The passion for music can run just as deep as the passion for watches, or anything else for that matter. I have yet to come across someone who absolutely dislikes all kinds of music, as there’s always something that resonates with you. Delbana captures the spirit of music with its Recordmaster, created to celebrate the […]
Of course, there were some more important new models presented by Rolex at Watches and Wonders 2023. The updated Daytona, moving to a 12xxxx generation, the titanium Yacht-Master 42 or a new dress watch, the convincing Perpetual 1908. Nevertheless, a pair of new models – to make it clear, colour and material updates on an […]
We reviewed Horage’s Lensman 1 a few months ago and were impressed with both the design and price of an in-house, Swiss-made tourbillon. It had a bit of a camera theme with laser-etched numbers on the caseband mimicking an aperture ring, a fixed bezel resembling a focusing ring, an onyx stone inset in the crown […]
The Rado Captain Cook collection is a skilful blend of retro vibes and high-tech materials. Ok, it’s also available in more conventional stainless steel or bronze but the high-tech ceramic models will always be a bit extra special. It displays Rado’s industry-leading know-how of the material and the brand’s ability to apply it to any […]
The Hermès H08 collection debuted in 2021 with sporty-looking, relaxing time-and-date watches for daily wear, distinguished by the compelling cases with cushion shape, rounded edges and short lugs – and the choice of materials. The Hermès watch division refreshed the series this year with much sportier-looking models with bright colours. Also, it introduced a sporty-chic […]
Ten years… That’s how long the partnership between Swiss watchmaker IWC Schaffhausen and Mercedes-AMG Petronas Formula One Team is… And this connection has seen the creation of multiple watches, either dedicated to the world of motorsport in general, to the pilots of the team (Lewis Hamilton first and foremost), to its boss or to the […]
Hamilton has a solid reputation for its military-inspired watches covering land, air and sea. As a purveyor of accurate, robust watches to the American military since 1914, Hamilton’s timepieces have seen their fair share of action. The Navy was one of Hamilton’s biggest customers relying on the brand’s marine chronometers and later supplying water-resistant watches […]
One of the best marketing tools for a watch brand is an exciting, real-life action story. Whether providing field, dive, or even marine chronometer watches for US Army and Navy servicemen or appearing in cameos on the silver screen, many of Hamilton‘s historical watches have seen their fair share of action. The Frogman, Hamilton’s tough […]
Except for a couple of watches that stood out from the crowd, such as the Wristmaster with the in-house micro-rotor movement, the French brand Yema is all about utilitarian, professionally oriented watches. The Superman dive watch, the Navygraf for navy crew or the Flygraf for pilots… They are all built for a specific mission. However, with […]
Brellum is a brand apart… An independent company run by Sebastien Muller, it only sells watches directly to customers, caps its production to 299 pieces a year, and only makes mechanical and COSC-certified watches. However, it’s not about ultra-high-end indie timepieces but pilot and racing chronographs. Offering great value for money and impeccable execution, it […]
