The luxury sports watch is one of the most successful categories, dominated by cult classics such as the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak and the Patek Philippe Nautilus – two timepieces that defined the genre back in the 1970s. Smaller independent watchmakers are now entering the category. Brands like Laurent Ferrier, Urban Jurgensen or H. Moser […]
There’s no denying the current trend for the luxury sports watch; stainless steel watches with shaped cases, relatively thin profiles, a combination of luxurious appeal and sturdiness and, most importantly, integrated bracelet/case design.

Piaget expands its elegant Altiplano collection with two watches in pink gold with vibrant blue dials, with or without diamonds on the bezel. As one of the most persuasive proposals of a dress watch for both men and women, the Altiplano has a perfect diameter of 38mm and an ultra-slim silhouette of just 6mm. And […]
For those who think that watches produced by Glashütte Original are quite austere, with silver-coloured dials and blue elements, the brand’s recent launches might prove them wrong.

The Polo S is Piaget’s answer to the luxury sports watch and was launched in 2016. With its 42mm cushion-shaped case and 1970s vibe, the 9.4mm height of the case remained surprisingly slim for an automatic sports watch and reflects Piaget’s tradition of watches with lean profiles. For 2020, Piaget introduces a new version of […]
At first, you might think that this new watch is a vintage re-edition of the iconic 1969 El Primero A386 – which it is, and that’s already quite something, as this one is stainless steel. But this watch is actually much more. First of all, it will be the final version of the A386 available […]
Let’s say that this watch won’t be everybody’s cup of tea… maybe some of you won’t find it brew-tiful… Maybe, this watch will make you feel mugged? Indeed, thanks to these (not-so-profound) puns, you’ll get the point with this watch, which is the rather special result of a collaboration between customizer Bamford Watch Department and […]
