A square G-SHOCK with a fabric strap shouldn’t cause this much debate. The Casio G-SHOCK DW-5600MNC-8A2JF does, because it takes the familiar DW-5600 shape and swaps the usual resin band for a stretchy cloth loop with a FIDLOCK magnetic mechanical clasp. That makes it more than another color drop. It’s a stock story for buyers […]

A new microbrand GMT doesn’t earn attention just because it has a fourth hand. The Split GMT is interesting because it starts with a real travel watch job: jump the local hour hand when you land, keep home time visible, and wear something that doesn’t look like another office-safe steel sports watch. 🛒 Split GMT

Most watches tell you the time. Citizen’s newest one tells you where the stars are. Price: ¥363,000 ($2,262) Where to Buy: Casio Japan The brand’s luxury division, Campanola, has revived one of its most quietly astonishing ideas, a wristwatch that carries a rotating map of the night sky, to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the

If you have ever liked the idea of an outdoor watch but not the wrist computer that usually comes bolted to it, the Pro Trek PRJ-01 is built for you. Most rugged watches now pile on GPS, phone notifications, a stack of sensors, and yet another screen to charge, and that is exactly the part

Most heritage reissues sell you a feeling, not a function. They copy an old dial, borrow an old name, and let nostalgia do the rest. Every so often one brings back something genuinely useful instead. 🛒 Price: CHF 1,956 (About $2,435) Where to Buy: Ollech & Wajs That is the case with the Ollech &

Citizen’s latest Spider-Man watch is the kind of collaboration that only makes sense if the dial does something you can’t get from a normal Citizen Eco-Drive. The new AW1437-61W does. In daylight, it’s a comic-style Spider-Man scene on a dark bracelet watch. In the dark, the whole mood changes into a green luminous outline with

Most “new” dive watches are the same watch wearing a different strap. A brand rolls out fresh colors, calls it a launch, and counts on nobody looking past the marketing shots to the movement inside, which often hasn’t changed in years. That sets up the only test that matters for a color-drop diver: whether anything

Gulf Livery Lands on TAG Heuer’s Entry-Level Racer TAG Heuer’s Gulf Oil collaborations usually land on the Monaco, the square-cased icon Steve McQueen made famous. This time, with the new TAG Heuer Formula 1 Automatic Chronograph x Gulf, the blue and orange stripes run across a mechanical Formula 1 for the first time, the line

Casio’s marking Pokémon’s 30th anniversary with a G-Shock that any 90s kid will clock from across the room. The GA-110PKM-7A leans hard into the original 1996 games, pulling the red, blue, and green palette straight off the era that started it all. It’s the kind of piece that’s built as much for the nostalgia hit

Digital watches spent years stuck in two camps. One is the rugged resin slab built for trailheads and gym timers. The other is the retro reissue chasing a 1980s memory on a tiny steel bracelet. Almost nothing sat in between, which is strange, because that quiet middle is where most people actually want to live.

Casio recently dropped one of the most striking DW-5600 variants in years, and it’s pulled straight from the glow of Japan’s late-night streets. The new DW-5600AKA-4, known as the Aka-Chochin G-Shock, takes the red paper lantern that marks Japan’s taverns and wraps that warmth around the toughest digital watch shape ever made. It’s built in

Timex just teased its loudest movie tie-in of 2026, and it isn’t Superman this time. The brand unveiled a three-way collab that pairs DC Studios’ upcoming SUPERGIRL film with rock legends Blondie and the ’70s Q Timex line.
