Epos watches from Switzerland

Posted on 8 May 2025 at 8:34 PM

When you, as a true enthusiast, are looking for a new Swiss made watch, there are several renowned watch brands to choose from. Many lovers of luxury watches can appreciate it when there is a story behind a specific watch or watch brand. A watch brand with history often has a special appeal to the true enthusiast and/or collector of beautiful watches. In this article we would like to tell you more about a watch brand that can be called a true concept within the refined Swiss watchmaking, partly due to the rich history that the brand carries with it. We are talking about the leading watch brand Epos, which will certainly not be unknown to most lovers of Swiss watches.

Epos is a brand that is considered one of the best Swiss watch brands. The brand was founded in 1925 and focused on the production of mechanical and automatic watches at the time. This is considered the purest form of watch technology and is therefore preferred by many lovers of luxury watches. A mechanical watch works by means of manual winding and an automatic watch can function by only providing movement. When you wear an automatic watch on your wrist, the natural movements ensure that your watch is wound up again and again and thus continues to function. An automatic movement is therefore very advanced. Many lovers of automatic watches find it fascinating to see the movement at work and therefore choose a watch with a transparent bottom, with a view of the movement.

Epos is a brand with watches with such a beautiful transparent bottom, which will certainly appeal to the enthusiast. The collection of the Epos brand contains watches with a predominantly classic look, a traditional character and special details. In addition, there are also models of the brand available with a more sporty and robust look. Furthermore, there is a choice of designs with beautiful watch straps made of various high-quality materials. For example, there are models with watch straps made of beautiful leather, robust stainless steel and supple rubber. The heart of every watch from the Epos brand is formed by a high-end Swiss made movement from the well-known brands ETA and Sellita. With a Swiss made movement of this calibre in the base, you always know for sure that you can rely on your watch. When you choose a beautiful luxury watch from the Epos brand, you also choose the golden combination of quality, style, high-quality materials and an extremely reliable character.

In this article we would like to discuss two designs from the Epos brand, each with its own unique look. The first model we would like to tell you more about is the Epos Emotion 3390.152.20.16.25. This is a very nice example of a model with a classic look. This design is equipped with a beautiful black leather watch strap, which closes with a buckle. The dial of the watch is classic blue in color, completely in keeping with the traditional character of this design. The watch case of this model is made of stainless steel and has a thickness of 9 mm and a diameter of 41 mm. This size makes this design a subtle piece on the wrist. The base of this watch is equipped with a high-end Swiss made automatic movement from the ETA brand. This movement can be seen through the beautiful glass bottom with which this watch is equipped. Finally, this design is equipped with very strong sapphire glass, a date display and a second hand. This watch is waterproof up to 50 meters.

A nice example of an Epos watch with a more sporty and modern look is the Epos Sportive 3441.131.20.55.55 Diver. This robust watch is equipped with a black watch strap made of rubber, which closes with a folding clasp. This is a real diving watch with a very good water resistance of up to 500 meters. The watch case of this design is made of stainless steel and has a thickness of 15 mm and a diameter of 43 mm. The dial of the watch is also black in color and decorated with striking yellow and white accents. This model of Epos is equipped with a Swiss made automatic movement of the brand ETA. In addition, very strong sapphire glass has been used for this design. The watch also offers an impressive list of nice extras.

Watch brands come in all shapes and sizes. Swiss, French, German or Japanese. There is also a lot to choose from in terms of style and of course there are big differences in price. Have you ever heard of the Italian watch brand Locman? This brand produces very beautiful watches with a completely unique design. This combination makes Locman watches very interesting.

Locman watch

While Switzerland is known for its refined watchmaking and Germany for the production of reliable and solid products, Italy is the country where people stand out for their sense of style and class. In this article we would like to tell you more about a special watch brand, whose every design is the perfect fusion of style, high quality and technology. We are talking about the leading watch brand Locman. Locman is the most popular watch brand in Italy, which is located on the island of Elba. Locman is known for the extremely good price/quality ratio of its products. With a design from this brand you choose very high quality in combination with an attractive price.

The collection of the Locman brand consists mainly of sporty and modern designs. This includes a lively use of color, with which many of the brand's models are accentuated. For example, we see the use of color in the watch straps, but also as accents on the dial. In addition, there is a choice of designs with a lot of color, but also of models where the use of color is expressed in the smaller details. Locman watches are equipped with comfortable watch straps made of, for example, rubber or beautiful leather. For the watch cases, the brand uses special materials such as carbon fiber and titanium. Carbon fiber is a strong material, which also gives the watches a robust appearance. Titanium is also very strong, but also light in weight. This, combined with the brand's flexible watch straps, makes Locman watches very comfortable to wear.

The Locman collection offers a choice of models with different types of movements. For example, you can choose from models with a quartz movement, which work with the help of a battery. The advantage of these watches is that they are resistant to shocks and bumps. In addition, they are very punctual. It is also possible to purchase a Locman watch with an automatic movement. These watches function by means of movement and can make the heart of many a lover beat faster due to their advanced character.

In this article we would like to tell you more about two special designs from the Locman Montecristo series, starting with the Locman Montecristo Classic 0511BKBKFYL0GOK. This beautiful design is largely made in black, including the watch strap and the dial. This makes the yellow accents on the dial stand out even more. The watch strap of this model is made of rubber, which makes it comfortable to wear and also resistant to water. This watch strap closes with a buckle. The watch case of the watch is made of titanium and has a thickness of 13 mm and a diameter of 44 mm. Furthermore, this design is equipped with sapphire glass, which is very strong. This means that scratches are not easily visible and your watch will remain beautiful for a long time. The beating heart of this watch is formed by a high-quality automatic movement, which ensures a solid base. Finally, the watch is water resistant up to 100 meters and features a second hand, date display and luminous indicators.

The second Locman Montecristo model that we would like to tell you more about is the Locman Montecristo 44mm 0516A01S-00BKORSO.

We recently completely renewed our collection of Damasko watches. This appealing German watch brand is one of the top brands in the world. Damasko is not only known among watch enthusiasts, but is especially a symbol in the watch industry because the brand is progressive in terms of using high-quality materials, originality and beautiful designs. Damasko watches are one of our favorite watches. We have been selling Damasko watches in the Netherlands and far beyond for more than 15 years.

Damasko DK3X - DK30

If you are a true lover of beautiful watches, you naturally want to choose a high-quality design when purchasing a new one, which you can enjoy for a long time. There are watches on the market that may look nice, but which do not have a long life. These are the watches that you, as a true enthusiast, want to stay away from. A good and solid watch is made of high-quality materials and designed in such a way that it is durable and resistant to various harmful external influences. This way you can wear your watch with pride for a long time. However, you do not have to pay top dollar for these quality watches. There are several watch brands within the watch industry that offer extremely high-quality and solid watches at an attractive price. A good example of a German watch brand that falls into this category is the Damasko brand.

Damasko was founded by Konrad Damasko. From the start, he focused on the quality of the watch cases and had the ambition to make them indestructible. Where the brand initially purchased Swiss movements for the watches in the collection, they later decided more or less out of necessity to develop and produce their own movements. At Damasko, they see it as their philosophy to produce high-quality German watches that can rightly bear the 'made in Germany' label. In other words, solid and durable watches that can withstand the challenges of everyday life and also remain affordable. This has always been Konrad Damasko's vision. Today, the brand offers a very nice range of luxury watches, with an extremely solid character, stylish appearance and a high-end movement.

A beautiful example of a model from the collection of this appealing brand is the Damasko DC6X - DC66 Black. This high-end design is equipped with a beautiful robust leather watch strap in the color black. This watch strap is accented with white stitching and closes with a thorn closure. The watch case of the watch is made of stainless steel PVD and is therefore extremely solid. This watch case has a thickness of 14 mm and a diameter of 42 mm, matching the robust character of this watch. The watch case is also black in color, just like the dial. The accents on the dial are made in the color white, which provides a beautiful contrast. The watch is also equipped with very strong sapphire glass, which can literally withstand a knock. The watch is water resistant up to 100 meters and is basically equipped with an extremely high-quality automatic movement.

We are not there yet, because the Damasko DC6X - DC66 Black also offers many nice extras. For example, with this watch you have a date display, second hand and luminous indicators. In addition, this design also offers a stopwatch function, screw-down crown, rotating bezel and chronograph function. Finally, the watch is equipped with a rotating lunette and the triangular marking at twelve o'clock is supplemented with an extra bi-light that lights up at night. All in all, a very complete model of extremely high quality in a solid and stylish German jacket, which will appeal to many enthusiasts and collectors of unique designs and attractive luxury watches.

Another beautiful design from Damasko is the Damasko DK3X - DK30. This model has a completely different look than the aforementioned model. The watch combines a sporty character with elegant classic elements. The watch strap of the watch is made of beautiful brown leather and has stitching in a lighter shade of brown. This watch strap closes with a buckle. The hardened watch case of this model is made of stainless steel and has a fine pearl blasted surface. The watch case also has a thickness of 10 mm and a diameter of 39 mm. The dial of the watch is black in color and has white details. This design is also equipped with extremely strong sapphire glass. The Damasko DK3X - DK30 is waterproof up to 200 meters.

Benson Black Series II 8 Walnut Limited Edition watch winder

Posted on 13 April 2025 at 9:15 AM

Do you have multiple automatic watches and do you not yet own a watch winder? In this article, we would like to list all the advantages of a watch winder for you and also introduce you to a progressive brand in this field, which is certainly worth considering if you want to purchase a good watch winder.

Let us start by explaining what a watch winder is for. An automatic watch can only function when it gets the right movement. This happens when you wear the watch by only the natural movements of the wrist. At this moment, you do not have to worry about this at all. It is different when you do not wear the watch, at this moment this movement is missing and the watch can stop. Apart from the fact that this can cause inaccuracies in the time display, it is of course also frustrating when you have to reset your watch every time you have not worn it for a while. After all, most watches today not only show the time, but are also equipped with a date display or GMT function, for example. Of course, if you have to set all of this again and again, it becomes very annoying.

By purchasing a good watch winder, you can prevent this problem. You simply place your automatic watch (or watches) in the watch winder when you are not wearing it and set the correct program. The watch winder then ensures that the watch or watches are wound up. In addition, the movement that the watch winder provides also ensures that the oil in the watch is distributed correctly, which benefits the lifespan of your watch. The possibility of winding up your automatic watch when you are not wearing it is of course a very important reason to purchase a watch winder.

Benson Black Series II 8 Walnut Limited Edition watch winder

However, this watch accessory also offers even more advantages. For example, you can safely store your automatic watches in a quality watch winder. If you opt for a lockable model, you offer your automatic watches protection against harmful external influences. The true enthusiast will also want to be able to present their automatic watches in a stylish way. A watch winder with a matching appearance is the solution for this. Watchwinders come in all shapes, sizes and price ranges. It can be difficult to see the forest for the trees in this area. We are happy to help you on your way. A beautiful brand in watch accessories, originating from the Netherlands, is the brand Benson. Benson offers a beautiful and diverse collection of watchwinders, of which the Benson Black Series is a very popular series.
