UBIQ Trek - Corewhite Review: The Field Watch of the Future
I learned about the Singaporean brand UBIQ, which was created by Drayson Phua, and not only did I end up falling in love with their watches, but I might just have the perfect field watch as a result. Could there be a magical, watchmaking ingredient in Singapore?

Earthen Company Summit Release: 3 New Colors of Ceramic!
As with the Black Ceramic and White Ceramic Summit MK2 models, these three new models come in the same perfectly sized 38mm case diameter, but this time it's in blue (Après-Bleu), Dark Green (Glade), and Beige Ceramic (Dune Devil). Except for the blue, each one features a complementary colored dial, such as the fully lumed mint green dial of the Glade, and the darker brown dial of the Dune Devil in contrast to the creamier beige case.
