The new Audemars Piguet Millenary Frosted Gold Philosophique challenges the conventional way of reading time with just one hand for the hours and minutes.

SJX Watches recently published an in-depth look at Seiko’s prodigious and fabled 9F Quartz movements, which are now in their 26th year of production. And there’s no question the 9F is a genuinely high-end movement that has taken decades of engineering to perfect. It’s actually a remarkable feat of timekeeping when you think about it like this: the 9F will never lose or gain more than 10 seconds a year … that’s an absurd level of accuracy, and it laughs in the figurative faces of any mechanical movement on the planet. Take into account that every single 9F is assembled and decorated by hand, and it’s pretty easy to understand why the high-precision quartz movement is found exclusively in Seiko’s top-of-the-range Grand Seiko models. Anyway, if you’re a fan of Seiko and Grand Seiko, or want to gain a better understanding of the engineering and production of Seiko’s lauded quartz movement, this in-depth article is definitely worth a read, and you can check it out right here.

Ulysse Nardin unveils a new version of its Marine Torpilleur to coincide with the annual Monaco Yacht Show (MYS). Renowned as the most prestigious superyacht show (to give you an idea of the kind of crowd it attracts the MYS offers a helicopter shuttle service), Ulysse Nardin will sail into Port Hercules for the event with a limited-edition Marine Torpilleur model. Capitalising on this high-profile event and the luxury-loving crowd it attracts, Ulysse Nardin showcases its latest Marine Torpilleur Monaco Yacht Show Limited Edition. Essentially the same case and chronometer-certified movement as the Torpilleur models introduced in 2017, the novelty here is the Grand Feu enamel dial and inscriptions relating to the MYS.
