This feature was inspired by one of my users who owns more than 60 Hamilton watches and uses Watch Case to manage his collection for quite some time now. While in my opinion, every watch is unique, sometimes it might be easier and faster if you could re-use the fields structure and some of the… Continue reading Watch Case Templates

Raketa Copernicus
The more I learn about watches, the more I realize that inspiration to innovate or to create something esthetically different can come from anywhere. Below is a gallery of a Raketa Copernicus from the 80s I purchased in (supposedly) NOS condition a few months ago. I don’t think that the seconds hand is original and… Continue reading Raketa Copernicus
Seiko SNK369K1
This is not the most special or expensive watch in my collection, but I wear it every day and it never failed me. Simple and clean dial, rather small case, automatic movement and well.. that’s pretty much it. I understand that this particular style might not be exactly what you would like to wear daily… Continue reading Seiko SNK369K1
Wars from Błonie
For many years, horology was considered one of the most precise and difficult branches of engineering.

Dressy Seiko 5 Actus
A few weeks ago I was able to find an old Seiko 5 Actus from May 1976. In general, buying watches on eBay can be tricky and I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone looking for their first watch or just starting with their new collection. However, if you’re patient and know what to look for,… Continue reading Dressy Seiko 5 Actus

That will help finding it while searching through your collection list on the left.

Watch Case- what’s next?
I’ve been thinking about what comes next for the app. The May (2019.5) release was really big and time consuming. It opened new possibilities for a few extra features and improvements. Also, the recent WWDC and announcements of Dark Theme Mode will definitely affect my work. In June my focus is to improve on the… Continue reading Watch Case- what’s next?
Watch Case- May update
The next version of the app will be number 2019.5 but think of it as a 2.0 with lots of new features, refreshed UI, improved stability (fingers crossed) and with a new price (Free!). It now works on iPhones and iPads and all data you enter will be saved across all of your devices. The… Continue reading Watch Case- May update
