The Tutima Pacific 300 Dive Watch represents a new direction and a significant improvement in the Pacific line. The Pacific has always been popular because of it's low price and fine quality. And while the new Pacific 300 still has an amazingly low price, the quality now equals or exceeds the finest watches that Europe has to offer. Compare this watch to a Breitling, IWC or Omega and you'll immediately recognize what an exceptional watch the Tutima Pacific 300 really is. And the German attention to detail, fit and finish is simply unmatched.

The non-reflective and virtually scratch proof sapphire crystal, large luminous hands and indices together with a reliable ETA 2836-2 self-winding movement guarantee that this watch exceeds the highest professional standards.

Wenger GST Diver

There is no denying that the all new Wenger GST Diver has startling good looks. The all black design is stunning and the attention to detail is top notch. From the Black PVD Stainless Steel Case, to the polished Black patterned dial, to the rugged and heavy all black rubber dive strap, this is one great looking watch. It's the little things that make the difference in a watch like this. Like the multi-level patterned dial and just the right amount of orange accents to set it all off with a prefect balance of good looks and supreme readability.

But it's not just good looks that makes the Wenger GST Diver one of our most highly recommended professional quality dive watches. The watch is made to the toughest Swiss standards for all dive watches. The case is 316 Grade Surgical Stainless Steel. It has both a screw down case back and a screw down crown. The crystal is virtually scratchproof Sapphire glass and the watch is depth tested to 300 meters or 1,000 feet below seal level!

The high contrast white hands and markers make this one of the easiest to read watches we've ever offered, even deep below the surface. The unidirectional diver's bezel has orange markers for measuring air tank reserves and the watch features a date function with the window at the 6 o'clock position.

This watch really is stunning to look at. You really need to see it in person to understand what I am getting at with this blog entry. Sometimes a watch ends up being more than just the sum of its parts. This is one of those times. This is really a great watch at a very affordable price. If you get a chance I highly recommend you check one out in person.

Mondaine Chronograph with Night Vision

A bold yet sleek statement, the Mondaine Official Swiss Railways Watch Sport II has the classic Mondaine award winning design with the highest technology Swiss Chronograph (stopwatch) movement and Tritium Night View Illumination. It is the perfect combination of style and functionality.

The Sport II has a 42 millimeter brushed stainless steel case highlighted with a black PVD fixed bezel that is decorated with six polished stainless steel screws. It is available in two dial choices, either black or white with opposite color hands and the signature red stopwatch sweep second hand. The continuous sweep second subdial and the 30 minute elapse time subdial also have red hands.

As you can see, the hands and dial have tritium illumination for perfect night illumination. In addition the watch features a large double window date display that is easy to read at a glance, yet adds to the classic design motif.

The classic simple and straightforward design of Mondaine Watches is considered a work of great modern art. Mondaine Watches are collected by museums throughout the world. For example, Mondaine is the official watch of the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art.

The simple design, the unmistakable easy-to-read face, distinctive hands and the famous red seconds hand have made the Mondaine collection successful the world over. In 1944, Hans Hilfiker, a Swiss Engineer and Designer and employee of the Federal Swiss Railways, created a clock, which has become known as the Official Swiss Railways Clock. It is amazing just how long this design has endured and now it appears to take a place in the eternal hall of fame along side other well known design icons such as the Coca-Cola bottle, the Mercedes star, the Toblerone packaging, or the design of the US dollar bill.

Traser P6600 Shadow

Well, Traser has finally entered the "Blackout" market with entry of the P6600 Shadow. Now, up until this point, Luminox has been running away with the "Blackout" segment of the market. In fact, the Original Blackout from Luminox has sold so well that there is now a whole collection of watches by Luminox that feature the "Blackout" treatment. And to top it off, several of these watches are the best selling Luminox watches ever. So, it only makes sense for Traser to answer back with a "Blackout" watch of their own. Enter the P6600 Shadow...

Based off of the P6600 Mil-G platform this is maybe the best Blackout watch to come along yet. Although Traser's Blackout has arrived a year later than Luminox and many other Swiss brands in Blackout Design, they lead the field in making their Blackout to meet and exceed the new, tougher, MIL-W-46374F Specifications. The Traser P6600 Shadow is the leader in Military Stealth Watches.

Traser cut no corners in the manufacture of these watches. The P6600 Shadow uses the latest dual case design that basically places the precision Swiss movement inside two cases for the ultimate in shock and water protection. The watch utilizes a K1 Grade Mineral Glass Crystal for improved strength and durability and a carbon fiber unidirectional elapse time bezels with a tritium Traser dot at the 60 minute mark. The new Traser P6600 Shadow also utilizes full tritium illumination on the dial of the watch. This is the watch to wear when your very safety depends on having the precise time at a glance.

All of this in an all new slicker Blacked-Out version. The combination of style, durability, military precision and quality parts make this one of the best watches available today. The price makes it one of the best buys out there today. Combining all of the strengths and affordable price makes this the first MUST HAVE watch of 2012.

The Luminox Recon, Point Man

Well, we are once again excited about a Luminox product. Surprising I know, but Luminox is just one of those products that once you try it, you have to have it. The Tritium illumination is the key, but the watches are also a nice quality and Swiss Made. Fortunately the company is also growing and that means we keep getting new styles. Below is one of the newest styles just released for 2011.

The Recon Series is the newest series available from Luminox and the first watch available is the 'Point Man'. This series is very different from most of the other Luminox watches available today. While the overall style and build are similar to the Colormark Series, the function and illumination are completely unique.

You see the 'Point Man' is a watch designed for the ground solider and out door adventurer. And it's built with features that are actually useful for those out and about. The first and most important unique feature is the Walking Tachometer. This feature is rarely found on any watch and allows you to judge exactly what speed you are walking. this is handy for real field situations where you need to determine how far something is, how far you have traveled and how long it will take to get where you are going. Combined with this feature is the sun-compass functionality and bezel for timing. The watch even has a countdown quadrant of the dial that can be used to time maneuvers. Very cool stuff.

Plus you also get a great looking watch once the sun goes down. Take a look at the night illumination (pictured below). Very stylish blue and orange tritium light the way and still allow the watch to be used for timing maneuvers at night. Not to mention that is also striking to the casual observer.

All in all, I am very excited about this watch. It is always nice to see someone do something different. For more information and to order online, please visit us at Time 4 Tritium.

Torgoen's Newest Series - Alarm, GMT

We are pleased to introduce the newest series of Torgoen Swiss Professional Pilot's Watches, the T30 Collection. The T30's are the first Alarm Watches ever offered by Torgoen Swiss. And they off a fully independent 24 hour Military Style Hand and outer dial for tracking ZULU Time or a 2nd Time Zone. But we like the T30's because we think they are, by far, the best looking watches in the entire Torgoen line!

The Dual Time Hand (marked by a "24" on the end of the hand) hand can be set independently of the primary watch. It keeps track of time on the 24 hour scale with markers around the outer dial. Most pilots will set this hand to Greenwich Mean Time (GMT), often also called ZULU Time and used by all pilots for logs and record keeping. Travelers might want to use it to keep track of a 2nd time zone. The watch is easy to read and features a big triple date window and a sweep second subdial.

The T30 has a 12 hour analog alarm feature. Like most alarm wristwatches, the alarm is not loud and might not awaken a sound sleeper. It is ideal for keeping track of appointments or timing intervals. And like all the best Alarm watches, it is extremely east to set and use.

This really is my favorite Torgoen model currently available. It has style, function, clean design and easy to use. What more could you want? If you are interested in purchasing one of these you can visit one of our online stores. There you can find more photos, pricing and the full specs on this series.
