Simple and effective

While dive watches are currently flooding the market (a bit too much for my liking), over 10 years ago I wanted to buy my first watch of this type without breaking the bank. That's how I came across Longines, somewhat by chance, but with the reputation that came with it, despite its less-than-ideal positioning at the time, given its history. The Hydro Conquest is a classic, and this one is a quartz (at the time, quartz and mechanical movements were identical, but the mechanical cost 50% more... I didn't see the poi…

I'd been eyeing a Jalaper watch for a long time, especially their first model (DB5), being an Aston Martin fan! Working in Brussels, I'd visited their store several times, but this watch never made it onto my shortlist. Then, in October 2025, they offered their subscribers a remarkable deal that finally convinced me to buy it. It took two months to receive it (the watches are made to order), and I must say the service was impeccable: same-day email replies, a small gift to apologize for the delay—in short, it's a m…
