It’s a truly beautiful watch – thanks for the opportunity to win it!
I really like the MKII watch, especial the blue lume is fantastic!
In addition to that the watch is not to high and not to big to overshaddow a small wrist.
Wow! The watch is spectacular and as always great review.
Whether or not you like “homage” watches, anyone can appreciate a finely crafted precision machine. That’s why I love watches!
That is one great looking watch!
Just bought a real Bond NATO, it will match perfectly 🙂
What classic looking homage!
Oooh a chance to win MKII watch, niiiccccce *said in a south park voice*.
Great review and thanks for the opportunity to win one!
Great looking watch!
You neglected to link the full terms and conditions!
Pick me!
Nice watch. Would like to see it side by side with a Steinhart for comparison.
My favourite blog, hands down. Would love one of these watches!
Classy looking watch and a great contest!
Nice review and nice watch!
Would love to win this watch.
That’s a beauty!
A Really nice watch. Liking this site alot, good information about brands ive never heard of 🙂

WOW! would love to win that one
Great looking watch! Love the site as well, great to see it growing!
Congratulations to MKII for producing another incredible watch and to Worn&Wound for being so generous, again!
Warmest regards to all fellow watch lovers,

I would love to own this MKII.
Best sub homage out!
Looks amazing! I hope I win it!
Thanks for the giveaway! That is one awesome watch!
As always a very cool video of a very cool watch. Keep finding these gems and bringing them to our attention.
Need it!
Love this homage
I love the craftsmanship that is displayed on this watch. I think MKII has done a great job of balancing the proportions on this piece.
Homage or not – I don’t care. This watch is great! 🙂
Thank You for this giveaway.
A truly beautiful timepiece.
I had never heard of MKII up until I met a guy a year ago who said he stopped being interested in other watches, now he always wore his MKII on a mesh and never deviated. He cancelled his accounts at WUS and other places, but he did convince me to start reading Worn and Wound, because that was one thing he still did. Thanks for a great blog and “hi to Micke”, since you probably read this, this might be my chance of selling my current collection without ever looking back.
Super quality version of this classic watch model. Would love to own one and wear it with pride.
Wow this is great !! I would love to win it
What a beauty! Especially on the nato; wow!
Giving away an incredible craft timepiece!? Yes and Please.
thrilled for the chance to win, thanks w&w!
Thanks for the review and the chance to win!
I’m in…thanks!
Nice looking watch, great review, thanks
Fine…I’ll take it.
Nice watch, thanks for the opportunity.
Great looking watch! Great site!
What a beautiful watch. Thank you for the review and the giveaway.
Keep up with the great content. It’s great to see that you can have giveaways like these.
Nice timepiece, keep up the great work.
A great watch
A great gift
Thank You
…Always look at the bright side of life…
Beautiful watch!
Awesome watch. This would be great to win.
Great looking sub watch.
Hope this awesome watch can be my first Submariner homage!
Another masterpiece homage by MKII. Great build and quality!! Would like to own one 🙂
Great homage, I would love to win one.
Best Sub homage I’ve seen for a while…
Nice timepiece – may the luck be with me! 😉
MKII for the win! <3
Great watch. You guys consistently hit the mark with the watches you select to review.
Wow, another great review. Its amazing how many awesome giveaways you guys do! keep up the good work!
I love the obtainable watches that are always reviewed here. The fact that some are given away is just a plus. Any chance of bringing a lady in from time to time for women’s watches?
I have been wanting to add a new sub to the collection, hopefully this is my lucky day.
I was going to order this watch, but I’ll just take it here instead :0)
Classy looking watch. Loving the reviews and videos you put out!
Wow. What a beauty. Keep up the great reviews,and I love my Nisolo chukka boots by the way =).
Cheers!
Awesome site guys, have been following for a while! Great watch too 😉
I hope I will be lucky this time! Great website!
Amazing giveaway, this is definitely one of the best sub homages I’ve seen (the lack of a crown guard really makes it stand out). By the way, you forgot to add the link to the terms and conditions.
Great Site!
Cheers to you guys for running such a great website and Instagram feed. I’ve already learned so much from the site and have made a few purchases based on your reviews and articles! Keep up the fantastic work!
A magnificent piece! In this day and age, I am much more drawn to the classic style diver watches than I am to the monstrous and overly adorned watches that seem to be prevalent in today’s fashion. Kudos to MKII in paying homage to one of the most classic timepieces of all time, while still retaining their own unique stamp and staying true to their product line.
The name alone makes this watch desirable. Always wanted to go to Nassau!
Very classy W&W, and the watch is nice too!
I’d love to get my hands on the Nassau, not only because it is a great homage watch, but also because there’s a wait list for it.
The proportions of this watch are perfect.
Excellent looking watch! Would love to own one.
I hope I will be lucky this time! Great website!
Nice review. How does it compare to the Raven that you reviewed a few months back?
Very cool
Excellent execution and beautiful.
Awesome watch… true classic styling combined with excellent quality… surprisingly hard to find these days.
Thanks for the review and the giveaway!
Nice looking homage. It’s really great to get a chance to own a watch that’s actually assembled in North America instead of in Europe or China. Thanks!!!
Here’s hoping!
Really nice and I would be a fool not to leave a comment 😉
-Jesper
Ended up finding w&w after a search for a review of the Seiko 803. The reviews and photography are excellent. Thanks for offering up the giveaway and keep up the good work!
Yes please!
Count me in! These guys are right nearby.
Many thanks for this competition. Mk II have always been on the list to get!
Great looking homage!
Nice watch. Hope I will join my collection, I have no american watch 🙂
Awesome homage. Who wants a mustache ride?
I vant one! I vant one!
That is a beautiful watch, and will look especially nice on my wrist
pick me pick me pick me
i want it 🙂
Shiny, silver and like a submariner
Hope I can win it, a real beauty of a watch! 🙂
I love w&w reviews and the watch giveaways are just a great bonus. This watch is a real beauty and it’s nice that it’s now manufactured here in the USA.
Great looking watch!
What an awesome watch!! Its a shame they stopped selling parts for people to mod their watches. Exciting giveaway, thanks for the opportunity.
well made dive watch from a striving entrepreneurship
bravo, Bill!
Is this competition open to non US residents? Good looking watch and would look awesome on a NATO. Love the site too. Opened my eyes to a lot of smaller brands making nice pieces at competitive prices. Takes the snobbery out of watch collecting/lusting/general geekery. Bravo.
What a beauty……it would be an honor to own one!!!
Beautiful watch–it would make a great first “real” watch for me. Thanks!
Nice watch, and an excellent review.
MKII does some really great work. The Nassau is a prime example.
Beautiful tool watch, would look great on my wrist =).
W&W keep up the great reviews!
let’s do this. preorders seem like they won’t reopen for another few months, so this is a much better alternative to obtain one! 🙂
Thanks for another great review, and another great giveaway!
Awesome giveaway!
What a beaut. Give me that.
Gorgeous watch!
Great looking watch would look even better on My Wrist!
It reminds me of the latest Tudor models, I love it!
Stunning watch, thanks for the review and thanks to MKII
🙂
My Steinhart OVM is lonely.
Great looking watch.
Your watches are superb and I’m certain this MKII would look good going through flight school, and subsequently flying Army Medevac Missions with me!
Gorgeous watch! Excellent website! It’s nice to see other enthusiasts who share my passion for wristwatches. Thanks!!
Um, yes, please. Great watch to win.
Great reviews here at Worn & Wound. Made me purchase my first Christopher Ward watch. Always coming back to see what’s new.
Very nice watch! I’m choosing now between them, steinhart and chward
This watch looks great, but it’d look even better on my left wrist!
I know this might seem lame to do this in this article, but I just wanted to let you guys know that I love the site and I really do think it’s the best watch site available (not even just in the terms of “actually affordable” watch sites).
Thanks for the review, the Nassau is a beautiful watch.
Fantastic watch. Thanks for the accompanying giveaway.
That’s a great watch, and I’d really love to have it!
Very nice watch!
Great looking watch – many thanks to MKII and W&W for the great giveaway!
Great watch. Like to get your thoughts on how it compares to the Tudor Black Bay. Great contest and hope to win!
Sick watch! Would be a great add to the collection.
With this watch I will always be on time for dinner, and it looks amazing!
Great looking watch and I’d love to win. Thanks worn&wound and MKII for the opportunity to own such a great timepiece.
The last competition I won was a Michael Jackson dance contest. I was 5. Lovely watch!
Thanks for the contest. Good luck to everyone.
Read the review and it looks like this is a nice one.
What a beautiful watch!
Great looking watch
Great giveaway from an great watch site!
Great review, guys.
Thank you for the opportunity of winning this! It would be a great addition to anyone’s watch collection, especially mine. My MKii Vantage is a fabulous watch; it is one of my favorites.
Nice watch to giveaway.
Very nice homage. With my new found obsession for mechanical (real) watches, this would be a totally sweet start to my collection. Thanks for the opportunity!
I’ve always loved MKII. This is no exception. Great watch and great review!
You did an excelent review on a great watch, hope I win it, thanks
awesome! thank you for another great giveaway
: ). Thanks for the opportunity. Nice watch
solid looking watch. hope i win.
Still need to add a diver to my collection. Make it happen!
Me please!
Great review, w&w has been the cause of my two lastest purchases.
Thanks for the review!
Another great review and giveaway. Thanks w&w!
Great Homage. Hope to get my hands on one of these eventually.
Just what I need, a Submariner homage. Don’t have one yet and this will do nicely. Thanks for the opportunity.
A Truely Honest Reveiws Site.
Well done, keep up the good job!
Worn, Wound & Win!

Sorry, Double entry due to connection error!
I would love a sub to add to my collection!
Great piece!!!!
I love seeing American made Subs in production!
Lovely!
Beautiful watch! Great site! Hope to be the lucky guy..!
I’m in!
this would be a nice addition to my watch family!
Awesome looking timepiece! Never had a diver before and to bad this brand isn’t that known where i live.
Pick a frenchy !
Pick me!
Not at the age to be earning enough to afford these suave little ones yet. Love wornandwound!
Amazing giveaway, I have a feeling this one might be the most popular one in a while! That MKII Nassau is awesome!
Great looking watch!
Just wanted to say how much I appreciate your site. I think you guys write the highest quality reviews of any watch site, and it’s nice that you focus on good values (plenty of sites focus on very expensive watches). Your site led me to discover the Christopher Ward C60 Trident GMT, which I received a few days ago and I am loving. How about you add a classic diver to my collection? 🙂
Beautiful watch!
Excellent watch and thanks W&W for such an awesome opportunity.
Very cool watch. Nice to see another high quality Sub homage hit the market. Hope I win!!
That’s the watch I would really love to own.
Nice
dear wornandwound,
please help my lonely wrist find a new friend. if you could only see the joy and excitement my wrist expressed upon seeing this fine time piece. it would bring tears to your eyes… and wrist. the pride that would be exuded every day wearing this distinguished watch is beyond description. please choose me as the first owner of this MKII NASSAU!
your loyal follower,
rv
Loved the review of this watch, especially finding out that they are based here in Pennsylvania. Thanks for the opportunity.
Fantastic looking homage watch. I’ve been looking for a good quality diver styled watch for some time now, this looks perfect.
Classic styling. What’s not to love. Hope I win.
Thanks for the giveaway, guys! I love Worn & Wound–you guys do my favorite timepiece reviews, hitting all the right points plus beautiful photography.
I would love to own an MKII… my only diver watch is an Orient Mako (yellow dial, which I generally wear in the summer on a nato band) and I have nothing bad to say about it, but there is just something about the classic diver watch on a steel bracelet that speaks “dry martini and black tie” to me.
Cheers!
Nice to see MKII making this watch their own by implementing such a high level of build and finishing quality, without all the overhead of the middlemen
My wrist feels naked without this watch!
Whenever, Whatever watches!
Look no farther Worn & Wound.
Beautiful watch. Wanted one of these for awhile now!
Great watch and great review, many thanks! Your review has really made me consider this watch as you speak so highly of the build quality of this watch, much more than any other watches you have reviewed! Keep up the good work!
Definitely a worthy homage watch. I have to admit, I wouldn’t have even thought of the difference between homage/replica/counterfeit without reading your other article a few days ago.
Best of luck to everyone!
Thanks for the chance at winning this watch!
Mk2 is just too damn sexyyyy
I like that lume.
maybe luck will finally be on my side… amazing watch
Stunning. Want. Please!
Another quality MKII watch!
They do the Homage thing rather well here. It’s not a COMPLETE rip off, but you can tell where their inspiration came from.
Keep up the good work!
I would be really excited to win this watch. It would make a lovely addition to my collection.
this is an amazing homage to the vintage Submariner. I totally want one!
Awesome watch, who ever ends up with it, is very lucky.
Great giveaway!
The finishing on MKII watches is impressive, great looking watch.
I want that.
Leave it to Bill to take sub homages to a whole other level. Truly perfect.
Thanks for the giveaway, love you guys and what you do!
Thanks for the opportunity to win this beautiful watch. Good luck to all! Keep up the good work W&W.
Great looking time keeper
i want
Great looking piece. Bill certainly has an attention to detail.
A well done submariner homage. I like it!
That is a great watch- thanks for the chance to win something that well regarded- It’d be perfect on my wrist…
Woah. That’s quite the list of commenters! I’ll add my two cents in! That one looks quite good on the NATO you posted on Instagram!
Love the retro-flirt with the red bezel-triangle.
Would love to see a few of these make it to Norway so I can see and feel the much praised build quality in the flesh 🙂
Great blog and exciting give away! I’ve heard good things about the MKIIs 🙂
As a huge James Bond fan, I love this beautiful homage to the early Submariner!
Thanks to your great review I now own an AARK Watch! Keep it up!!
Great looking watch. Thanks for the chance!
This is easily one of the best Sub homage ever made. I love the Nassau!
Beautiful watch! Love this site; I’m hooked!
There are few watches that I want more than this one! Thanks so much for all the reviews! I don’t buy watches without seeing if you reviewed it or not!
Thanks for the opportunity!
Winning this would make my sons graduation. Beautiful watch!
Not a single piece of me to even consider buying the Nassau before, out of nowhere, the writer just stroke a piece of write ups and totally changed my perception towards the Nassau. Thumbs up and kudos to the ‘Mr Writer’!Great Photos too!
I am really digging this watch. I rather invest is MKII over a Tudor now.
First I was “meh” then it become “whoa i want one!” So won’t you be nice and pick me?
great watch! and thank you for your website I love it
Thoroughly enjoy your website an your reviews as well as other insights! This is a beautiful watch that does the classic design just right! Thanks for the awesome reviews you’ve done thus far!
Great review, the Nassau is a beauty!
This is the tastiest giveaway you’ve ever had
Hope its me!
This would complete the James Bond from Dr. No look I’ve been working on.
Very nice watch. I liked the guilded one too, but this one is already a classic.
I’ll represent this proudly all over nyc!
oh man, i really NEED one of these.
always checking back your website for the awesome watches you feature, especially those value for money. learn alot from it.
But still, never been able to afford one.
hope will be the owner of one of these great mechanic time pieces soon.
Thank you for all the great reviews. Great to have a place where it’s not only about the expensive brands that everybody knows.
That’s a really great looking homage, I would love to have one of my own.
Best giveaway ever! Excellent watches coming from MKII
Such a nice watch for a giveaway. Would love to add it to the collection.
Very cool that MKII is offering this for a giveaway!!
Love the reivews and the site as a whole – keep up the good work!
Love your site. Thanks for the chance to win this great watch.
need one.
would love to win this watch, keep up the great site!
Great looking watch!
Bill Yao makes great watches. It would be an honor to wear one of his creations.
Loved the review on this piece, looking forward to the next review!
I’d love to add it to my humble collection. Also, love the site.
I agree – I have been kicking myself for missing the opportunity to purchase one of these watches before. The Nassau sounds amazing, and it would be a privilege to wear. Thank you for the opportunity to do so.
That watch is sweet. I have been looking for a kingston for a long time…
-Joe
If there was ever a giveaway that I wanted to win, it would be this one!
This would be an awesome watch to win! Thanks for the opp!
Great looking watch!
Great review, and a watch that is an instant classic!
Great review, great looking watch!
Kudos to Bill Yao (owner of MKII) for trying lots of new things here. The new business model took a lot of guts and Bill took a lot of flak from people due to uncertainty. In the end, he figured out a cool new business model and we have access to what some people argue is a homage (let’s not get into that today) but is really a masterful timepiece. If you haven’t had the chance to see one (or it’s Kingston LE cousin), beg borrow or steal some time with one.
MKII’s attention to detail would make the folks at Rolex cry. It’s like the Ferrari 365 that was over-restored far beyond the quality that the workers at Maranello ever imagined. It may lose points at Pebble Beach, but it is an absolute stunner.
If you don’t win this watch, buy one…
Extremely handsome watch which, I assure you, would be going to an excellent home. (fingers crossed!)
In it to win it. ::drool::
Looks like a really nice watch. Thank you for the review and give away! Enjoying your site!
I love it. Gorgeous finishing, perfect proportions, understated… Bill Yao is the man.
Oh, how I would love to have this 🙂
yes please
Nice watch, great website!
Haha, I called it in the original thread! I’ll take two please!
What a great looking timepiece, would be a wonderful watch to add to my collection.
Keep up the great reviews guys.
Really awesome homage! If I don’t have luck to win it, I’m definitely going to buy it sometime.
Sweet…count me in!
Great watch and giveaway.
Stunning watch. I wish they were still available for sale. Will have to wait for a preowned one to come on the market.
Cheerful contest entry.
Very nice! I decided I had to have one of these right around the time the put ordering on hold. Vexing! 🙂
I thought the Kingston was a beautiful watch, but I like the look of this one even better!
Well done, Bill Yao, and thanks for the opportunity, the chance to win this watch!
Beautiful watch 🙂
Thanks for the opportunity to win a Nassau.
Love the site, but spending way too much time here looking for a new watch! Here’s to hoping I win and the decision is made for me, would love the mkII. Thanks!
I always like stopping here at the end of the day to see what’s hot. Thanks for the opportunity and generosity.
Awesome WORN&WOUND! Thank for giveaway such a well crafted watch, love the matte black dial & red triangle on top. It is all about “details”.
Today is my birthday, just saying!
Great review as always W&W!
Awesome review! Very nice watch!!!
Great watch, pity about the price…but if I win it them I guess the “price” would be perfect hehe
Very nice review! Now I want a Nassau! (and it’s sold out!)
Great review. Awesome watch.
I have for a long time seen the great work of Bill, and it would be wonderfull to have on of his watches on my wrist!
Looks great, these are almost impossible to find.
I have been a fan of Bill Yao’s work for a long time. It’s a shame I was never able to get a modded seiko diver from him before he started manufacturing his own independent pieces. Regardless I love the opportunity to own such a fine time piece. Bill Yao’s work is truly second to none, and something I hope to aspire to one day when I start my own watch company. Bill is truly an inspiration.
Worn and Wound, you always and continue to have wonderful watch reviews. You are my first stop for up and coming news in the watch world. I really appreciate all you guys do! Thanks for such a great review once again and keep up the good work!
Love the Mk II watches, love the sub – this homage watch rocks!
Please send this baby to Sweden 🙂 (me!)
Great review as usual. Beautiful watch to go along with my MKII LRRP!
Must have this watch but can’t afford it. It has more character than the sub in my opinion.
It’s a very beautiful watch, thanks to Bill for a fantastic work!
This would save me from buying a new watch.
THINK OF THE CHILDREN
Beautiful watch. Thanks to Worn and Wound and to Bill for provding the opportunity to us to maybe win one!
Fantastic watch and review. Thanks!
thanks for the giveaway!
Great looking watch; solid design.
Beautiful watch!
This would be great to wear!
Thanks for the review!
The watch looks great! Hope I win!
ps: It would be a nice tweak to the site to have the comment dialogue box at the top rather than the bottom. That way you can still see the page content when commenting! Love the site, keep the good stuff coming!
Definitely one of the best sub homage ever
One word: GRAIL!
Love the classic sub homage look.
Awesome watch! 🙂
This is truly a beautiful watch. For them to produce such a high quality watch with this level of craftsmanship, it is almost unreal that they only charge you under $900.
OMG!!!! i need to represent this in canada, on my wrist!
What a watch, looks amazing.
Great looking watch! The blue lume is cool. Hope I win!
Funny how these things work — in my search for a great watch, I found a great watch website. Thanks, guys!
Truly stunning, and memorable piece!
I hope I win. It is a very nice watch!
Really beautifal Watch! Great review
I would love to win a MKII Timepiece!
(fingers crossed)
What I always appreciate about W&W reviews is that they are always very detailed, meticulous, and masterfully executed. Much like the fine watches I regularly come here to read about. This watch and your fine review of it are just another such example. Would I like to own the MKII? In a heartbeat !!
Love the watch and the brand. Bill puts a lot of work into these and it shows. I hope he will do a date model using this case.
wow! what a great giveaway – thanks w&w!
wow! what a great giveaway – thanks w&w!
Dreaming of this watch for a long time. MKII rules!!!
Excellent watch.
Good luck 4 all!
I really appreciated the honesty of the review, and the details about why this is a well made watch. Thanks for the review and opportunity to win this watch!
I like the homage style, but looking like a Rolex. Makes feel like you should get a Rolex, but for the price you can’t complain.
It really brings back the classic 50’s sub with modern usability – fingers crossed
Great reviews! MKII Nassau is a really beautiful watch!
Thanks for the opportunity! WOW, incredible giveaway!
Cheers!
Wit
Beautiful looking watch. Learned about the MKII collection on WatchUSeek forums and have always admired the craftsmanship behind them. Unfortunately Ive never had the chance to own one myself due to my budget on watches. Would make a nice addition to my humble collection.
Yes pls.
Awesome watch, great giveaway.
Thank you!
Cracking watch, cracking review. If you’re going to make an homage, than one which is so well executed is to be applauded.
Very nice timepiece!
I don’t want this, I NEED this timepiece. Love all the MKII’s!!
Such a nice submariner ! I really love the details on this one
What a beautiful watch. I’ve been admiring MKII since finding them on WUS.
MKII makes the highest quality Rolex tributes around, and they probably will remain the best for a long time; if not forever. I really enjoyed the review, it covered all of the main points of the Nassau and its fine attention to detail and outstanding quality!
Even though it’s small, MKII is one of the more interesting watch companies around. They’ve got some seriously dedicated fans for a reason.
Ooh! Pick me! Pick me!
Btw, W&W, thank you for such an awesome site! So glad I stumbled on to you! Keep up the good work!
Nice review. Beautiful watch.
Oh, I would love to own that watch!
MKII is doing great things as a brand. I was about to pull the trigger on a nassau, but waited one extra day and they were sold out! I truly am thankful that Worn & Wound and MKII are doing this givaway. It gives me a second chance to hopefully obtain this beauty.
I’m looking for a submariner style watch for a while now, just discovered W&W – and the excellent reviews and pictures!
Thank you for doing this giveaway!, I’ll leave it to Lady Fortuna from here…
Great review, and nice watch. Thanks for running the giveaway!
This is the best giveaway yet; I always get excited at even the possibility of winning a great watch from this blog, but this watch didn’t seem like one that would make it to a giveaway. Awesome!
Sweet looking watch… love the domed crystal
want want want!!
Great website! I check in every day.
This is awesome watch … Would love to add it to my small collection 🙂
Great watch! The possibility of winning one just made my day.
Great watch from a great company!!!! Definitely a want!
I sumbled across your Triwa review and like the blog so far. Thanks.
The red triangle is a nice touch.
Lovely.
A beautiful homage – fingers crossed!
I used to have Kingston from MKII, but i sold it. I would love get this one if i have a chance.
having handled other mkii’s this is one of the watches I lust for. It’s near perfection by my definition:
“perfection is achieved not when nothing more can be added, but when nothing else can be taken away”
Looks very well built!
Very nice watch!
Would love to have that watch!
Love the hands and unprotected crown! Would be fantastic to win it.
Woo hoo!
For anyone considering this watch, rest assured that it is everything as described on Worn & Wound and more. I’ve seen one on the wrist, and it compares very well with my Kingston. It is simply a great watch.
Very nice watch for the Give-a-way. thanks for the chance to win.
I’ve been following you guys for years and think you do a great job.
Thanks for the chance to win this. Enjoy the site!
Classic NATO is a must in any watch collection. Worn&Wound is the best!
Very nice review of the MKII …..and all products.
many thanks
This is a really awesome watch. I have always loved the looks of their pieces. Would love to someday own one.
John

Wow, what an awesome looking watch. I would love to have this one. I’ve always been a MKII fan… thanks for the great giveaway.
Beautiful watch and a great opportunity for the few of us that aren’t able to acquire one! Thanks for all the great reviews and the great pictures, keep them coming!
Definitely has a classic style !
Nice watch, great site.
I want it so bad, i would pay all the taxes and shipping costs(which would be huge) for sending it to Europe.
Another great review from W&W. I would love to have one of these watches.
This looks like a very well crafted watch. I would love to wear it. Good luck to all participants to the giveaway and many thanks to wornandwound.com for the opportunity!

-Thanks! 🙂
I am a proud Kingston owner, but should I not have one, I would most certainly go for the Nassau!
Love the little touch of red.
The triangle really makes the bezel pop. Always happy to see a watch assembled in the US.

thanks for your generosity of giving it away.
best regards
Mike
Years ago, I learned of Bill Yao from WatchUSeek and knew of Bill’s perfectionist approach from his days of making mod parts and custom watches through the growth of MKII. From the Quad10 to the Kingston, every watch he makes is done with passion and precision. The Nassau is another timepiece worth collecting!
That’s a sharp looking watch – I’m a big fan of the styling and size.
Great review and gorgeous watch!
Great giveaway and a beautiful watch!
Beautiful timepiece.
I would love, love, love to take a billion pictures of this watch and even review it myself online. It’d be a perfect time to win this as I’m about to graduate from school 🙂
MKII builds a damn fine watch!
Another remarkable from such a wonderful web site. Watch on!
Great review and an even better site. Thanks W&W!
An amazing watch which would be really good on my wrist! 🙂
My boyfriend loves watches more than anything and I would love to win this for him! Thank you for your consideration. 🙂
One of the best sub homages out there! Thanks for this giveaway, W&W.
Very nice giveaway Worn & Wound! Would love to have this MKII on my wrist!
Lovely,
Thanks for the review!
Cool watch, would look great on a leather nato from the W&W shop!
MKII has always been on my rader.
Thanks to W&W for an opportunity.
Thanks for doing these awesome reviews and giveaways!
this shall be a worthy successor to my trusty Casio.
Would love one of these
It is definitely an attractive watch.
I need a 12 step program to wean myself from this site – just kidding. Thanks for so many thoughtful reviews of watches i might never have been aware of!
Love! <3
Simply Amazing Watch!
Wow, what a great watch. Hope I win!
I really like your website! This watch is awesome! If I win I will wear this watch proudly everywhere I go!
Great looking watch.
Looks like there’s a lot of competition – but the watch looks so good, I can’t resist entering!
I’m loving the retro style with a modern twist!
I love the vintage look.
Gorgeous watch!
Love the website, keep up the good work!
Oooh so shiny, want so baaaaad,
Dear Nassau,
we’re looking forward to you! We will be the best friends for sure. We’re going to buy you an admiralty grey nato strap, which will suit you best.
Yours faithfully,
Steinhart Ocean One & Ocean Vintage Military
What a beautiful piece of horology! A piece I would treasure for a long time, I’m sure!
I could use another wrist clock.
Looks like a gorgeous watch.
I’m such a huge fan of MKII. They have incredible taste in watch design.
A great looking watch I would love to own!
Keep up the good work!
Beautiful watch! Thank you for giving us the opportunity to win one!
Very generous of you guys. I’ve always enjoyed MKII’s offerings, but never had the money to pony up on one. Absolutely love the BGW9 on this fella.
Beautiful watch!
Love the site.
I like the red accent. It’s very distinctive!
What a beautiful watch! Bill Yao is the real deal.
“Even a stopped clock gives the right time twice a day…”
This is a great website run by handsome and intelligent and awesome men, who are also other good things that are awesome and stuff.
Great watch! excellent execution in styling and dedication to a submariner!
As a long time fan and owner of Bill’s work, it’s nice to see this review of a quality timepiece.
Very nice!
YAO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That watch would look superb on my wrist 🙂
Wow, this has to be the best giveaway so far. I’d be proud to wear whatever Bill Yao produces. It makes a difference when someone puts so much care into what they do.
Honestly, you’re reviews are some of my favorite. I can really get a feel for the watch. This review made the nassau an incredibly appealing option.
Would be great to win this! Fingers crossed…
Thank you for having provided us with this awesome opportunity. The MKII Nassau is a great-looking piece – it and the ‘Ocean 1 Vintage Red’ are on my ‘must have’ dive watch list!
I love this watch, I need this watch, please!? 🙂
Great watch, matchs my karma!
Yearning for an opportunity to become a member of the proud MKII community!
Great review and awesome watch! Thanks.
Beautiful watch. Thanks for the giveaway.
Oh, how I’ve lusted after the MKII Nassau and Kingston! Yet I never seem to have the spare cash around when it’s time to put down a deposit… Great watches, and I can’t wait to own one at some point.
Omg omg, a diver watch contest exactly when I plan to buy a Seiko Monster. Must be my lucky day…. 🙂
I watched the development and deliver of this watch and it’s predecessor, the Kingston. I’ve been amazed by how genuinely giddy the watch recipients have been. I had been hesitant about the “homage” watch category, but MKII does it exactly the way I would want and I have gone so far as to get myself on the list for one of their other, upcoming projects. Keep up the good work!
I have a MKII Kingston and have sold off all my other watches because it never leaves my wrist! Mr. Yao makes an amazing product, and I’m sure the Nassau lives up to and exceeds expectations.
Could be the only way to get one of these, looks like they stopped taking orders temporarily on their site.
It looks great.
Awesome homeage. Top quality watch.
I personally think that the white second hand makes the watch. Here’s hoping I win the giveaway!
Would love to win this watch…
Have been following MKII since they started, would love one.
I love your website and reviews and this watch looks like a sweet one to own. Good luck to everyone 🙂
American made, beautiful watch! Love the red.
My husband would like two of these, please.
Classic! What’s not to like!
Love the fact that this watch is assembled in the US!
That’s a watch that would look good on the boat or at the opera. Classic styling.
Coolest style of watch, timeless design! Thanks for the review w&w!
great site, i open it every day to check if there are new reviews!
great watch also, well built, classic awesome design, impossible not to like!
What a great-looking watch!
Just bookmarked your rss feed and saw this… nice one, fingers crossed.
As always a great review. Bill Yao is an outstanding watchmaker.
Now if Aston Martin could make a homage to the DB5 as good as MKII did to the watch, well…..
Wow, what a fabulous opportunity, the MKII is absolutely spectacular.
I have never been much of a fan of sub homage watches, except of course for the Rolex Submariner, it’s just a classic. But I read the review yesterday and something about this watch really spoke to me although it is out of my reach at the moment. Or so I thought!
Really, ever since I found Worn and Wound last year I have never been so poor. I am slowly acquiring the watches that you review and I g
roan every time there is on over my, at the moment, $500 limit.
These giveaways give me hope and I look forward to each one, I never would have dreamed that you would give away an MKII.
Please let it be to me.
Best,
Graham
need one!!!
This is hands down the best Sub homage that I’ve seen. Thanks for another great giveaway chance!
Amazing watch!
Nice looking watch!
This is a beautiful watch, I hope I win it!
it’s really nice watch for my bf ^0^
MEOW
Beautiful watch and an amazing opportunity to be able to win it!
The best homage (along with the Kingston) out there. Somebody (hopefully me) is going to be a very happy WIS.
Found this through ‘The Tailored Watch’. Very understated watch. Would be a perfect daily wear.
Classic looking watch that is more than just an homage.
Unbelievable looking watch. I have always wanted one.
I’ve purchased two Nassau’s, one each for my wife and I. Wonderful time piece at an unbeatable price point.
I need another Nassau, because one can never have two many watches…
Cheers
I have MKII’s Seiko modification and am very happy with it.
Aw yeah can has?
Oh please God let me win this. Huge fan of Bill Yao and his MKII time pieces. I own the Blackwater and Sea Fighter and love them both. Would love to add the Nassau to my collection.
Thanks Worn&Wound for the opportunity.
I really like this watch.
Bring it home to High Point, NC!!!
My favorite watch review site, hands down! totally dig the homage watches!
Great watch! Even better review!
I was expecting a crown protector on the watch though.
You have love MKII products.
Beautiful watch, can only hope I win!
Nice execution of a classic timepiece.
Top marks to the MK II team !
It might be time for me to own a Sub homage. Thanks W&W for the giveaway and I hope to be the winner!
Please be mine dear valentine!
MK II makes awesome watches, My Blackwater is great and this one merely adds to the legacy.
My favourite blog!
Nice watch – the dimensions are actually not insane!
As if I wasn’t swooned by the watch already, the review sealed the deal
Thanks for the opportunity!
Sweet homage!!
Just discovered MKII and I really love their attention to detail!
I would never buy a Rolex but I do appreciate a well done homage.
Lovely piece of watch. I’d be happy wearing it for this summer’s camp and surf adventures. The winner will be stoked I’m sure. Best, øld abe
A very nice homage from a brand I’ve heard nothing but good things about.
Always a great admirer of MKII products. Stll have a MKII Seiko mod. in the collection.
What an awesome watch!!!
Wow, such a great watch, thank you so much for the opportunity to win it!
I’m a fan, especially the instagram photo you posted with the NATO strap.
I do need a watch.
W&W,
It’s been great to watch y’all change from a small blog into the primary source of information and reviews of accessible watches on the internet. I’d love to win the watch, thanks!
Seth
Bill Yao and W&W, awesome combo!
Great watch! Love W&W!
The MKII are sweet – keep up the good work W&W guys and thanks for the opportunity.
Another piece from Bill Yao that bring homage to the next level.
His dedication, sweat and toil to present us such a nice watch.
Thank you for the opportunity to add the 4th MKii into my collection.
Jeff
Amazing reception to this giveaway. Thanks MKII and W&W.
Really cool watch! Wish I could have it. The owner of MKII is actually my uncle 🙂
I’ve been looking forward to a MkII for a while now. Thanks for this chance to own one.
Love the Nassau! Thanks to MkII and Worn and Wound for providing this great giveaway.
Great review on another stunning MKII piece! The course of a great design is truly timeless. Love what the microbrand industry is doing, especially MKII.
I can only echo what everyone else has said: a beautiful watch and a great review. Stunning pictures as well.
I would love to see this and a Kingston side-by-side in real life. Both are amazing executions of a timeless design.
Love Bill Yao’s work and would love a Nassau for myself!
Lovely watch, thanks for the chance to win it!
Time waits for no man
Dig the red marker on the bezel and reasonable size! Thanks to MKII and W&W for the opportunity to win such a great watch. Also, my favorite part of the site is your photography.
One of the best looking Sub homages out there. Well done MKII! Would wear it often 🙂
Can’t wait to win it!
is one of the best homage sub out there.. wish i can have one.. 😀
great watch to win on my b-day – 4/19 ! Thanks Bill!
One MKII to me please!
Beautiful watch, I would an MKII!!!
…if I don’t win it, for sure I’ll buy it
(Didn’t know this brand)
My, what beautiful creation to track analogue time.
My, what a beautiful analog device.
Bill makes truly great watches. I’m wearing an LRRP right now and hope to get on the wait list for a Nassau when it reopens.
Um, yes please! Count me in!
I scrolled through over 500 comments to get my chance to win this watch. Isn’t that praise enough?
Four for you, MkII. You go, MkII.
I love MKII watches, and enjoy this blog.
Beautiful Sub Mk II!
Love the modern twists like the bigger dial and blue lume, together with the old-school feel of the thinner clasp!
What a beautiful work of art.
Stunning watch
nice! it would look awesome on a nato strap.
Awesome watch, a classic design and overall look.
This is one of my favorite style of watch.
Its great that these watches look like vintage pieces but with all the things that make modern watches great!
I absolutely love this watch! Wish I could order one, but they seem to be all out on the site.
Nice review and nice looking watch. Thanks.
I think the Sub is MKII Nassau homage!
Great Watch! Would be nice to own one.
Remember Sammy Jankis.
MKII makes beautiful tool watches for the watch enthusiast. I really like the vintage rivet style bracelet on this piece. Nice job Bill.
MKII – great watches.
W&W – great reading.
Beautiful watch!
that would like nice strapped to my wrist:)
Good luck me.
Thank you for a really thoughtful review of the Nassau, and MKII.
A high quality wearable watch for the price of a leather strap for one of the “high end” brands
Wow…. I thought I was straight out of luck and I was going to miss out on this watch. I had this on my wishlist when it was announced, and I was on their email list. Then when orders were being taken I was informed that I was losing my job so I couldn’t justify spending the money. My saving grace was that I was able to audition with another group at my company and luckily I got a gig with the new group that I love.
Unluckily for me, is that by the time I had the certainty of a secure job, new orders were stopped being taken. So I missed my opportunity to get this wonderful watch, which I was hoping to be my “promotion watch” before the job turmoil.
I’m hoping that I can win it, especially since the day after the entry period ends is my birthday. This would make me extremely happy. (Cheesy moment here) Something to remember the hard work I had to do get a new gig when it was extremely unlikely that I would get a gig with the new group because the proposed hire was at the exact end of their busy season.
Sorry for the pity story.
Don’t worry, “I would cherish this watch,” the Nassau isn’t a closed edition. There will be more Nassaus, perhaps in a date version. 😉
So clean!! Nice without the date magnification. Love the red detail on the bezel
Beauty!
So clean!! Nice without the date magnification. Love the red detail on the bezel
This watch is waiting for my wrist
Beautiful American Watch
Love MKII’s watch .
Great watch and great giveaway
This will add to my collection of MKII watches.
Love this watch! Never managed to get hold of a Kingston, but this would be fantastic instead!
Thanks for another awesome giveaway, guys. Keep up the great work.
Beautiful watch. I would love the opportunity to win it!
Thanks for the giveaway. I own a Mk II LRRP so I know this is a well built watch!
Amazing watch! A fine example of a combination of passion for the business and a love for the art.
Bill Yao of MKII consistently puts out the very best he can do. The Nassau is a prime example of that.
Great watch, and thank you for the chance W&W
A really beautifully designed watch, with both practicality and budget in mind! Puts a whole new twist to the submariner look!
Great review as always and another fantastic watch….
Beautiful watch & I love the attention to detail!
I’m in the very early stages of watch addiction… And Worn&Wound has become my daily fix.
Would love to make this my first diver watch!
sure is wonderfull watch! closest to Bond you can get, all you have to do is to put it on bond nato, slip into smoking and order martini, sjhaken, not stirred. And wait for the beautifull spy to come along…
Lovely watch. I would not mind adding it to my collection.
Looks sooooo good!
I like it
it makes me wanna lick the crystal
What can I say?! I agree its an absolutely gorgeous watch.
Wait a minute let me check my wrist again. Yeah..its gorgeous. 🙂
I’m a huge fan of diving watches and especially such beautifuly made ones.
Craftsmanship from Switzerland and the US combined, must be great. Hope I win it!
very nice and unique watch. probably will be the one and only in Poland
very nice and unique watch. probably will be the one and only in Poland
Nice watch! Hope I win it!
Looking for a Dive Watch to add to my collection and this fits the bill nicely.
Just got and NYC NATO from W&W and I can’t say enough how great it looks on my Hamilton
This W&W Blog is a Triumph !
Want!!!!!
An elegant, restrained watch and an intelligent, informed review.
Love the fact that besides being a tribute, it still maintains some character of its own. Good job from MKII, as is often the case.
This website makes my morning ! But seriously I have all fingers crossed on winning this one.
Very nice!
Ineffably well executed review of a beautiful timepiece. The refined attention to detail is a perfect companion to any watch collection no matter how fledgling to the obsession.
I would easily offer my cat for such a timeless timepiece (no pun intended)
Absolutely stunning watch from MkII…
What a fine looking piece! A must for any collection.
Awesome watch and great review
I love this style of submariner… want it!
Sweet looking watch
Another great watch from MKII. Even though I would wear it with a nato strap…
Help me increase my watch collection from 2 to 3. MKII really do make beautiful timepieces
Love the W&W reviews. Please keep up the good work!
Quite a few comments! Took me 2 minutes to just to swipe to the bottom on my tablet!
Stunning watch. Great site. One of my favourites on the internet!
An awesome watch at a very reasonable price….I love everything about it!
Great watch that’s got my name on it
All is love!
Great attention to detail in this watch. Hope to win it! Good luck everyone!
Loving the strap on this one, really nice detailing with the petruding pins and plates. The bezel w the red pop sets it off for me, V nice homage Bill!
nice watch! keep up the excellent reviews
when i read the review… i wanted one. I really like the slightly domed crystal.
Excellent timepiece!
Thanks for the great site and chance to win this sweet watch. I love the taste and aesthetic you are bringing to the broader watch conversation.
Awesome watch and awesome site!
Very classic wrist watch
Looks great. Thanks for the contest.
Fabulous watch!!!! Fingers crossed!
A very thorough and considered Nassau review. Thanks.
The Kingston is a respectful and superbly executed homage to the ‘Bond’ 6538 but I am beginning to feel that I like the Nassau more.
If Bill Yao ever proposes a ‘Live and Let Die’ watch homage, I’ll certainly be voting for the Submariner again over the Pulsar Bond is wearing at the start of the movie… (BOND WATCH FACT: When Bond looks at his Pulsar it reads “5:48”. When we get a close up of his new Rolex 4 minutes later, the time reads “5:52”. Big respect to Continuity and in particular to the Editor).
Finally, a decent sized submariner.
The MKII Nassau is an excellent watch that would be a very nice addition to my collection. Thanks to MKII and W&W for the giveaway.
That is a handsome watch!
Me likey likey
Timeless design on a great website. Would like to have it. Thanks
would love a chance to add that to my collection, would put it straight onto a bond NATO for summer wear
That would look awesome in my watch box! And even better on my wrist.
great review and great giveway
A salute to classic beautifully made. Thanks for the chance to win this wonderful watch.
Starting to get seriously obsessed with mkii watches, a really good and well balanced review,
Thanks
The double domed sapphire crystal looks absolutely amazing on any dive watch, and a great lume like BG W9 is awesome, the combination of both in this watch makes it completely irresistible.
Great watch! Great site!
do want so much
I want to win!! The watch looks incredible, good luck everyone
Very beautiful watch. I hope it makes its way to me!
Wow, I can’t believe this watch is on the giveaway. Worn&wound, you guys are damn cool for giving someone the opportunity to win this watch.
Another amazing giveaway from Worn & Wound. Thanks for the opportunity to win – or at least believe that I might have a chance 🙂
This is a pretty sweet watch and, as always, a great review. Pick me. Thank you.
Beautifully domed crystal and a nice clean finish to the watch.
great looking piece…true Bond feel!
Always fancied the Kingston however cost wise the Nassau makes far more sense as a daily wearer…for me at least.
What a great watch and what a great opportunity this is! Good luck to all participants!
I have a Kingston and love the Nassau. Bill is a brilliant professional.
Lovely and unbiased review! To have a chance to win this beauty is icing on the cake!
Thanks!!
Love it! Fantastic execution as always.
Thanks for the review, and the opportunity to maybe win the Nassau. It’s another classically-inspired achievement from MKII Watches and Bill Yao!
Love the site and I love dive watches
Great watch! I’d love to win it!
Very nice watch. Look forward to one comes with a date.
Quite interesting with no crown guards… looks sharp.
Great review, great watch. Good luck everyone.
Great watch, excellent review. I truly enjoy your website, Gentlemen.
Great watch! Very nice.
I’ve never owned a MKII but some (online) friends of mine speak very highly of them. I can certainly see why!
It sure is a pretty watch!
the most popular post ever? 🙂
You guys rock! Thanks for the opportunity to win!
-reinhard
What a classic!!
Great review. In my opinion Nassau is almost as good as Kingston which is the brightest star in my collection.
Great review! keep up the good work.
The review for this watch was my first time on the site. It was a great read and I had fun looking through the other reviews.
Regarding MK II it has been really interesting watching the brand evolve to where it is today. Congratulations to Bill.
Regards,
Charles
Really like the look and the dimensions of the watch!
Fantastic website, keep up the great work!
Great looking watch. Looking forward to wearing it in the summer, if I’m lucky!
Solid looking watch
Dude, that is a beautiful watch.
Thanks for the great website and watch reviews!
Certainly a good looking watch with reputed ETA movement. Also, love the looks and spark of sterling silver delivered by rhodium plating.
Very Interesting watch. thanks for doing the giveaway!
Always nice to read your posts, nicer if I can also win a MKII 🙂
I really love milsub homages and this is an especially good looking one.
Gimme gimme!!!
Nice looking MKII. Keep up the great reviews!
A beautiful and classic piece with a touch of my kind of perfect – RED!! After adoring my boyfriend’s MKIIs (and wearing them whenever I get the chance), it would be amazing to finally have my own. This one is exactly what my modest watch collection needs so fingers crossed! Thanks for the opportunity!
Fantastic watch..nice review
Awesome watch!
Very nice watch. Looks great!
Gorgeous watch!
I love all of the reviews you do.
MkII’s are awesome!
I would be a proud owner for this watch
Great watch! Great review!
Very nice looking piece!
Just getting into watches and have created a large wish list. This MKII is definitely going on it.
Great watch!!! LOVE IT!
What a beautiful watch and a great website. I would be proud to own it!
Great watch. It would look great on my wrist!
An Amazing watch! MIIK is the watch company to watch! Worn & Wound you do amazing reviews!
Great site! Great Watch!
So gracious of you guys to have a giveaway of such a wonderful timepiece.
If you pick me, I’ll call my first child “Wornandwound”! Well, just joking. But still, please pick me! 🙂
great watch, would love to be the lucky winner…
Wound up!
I would wear this with pride. Beautiful watch.
10/10 would wear & wind
Such a beautiful watch! I have been longing for an MKII for quite a while now. But with a new born baby it looks like this may be my only chance to get one (cue the violins)
If you guys do decide to choose the winner on meritoriousness, I hope you could consider my story…
On St. Patrick’s Day 2013 I stumbled upon a beautiful MKII LRRP for a better than awesome price. It was only when I took the watch home and started to research more info on the watch that I realized that it was a one of a kind, custom made LRRP; and it was stolen!!!
Long story short, I contacted Mr. Yao for confirmation and within a few days had the hot watch back in the hands of its rightful owner, Pete.
It felt good doing the right thing and it was nice to know that I was able to reunite Pete with his favorite watch in his collection…
But alas here I am… I had it but I let it go…
And violins play whenever I think of the MKII that I let slip away.
(cue the emo sunset)
** this is a true story, discussion thread on WUS/MKII Official Forum
great watch and great site, keep up the good work
Absolutely a stunning vintage submariner homage.
Would love to see that on my wrist!
It would be worn with pride !
Excited to be part of this and to explore W&W! Good luck all.
MKIi is very well made watch.
I’d love to win a MKII watch, I’ve heard great things about them
I’ve always liked your columns and reviews; keep up the great work W&W!
Thanks for offering up the giveaway! Stunning quality hommage from the MKII.
everything on this watch
is just right
from some reason
I was always successful
in these kind of competitions
I guess I’m just lucky!
Would love to win this!
I think a premium Submariner homage such as the MKII Nassau ($895) (or Raven Vintage $580) makes more sense as a watch purchase than the inexpensive Chinese replicas, affordable quasi-homages from large watch companies, and the Rolex Sub itself.
Thanks W&W for reviewing relevant watches.
The workmanship on Mk II’s in general is excellent and Bill’s got the details down pat. This Nassau is no different and is very well put together. Thanks for the giveaway opportunity.
A very nicely conceived watch with exceptional attention to detail and a very competitive price point to boot. Congrats!
Love that watch, and most of the other’s they made.
This gorgeous time piece would make a great addition to my collection! Thank you for this contest.
ugh, nice watch
This is my third shot at a W&W Giveaway. Third time’s the charm. Good luck to everyone and W&W guys keep up the good work.
I really need a sub-esque watch,
I don’t have a diving watch yet, but this looks like a beautiful candidate. Come to daddy.
I would love to show that one off at the next meeting.
I have been trying to get my wife to get me this watch as a present since day one. I hope I win it.
I like the red “0” marker on the bezel – adds just a drop of color without being colorful – much like a red second-hand on a black-faced chronograph does. I also like the (primarily) brushed finish. Great name: Nassau! It evokes the tropics, blue ocean, James Bond and, of course, the homage to the Submariner. Did I mention how great it’d look on my wrist? Appreciate the opportunity just to win one! Thanks W&W.
Great photo’s of one sweet Rolex homage.
just discovered mkii watches through this website, they are incredible watches, so thank you, if only I could afford one! maybe i’ll win!
Great Review once again, thanks W&W !
Great looking watch. I’m a sucker for dive watches. Love the blue lume.
This is a gorgeous watch. I love MKII, but Yao has outdone himself here. Pick me! Pick me! I will wear the crap out of it. Haha
Very beautiful watch indeed!
That bracelet and no crown guards, excellent vintage inspired touches.
Beautiful watch. Please be the winner.
Gorgeous watch
what an awesome opportunity to win an awesome watch
Excellent review of the Nassau…it made me lust after one even more so than the Kingston, especially after watching Thunderball this past weekend!
nice watch, great site!
Great watch and great review!
top notch watch!
I really like this kind of well made diver homages. I would love to see this amazing piece on my wrist. Especially the lume is brilliant.
Awesome watch and awesome site with the best reviews on afordable watches(my watch collection is getting bigger and my account smaller)
A perfectly designed dive watch and a beauty! Would love to win it.
Superb diver homage, perfect detailing, ultra want this watch!
My wrist cries for a nice watch.
What a thing of beauty this is! Sign me up, thank you very much.
My boyfriend would love this! He has been a big fan of MKII for a very long time. His birthday is coming up, and this would make a perfect gift for him (far better than anything I could afford). Please pick me!
Love this on the NATO strap.
I’m a poor college student and newly 21, as of April 11. It would be awesome to win something for once in my life!
Please give it to me….I really need it:)
My orient is broken and it’s time for a new ss diver style. #longshot.
I love the elegance of the sub aesthetic and that I could comfortably wear this anywhere without worrying about it.
A stunning watch and thanks for the opportunity to have a chance to have this wonderful piece in the collection.
I have always been impressed with the saga of MK watches. It would be an honor to wear this in my part of the world.
A sincere thank you for this opportunity.
Love this site. And the MKII looks amazing. I’d be crazy not to join the giveaway.
Also, the last sentence of the post is suppose to link to the full terms and conditions of the contest, but it looks like the word “here” wasn’t actually made into a link. Thought you might want to know.
This is a sweet watch!
What a beauty! I’ve enjoyed the reviews here.
Looks like a great watch! Thanks for all the helpful reviews and articles.
Such a gorgeous watch! Love reading your reviews, and would love the chance to own the MKII Nassau.
First time on this site but certainly not my last. This is a beautiful watch, thanks.
Enjoying my first visit to Worn and Wound – This is a fabulous site and a great give away!
This is probably the nicest Submariner homage ever built. And a great review, as always.
MKII nailed it with this watch! Now to just get it transferred to my wrist 🙂
wow, this is a homage masterpiece. want it!
A classic… one to have for a lifetime!
A great watch for my husband!
Solid diver with restrained aesthetics!
Beautiful watch. I would love to win it!
Thanks for sharing a glimpse of such an amazing watch! A true testament to Bill Yao and MKII!
Bill has always done great work, I look forward to hopefully being a future owner of one of his fine timepieces !
Here’s to hoping i win!
MKII’s Bill Yao assembles amazing watches (I own 2). The Nassau was preceded by a very similar limited edition model called the Kingston…it’s awesome that Bill decided to produce the Nassau as a non-LE piece! Whoever wins this is going to love it!
In for the chance!
Great watch! Thanks for the review and the giveaway!
Great watch amazing giveaway
Lovely. No need to say anymore.
Beautiful watch and great site to even offer this opertunity!
Amazing watches. Can’t believe you’re giving one away.
At the risk of upsetting the purists, I prefer the MKII Nassau over the Sub.
Great watch! I love the bracelett.
I love the case design and dial design. Simple classic and awesome. Great.
Love the watch, if only I can afford it. Thank you MKII and wornandwound for making this competition.
Awesome homage!
The MkII is an outstanding homage to our beloved … Thank You for the Great Review … It would be fantastic to win one …
Great looking watch!
I bought the same Cuba Strap featured in your Skindiver review. Now I just need a Watch for it. This is hits the spot, fantastic piece!
awesome watch!
Something made with an eye for detail and quality will always be desirable to those who appreciate craftsmanship.
Thanks for the opportunity. Great review, and fantastic photography.
Great looking watch. Would look stunningly great on my wrist.
Like the size
I’ve been interested in MKII watches for years. They keep getting more expensive, and they keep selling out! Time to join the party.
Great website! Hello from across the pond! 🙂
Awesome, thanks!
I think the red on the bezel makes the whole thing work. Great looking piece. As usual fantastic complete review. Keep it up!
Bill Yao does incredible work. It’ll be interesting to see where MKII ends up.
Great site. Great contest.
What a great homage. Putting history out there in a very tasteful way for the average person.
I just stumbled across this site and love it! I’ll be a frequent reader from now on. Cheers
Any MkII watch is worthy of having, and the Nassau seems to deliver on all of its promise
What a beautiful watch!
I hope I can add this alongside my MKII Stingray…
Wow I would love to get in those guts!
Very nice watch!
Awesome watch!
Well done worn and wound…. great review of the watch originally and amazing giveaways!
Gives a college kid something to aspire to, thank you!
Always have been a big fan of MKII’s! The Nassau is a beauty, would love to win it. I really wish they would make the Vantage again.
An excellent review as always guys! Thanks!
W&W – another beautiful watch.
This is my go-to site for watch related information with amazing photography – ofter better than the manufacturer’s!
Great looking watch! A classic design.
I love the watch, the design, the size…
Wow! Super watch..would love to win it 🙂
It would be great to win that watch!
Thanks for the opportunity to have a go.
Good lawd that watch is slick. Awesome concept.
That Nassau is one MKII I’ve missed, I like the look and the build quality, and especially the white seconds hand, a nice touch to an already perfect watch. Good luck everybody!
The Nassau looks awesome! Quality review!
Good luck everyone!
Another winner from Bill Yao. Keep up the good work, MKII and W&W!
Would be a great watch to have. Love the 39 width, more towards the classic side.
Great watch, MKII delivers as usual. And thank you W&W!
Thanks for the review. I am a big MKII fan and the Nassau doesn’t dissapoint.
This would sure look nice on my wrist 🙂
My favorite watch site, and a beautiful watch.
GreAt looking watch, and mkii is awesome stuff
Great looking watch – it would make be the nicest of my bunch.
Awesome timepiece. Doubly so that it’s made right down the road from me in Wayne, PA!
Good to see such a superb piece of machinery from the Mid-Atlantic.
Awesome watch. Put me in the running!
Absolutely beautiful watch. Glad to have an opportunity to own one!
I’m okay with homage watches, and I think this one is finely executed. I would be proud to wear it.
Really like the look of the MKII Nassau! Nice Vintage look and would look great on some NATO straps as well!
Thank you for the opportunity!
Such a beautiful watch and it’s made in the USA! What more could we ask for?
Beautiful watch — really digging the vintage dive watches — great work as always finding these somewhat obscure watches.
Really beautiful watch and a very well done review. A couple more pictures with the Nato would’ve been awesome. Have you heard anything from MKII about a date version too?
Great review and what a beautiful watch. I have been looking at this watch for a while now.
This will be a good one adding to my collection. Kudos to WnW and MKII for the chance.
just last week I was drooling at this and now its up for giveaway! Kudos to W&W and MkII!
Mahalo to WnW and MKII for the opportunity!
I’m going to win!
Some things are even better than the original!
Nice clean looking watch!
Love the red triangle on the bezel at 12 o’clock
This would be such a nice gift! So nice to give it away?
a truly beautiful watch.
for a change, a hommage that pays tribute to the original also dimensions-wise.
I wonder if an acrylic crystal may have been more loyal to the spirit of this watch
Great review. Great site
Great looking watch from a company with a great reputation.
Great looking watch!
My hubby give Kingston to me. I hope I will give him in return.
Love the kingston build and I believe nassau will be as well
Great watch. Might put it on the worn + wound nato that I’ve got.
Another great giveaway, thanks guys!
Beauty! I want it.
Thank you W&W for the opportunity to win this lovely masterpiece!
It will be a great gift for us to celebrate our new born baby which my wife’s name and our baby name started with the alphabet “M” and ended with my surname, the alphabet “K”.
Lastly thank you to Bill Yao for his masterpiece!
Not normally a fan of homage watches, but MKII makes great timepieces. Attention to detail is second to none.
I have purchased the SevenFriday PR1 and Obris Morgan Branco primarily because of Worn&Wound! This is a nice Homage, love it!
such a nice watch!!
A great piece to add to my collection!
I’m literally shopping around for my first submariner. This would be a great watch to have.
win win win…girlpower
I can see that this is going to be a hugely popular giveaway… I’ll throw my hat into the ring!
Sharp watch. Love this site!
pick me!
Gorgeous watch, and what a popular giveaway!
It would be a nice addition to my begining collection !
Thanks for a great giveaway.
What an fantastic looking watch!
Hope to win!
i need a watch!
Awesome watch, hope to win.
A beautiful tribute to an iconic timepiece, the original no date submariners are truly stunning grail watches beloved by countless horological admirers world wide. The red triangle on the bezel and the absence of a crown guard inject a bit of personality into the watch, while the rest of the design reminds us all of what we love about the submariner!
A big thanks to MKII for the giveaway watch, and to the people at worn and wound for running the best watch blog out there!
Cheers!
Beautiful watch with excellent attention to detail! Cool to find out MKII is local to me.
What a fun giveaway! Thanks!
What a great looking watch! Good luck to me!
I would really love to win this watch! Thanks for the awesome giveaway!
Great piece, true to its roots!
What a beauty!
Great looking piece! Looks like it would hold up nicely as a daily driver.
Truly a fantastic watch. Always enjoy W&W’s reviews, thanks.
I love this watch! Hope I win! It would look better on a girl anyway.
Wow. I love what MKII have done with this Submariner homage! Fingers crossed for a win. Thanks for the review and giveaway W&W.
Stunning watch!! perfect balance of sports/dress watch!!
Chris 🙂
Great looking homage. I’ve already got the Steinhart OVM in my collection and would love to add this along side it. Keep up the good work guys. Always love reading your reviews.
Great watch. MKII consistently creates amazing retro cool watches! Thanks for the opportunity to own one.
Count me in! Although rapidly diminishing chances!
Appreciate the site too – thanks fellas
Nice looking watch.
I love the site. Dangerous though, as I’ve already bought a couple watches you’ve reviewed. And a strap or two.
This watch is on my wish-list!
Have been looking at the Nassau.
Your review has convinced me.
Either I win your giveaway watch or jump on the MKII to purchase.
J
Love the details on this one, the blue lume, the capped links. Would love to have one!
I have been eyballing a few of the submariner tribute watches. This one, and the Steinhart vintage are two of my favorites. I am sure I would put a watch like this to good use. Cheers for the giveaway.

Nice watch. I want it!
Outstanding watch! Very happy to find this MK II brand.
Thank you for writing some of the finest watch reviews.
– Big Al
I love sub homages, I own a Steinhart Ocean Vintage Military on a Toshi tobacco leather strap but this must be the best sub homage I’ve seen so far, simply brilliant details and proportions – I would love to win this!
Nice looking watch. The design (submariner ishh) always works well I think.
If the stars would align as such that there’d be a reality in which I would be standing under the shine of the moon with this watch on my arm, that would be freaking cool.
Love the watch. Love your site. Always a good source of reasonably priced watches. I feel inspired to work hard at my job so I can save towards the watches featured on the wornandwound.com.
Yet another MKII stunner…
Yet another MKII Stunner!
Count me in!
Very nice watch
Always love MKII, from quad 10 to this great homage. Cheer!
Beautiful watch the MKII! i hope it looks as good on my wrist as it does on yours 😉
Great piece, I especially love the red 12 o clock indicator. The whole thing is very nicely balanced, and the fit and finish is superb. What a watch!
The MKII Nassau homage is a great looking timepiece and honours its roots down to the T! in fact from reading the W+W review and other reviews on this piece the makers have improved on some areas that the original brand lacked.
Lets hope i’m the winner of the giveaway so i can see this stunning watch in person!!
Great review of an absolutely stunning watch. As a submariner superfan, I would love to add this one to my growing collection!
I have only recently discovered worn&wound and very glad that I did. Another excellent review and a lovely watch, I look forward to many more !
What a great review!
Bill has done it again. This is truly a beautiful watch! It would certainly have a place of honor in my collection. Thanks to MKII and Worn and Wound. Good luck to all.
Next to a classic sub this must be the next best thing. I so would like one
Awesome watch!
Definitely a classy watch. Loved the review.
Really nice watch and would definitely have lots and lots of wrist time. Hopefully on my wrist.
MKII really take the time to put together a great looking piece from top-notch components.
Yet another beauty from the minds and hearts of MKII…nicely done!
Great Bond homage! I would love to own it.
Thank you for this opportunity.
From almost one year that i’m trying to find a MK II dial for ETA. It would be heaven to win this watch.
All the best for everyone
Ps:Sorry for my english
what a wonderful watch! I just love it.
Beautiful watch, thanks for your generosity!
Wow, nice watch, thanks for the opportunity.
Love this watch and this site!
lovely watch and lovely website. awesome opportunity, thanks!
Gorgeous watch! Would love the opportunity to win.
Incredible watch! and great review!
Kingstons cousin:)
Love MKII Watches! I own the MKII Vantage and it’s a fantastic watch.
I wanted so bad to pull the trigger on a Kingston, but missed out. This review has demonstrated how expectional MKII is…imo one of the very best micro/boutique brands out there.
Keep up the great work here! This has become one of my goto sites regarding watches 🙂
What a stunning watch. Love the fact it’s assembled in the USA. Though IMO the Sea Fighter is their best looking watch.
I missed out on both the LRRP and the Kingston – would love to have a Nassau. Bill’s work is stunning! Thank you to worn&wound and to Bill for this fantastic opportunity and congratulations to whomever wins this gorgeous timepiece!
Very nice time piece!
Nice watch…and who’s to say no to free stuff?
Love Bill Yao’s designs. great looking watch!
I’m generally not big on “comments”, but given the opportunity to win an amazing watch I’ll step out of my comfort zone. As an aside the straps for sale on the site are awesome. I highly recommend.
The Nassau is such a great watch–I’m always impressed by MKII’s work.
Looks like it would be a perfect daily wearer for me.
Great site – the chance to win is a nice bonus. Thanks for the hard work!
Such a beautiful watch, thanks for the opportunity and hopefully I’ll get lucky!
Nice to see a quality watch that’s American made.
Further proof that worn and wound kicks ass! The Nassau has been on my “want” list for a while. Keeping my fingers crossed!
Great quality watch. Looks great. Best of luck to all!
Sweet looking watch.
Great looking watch! Love these giveaways!
Appreciate the opportunity to win this very nice piece. The giveaway is a great idea.
Looks like it would be a nice everyday wear watch. I’m generally not a fan of modern diver watches (most of them are too big in diameter and/or thickness for my wrist); however, the vintage look works for me.
Stunning looking watch, thanks for covering this timepiece guys!
Great watch, keep up the good work!
That’s a cool watch, and the care that has gone into making it is impressive at this price point.
The 60 click bezel sounds awesomely dramatic and determined, compared to the 120 clicks I’m used to. I’d love to play around with that.
I’ve never won anything in my life, If I won this watch, I wouldn’t need to…
Thanks for providing the opportunity to win this watch!
This watch looks great. Nice homage!
Very nice watch! I’m on the detox from mechanic watches but it would surely make a pretty addition to my small collection!
This is such a nice homage!
It combines all the style elements that I like in a diver…!
Thanks for the giveaway !!!
Regards,
Bart
Beautiful watch, nice homage with a few desirable updates – unique bracelet and domed crystal.
Thanks!
Good luck everyone
The Nassau is a beautiful watch
*fingers crossed*
Another insightful and comprehensive review, paired with some truly beautiful photography. Thank you, W&W, for bringing this extraordinary brand, and its hugely desirable timepieces to my attention. The Nassau moves straight to the top of my mini-grail list.
What a beautiful watch.
Good looking Swiss American co-production
No matter your taste, you have to be impressed by the craftsmanship. Thanks to W&W and MKII for this opportunity.
Wow.
I’ve always want one. It’s a really beautiful watch. Hope that I win this one. Finger crossed.
After reading your review of this watch I really want one. Thanks for the review.
Great watch and thanks for a chance to win it.
Sweet sub homage and quality watch that has plenty of its own unique features.
Count me in. I hope I get lucky because I’m loving this watch!
As a true lover of watches and long time admirer of Mkii, it would be a delight to own and live with the Nasau. Thank you Worn and Wound for this exciting opportunity, it would make one very hopeful fan very very happy.
-Sam
I enjoyed your reviews and look forward to more. Keep up the good work and keep taking great pictures of these beautiful timepieces.
Beautiful watch, love the site!
Thanks for the giveaway. Great watch and great review as always.
Hope this leads to more readers and more customers for W&W and MKII.
A calm comment remarking what a remarkable give away! MK II has come a long way.
Nice looking timepiece. I really like the tone of the blue face I’ve been looking for one similar.
I really like how far the MkII has come what a great watch for a giveaway. Great reviews, the one on the Orient Bambino lead to the purchase of my favorite watch.
Nice watch!!!! bill yao’s dedication to quality is what elevates mkii above other homage watch makes. This would make a nice addition to my collection.
Awesome watch, great review and cool giveaway.
Beautiful watch, a real retro frogman feel.
Such a classic design. I’ve been eyeballing this watch for quite some time. Beautiful ….
A great homage from a great company on a great website. Kudos!
Great Watch! and with good timing, my old watch just died.
I would love to replace it with this one!
Thanks Worn and Wound!
Gorgeous watch! Loved the Kingston when it first appeared!
Good looking watch!
Love the site and the watch.
Wonderful review of one of the best looking watches around. Thanks for a chance at owning one.
Lovely timepiece
well, I sort of like the real rolex but damn if my wife will let me buy a real mccoy so if you’re gonna just give it away, um….I guess I’ll take one. Sure.
can I sell it back and just pocket the grand?
Love this style of homage!
Too late? Or not?
Wow, it took me an hour to scroll down to this comment form. Would love to win this watch… I’d gift one of my personal faves to a friend and keep paying it forward.
Cheers
Handsome watch, one that anyone would be proud to wear.
An exquisite piece of horological art. Love to have it!
W&W,
Thanks for the opportunity to win a MKII classic. If this comes my way I’ll be quickly purchasing a W&W watch roll to house it 😉
-S
thanks to you folks here at worn&wound for getting me into MKII. I definitively look forward to buying from them in the future (the sooner the better). I wouldn’t ask for a better start than having a nice Nassau to come my way.
They’ve made the submarine watch their own. Beautiful!
Uber Cool watch…
i would be very happy to wear it everyday
Love these MKIIs!
Absolutely beautiful!
Stunning honor to the Submariner. Thanks for the chance to own one.
Pick me!
Great looking watch.
I want that red mark in my life!
Really enjoying this site, keep it up!

Pretty watch, WANT!
I saw this watch in person. Without a doubt one of the most beautiful watches I have ever seen. It has a utility look, while still being an incredibly classic and sophisticated watch. I would love to own this timepiece.
Nice watch, review and comp!
Very nice watch, make the classic Rolex vintage reborn!
I neeed this in my life

Handsome watch and love that it is made in the USA.
This is the best Rolex sub design recreated with modern materials!!
My goodness – what a fantastic watch! Thanks to both w&w and MKII for the giveaway!
Sub homages are my fave!
I could use this watch.
You are the handsomest guys in the watch business. And you smell nice.
Appreciable craftsmanship at an affordable price, homage watches make the world a more enjoyable place 😉
Awesome homage! I’d love to win it!
Thanks for an informative site and the chance to win prizes!
Great watch, great website.
Just considered buying a similar style watch, how about I win one for free? Was considering the Seiko Urchin as the MKII is just out of my budget. Cool to own a piece assembled in the U.S., it has a lot going for it.
Great looking watch!
Love reading these reviews. Very insightful and at the same time, easy to understand for any level of watch connoisseur.
Great Looking MKII as well!
Big fan of MKII and would love to get my hands on such a hard to find offering
