I never imagined, when I started this kooky experiment, that I'd fall in love with watches – much less write about them full-time. And yet here I am, HODINKEE's newest staff writer. Before I joined the team for real, there was one last thing I had to do.

We're doubling down on our editorial staff. Here's who's joining us – and what they'll all be doing.

The birth of a truly modern complication.

The '90s embraced two-tone as much as any decade, and the Datejust was the leader of the pack.

So no one told us Breitling was gonna be this way – or these Breitlings are makin' me thirsty!

In a decade that saw the resurgence of mechanical watchmaking we can be spoiled for choices.
