March LA.B is a relatively young brand, based between France and California, which was created in 2008, with a clear focus on design and vintage inspirations… But not the usual 1960s tool-watch kind of vintage. Something different, something bolder, quite unique in the industry. And even though it’s the first time we cover one of […]
Bebop jazz is anything but clean and minimalist. Still, its founder inspired Oris to make a watch that is exactly that. Meet the latest watch in Oris’ Jazz Legend collection, dedicated to drummer Art Blakey, who had his heyday quite some time ago, but hasn’t been forgotten. Meet the new Oris Art Blakey Limited Edition. […]
I’d love to say that I’d be curious to see what a modernly designed Breguet would look like… But I can’t! I can’t, simply because Breguet carries so much history and legacy that it must not be bolder than it should, or experiment with avant-garde design… It can be (and actually is) innovative technically speaking, […]
It is not entirely new to see Saxon brand Glashütte Original launching more and more original watches. Previously rather classic and Teutonic in design, the brand explores new themes and new colours with recent collections. Even the most traditional watches, such as PanoMaticLunar, get more colourful editions, such as the recently presented rose gold with […]
The watches produced by Ferdinand Berthoud (Chopard’s sister, high-end brand) are fascinating and depict impressive mechanics and finishings. At the SIHH 2019, the brand introduced an exclusive limited edition watch, named the Chronomètre FB1 “Oeuvre d’Or”. As part of Mexico City SIAR 2019 Salon, the brand introduces a new version of this watch with a […]
Chinese New Year kicks off on 25 January 2020 and according to the Chinese zodiac, this means we are entering the reign of the Year of the Rat (metal rat, to be precise) replacing the pig. The rat is the first animal in the Chinese Zodiac and is associated with many positive qualities such as […]
There is no doubt that Longines knows its business when it comes to re-editing past models. This was true with the Avigation BigEye, the Type A-7 or the Heritage Military. Despite how good these watches were, there was always a small ‘but’ (a date, a large case…) but what you’re about to see is a […]
Two young Belgian watchmakers got to know each other at the watchmaking school of Namur. After one of their long midnight conversations about watches, they decided to start their own brand (I’m sure you can picture the scene). By 8 o’clock in the morning, the first sketches were ready. Now that watch has become a […]
Vintage-inspired watches are all the rage these days with military and dive watches usually grabbing the spotlight. Tissot has been around since the early 1850s and knows a thing or two about vintage watches. The brand’s Heritage collection is full of throwbacks, celebrating milestones in both engineering and design. For instance, the Visodate line looks […]
When Seiko internationally launched its Presage sub-collection a couple of years ago, the goal was clear: offering a classic approach of watchmaking and a focus on traditional craftsmanships, still at a relatively accessible price. To do that, the brand introduced several classic, elegant and discreet pieces, with dials made of enamel or using ancient Urushi lacquer. A few years later, we’ve seen some very nice editions in white or blue enamel and today, Seiko brings a slightly different and no often seen colour. Meet the new Seiko Presage Green Enamel Dial SPB111J1.
