1+ hour, 16+ min ago (974+ words) Part two of this gift guide covers two groups that are hard to shop for and worth getting right. The traveler, who lives in airports and time zones. And the women in your life, who have to deal with brands that think "shrink it and paint it pink" is a design plan. Watch lovers are the worst. They know exactly what they want, and most of the time it costs more than rent. That is a rough mix when the holidays show up and someone tells you they are "into watches now." For travelers, a good GMT watch beats a phone or smartwatch every time. You set it once, glance at it in any country, and see home time and local time without menus or apps. No charging, no software updates, just a small piece of hardware that keeps them…...

He spent fifteen years as an editor for Gizmodo, CrunchGear, and TechCrunch and has a deep background in hardware startups, 3D printing, and fintech. Bell & Ross has been slowly turning the BR 05 into its "casual" line, and the new $6,300 BR 05 Grey Mirror Steel ($5,800 on rubber strap) leans hard into that idea. This one is not about cockpit legibility. It is about steel, reflections, and a lot of wrist presence. In person, a mirror dial does odd things. Your wrist picks up the room, the ceiling, the person across from you. Angles change, hands catch the light, and sometimes you need to tilt the watch just to see the time instead of your own face. This is not a field watch you check in a rush. It is closer to a steel bracelet…...

5+ hour, 5+ min ago (304+ words) When a new watch brand appears, it's often defined by familiar stories: heritage, revival, archival blueprints rediscovered. zeruzzi is not one of those brands. Founded in Norway in 2023 by designer Daniel Serussi, zeruzzi arrives with a different premise " that watches can function as both instrument and art, not in theory but in form. Its debut piece, FAZE 1, makes that vision explicit. What distinguishes the zeruzzi FAZE 1 is its geometry " it's an object designed to sit at the intersection of utility and expression. For a brand built on expression rather than heritage, it was an unusually organic " and fitting " debut. Most watches ship in a box you'll never see again. FAZE 1's packaging is cast from aluminum into the same facial profile that defines the dial; the box is designed to be displayed. It completes the watch as a single artwork…...
