Ready To Make A Splash, Zodiac’s Sea Wolf Is Back.

Since 1882, Zodiac has strived to become one of the world’s most accomplished watch manufacturers and, frankly, I believe they have. Zodiac is a legit insider’s brand. What I mean by this is if you know Zodiac there’s really no doubt that you know your watches. No, you’re not going to find a Zodiac on the dude donning a Charvet shirt and a hand-folded Kiton tie.

To say the least, Omega is a spectacular brand. While Omega can boast many significant horological space and land achievements, let’s face it, water covers more than seventy percent of the earth’s surface, so let’s go for a dive.

Searching For A Diver At SIHH 2014

Today, I would like to introduce the most recent creation by Cartier, the Calibre de Cartier Diver Watch. This watch is indeed amazing, but had a totally unexpected release earlier this year. As most know, Cartier has produced some of the upmost exceptional masterpieces of jewelry and horology in the world, but within the 167 years of Cartier’s existence, the Calibre de Cartier Diver is the only serious diver’s watch in the company’s timekeeping lineage.
