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!

Really want to see a 38 (with 20mm lugs) that wears like a true 36-37
Seiko does not over claim that the movement is exactly like other watch brands. it is written + 25 seconds a day while the reality is only +- 4 to +-6 seconds a day. they want you to buy a grand seiko
Lug width ya tosser?
Enjoyed it
Just purchased mines this morning.
No date is no thanks
3:59 Not all digital watches suffer from viewing angle issues - pls look up STN displays - Super Twisted Neumetic displays found in GMW-B5000 watches and some Pro Trek ones - viewing angles are NOT an ISSUE for them…
As "awesome" as an explorer is, its unobtainable 😂 at least you can go in a tudor and go out with a ranger.
I have a GPW three hander with date. Titanium. Has a miyota automatic movement. 200 water resistance. I beat it to death and it’s still kicking. Under 500$. I’d recommend it to anyone
Your placement choice of the bezel appears to be deliberately placed out of line. Seiko's qc issues are so well known that this comes off as too much. Spin it around and give us the real positioning please. Anyone who has ever had a 120 click bezel can see its perfectly halfway between the hash marks and therefore 1 click off. Show us the real positioning at 12 so we can see how far off it is please otherwise your just making it look like there is no qc issue.

It's a year later so i hope you'll see this comment, what do toy think of the field watch from The Ridge (the walelt company) for the price point and specs.
Good review!! I just bought a mint one off marketplace today and am so pumped! I have wanted a Willard for a while now and am excited to finally have one!!
Il Laco perfetto è il Dortmund: - è da 45 mm; - a carica manuale; - non ha il datario; - la forma della cassa è diversa; - l'acciaio è sabbiato.
Il Laco perfetto è da 45 mm, è a carica manuale e non ha il datario.
Love it
Your crystal scratched because you didn't believe in the watch enough and prefer those pesky automatic mechanical things to it, not just because it's mineral. Totally deserved
Affordable ????…what graphic do you live in mate???
Affordable?????
Great Video!!! I love my Explorer!!! Had it for 6 months now after waiting 9 months before picking it up at my local AD☺️
Same module in 5610u, which I buyed for 100 euro and 5000 was 250 euro. Screw case means nothing to me, I don’t put it in water. Has softer rubber which is not worth 250-300 euro anyway. Rubber is rubber which won’t be same quality after few years so I buyed metal titanium set for 5610u and now is perfect.
Metal lugs not plastic. I own both 5000 and 5610.
It is a really nice watch, but rather small unfortunately. Feels good on wrist, but the screen is too small for my liking
Just stumbled on this video, and i enjoyed it. Trying to understand the watch space. Is the PRS 29A no longer for sale? Went to the website and it was sold out. Is there an update alternate that matches it?
You overlooked the annoying read border color on the 5610, that alone can be a deal breaker to force a guy into buying this higher end model. Or even falling back to an original 5600 core.
When people are saying #mamacoo is a better option,I very much agree!
Nice advertisement
I love watching watch videos but gee if I feel shallow and empty afterwards. So many superlatives and yet so meaningless and unimportant.
Get bullbars if youre scared of scatching crystal
The only letdown is the accuracy? Do we not know that Seiko misstates its accuracy? Why not test it?
Suppo Taalasmaa
Man i get this being better than the 5610 but it just doesn't feel justifiably 3× the price better. Maybe when it dips a bit ill check it out
love that they got rid of that stupid trident on the seconds hand, and the text-logo
Non due Rolex sull'Everest. Uno dei due indossava uno Smiths...
5k in Australia. For a 3 hand watch with a printed dial. What exactly are we getting for our money?
A Tudor.
@@theoriginaljohngalt2450 and you can see the value in that?
Pick any 5 g shock. There's your list
I'm now planning to get the GW-5000U, but it's going to take a while because: a. It's very expensive, cost as much as midrange phone from Samsung (the Galaxy A series). b. Limited release outside of Japan, available for online shops.
For those who have this watch: is the flat sapphire crystal lackluster? Any curvature there?
Your accent sounds horrible.
6R36 just won't cut it at 1500$ price point
So the only thing it's bad at is telling the time? Beautiful watch...
Rolex's best model IMHO. I absolutely love the 36mm and IMHO it could only be improved if they could slim the thickness down by a couple of mm...
The Benrus DTU 2A. Take it for a spin ..
I prefer the BB36 in every way over the Explorer especially the price! This will be a classic watch.
Best field watch is the F91 Casio 👌
Great review…I was window shopping yesterday and had zero intention of buying a watch…I saw the store had the Ranger in stock and had wanted to see one in person…did not like it on the bracelet but loved it on the green strap…I’d been looking for a field watch to balance out my Rolex thunderbird with fluted bezel and jubilee bracelet…this was the perfect solution…boring in the steel bracelet but looks awesome on diff straps…I was window shopping with no intention to buy, but now the Ranger sits on my nightstand and must say I’m quite happy…others might not like it, so it’s a good thing I bought it for my own enjoyment and not everyone else’s…
The Formex field would be my choice. Grade 2 titanium, fabric Velcro strap, decent water resistance.
Longines Spirit Titanium 40mm 👍🔥
Bought it in this version one year ago and the Ranger 8 months later, I love them both.
Vostok is a tool watch. This is vanity jewelry. And highway robbery.
