Some time back, I was having dinner with a few friends at a restaurant. Midway through a meal, a mate of mine named Joel yanked out a curious and vintage looking thing from his pocket. It was round, shiny, and had a chain attached to it. “Wait, isn’t that a… pocket watch?!” I exclaimed. That wasRead More

In 2010, Panerai created an instant success by offering the Luminor Submersible in an ancient and beautiful material closely linked with the sea: bronze. The gleaming cases began life sharing a similar appearance, but age and use would act on each to create a unique patina. This year Panerai surprises us with another groundbreaking material, though […]

Watch brands often only have a few different collections in their line-up. Of course within these collections a lot of different models reside. This keeps a brand recognizable, the DNA strong, and makes it easy for consumers to maneuver around. Every once in a while though an evolution of existing collections won’t do and a […]

While it revives the 19th century codes of elegance and virtuosity, the Master Grande Tradition line by Jaeger-LeCoultre first and foremost reflects the spirit of this brilliant age. The latter was characterised by a distinctive fervour nurtured by the fact that anything that was mechanically measurable could now be displayed. Complications were associated in waysRead More

The IWC Portugieser Tourbillon Mystère Rétrograde combines the magic of a floating tourbillon with the logic of a date hand that reverts to its starting position and the power of a 7-day in-house calibre.

One of the most unusual and technically intriguing watches that I’ve seen so far this year at the 2015 edition of the SIHH is the Zeitwerk Minute Repeater. The Zeitwerk Minute Repeater is actually not Lange’s first minute repeater –that distinction goes to the Lange Grand Complication, which is a grand et petite sonnerie, minute […]

Today was a great day for the ladies at the SIHH. It started at Parmigiani with a beautiful Tonda skeleton with an opaque dial. It seemed a little counter-productive to spend all that time polishing and angling to then hide the movement, but strangely enough the lace-like silhouette of the skeleton movement below the dial […]

IWC listens to its collectors and have shrunk the yacht club chrono. It is now 43mm instead of the 45mm it once was. A great move by the brand by any standards.

On its 260th Anniversary, Vacheron Constantin decided to launch a new collection called Harmony. This collection consists of seven models, and each of them are limited in production.

There is hardly anything more impressive in the world of watchmaking then a Grande Complication. All the skill and know-how of a brand incorporated in one single piece, resulting in a watch that can and has almost everything. These watches are as prestigious as they are rare, not only to their owners but also to […]

There is no such thing as a conventional Parmigiani, and there should never be something as a conventional Parmigiani. It doesn’t suit the brand. Parmigiani is all about constantly developing the art of classical watchmaking to define current and future expression of its art. With SIHH 2015 just around the corner, Parmigiani introduces a new […]

When it comes to haute horlogerie, Arnold & Son is often a brand that is overlooked by many purveyors. There is little wonder, since the British watchmaker is often overshadowed by their more illustrious counterparts like Patek Philippe. However, that does not stop them from making wonderful pieces, such as the Time Pyramid and DBS. ThisRead More

When a watch has the word traditional in it and it is a Piaget you can count that it will also feature a gold bracelet. Although a watchmaker long before venturing into the field of jewelry making, Piaget has been merging both crafts for longer than half a century. This has always been Piaget’s strength; […]

The exception to this rule is Linde Werdelin’s latest edition to the line-up; the Oktopus Double Date Carbon – Green. The name actually says it all; […]

Breguet’s claims to fame are many, to put it mildly –his list of firsts, and improvements on the designs of others, is one of the longest in the entire history of horology (his work on and experiments with escapements alone would keep a bevy of grad students in horological history busy for years, if there […]

At first glance, luxury watch brand Hublot may appear to have little in common with the world of professional poker. Think for a bit though, and the parallels become apparent.

Stephen Forsey was in New York in December to introduce the new GMT Black –a black DLC coated, titanium-cased version of the Greubel Forsey GMT –and over lunch, he told me that one of his greatest sources of frustration was the extent to which Greubel Forsey watches seem to constantly be discussed in the context […]

We live in an age defined by portable computing, but nailing wearable computing has –at least so far –proven to be much more elusive. While there has been a lot of soul-searching occasioned by things like Google Glass and so-called smart watches (which, thus far, have been more notable for interesting failures than resounding successes, […]

“Design icon” is among the most abused bits of hyperbole in the Press Release Writer’s Guide, yet in a few rare instances, it actually applies. The IWC Portugieser is such an instance.
