Watch Hands Most of the evergreen watches evolve through time. Development of colors, watch hands, fonts, proportions and sizes. Often small changes, making the watch to morph from one to another reference(number). We could even say that multi-generation watches evolve through time like we do. They try to adapt to our taste and needs and improve […]

Straight from Arthur Ashe stadium in New York, Mr. Stanislas Wawrinka has taken the 2016 U.S. Open title, and he’s done so wearing an Audemars Piguet. Yes, he actually played the entirety of the tournament while wearing a 42mm Royal Oak Offshore Chronograph in steel. This is not insignificant – the 42mm Offshore is not a feather-weight tourbillon designed specifically for tennis like Nadal’s RM. Nope, this is a regular old Offshore chronograph.
Raul Pagès’ first wristwatch is simply designed but elaborately finished, and equipped with a carefully decorated vintage movement – a familiar formula that’s also found in work of Voutilainen, and more recently, Atelier de Chronometrie and Torsti Laine.
