Looking back at the watches of Carpool Karaoke – from Paul McCartney to Bruno Mars

James Corden is not particularity in the public favour right now, so it is quite timely that The Late, Late Show With James Corden is coming to an end next month. That being said, this does potentially mean the end of Carpool Karaoke (unless the Apple spinoff sans-Corden continues). The concept of Carpool Karaoke is … Continued

Buying Guide – Six Aventurine Watches That Bring Starry Skies To The Wrist

Hands-on – The Exquisite Audemars Piguet Royal Oak QP Ultra-Thin With Smoky Blue Dial

If anything has become clear when reviewing all the novelties presented by Audemars Piguet earlier this month, it is the simple fact that it has gone all-in in terms of complexity.

Opinion – Why I Don’t Understand The Hate For The Code 11.59 By Audemars Piguet Anymore

What do you do when you want to launch a new collection alongside a truly legendary range that once redefined what luxury watchmaking was?

Hands-on – The Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore “Beast” In Black Ceramic

The Beast… Probably the second most emblematic watch of Audemars Piguet. A watch that, like its Genta-designed 1972 ancestor, broke the rules and created an entirely new segment of watches. Extravagant, oversized and polarising at the time of its introduction 30 years ago, it defined the ultra-robust luxury sports watch genre. The first Royal Oak […]

Review – The Mighty Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Concept Split-Seconds Chronograph GMT
