For those of you who don’t know, Kruger was the titanium chronograph we launched in 2022. It had a mecha-quartz movement (i.e. battery powered), with a mechanical chronograph module. The Kruger received excellent reviews and is still one of our most requested models, so we are dying to bring it back and make some improvements […]
I wanted to talk a bit about the Peregrine. A lot of thinking went into it, but it is probably the most underrated model in our lineup. I think it deserves a bit more credit. PEREGRINE V1 After the success of our maiden model the Tugela, I really started to explore the movement options […]
In the world of horology, military watches occupy a unique and revered space. Combining durability, precision, and functionality, these timepieces are built to endure the harshest conditions while maintaining accuracy, making them indispensable to soldiers. Among the most collectible and celebrated military watches are a series of twelve wristwatches. In 1945, the British Ministry of […]

They often spend days or weeks under pressure, completing complex tasks that only human hands can achieve at extreme depth. To understand what sat diving is, we need to understand the breathing gases divers use. For standard dives, the breathing gas […]
A customer asked me the other day about the scratch resistance of the Tugela V4, and whether scratches would show on the bead-blasted surface. I had to be honest with him. The case of the Tugela is not very scratch-resistant. It will show scratches and signs of wear if it is being worn hard like […]
For many of us 80’s kids, no other fighter jet inspired more excitement than the F-14 Tomcat. That is thanks largely to the movie Topgun, but I think its awesomeness was prevalent in many 80’s artifacts – books, toys, models and playing cards. Finishing the Airfix model of the F-14A Tomcat was one of my […]
Growing up, I was passionate about model fighter jets. My shelves were littered with kit-set planes from almost every decade since the 1940’s. After I shared a post about the F-16 Falcon a few months ago a couple of you mentioned the Saab 35 Draken, the Swedish fighter jet with the same name as our […]
Hey Folks. Most of you know about the MOLLE pouches that our watches come in. The idea of these pouches is that they can be attached to a larger bag, and reused to carry other things like tools, a phone or some useful supplies. One of the ideas that came from the community was a […]
G’day folks. One of the things I get very excited about is a rugged 4WD ute (that’s a truck for the rest of the world). So I thought I would put together a little write-up on one of the iconic 4WDs from down under, the Land Cruiser 70 series. And since it’s such an instutute […]
Hey folks. In improving myself, I have learnt that having irrefutable standards is the key to reaching the goals and dreams we have. It starts with the little things. Making your bed. Flossing regularly. Wiping down the benchtop after making a sandwich. Brushing out the toilet after taking a… You get the picture. When we […]
