Recently I had the opportunity to enjoy spending some quality time with not one, but two exceptional timepieces from A. Lange & Söhne. Belonging to the same family, the Saxonia Moonphase and the Saxonia Outsize Date share a very similar aesthetic. In fact, from a distance, you could be forgiven for mistaking them as the […]
H. Moser & Cie. introduces the Endeavour Perpetual Moon Concept Aventurine, a limited edition of 50 pieces in red gold or steel. Like all the Concept watches at Moser, the dial is stripped down to its bare essentials. Set against a majestic dark blue aventurine sky, the Moon is the undisputed star of the show […]
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 […]
Since 2016, Bovet has unveiled a series of astronomical timepieces. The Shooting Star was the first, followed by the Asterium in 2017. In 2018, we saw the Grand Recital, an impressive watch that won the Aiguille d’Or at the GPHG 2018. These 3 masterpieces were presented in a rather particular case, with a slopping shape […]
It’s becoming an established routine now: every month, for the last eight months since January 2019, we receive news of the latest birthday present to celebrate 25 uninterrupted years of the Lange 1. The Little Lange 1 Moon Phase is the ninth anniversary model out of a grand total of ten special models dedicated to […]
Slate grey and rose gold is a combination that works particularly well. Parmigiani Fleurier has applied it to several of its model recently, such as the Toric Chronomètre. It is now the time for the sleek and dressy Tonda 1950 Lune to get the same elegant colour scheme.
Recently, Girard-Perregaux, which is now managed by the same man as sister-brand Ulysse Nardin, has seen a rather bold evolution, with sportier designs and modernity in the construction of the movement. Still, one of the pillars of the collection remains the elegant 1966 watch – a piece usually on the restrained side, with precious metals and dressy design… Usually, because the latest version of this watch, the Girard-Perregaux 1966 Blue Moon, is certainly less classic.
The never-ending birthday party of the Lange 1 receives its sixth celebratory watch, the Lange 1 Moon Phase “25th Anniversary”. As the ambassador of the Saxon brand, the Lange 1 is being regaled with ten very special watches, unveiled one by one on a monthly basis until October 2019. Gift-wrapped in the same silver and […]
Here it is… The multi-million watch, potential record-breaker as the most expensive watch to be auctioned by Only Watch – remember the 5208T from 2017 (sold for CHF 6,200,000) and the 5016A from 2015 (sold for CHF 7,300,000)? What you’re looking at here is a unique example of an extremely rare piece, Patek’s most complicated […]
