Review – Glashütte Original SeaQ Panorama Date

During Time To Move, Swatch Group own event to present the new collections, Glashütte Original has presented several watches totally in line with its usual conception of watchmaking, such as the facelifted Senator Chronometer or an engraved PanoInverse. Yet, the star of the show, the watch that the Saxon brand presented first, the main novelty for 2019… is a watch none of us actually expected from the brand; a dive watch collection named SeaQ. Following our first look right after its presentation, it is time to now have a closer look at the modern SeaQ Panorama Date, to see if this Saxon dive watch is convincing (or not).

Hands-on – Live Impressions on the New Omega Seamaster Diver 300M James Bond

Last week, Omega introduced a new Bond-themed Seamaster Diver 300M, inspired by the 1969 movie “On Her Majesty’s Secret Service”. When we posted this watch on Instagram, the reactions were telling. So did the comments below the article we published, with press images, right after the watch was presented. As always, it is hard to judge on such images, so we decided to give this watch a second chance, but this time live and on the wrist.
