The must-have Macro Loupe for all watch lovers

This Glashütte Original holds a special place in my collection. It is the only model that holds its own against the Royal Oak in terms of caliber finish. The plate, bridges, and decorations of the oscillating weight are exceptional and probably superior - in my opinion - to that of the open case back of my Royal Oak 15300.

I bought it at auction without having tried it on at exceptional price conditions! I took care to have it serviced at the brand's boutique in Paris where my contacts had identified that it was going to be auctioned. A great start to my relationship with the brand that allowed me - a priori - to obtain a certificate of authenticity in good and due form.

Paradoxically, this is a watch that I rarely wear because it is a tad too big and does not sit well on my wrist! Am I deformed ;-) Surely not, but that's how it is... but as I don't sell watches, it has remained in my collection, to my great delight as an irrational enthusiast.

A caliber with exceptional finishes

If you haven't noticed, I'm a fan of the Omega brand! The reason is simple and illustrated by this watch, an Omega Constellation that looks nothing like the other Constellations! That's the charm of vintage Omega, fantastic looks that you don't expect!

The rectangle watch is not something easy! The Dunhill Facet is the only other rectangle watch in my collection with this Constellation. For the record, I found it at auction on Jauce, the Japanese auction site, then my wife wanted it and a few weeks later it arrived 😎 Quite tired, but I had planned to send it to a watchmaker specializing in these "old" Omegas. Before that, my wife and I realized that this model - for men - could not be adjusted to the size of her wrist! If you look at it closely, it is trapezoidal in shape, unsuitable for fine adjustments... Good news in the end, I kept it for myself as planned.

The drawn-line dial is magnificent and goes perfectly with the same drawn lines on the case. The two Omega logos in appliques (very 70s) give it the pep that it would have lacked with its dominant silver gray... This Omega Genève joins my Omega collection and in particular the Omega Genève integrated bracelet which sports the same type of dial.

➡️ The construction of the case is also very original because the movement is housed in a cell that unscrews (4 screws) on the back of the watch, like some Omega Genève or Omega Dynamic. I have not found - if you have any information, I am interested - a leather strap suitable for this removable cell. Regarding price, we are on a full cost price of €600 including the watch, sales costs and reconditioning.

One of my rare rectangle watches

Watches and cars are often winning combinations and without originality I am one of them… For a long time I have wondered about the opportunity to buy a Porsche Design watch whose name alone indicates that it is neither a Porsche nor a watch… In fact, it is quickly understood that Porsche has approached the best watchmakers to offer models with an aesthetic in line with the brand… This one is an Eterna – one of the most underrated historic brands – with quartz with a simple, radical style, all roundness and geometry… like a Porsche 911… Ah, does love make you blind? I don’t think so… The quality of manufacture, the purity of the white dial, a screw-down crown, a sapphire crystal… It has everything going for it except an engine worthy of the name… a bit like a 912. All it is missing is its original strap that I have not given up hope of finding one day… during a ride in a Porsche ;-)

A matter of line

This is surely the most thoughtful choice I have had to make when buying a watch. Without being particularly passionate about chronographs, I was looking for a historical model that had been released without interruption since its creation - 1957 in the case of the first Speedmaster -

It is a search in history, mine and that of a watch that has evolved over time like me. This adventure led me to turn to Omega - undoubtedly one of my favorite brands - because it has offered hundreds of models - many have disappeared - while developing some of their models that have become historic, such as the Speed or the Seamaster! It is a simple, efficient and recognizable chronograph, of course, but which knows how to remain discreet. This Speed - reference 145022 - bears the marks of time like all vintage watches of this era and suits me well.

I had a blast understanding the differences between the Speed models and identifying and validating that this one had all the characteristics of a model manufactured in 1970. A loop is closed, an adventure has ended, until the next one...

A 50 year old vintage for my 50th birthday

It was time to have a G-Shock and the opportunity came during a vacation in Malaysia... For months, friends had been bugging me about the absence of a G-Shock in my watch collection... It's true after all, who doesn't have their G-Shock?

Although this is not my personal trajectory, the holiday atmosphere and the opportunity to also offer one to my son seduced me. I hesitated between a yellow one - my son's - and this one, the GLX5600 reference displaying the tide times... Sparkling and tangy, it's exactly what I needed to go fishing or boating. Ivan, one of the guests of the Dialicious YouTube channel convinced me of the relevance of the history model with its unique design... 40% off for less than €60 and good memories, isn't that - also - what we look for in a watch... Of course, it is neither radio-controlled, nor solar, nor Bluetooth... but it gives me the tide of my favorite fishing spot allowing me to escape for a moment ;-)

How long will the romance last? One thing is for sure, my son and I both have a watch in common with the holiday memories that go with it... and that is priceless 👍

📣 Finally my first G-Shock

Since I gave my son a Citizen Promaster Eco-Drive last year, the little seed has continued to germinate to also give me an Eco-Drive. OK, we are not the nobility of mechanical watchmaking but rather in the functional watch that tells the time very well. It must be recognized that the operation of the eco-drive is remarkable.

I had already been troubled when acquiring the Promaster on the movement in two-second increments of the second hand! Sacrilege, it is new and does not work properly... Even constant for this one but with experience in addition 😎 Its thwarted movement is simply an indicator of low battery charge. A short day with the current little sun and Hop it resumes its jerky rhythm characteristic of quartz watches!

For this one?

I had already hesitated a few months ago with a promo on a merchant site and by dint of procrastinating, the lucky one was gone! Chance made me meet a buyer of this same watch but with a black dial. I put it on my wrist and it just matched. The design, the lightness and the visual and touch softness are very very cool...

OK, the look is not ultra-innovative either... But it is precisely a watch made to be functional, without more or less questionable aesthetic attributes and especially not a "Fashion Watch". A beautiful watch, simple to have one on the wrist - otherwise I am unhappy!

From a figurative point of view we are close to the void but from a literal point of view, it is a good 3-hand watch and the date that gives the time in good conditions of aesthetics and sobriety... The most important thing is elsewhere, here we are both, with my son, in Citizen Boys 👍

Simple, sober and light for every day

In 1982, Porsche won its 7th victory at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, with the Porsche 956 driven by Jacky Ickx and Derek Bell (his 6th and last victory) in the colors of the Rothmans cigarette manufacturer.
To commemorate this victory, Porsche Design created this special edition (1956 ex) with a strap in the colors of the car. Fan of the brand and this race, fan of cushion cases (see my opinion on my Panerai Luminor Marina), I really liked this watch and I bought it immediately. It is just a simple Quartz watch (Ronda 515 movement), no chrono, just the date at 6 o'clock, I find it very pleasant to wear and very pretty with its brushed metal silver counter background with Racing logo at 9 o'clock, its bright colors and its hand that reminds me of the red zone...
It is light, a little bulky (42mm) but quite thin (10.5 mm). The strap is a mix of leather and fabric, a little stiff. The back of the watch has the Porsche logo and the edition number (mine is 1610/1956), and on the crown, you can see the Porsche crest. 
A nice watch to wear on a summer evening with bright colors reminiscent of the colors of the Porsche Rothmans team.

La marque&nbsp;Serica a &eacute;t&eacute; cr&eacute;&eacute;e en 2019 par J&eacute;r&ocirc;me Burget et 3 amis &agrave; Paris, en France.

Ce lieu fait &eacute;cho &agrave; la gen&egrave;se de la marque, qui vise &agrave; concevoir des montres m&eacute;caniques de qualit&eacute; au style n&eacute;or&eacute;tro, pr&ecirc;tes &agrave; vous suivre aux confins du monde.

L'une des particularit&eacute;s de cette marque est que son nom n'appara&icirc;t nulle part sur le cadran, afin de pousser le passionn&eacute; &agrave; acheter un design, des finitions et des proportions, et pas seulement un nom.

(Mise &agrave; jour Novembre 2024)

The brand Serica was created in 2019 by J&eacute;r&ocirc;me Burget and 3 friends in Paris, France. The name Serica comes from a lost region at the end of the Far East that the Greeks and Romans named it like this. This place echoes the genesis of the brand, which aims to design quality mechanical watches in a neo-retro style, ready to follow you to the ends of the world.
The range includes watches such as the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/serica/4512">Serica 4512</a>, the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/serica/5303">Serica 5303</a> and the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/serica/8315">Serica 8315</a>. One of the particularities of this brand is that its name does not appear anywhere on the dial, in order to encourage the enthusiast to buy a design, finishes and proportions, and not just a name. In July 2023, Serica launched the Serica 5303 COSC, a chronometer version certified by the Swiss Official Chronometer Testing Institute.
The&nbsp;<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/serica/6190">Serica 6190</a> surfing on the bases of the brand's first reference, the Serica 4512. This 6190 follows the stylistic codes of the brand, lyre lugs, a choice of different dials and the possibility of choosing the position of the crown at 3 o'clock or at &ldquo;Destro&rdquo; mode at 9 o&rsquo;clock. This Serica 6190 is powered with the Soprod M100 caliber COSC (Official Swiss Chronometer Certification) certified, like the current productions of the other 5303 and 8315 models.&nbsp;
Since November 21, 2024, Serica has been offering a very daring new collection... A dress watch off the beaten track called &ldquo;Parade&rdquo; under the reference 1174. These 4 figures, like all other Serica references, offer a symbolism derived from the golden number or divine proportions whose ratio between length and width is 1.174... A novelty offered for pre-order at &euro; 1,490 for one delivery planned for March 2025...
<h2 dir="ltr">How much does a Serica watch cost?</h2>
The prices of Serica watches change and differ depending on the model. Most cost between &euro; 990 and &euro; 1,890 depending on the models and finishes. The brand's GMT model, Serica 8315 GMT Chronometer costs &euro; 1,890 while the latest model launched by Serica, the reference&nbsp;<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/serica/6190">6190</a> is offered to &euro; 990.
Serica is independent and produces around 5,000 watches per year, all models combined. Serica is part of the&nbsp;<a href="https://preprod.dialicious.com/en/top/the_best_french_watch_brands">Top 10 most popular French watch brands</a>, as well as&nbsp;<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/top/the_best_micro_watch_brands">ranking the best micro watch brands</a>.
