I already have a Tsuyosa, which has a yellow dial. As a gold lover, I opted for this model which is reminiscent of the Daytona Jhon Mayer. 
This piece is magnificent, it is part of my collection and it sits proudly next to the Zenith, Rolex or Omega. 
This green sunray dial is just magnificent and I am in heaven when I wear it. 
The advantage with this model is that it is not widespread and therefore we never come across one which makes it an almost unique model. 
Tsuyosa my love

Gold is best of Tsuyosa

When Citizen releases this watch they are not at their best, the Tsuyosa comes to revive a market. The Tsuyosa is a marvel accessible to many and totally in the current trend. 
Unobtainable at launch with waiting times of 1 year for certain colors. 
I decided to take the model with Yellow dial which is a nugget, with its automatic movement it is already an iconic piece. 
I can only recommend it to a first-time buyer. 
It has everything going for it

The Queen of Tsuyosa

This watch has been in my collection for 20 years,
I wear it from time to time, the special feature is that it has a battery and is automatic, it is the ancestor of the sprint drive.
It is very pleasant on a daily basis.
It is a particularly endearing asymmetrical chronograph.
I also have the steel bracelet but less pleasant to wear.

Seiko Sportura Kinetic

This little Casio is not very impressive, it is a superb little quartz watch to wear every day. The budget to acquire it is very limited, even tiny. I really enjoy wearing it, just like my pieces from a great watchmaker. 
This Tiffany blue is fashionable and it is very beautiful on this dial.

A nice little Quartz

I initially wanted a Sub Mariner Date, the latest iteration of the house, then when I went to try this Sea Dweller I immediately fell under the spell of this magnificent diver. A very beautiful presence on the wrist, the red line, model initially released in 1999 for the 50th anniversary of the legendary Sea Dweller. 
I am not a diver, the only time my watch will see water is during a dishwashing session, no more, no less. It's a shame but who knows, one day it will really see the ocean. In the meantime, as soon as I iron it, it's a real pleasure. I recommend trying this watch, less common than its little sister and certainly less copied. 


4000ft~1220m Rolex Sea Dweller

I wanted a small watch with yellow gold because I love this material. I came across this model while doing a configuration on the Rolex website. 
So I visited my AD like many others who put me on the list. A week later I received a call to inform me that my watch was waiting for me at the store. 
I really love this watch that may seem Bling Bling and it is, but I like it like that. 
It's always a pleasure to wear it with my other pieces. I wear it in all circumstances, no matter what I'm wearing, because a watch is above all to be worn for oneself and not for others. 


Ma Blingblinguette

After trying the white dial and black dial models, I had the pleasure of putting this sublime piece on my wrist and I had a huge emotion. This watch is simply a joy, the El Primero caliber is fantastic, the details and the care given to this piece make it a reference watch. The green is superbly worked, the sub-counters also with the signature of the 3 Zenith colors. 
One of the beautiful pieces of my collection without a doubt. If I had to find a weak point it would be the metal bracelet which is not up to the standard of this manufacture. It's simple I replaced it with a rubber

The first one is Fantastic

This little Nomos has just arrived in my collection. The finishes are really well executed, this green dial called petrol is a success. What can I say about the finesse of this piece, only 8.3cm. 
Nomos is really a brand apart that combines the quality price ratio in a beautiful way. 
Remains to live with

Attention nugget

When you see this timepiece you understand that you are entering an extraordinary universe, a universe of poetry, a story that takes you far from the usual marketing of space, the sea or even the mountains climbed. 
Here everything is beautiful, the snow blue dial, the Zaratsu polishing, the Springdrive movement, it is a feast for the eyes and the head. This second hand that flies through the indexes at the speed of a galloping samurai without the slightest flinch. We understand that we are in Japanese poetry and magical art. 
A total success of a beauty characterized

The reflection of the sky in the snow

What a surprise it was to discover this unpretentious little Casio, so far from the Grand Seiko finishes, but for less than €60 it holds its own against many more expensive models. 
The Quartz movement is precise, the fluted bezel is very effective and this blue dial is very beautiful, it is also sunrayed. 
It is a watch that goes everywhere that you can happily wear a few n daily without fear.

A nice surprise

My first Rolex and I must admit that I am not disappointed, I hesitated with the Polar dial, but the hesitation was short when I was in the presence of this magnificent Explorer 2, this fixed bezel is a marvel, what can I say about the GMT function or rather a day/night marker, I do not know what it conquered but it certainly conquered me, I am crazy about it, I alternate quite often with my other trinkets, as soon as I open my pelicase, my heart beats wildly and this exploII winks at me "me, me, me, me" the 42mm diameter may seem large but it is not, a real daily pleasure. Little known and perhaps unloved, for my part I love it

Towards infinity, pure and simple

The watch of my 50th birthday, yes because if you don't have a Tudor at 50 it's not so bad. This Tudor diver combines class and sport, wearable in all circumstances, I particularly like its aluminum bezel, the details are quite crazy, I never get tired of wearing it and finding it again is always a pleasure. The size for my 16.5 wrist is just perfect, and this blue ahhhhh this blue is unique and so attractive. In short I love this watch, I put a special event in its history and between it and me it's for life.

The ocean is mine

Having owned a 2002 model that had signed my entry into the "superior" watch category, I resold this model by mistake and I bit my fingers for years. I learned of the release of a Sapphire model with applied logo, I could not pass it up, so I bought this model and I do not regret it, I find what made me love this model, with additional improvements, the coaxial movement, the Sapphire (sandwich) glasses and this look worthy of traveling to Mars, even if it has already been to the Moon (?). It is an iconic timepiece but not only that it is as sporty as it is dress Watch. a must have to wear in all circumstances?

The moon is not that far away

At first, nothing was predestined for this timepiece to enter my collection. Already having the Explorer 2 in my possession, I made the mistake of trying on this little Explorer, not so small, and it was love at first sight. It has a crazy charm, this plethora of details, this size, this presence, this brilliance made me fall in love with this little gem. My AD was able to find me a model in just 2 days. What a joy to wear it every day, it is discreet and so classy that I never tire of contemplating the 3-6-9 adorned with its lumibright. As you will have understood, I am crazy about it. It is very pleasant to wear even if the adjustment was a little too tight at first, the easylink has restored a little grace to my wrist. Far from the madness of Daytona and other GMT Masters, it really deserves to be an icon. I advise you to try it on to realize that you have a sleeping monster there

Conquering the summits

The Seiko brand, founded in 1881 by Kintaro Hattori in the Ginza district of Tokyo, has become one of the most influential and respected watch companies in the world. Since the opening of its first store, Seiko has continued a path of constant growth and innovation.
<h2 dir="ltr">History of the Seiko brand</h2>
The year 1924 marked the first watch produced under the Seiko brand. The company continued to develop new technologies, and in 1956 it released the first self-winding wristwatch made in Japan. The real game-changer came in 1969 with the introduction of the Seiko Astron, the world's first quartz watch. This innovation not only changed the direction of Seiko but also revolutionized the entire watch industry.
During the 1970s and 1980s, Seiko solidified its reputation as a technological leader with the development of solar-powered watches and the introduction of professional divers' watches. In 2005, Seiko presented the Spring Drive, a unique movement combining the strength of mechanical watchmaking and the precision of quartz.
In recent years, Seiko has continued to innovate by creating eco-friendly watches and supporting various environmental initiatives. The brand is known for its commitment to quality, precision and sophisticated design.
