Sometimes, it doesn’t take much to do a great watch. It doesn’t necessarily take great complications, high-end materials, overly-engineered movements or complex shapes. A classic and elegant watch doesn’t need all of that. What it needs is a far more subtle recipe, which requires well-curated ingredients.

Bucherer‘s bold and modern TravelTec model has been a cornerstone of the brand’s lineup, celebrated for its triple time zone complication that has become a defining feature of its identity.

Seiko has a reputation for releasing a ton of new watches over the course of a year, and some stand out more than others. Most often, we’re dealing with adaptations of an existing (sub)collection with new colours or textures for the dial. Today, though, we get to show you a completely new sub-range that is […]
It was during Baselworld 2010 when Zeitwinkel co-founder Ivica ‘Maks’ Maksimovic suggested a concept for a sports watch to his fellow co-founders, Albert Edelmann and Peter Nikolaus.
