SIHH 2019 – Panerai Submersible 42mm PAM00683 and PAM00959

It looks like 2019 is geared to become the Year of the Submersible watch for Panerai, a rugged professional diver that perpetuates the spirit of the brand’s historic role as a supplier of underwater instruments for commandos of the Italian Navy. So far at the SIHH 2019 we’ve seen two other Submersible novelties – Marina Militare and Luna Rossa – rigged for action in XXL Carbotech cases. The new PAM00683 and PAM00959 variants of the Submersible shrink in size, come with either a black dial and black ceramic bezel or grey dial and blue ceramic bezel and are fitted with an automatic movement.

SIHH 2019 – IWC Pilot’s Watch UTC Spitfire Edition “MJ271” – the Comeback of the UTC Display

As part of its thematic focus on Pilot’s Watches for the SIHH 2019, IWC resurrects one of its signature complications, a device that was used in the past on pilot’s watches, the UTC for “Universal Time Coordinated” – a watch also known as the TZC for “Time Zone Corrector”. A practical dual-time watch, which is easy […]

SIHH 2019 – IWC Pilot’s Watch Automatic Spitfire Steel or Bronze – Smaller and with In-House Movements

With its focus on military/pilot watches for the SIHH 2019, IWC just launched two new 3-hand pilot’s watches under the Spitfire sub-range – those could have been simple evolutions of the standard Pilot’s Watch Mark XVIII, but there are multiple updates on the model and all models will coexist without the Mark XVIII being replaced. In the same vein as the Bronze Chronograph unveiled a few weeks ago, meet the smaller, manufacture-powered and vintage-inspired IWC Pilot’s Watch Automatic Spitfire Bronze or Steel for SIHH 2019.

SIHH 2019 – A. Lange & Söhne Zeitwerk Date

It is hard to believe that Lange’s most daring watch, the Zeitwerk, has been launched in 2009. Several variants have been added to the collection since, all with chiming complications – Striking Time, Minute Repeater, Decimal Strike. On the occasion of its tenth anniversary, Lange’s first mechanical wristwatch with a precisely jumping digital display is endowed with a new manufacture calibre featuring a surprising extra function – and this time, it isn’t a chiming complication. Indeed, a glass ring date has been added to what is now named the A. Lange & Söhne Zeitwerk Date.

Meet the new (and superb) Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Grande Tradition Gyrotourbillon Westminster Perpetuel – a.k.a The Gyrotourbillon 5.

SIHH 2019 – Panerai Submersible Marina Militare Carbotech PAM00961 (Including a Unique Experience in the Box)

This year, at the SIHH 2019, the main focus of Panerai will be on the Submersible watch – a bold and back-to-basics move to refocus the brand on the diving world. The first of the watches to be introduced is a “militarized” version of the impressive (and surprisingly convincing) Submersible Carbotech. But that’s probably not the only […]

Introducing – Maurice Lacroix Aikon Mercury – with Patented “Free Hand” Display

With its Masterpiece collection, Maurice Lacroix has distinguished itself by creating unconventional complications – the Gravity, the Roue Carrée (squared-wheel), retrograde indications, the mysterious seconds… The brand is now infusing this spirit into its successful sporty collection with the Aikon Mercury, an original take on display, where hands are not always indicating the time.

SIHH 2019 – Ulysse Nardin Freak X – The New Entry Price Point for The Freak Collection (Hands-On)

The Freak watch has been a beloved rock star in the Ulysse Nardin line-up ever since its introduction to the world in 2001. Back then, the flying carrousel watch was an anomaly and many watch lovers were immediately smitten by its complex watchmaking and alluring design. it was also the watch that introduced silicium technology to the world – the Freak was, in 2001, the first watch featuring silicium elements to ever be commercialized. Since then, Ulysse Nardin continues to evolve the Freak. Even last year at SIHH, the brand offered the newest evolution, the Freak Vision, an automatic watch that incorporated a few top technical innovations from the prior year’s Innovision 2 Concept watch. Now, Ulysse Nardin takes the beloved hands-free watch to new heights with the Freak X – and to another price category too, as this Freak is even more affordable than the previous Freak Out.
