Hi there, and welcome to 12 & 60. Here you can find articles and reviews on all things wristwatch. I mean, that’s why you’re here right?
I started this site because I'm an ordinary guy with an inexplicable passion for watches, and I wanted to offer something that would help other people looking to find out more about what's out there in the world of horology. Like most of us, my budget is strictly in the "affordable" category, so most of my articles will focus on wristwatches in that range, both new and sometimes vintage.
So have a browse of the site and read a few articles, follow me on Instagram for some cool watch pics, and subscribe for updates on new pieces!

The Waldhoff Multimatic II – It’s Complicated…
In a previous review, I said that it can be quite tricky to design a minimalist watch. Well, the same is true for watches that are the exact opposite and which have a ton of features. It can obviously be very difficult to balance a lot of complications without making the dial too cluttered. But Waldhoff has attempted to do just that with their Multimatic II. It’s a dressy automatic watch that’s available in several colours. The sample I have here is the Emerald version, and it retails for $789.

The Best 5 Field Watches - Including The Watch Worn By The SAS!
Просмотров 79 тыс.2 года назад
If there's one thing a watch collector needs, it's a decent tool watch. Something that they can wear outdoors when hiking, or just doing manual labour. The obvious choice for such a watch is a classic field watch, after all, that’s exactly what they were designed for. So, I thought I’d put together a list of some of my favourite field watches currently on the market. Most field watches were ori...

The Omega Seamaster Diver 300M 007 Edition - James Bond's Best Watch Yet
Просмотров 22 тыс.2 года назад
Hands-on review of the Omega Seamaster Diver 300M 007 Edition 210.90.42.20.01.001, the watch worn by James Bond (Daniel Craig) In No Time To Die. With each new Bond film comes a new Omega strapped to 007’s wrist. For No Time To Die Omega released a titanium version of the Seamaster Diver 300m. Daniel Craig himself supposedly had input on the design, which was based on the idea of making a watch...
The Iota GMT Collection - Minimalism Done Right
Просмотров 4922 года назад
It’s a tricky thing to design a minimalist watch. And that’s because the fewer elements there are in a design, the harder it is to make them interesting and original. In fact, it’s more likely that a minimalist design will look cheap and boring. But I think that the watches I’m looking at today manage to pull it off rather well. They’re the GMT collection from Iota, a microbrand that combines B...
The Christopher Ward C65 Sandhurst Series 2 - A Ridiculously Good Watch!
Просмотров 34 тыс.2 года назад
When it comes to field watches, the devil is in the details. The design language of these military-inspired pieces tends to be very rigid, which leaves little room for variation when it comes to designing your own. Back in 2019, Christopher Ward launched their own field watch called the Sandhurst, as part of its military collection. Approved by the British Ministry of Defence, the C65 Sandhurst...
The Seiko Prospex SPB317J1 1968 Turtle Reinterpretation - The Quintessential Seiko Dive Watch
Просмотров 35 тыс.2 года назад
For the past couple of years, Seiko has been really focussed on reissuing some of its most iconic dive watches. Which is by no means a bad thing, because it gives us a chance to own some of their best designs with all the benefits of modern manufacturing techniques. The latest watch to be reissued, or reinterpreted as Seiko prefers to say, is their 6105-8000 “Turtle”. This was only the second d...
The Tudor Pelagos 39 - The Tudor Sub We’ve All Been Waiting For
Просмотров 29 тыс.2 года назад
For years now fans of Tudor have been hoping that the brand would make an updated version of their Snowflake Submariner, and I’ll be honest I didn’t think it would ever happen. But it’s exactly what we’ve got with the new Pelagos 39. The newest entry into the Pelagos range hits all the right notes, and as a result, it’s got Tudor’s fans well and truly excited. In this video, we provide a full i...
I Finally Found The Best G-Shock For Me! - The Casio G-Shock GW-5000U
Просмотров 178 тыс.2 года назад
I don’t think I really need to elaborate on the statement that if you need a real beater watch, then get a G-Shock. Since the first G-Shock was launched in 1983, the brand has become the go-to choice for anyone after a nearly indestructible watch. I’ve owned two G-Shocks over the past few years, one was a 5600 variant, and the other was a 5610, both with a negative display. Which is one of the ...
This is Hamilton’s Best Field Watch - The Hamilton Khaki Pilot Pioneer Mechanical
Просмотров 23 тыс.2 года назад
A little while ago I reviewed what is probably the most popular field watch on the market, the Hamilton Khaki Field Mechanical. Whilst it’s a great watch in many ways, it didn’t quite hit the spot for me, and that’s because, to be honest, I found it a bit dull. I know that’s kind of the point of a field watch, but I’m no soldier stuck in the Vietnamese jungle. I’m a watch geek who wants a field...

You can purchase the Voiture from Nezumi's website here: www.nezumistudios.com/nezumi-watches/voiture-vm1s/ One of the nicest experiences for a watch nerd is discovering a new brand, and recently I’ve had the pleasure to discover Nezumi. The Swedish brand has existed since 2011, and originally focussed on clothing before launching its first watch in 2015. With the brand having been producing wa...
The Avi-8 Hawker Hurricane Clowes Automatic - An Exceptionally Contemporary Pilot’s Watch
Просмотров 1,8 тыс.2 года назад
You can purchase the Clowes from Spinnaker's site here: avi-8.co.uk/pages/hurricane-clowes As I said in my recent review of the Laco Flieger Pro, the problem I have with pilot’s watches is that they all look alike. Well, Avi-8’s latest watch is looking to change that. It’s called the Hawker Hurricane Clowes Automatic, and as the name suggests it honours fighter ace Arthur Clowes. Clowes served ...
The Spinnaker Spence 300 - Is It The Thinnest Affordable Dive Watch?
Просмотров 7 тыс.2 года назад
One of the most important things to consider when buying a watch is wearability. It doesn’t matter how nice a watch looks, if it’s not comfortable to wear then we probably aren’t going to buy it. A watch’s thickness plays a big part in that comfort, which is why Spinnaker’s latest dive watch is its thinnest yet. The new model is called the Spence and it’s a mere 10.9mm thick, which makes it one...
