RE-EDITION PARKING METER CHRONOGRAPH WATCH
Bulova is, of course, one of the most storied brands in American watchmaking. It is also an expert at vintage reissues — the Devil Diver and Lunar Pilot are two fine https://www.watchesukuk.com/ examples. The brand’s latest vintage reissue is the Archive Re-Edition Parking Meter Chronograph, which is based on the reference 1008-6W chronograph from 1973. If you can’t see it, it’s called the Parking Meter because the outline of the subdials resembles a parking meter. Look closely and you’ll realize that this isn’t an exact reissue. The subdial at 12 o’clock is a 24-hour indicator that hints at the movement within. Yes, it may have a quartz movement, but if you can look past that, I think this is a very charming vintage-inspired watch.
