In 2019, Doxa celebrates their 130th anniversary and the 50th anniversary of one of their iconic watches, the Sub 200 T.GRAPH. At Baselworld, we had listed the reedition of the model as one of our favorite dive watches of the fair… with one regret. This limited edition was released in a series of 13 watches only in gold. Well, to our satisfaction, Doxa now releases a stainless steel limited edition of the model.
Normally when a watch company starts to talk about products for ‘a next generation’, the implicit message is: ‘run away now.’ But not this time. The Seiko 5 sports watch has existed for over 50 years, but like a G-Shock it has maintained its coolness. That achievement probably has to do with a conscious lack […]
Like all the seven watches presented over the past seven months to fête the Lange I, the Daymatic is dressed for the party in a white gold case with blue trimmings on the dial. As you know, the Saxon brand is celebrating the quarter-century of its foundation watch with not one but ten models. A […]
Because 90% of the population is right-handed, there’s a convention that watches have to be worn on the left wrist… And that explains why the crown is positioned at 3 o’clock (on most watches, of course).

Celebrating the 20th anniversary of the Aquanaut in 2017, Patek Philippe presented the Jumbo Ref. 5168G in white gold with a larger diameter of 42.2mm, the most Jumbo size of this family to date and the first one to be housed in a white gold case. The fashionable blue dial of the 2017 model now has a sibling with a cool khaki green dial and matching “tropical” rubber strap. In essence, the exact same watch as the 2017 model with a green strap and dial, the khaki green dial adds a safari/adventure/military mood to the watch underlining its mission as Patek’s everyday sports watch.
The TAG Heuer Carrera might be one of the best-known watches of the industry, it is hard to say that modern editions are on the elegant side. They are sporty, bold or can even be cool, but they don’t fly under the radar – this one, with the previous design, is a good example. The brand has, however, decided to add a new iteration with a more casual, slightly redesigned case and dial. Meet the new TAG Heuer Carrera Calibre 16 Chronograph.
As we’ve already mentioned in previous articles, this year German brand Junghans is celebrating the 100th anniversary of Bauhaus, the German school of design – which is closely related with the brand, and to its famed designer, Max Bill, resulting in minimalistic watches with excellent design. Following this commemorative collection, the brand introduces a special […]
The Galet Annual Calendar School Piece marks an important milestone in Laurent Ferrier’s career.

Unless you’ve been living in a cave without access to the outside world for the past few months, it is impossible that you’ve missed the trend for bronze watches. They are all over the place. And some look pretty cool. Still, there’s one important thing to know about bronze: it ages (that thing brands name […]
The 1815 Annual Calendar is the second complication of this genre in A. Lange & Söhne‘s current line-up. Following the launch of the Saxonia Annual Calendar in 2010 with an automatic movement and outsized date window, Lange came out with the 1815 manual-winding/analogue date Annual Calendar at the beginning of 2017. Two years might have […]
