Welcome to webWatchWorld.com, one person's take on the wonderful world of watch collecting and enjoyment! This website provides information about wrist watches and other horological curiosities along with tips on watch repair, maintenance and more.
The goal of webWatchWorld.com is to provide useful information to watch collectors of all types in a clear and easy-to-understand style. The focus is on watches that offer excellent value for the money -- which does not necessarily mean they will be inexpensive. I like all types of watches but concentrate mostly on mechanical watches that are either manual or automatic winding, but any watch is an interesting watch in my opinion!
Your opinions, tips, tricks and reviews are welcome! Send your comments to
The
DiveSystem Group in Italy has made a limited edition run of 1,000
meter rated dive watches to commemorate an Italian Navy midget
submarine attack during World War II.
The G.A.3 is a nice combination of style and function.
Read all about it in my DSW G.A.3 Dive Watch Review.
A
lesser-known watchmaker from Germany and a modified and adjusted
Selitta movement make for a great-looking and high-quality
wristwatch.
The 29er is the textbook definition of the "sporty" watch that works for dress or casual wear.

An
interesting and very inexpensive wristwatch that has a few problems,
proving that cheaper isn't necessarily better.
If only...Alpha had spent a bit more on finishing, it might have been a contender.

A
beautifully made wristwatch with plenty of style and value, the
Vostok 1967 Amphibia
is Vostok manufacture at its best.
Originally made in a limited edition series to commemorate 40 years of Amphibia production, the 1967 Amphibia is again readily available.
Even though the price has risen over the years, it's still a bargain in my book!
Observations
and comments on three very different
Casio G-Shocks and a Casio
Waveceptor.
With millions of happy customers of all types, Casio is one of the world's leading watch manufacturers.
They're different, they're fun, they're ubiquitous and they've created a huge fan base with dozens of different colorful collectibles!
Just
Added! A new video illustrating the procedure for replacing the
bezel and insert on a Vostok Amphibia.
The article describes a Vostok Amphibia bezel replacement and the video illustrates the procedure using a brand-new Vostok Amphibia "Sailboat" wristwatch with the Ministry case.
Bonus: The video also discusses how to remove the original bracelet and replace it with a new strap.
Stolas
is a new American manufacturer and the Harbormaster collection is
their first offering.
The lineup currently consists of three watches with sailing themes; each watch is named for a different type of sail.
The wristwatches have dive watch specifications with styling cues not often found on traditional types.
