Romain Jerome occupies a tidy little niche in watchmaking with its “Generational Icons” line of watches that feature themes from pop culture, most famously Batman. The line tends to emphasise the 1980s – the DeLorean-DNA watch exemplifies that- smartly catering to those who grew up in that decade and who can now afford pricey watches. With Pac-Man […]
The Sky Dweller is currently the most complicated watch in the Rolex catalog. The watch, introduced in Baselworld 2012, is available in Everose and White Gold which we review here, but also in Yellow Gold.

You may have noticed we’re all about the Bell & Ross AeroGT collection this week. After all, who didn’t spend their childhood creating jet-inspired cars, and imagining a world in which they could exist. Seriously, how much fun must B&R have had working on the AeroGT – and extending the concept out into two very cool watches.…
Franck Muller was at a point in time an interesting brand to read about, for its innovative case shapes and unique complications; to name a few, the Crazy Hours, Secret Hours and the Giga tourbillon.
