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 […]
Classic, traditional, restrained… Those are not words you would associate with watches manufactured by HYT. Not only does the display itself, based on a fluidic indication of the time, make a statement, but the design, the style, the size… Everything about these watches is meant to be futuristic. The watches are bold but also artistic […]
Yesterday, we introduced the new standard, modern, classic Monaco watch, now equipped with in-house calibre Heuer 02 replacing the now-discontinued blue-dial Monaco Calibre 12… The end of an era. Is it, really? Well, before permanently turning the page on the Calibre 12, TAG Heuer has a special surprise, with a new limited edition… Meet the […]
The 50th-anniversary celebrations of the iconic Monaco watch and its early automatic chronograph movement aren’t over yet – it’s still 2019 after all. Yet, after a series of super-limited editions, one for each decade, it is time to come back to regular production watches. On the occasion of this commemorative year, TAG makes an important move on its classic blue-dial, 3 o’clock-crown Monaco – the modern one, not the Steve McQueen-inspired model. Say goodbye to the Monaco Calibre 12 and its outsourced movement. Say hello to the new TAG Heuer Monaco Heuer 02, with the brand’s own chronograph movement.
When a watch debuts with an unusual material, such as ceramic, titanium or even sapphire crystal, a relatively high price usually reflects the rarity and increased manufacturing difficulty (and, of course, marketing prowess).

During Time To Move, Swatch Group own event to present the new collections, Glashütte Original has presented several watches totally in line with its usual conception of watchmaking, such as the facelifted Senator Chronometer or an engraved PanoInverse. Yet, the star of the show, the watch that the Saxon brand presented first, the main novelty for 2019… is a watch none of us actually expected from the brand; a dive watch collection named SeaQ. Following our first look right after its presentation, it is time to now have a closer look at the modern SeaQ Panorama Date, to see if this Saxon dive watch is convincing (or not).
When you think about Heuer watches, everybody has in mind the Jack Heuer era, meaning the Carrera (in all its executions), the Autavia and, 50th anniversary obliges, the Monaco. Yet, there are many other watches, mostly chronographs, produced under the Heuer name that deserve some attention. One of them, a true sleeping beauty, a “Heuer […]
For the third year in a row, following the very original and arty Orion “De Stijl” and the sporty Club Campus Amsterdam, Dutch retailer ACE presents a collaboration watch with Glashütte-based watchmaker Nomos. And for the third year in a row, they hit the right note. The already existing Zürich World Timer (Weltzeit in German) was […]
The watch industry is undergoing a transformation. Multiple young microbrands have popped up on the scene, relying on crowdfunding to launch their (interesting or not) projects. New on the scene is a brand named Riskers, a French venture with models inspired by trench military watches, modernized for the occasion. But what’s special about Riskers, apart […]
