Hublot is certainly most known for its luxury sports watches with shaped cases, fusion of material and integrated straps. There is, however, another collection at Hublot that we somehow tend to overlook, a collection of shaped watches, with a barrel-like case, the Spirit Of Big Bang. Part of the 2020 novelties presented in Dubai, Hublot […]
Zenith has multiple facets, which includes, of course, superb vintage re-editions of past glories equipped with the El Primero movement. But Zenith is also a laboratory for LVMH when it comes to technologies and design, meaning highly technical movements and bold designs.

No watch enthusiast can overlook Bvlgari’s hegemony of the ultra-thin category. The formula is simple: 5 stunning watches, 5 world records, 1 great design.

Part of the show is a rather good-looking, modern and stealth version of […]
LVMH’s first round of 2020 watchmaking novelties is being unveiled in the luxurious Dubai Bvlgari Hotel today. So what could be more fitting that a quick peek at the highlight of Bvlgari’s watchmaking releases: the Serpenti Seduttori Tourbillon.
