Man’s dream has always been to fly. And when he learned to do so, he found that he could quickly reach foreign countries by flying.

Back in June of 2019, I reviewed the Oceaneva Deep Marine Explorer 1000M Pro Diver watch, a Swiss automatic dive watch with amazing build quality and value. Oceaneva is now introducing a quartz GMT version of this watch.

As you may or may not have heard about the recent kickstarter saga with the brand (Meccaniche Veneziane), here is my insights on the whole scenario judging from the facts and information gathered.

As many new watch brands tend to do, Alpha watch designs are primarily of famous watches from brands like Rolex and Omega. For this review I have their automatic GMT Pepsi model, a beautiful, generally well made rendition of what can best be described as a merger of a Rolex GMT and a Tudor Heritage Black Bay.

Wancher is a brand from Japan started by Taizo Okagaki in the early 1990’s. The company began offering writing instruments and recently added watches to their product lineup. For this review I have their Extreme GMT and Ranger II GMT watches, both of which I consider to be affordable, well made with strong attention to detail.
