Black Bay, Black Bay 58 and now, Black Bay 54. Tudor continues to expand its signature dive watch collection… by reducing it again. The BB is typically a watch that lives with its times, a watch that follows the trends. When it was first presented, back in 2012, the original Black Bay Burgundy watch was […]
Together with the chronograph, I do believe that the combination of a dive watch with a traveller’s function, a.k.a a GMT complication, makes for some of the most attractive and practical watches. In short, it’s your go-anywhere, do-anything kind of watch. And not only for summer but for any time you want to be a […]
Like Cyndi Lauper’s smash 1983 hit, watch designers at Maurice Lacroix have decided that watches “just want to have fun”. Probably more in line with the upcoming summer season, the Aikon Master Grand Date, with its off-centred dial, big date and exposed balance wheel, gets a blast of colour. Available in four new eye-catching colours, […]
Not everybody likes their watches served on the rocks, and it’s evident that Piaget has been listening closely to market trends. With the return to more compact case sizes that swing it both ways, the Piaget Polo Date 36mm sheds its diamond-set indices and returns with a deep midnight blue dial and the relaxed sporty-chic […]
A complex, delicate device that aims at counteracting the negative effects of gravity on the regulating organ of a watch (and an invention of Genius A.L. Breguet), the tourbillon is often considered one of the grails of watchmaking, together with the perpetual calendar or the rattrapante chronograph. Being a complex assembly that requires skills and […]
Alpina was created to craft strong, robust watches capable of resisting the challenging environment of the Alps. Inspired by this vision, Alpina specializes in rugged watches for outdoor use, as we’ve seen with their latest flagship collection – the Alpiner Extreme. As the brand has renewed its partnership with the Freeride World Tour for the […]
The Streamliner collection marked H. Moser & Cie‘s incursion into the luxury sports watch segment in 2020, represented by an impressive Flyback Chronograph. With its fluid and sophisticated design, the Streamliner is a far cry from the usual suspects dominating the upper echelons of luxury sports watches. Now a fully-fledged collection, Streamliners range from straightforward […]
Independent watchmaker Czapek launched its first luxury sports watch – the Antarctique – with an in-house movement in 2020, with the inaugural Terre Adélie edition. Sporting different dial colours and textures and two case sizes, the 40.5mm edition of the Antarctique has been selected by Collective Horology for its fourth collaboration watch. The turquoise enamel […]
When looking at the brand’s presence and the already extensive collection it proposes, it is hard to believe that Norqain was founded only 5 years ago. Indeed, the brand was established in 2018 and has grown to become more than just a newcomer since then. Only 2 years after its inception, Norqain announced partnering with […]
The Octo Finissimo collection has been the talk of the town for the past few years at Bulgari, and for many reasons. Finissimo watches broke several thinness records and grabbed public attention and four GPHG prizes, all in a relatively short time. Still, in the segment destined for men, Bulgari offers much more than ultra-thin, […]
