TREAT YOURSELF
The ROBOT Robotic One series marks a significant evolution for the Czech brand, blending Swiss horological precision with a bold, futuristic aesthetic. Designed by the renowned Swiss designer Marcus Eilinger, whose portfolio includes work for IWC and H. Moser & Cie., the Robotic One features a distinctive asymmetrical case inspired by a stylized robot head. At the heart of the Robotic One beats the ROBOT Boutique calibre R11242, a custom self-winding mechanical movement developed in partnership with La Joux-Perret. This automatic chronograph features a column wheel and vertical clutch, operating at a frequency of 4Hz with a robust 55-hour power reserve.
ROBOT is a unique microbrand based in Nové Město nad Metují, a small historic town located on the Metují River in the northeastern Czech Republic. ROBOT is proud of its Czech heritage, with every facet of its design — from its name down to its models — inspired by the legacy of Czech ingenuity. Each watch is produced in Nové Město nad Metují by a small team emphasizing quality over quantity. ROBOT utilizes Swiss movements as a reliable and high-quality base for its unique designs.
VALUE PICK
In their newest release, G-Shock takes the iconic DW-5600 silhouette, adds a splash of modern engineering, and redefines how this classic watch wears. Partnering with Fidlock, a German based manufacture of premium magnetic fasteners, G-SHOCK replaced the standard resin band with an all-new elastic cloth strap and magnetic fastener. With this new design, users can “set” the latch position once and easily secure the watch with one hand, an ideal feature for those who value ease of use or those with limited mobility.
This new line of watches within the 5600 series retains the classic size and proportions, with a case length of 48.9mm, a width of 42.8mm, and a thickness of 13.4mm, and weighs in at 53g, identical to the standard DW5600BB-1. With G-SHOCK’s 3525 module inside, the 5600MNC series offers access to an array of features such as a timer, stopwatch, and calendar, while running for approximately 5 years on the CR2016 battery cell.
NOT ANOTHER WATCH!
The Bey-Berk 4-Watch Wood Storage Case is a refined organizational solution designed to display and protect a focused collection of timepieces. Constructed with a solid wood body and finished in a smooth matte coat, this case features a hinged lid with a large glass see-through top for a full view of your collection without opening the box. The interior is entirely lined with soft velour, providing a cushioned environment that prevents metal-on-metal contact and helps to protect each watch from scratches and dust when not in use.
Designed to accommodate the modern collector, each of the four individual slots is generously proportioned to fit watches with dial sizes up to 50mm. With a compact 11.25-inch footprint and removable plush pillows, this storage case serves as a dependable and stylish “home base” for your watch collection. Whether you’re looking for your first watch box, additional storage space, or even a gift for the budding watch enthusiast you know, the Bey-Berk watch box might just be the perfect solution.
UPGRADE YOUR EDC
Multi-tools are one of those EDC items that seem to inspire very strong feelings: you either love them or wouldn’t be caught with one. That said, a well-built multi-tool can not only replace several other tools, but also be used in combination to increase your capabilities when the need arises. Enter the Gerber Multi-plier 600 (MP-600), a plier-based multi-tool with a patented one-handed opening method. Built in the US with global parts, the MP-600 features 14 unique tools, including a replaceable carbide cutter, blunt-nose pliers, straight and serrated edge blades, and a ruler. Each of the 14 tools locks securely when opened, preventing accidental closure while in use.
Included with the MP-600 is a ballistic nylon sheath that can be worn on your belt, keeping the tool secure yet in reach, and a T8 torx wrench to re-index or replace the carbide cutting blades once they dull. Backed by the “Gerber Guarantee”, the MP-600 is covered under a limited lifetime warranty. If you’re looking for an “all-in-one” solution or something to supplement the tools of your EDC, look no further than the MP-600.
DEAL OF THE WEEK
Last year, the Bulova Snorkel took the industry by storm and was a fan favorite all summer long, for good reason. Housed in a hybrid-ceramic case, the lightweight Snorkel features a Miyota 2115 quartz movement, unidirectional bezel, date complication, and 100 meters of water resistance. While the Snorkel comes in a color-matched, quick-release rubber strap, its 20mm lug width allows you to swap straps to your heart’s desire. Inspired by the Bulova Oceanographer, the snorkel pays homage to its heritage while incorporating bold and playful color schemes perfect for spring and summer.
