Independent watchmaker Brellum just took the veil off its latest creation, the last limited edition model to be released by this young brand in 2022. It is primarily black, and it looks beautiful. The Pandial LE.3 DD DLC Chronometer comes black-tie dressed, and is an evolution of the black-and-white Pandial LE.2DD Chronometer. There was also […]
Black & gold livery on the F1 racetrack was the epitome of cool in the 1970s and 1980s and, judging by the number of watches decked out in this sleek, glamorous colour scheme, is still as appealing as it was in its heyday. So, when you take a legendary racetrack watch like the TAG Heuer […]
There are many watches that can be named iconic or emblematic. Each category has its cult watches – the Submariner for divers, the Speedmaster for racing chronographs and the Calatrava for dress watches. Few can rival the aura of the Type XX watches when it comes to pilot’s watches, specifically pilot’s chronographs. As we speak, […]

And TAG Heuer has gone the extra mile to turn the already quite expressive Carrera Chronograph Tourbillon into something that radiates the colours of the rainbow. Using a unique PVD coating technique, the base dial is given a cool rainbow-like appearance, which almost looks […]
Manometers, altimeters, tachometers, oil gauges and dashboard counters are François Moreau’s muses when it comes to designing watches for his Parisian-based Reservoir watch brand. The brand’s instrument-driven watches welcomed a more complicated chronograph model earlier this year. In true Reservoir style, the chronograph borrowed design elements from another instrument, this time associated with analogue musical […]
Before becoming a subsidiary of Swatch Group, Hamilton was a popular American brand with deep military roots and more than 500 cameo appearances on the silver screen. Making its debut in 1932 in the Hollywood movie Shanghai Express, Hamilton is often referred to as the Movie Brand. Dressed to the nines in sleek black PVD […]
This latest version of the Vacheron Constantin Overseas Chronograph in a pink gold case with a blue dial exudes a warmer and more luxurious vibe than other models in the current line-up. Admittedly, there is another pink gold model in the collection, but it has a more demure silver dial and just two strap options. […]
Founded by brothers Petter and Jakob Paulin, Oskar Pascal launched its very first watch just earlier this year. As an independent watchmaking company, it combines the best of both worlds perhaps; sleek Scandinavian design with Swiss-made mechanicals.
