We still use our original Montblanc Summit 2 that we bought and reviewed in 2018. It works fine and the battery problems have been solved. It remains one of the most beautiful Wear OS smartwatches on the market, and Montblanc has also launched some newer versions of it. But when we saw the Summit Lite... Continue Reading →
Tissot T-Touch Connect Solar
After the Alpina Alpiner X Alive failure, we were very hesitant to order another Swiss smartwatch with its own operating system. We checked for reviews, but only found people demonstrating the features without much commenting about the reliability or problems. The reviews in the app store were not encouraging, but they mostly seemed about missing... Continue Reading →
Casio G-Shock GBD-H1000 Smartwatch
If you are looking for a smartwatch and like the G-Shock look (big and bulky), then you probably already considered the Casio GBD-H1000. This watch is already available for some time, and there are already a ton of reviews available showing the features. We will not repeat that here. We will limit ourselves to telling...

Alpina Alpiner X Alive Smartwatch Review
Will it ever work? In short: if you want a simple basic fitness tracker that looks like a normal watch, then the Alpiner X Alive will do fine already. If you want anything more: be very patient because there are some problems but fixes are on the way they promise. We learned from the comments... Continue Reading →
Garmin Fenix 6X Pro Solar: king of the smartwatches
If you have read our other smartwatch reviews, you know we are big fans of Garmin sports watches. We like smartwatches that focus on different things than your smartphone already can do, and can do this without needing your phone. Google Wear and Apple smartwatches are just too limited for us. They just copy your... Continue Reading →
Louis Vuitton Tambour Horizon 2019
We waited a couple of months to publish a review because there is not much to say about it. In fact: everything we wrote about the Montblanc Summit 2 applies also for the LV Tambour Horizon: Perfect design and finishing. The watch looks like a luxury timepiece, and not as a gadget. Just like the... Continue Reading →
Casio Rangeman GPR-B1000 review
A lot has been shown about this watch on the internet: all of the specs and features are usually explained well, but few reviewers have actually tried to use the watch in real outdoor situations where a watch like this can save your life. We did, and found some strengths and weaknesses. First off all... Continue Reading →
Diesel On Full Guard 2.5 smartwatch review
Out of the box, the only good thing about this smartwatch was the looks. Just about everything else was a disaster. Battery life: a miserable 6 to 8 hours with minimal usage... On top of that, the watch restarted itself at least once per hour. And the crown also does not work good. We did... Continue Reading →
Montblanc Summit 2 review
The new Snapdragon chipset promises better battery life, but we experienced exactly the opposite. More about that later. We would first of all like to thank Montblanc for taking the risk to bring a smartwatch on the market. There is a need for luxury smartwatches because some people don't want to wear a gadget-looking watch... Continue Reading →
Garmin Fenix 5S Plus
With the Plus series, Garmin provided more or less the same functionality across all Fenix 5 devices. Only the 5x has the oxygen saturation sensor, that few people really need. So now for most people the choice can be based on looks and size. And that is exactly the reason we have chosen the Fenix... Continue Reading →
