SIHH 2017: Introducing the A. Lange & Söhne 1815 Annual Calendar

While far from being the most complicated watch introduced by A. Lange & Söhne at SIHH 2017 – the honour goes to the Tourbograph Perpetual Pour le Mérite – the 1815 Annual Calendar is functional and affordable, relatively speaking. Being hand-wound and lacking a big date, the 1815 Annual Calendar a different take on a complication already offered […]

SIHH 2017 – Audemars Piguet Introduces the Refreshed Royal Oak Chronograph

The best way to ruin an icon watch is certainly to deeply redesigned it. It seems that Audemars Piguet has this statement massively printed everywhere in the design department. Don’t change the Royal Oak, as you’ll certainly end with a result that is not as good at what you already have. Still, the market is a sucker for novelties and some fresh air is needed, from time to time. With this in mind, Audemars Piguet Introduces the Refreshed Royal Oak Chronograph at the SIHH 2017. So no big move, just some tiny little evolutions to make it rather appealing in the end, including a two-tone dial design.

Hublot Big Bang UNICO Magic Sapphire Watch

About a year ago exactly, Hublot debuted their very first Hublot Big Bang UNICO Sapphire watch. It was and, I believe, still is the most affordable high-end sapphire-cased watch around. Today, Hublot releases a brand new sapphire crystal-based Big Bang, and it’s easily my favorite yet with the Hublot Big Bang UNICO Magic Sapphire.

Hublot Big Bang UNICO GMT ‘Dual Time Zone’ Watch

For the first time, Hublot releases a GMT watch in the Big Bang collection with an in-house movement, and I have to say, it is pretty slick. The 2017 Hublot Big Bang UNICO GMT was developed with utility and practicality in mind, and as a logical extension of where Hublot Big Bang watches with in-house movements are going.
