Wolbrook Skindiver WT Professional - References, Prices and Owners' Reviews

Reissue of Neil Armstrong's watch from the time he was a test pilot, a very vintage skin diver style look with its transformed myiota mechanical caliber, it has all the arguments to make it attractive, American brand but made in France, it sits perfectly on the wrist, in short I absolutely do not regret my choice.

It was by chance during my wanderings on the net that I came across this reissue of this famous skindiver, known for having been worn at the time by a certain Neil Armstrong during his test flights for NASA: the brand's storytelling is well-honed and has managed to capture my attention. Beyond the pure marketing effect, I must admit that I very quickly appreciated the look of this watch: it is simple and extremely readable, I really like the typography of the indexes as well as the good charge of Super-Luminova that they carry: watch your eyes at night! The little bonus of this watch: the unidirectional rotating bezel that allows you to follow a 2nd time zone. Without being a great traveler, it is nice to have this function (which requires a little training to be tamed) to escape a little from your office :-). Although it is of modest design (reworked Miyota caliber), the quality is there, the finishes are excellent and the dimensions are perfect (40mm in diameter). I preferred to change the original Bund bracelet with the brand's Milanese mesh, very flexible and very comfortable to wear. In summary, a pretty little watch for every day that is a real favorite for me.
