The must-have Macro Loupe for all watch lovers

The main criterion that led to my purchase is this incredible "linen canvas" dial but it is not the only asset of this watch. It is very thin and therefore very pleasant to wear. The day can be displayed in English or in kanji. The applique logos (Seiko & Lord matic) bring relief, as well as the indexes. There is great Seiko in this Seiko. A great treat for not much money (300 euros on Chrono 24).

superb dial, very thin case, for a very sexy price

This is the BR V2 92 steel heritage model with the tropical rubber strap. A military-style watch, very readable. The cream color of the hands and indexes gives a nice vintage look. I love the delta wing-shaped second hand base (looks like the wing of the Mirage 2000 with its single engine). The window is very discreet thanks to its black background and its small size. The watch is very flat and its rubber strap is very comfortable to wear.

a good military style watch

I bought this hefty piece (it's quite heavy) in the early 2000s. I don't wear it on my wrist anymore, but I still carry it in my heart :) because it brings back memories of a particular period in my life. Maybe I'll wear it again someday. It still looks great, it's very legible, the sunburst dial is beautiful, and the crystal that follows the curve of the case is a nice touch...that's it, I want to wear it again!

I'm not wearing it at the moment, but I'm attached to it.

I was looking for a fairly robust, waterproof to 200m minimum, stylish and with a budget of less than 900 euros. I went to my favorite watch jeweler (Mr. Medard in Versailles) who then introduced me to this incredible and fairly exclusive model because it is an edition intended for the US market only. The dial reproduces the scales of a sea turtle. The variations in color and texture of the dial are captivating. The only small downside is the not great precision of the movement (30 seconds per day is starting to be a lot) .. despite its diameter of 45 mm it is easy to wear and is very comfortable.

Sea turtle SRPH55: an incredible dial

When I bought (second-hand) this omega ref 3590.50.00 tritium from 1996, the price was still reasonable compared to a sub from the same period. The patina of the tritium indexes is superb with its eggshell color. The watch is versatile and can be dressed with multiple bracelets that make it either dressy or sporty. The original bracelet is also beautifully made even if the clasp is a bit archaic today. Despite an announced diameter of 42mm, the moonwatch is perfect for a small wrist and very comfortable.

an iconic watch at an (almost) reasonable price

The Oyster Perpetual is an iconic watch. Very simple, with a perfectly refined design, it is the ideal watchmaking ally in many situations. I chose this model (ref 114200) for its super original color with the olive dial and orange index markers. It is one of the watches that I wear the most, it is incredibly comfortable and very precise. I love it. I have tried several bracelets but I always come back to the Oyster which sublimates it to perfection.

Classic and original at the same time

<p dir="ltr"><strong>Edox</strong> brand, founded in <strong>1884</strong> by Christian Ruefli-Flury in Bienne, Switzerland, is a luxury watch brand renowned for its innovation and expertise. The name "Edox" comes from ancient Greek, meaning "measurement of time", reflecting the brand's mission.</p>
<h2 dir="ltr">Origins and Foundation</h2>
<p dir="ltr">The story of Edox begins when Christian Ruefli-Flury, a talented watchmaker, gave his wife a watch of his own making for her birthday. Impressed by the quality of the work, she encouraged him to start his own business. So in 1884 he founded Edox in Bienne, initially specializing in ladies' pocket watches.</p>
<h2 dir="ltr">Expansion et Innovations</h2>
<p dir="ltr">After the death of Ruefli-Flury in 1921, Robert Kaufmann-Hug took over the management of the company and oriented production towards wristwatches, anticipating the transition of the watch industry. Under his leadership, Edox experienced significant growth, employing more than 500 watchmakers by 1955 and becoming one of Switzerland's leading watch companies.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Edox stands out for its technical innovations, particularly in the field of waterproofing. In 1961, the brand launched the Edox Delphin, featuring a double bottom, special seals and a double-seal crown system, setting new standards in water and shock resistance. This patented technology is still used by several major Swiss watch brands.</p>
<p dir="ltr">In 1965, Edox presented the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/edox/hydro-sub">Edox Hydro-Sub</a>, a revolutionary diving watch resistant to a depth of 50 ATM, thanks to an innovative crown system with tension ring, offering increased protection against shocks and guaranteed water resistance.</p>
<p dir="ltr">In 1970, the brand introduced the <strong>Edox Geoscope</strong>, the first real world time watch, displaying the time of more than 50 countries around the world, as well as local time, thanks to a dial displaying a world map rotating in 24 hours.</p>
<h2 dir="ltr">Challenges and Renaissance</h2>
<p dir="ltr">The quartz crisis of the 1970s posed major challenges for the Swiss watch industry. Edox is not spared and must adapt its production by integrating quartz movements. In 1983, the company was bought by Victor Strambini, who relocated the headquarters to Geneva, in the Swiss Jura. Under his leadership, Edox remains one of the rare independent Swiss watch brands, continuing to innovate while respecting watchmaking traditions.</p>
<p dir="ltr">In 1998, Edox set a record with the Edox Les B&eacute;monts Ultra Slim, the thinnest calendar watch in the world, with a movement just 1.4 mm thick, a technical feat unmatched to date</p>
<h2 dir="ltr">Sports Commitment and Modern Collections</h2>
<p dir="ltr">Edox partners with various water and mechanical sports, becoming the official timekeeper of prestigious competitions such as the World Rally Championship (WRC) and the Extreme Sailing Series. These partnerships reflect the brand's commitment to precision and performance.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Edox's contemporary collections, such as the Edox Delfin Mecano, the Edox Chronorally, the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/edox/skydiver">Edox SkyDiver</a> or the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/edox/les_bemonts">Edox Les B&eacute;monts</a>, combine sporty design and elegance, incorporating modern materials like titanium, ceramic and carbon fiber, while maintaining the brand's heritage.</p>
<h2 dir="ltr">Conclusion</h2>
<p dir="ltr">With more than 130 years of history, Edox embodies Swiss watchmaking excellence, combining tradition and innovation. Its commitment to quality, precision and timeless design continues to appeal to watch enthusiasts around the world, consolidating its reputation as a brand of trust and prestige.</p>

<p dir="ltr">(Updated January 2025)</p>

I bought this Edox while looking for a watch from my year of birth that meets several criteria: from 1977, mechanical, with tritium, typical 70s design. The orange gradient (one of my favorite colors) is superb. The design of the case is typical of the 70s. Mounted on a beautiful black alligator strap from ABP, it is an elegant watch that gives me great pleasure. Excellent price-pleasure ratio since I paid only 70 euros for it.

the watch of my birth year

I was looking for a skeleton watch with a Swiss movement, because I like watch movements, a Swiss movement was the holy grail of what I was looking for, but the price is often around €2000, it's not so easy to seize the opportunity, you think about it several times. Luckily I found this watch at a very very interesting price, I ordered it straight away. It meets my expectations, seeing the movement in action is really very interesting and this watch can be worn with multiple bracelets, with a leather one to give it a dressy side, and a Nato for the sports version. Everything suits it, it is accurate to +20s/day, the movement turns as it should, it's perfect. Maybe the date would have been a plus in the movement complication but it would have been a little hidden. Very happy with this watch bought at a very good price.

Skeleton watch for movement enthusiasts

My GMT titanium diver, this EDOX Class One Diver watch is a model designed for divers, offering water resistance up to 500 meters (or 50 ATM/bar). As a dive watch, it is equipped with features suited to this environment, such as a readable dial, luminescent hands and markers, and a screw-down crown. It may also include a unidirectional rotating bezel to track dive time. The materials used are generally corrosion-resistant, such as stainless steel for the case and bracelet, and sapphire for the crystal, in order to withstand salt water and pressure.

EDOX Class One Diver 500m

This watch is not one of my favorites and yet...
It has everything a great watch has, polished and brushed steel, 12-sided bezel, integrated bracelet, simple and effective sunray dial, hour and minute hand, just to make us forget that it is a quartz (very appreciable, it must be recognized.
But its advantage is its thickness, which must not exceed 5mm
Be careful with its diameter because it exceeds 42mm, I know that it exists in smaller ones for women.

<p class="p1">(Mise &agrave; jour Mars 2026)</p>

<p dir="ltr"><strong>Apose </strong>is a French watch brand founded in <strong>2020</strong> in Mulhouse (France) with the stated ambition of building a collection of watches made in France, automatic, high-end, and with a clean design.</p>
<h3 dir="ltr">Brand story: 100% French mission</h3>
<p dir="ltr">Born amidst the burgeoning French micro-brand scene, Apose champions a "return to purity" approach that opposes the overabundance of complications and flashy styles. The direction is clear <strong>-minimalist design, components sourced in France</strong>, local assembly and tricolor partnerships (dials, hands, bracelets and cases&hellip;), all managed by Romain Thieriet, a talented local watchmaker, who joined Apose from the beginning of the adventure.</p>
<p dir="ltr">The goal is to prove that a contemporary and desirable watch can also showcase French craftsmanship, so the promise of Apose lies in the equation "French elegance, mechanical reliability and a localized supply chain".</p>
<h3 dir="ltr">Apose: minimalist design and subtle elegance</h3>
<p dir="ltr">Apose's formal identity is based on understated volumes and controlled contrasts: a 316L steel case with taut facets, a case architecture often resembling three tiers, alternating brushed and polished finishes, and multi-level dials with raised hour markers and distinctive hands. The ergonomics are designed to be universal, centered around a signature 40mm diameter and a slim profile, with anti-reflective sapphire crystals and realistic water resistance (up to 10 ATM depending on the model). The aim is to create a dress watch, an everyday companion rather than a showpiece, hence the fact <strong>that readability and fit when worn always take precedence over the waouh effect.</strong></p>
<h3 dir="ltr">Apose Collections: N&deg;3-100, Radial, Douz and Pur</h3>
<p dir="ltr">The Apose range is structured into clearly differentiated families, whose evolution illustrates the increasing "Frenchification" of the components: the N&deg;3-100 series (collection with exclusively French components), the Radial variations (fluted ring on dial), the Douz and Pur collections with more refined aesthetic variants, each designed for a chic everyday look, rather than a sporty one.</p>
<p dir="ltr">The bracelets, offered in steel or full-grain leather, were developed in particular using offcuts of Longchamp leather for certain series, reinforcing the DNA of a French urban watch that embraces its style choices without resorting to spectacular complications, so that <strong>the choice between the collections depends on the atmosphere and style of these dials.</strong></p>
<ul>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
<p dir="ltr" role="presentation"><strong>Apose n&deg;3-100 </strong>- Limited series &ldquo;100% French&rdquo;<strong>:</strong> components of French origin, strap made from Longchamp leather hides, French Pequignet Initial movement (65 hours reserve).</p>
</li>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
<p dir="ltr" role="presentation"><strong>Apose Radial</strong> - Dial highlighted by an anodized fluted ring, multiple colours (Indigo, Azure, etc.), steel or leather bracelet and France &Eacute;bauches movement (44 hours reserve).</p>
</li>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
<p dir="ltr" role="presentation"><strong>Apose Pur </strong>- Apose's most minimalist collection, yet also its very essence: a polished dial for intense color depth. France &Eacute;bauches movement (44-hour power reserve).</p>
</li>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
<p dir="ltr" role="presentation"><strong>Apose Douz</strong> - A more understated variation of dial N&deg;3-100 with France &Eacute;bauches movement (44 hours power reserve).</p>
</li>
</ul>
<p dir="ltr">In 2022, Apose reached a symbolic milestone with the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/apose/n%C2%B03-100">Apose N&deg;3-100</a> the edition adopts the French "Initial" caliber (65-hour power reserve, 4Hz, tungsten oscillating weight) manufactured by Pequignet, while the straps, made from Longchamp leather offcuts, serve a "100% French" specification for components and assembly. This configuration is not intended to make the other No. 3 models obsolete, but to demonstrate the industrial feasibility of a high level of "Made in France" on a limited-edition watch, meaning that the <strong>this industrial feat primarily serves to ensure overall design coherence across the supply chain.</strong></p>
<h3 dir="ltr">Apose Buying Guide: How to choose your French automatic watch?</h3>
<p dir="ltr">To select your Apose, start with the line: Apose Radial if you like a dial enlivened by a fluted ring and more pronounced contrasts, Apose N&deg;3-100 if the "fully French" aspect (including the Pequignet movement) is crucial, Apose Pur or Apose Douz if you want maximum simplicity. Next, consider the dial color and bracelet texture (handmade steel or leather), then check the comfort at 40 mm in diameter and the thickness on the wrist. <strong>Finally, keep in mind that the true benefit of an Apose lies in the balance between design, legibility, and the origin of the components.</strong></p>
<h3 dir="ltr">Conclusion</h3>
<p dir="ltr"><strong>In just a few years, Apose has established a recognizable style- clean lines</strong>, architecturally designed dials, meticulously crafted straps - and a rare ambition to fully "Frenchify" the range. The proposition is clear and transparent for the buyer: an automatic watch with a contemporary design that showcases a network of French partners. If you are hesitating between an Apose Radial or an Apose N&deg;3-100, for example, first consider your relationship to "Made in France," to color, and to versatility.</p>
