Today, we are featuring one of the most talked about pieces from the 2014 Baselworld- the Tudor Heritage Ranger. The Ranger is a curious piece; it follows the design cue of the vintage Rolex Explorer, with four different strap variations. And the best part? It is one of the more affordable pieces from the sister brand of Rolex.Read More

How would you reinvent yourself to recreate something traditional? Ask Glycine. This company has managed to transform a conventional chronograph pusher into something that is extraordinary and fun!

Aside from the fact that the Bathyscape Flyback Chronograph is absolutely, unassailably, unequivocally, Steve-McQueen-in-ice-filled-underpants cool, it also represents a union of some of the most important technical achievements in horology.

Sure, I get it. There is an immediate emotional response to “top ten” lists. For the masochists, there is the list of the top ten hottest women on the planet who could put a serious beating on you. Topping this is former Olympian and UFC champ Ronda Rousey affectionately known as the “Arm Collector” for her penchant for snapping her opponents appendages.

“We live submerged at the bottom of an ocean of air.” –Evangelista Torricelli, 1644 It’s a dangerous thing to start a new watch company –in addition to an almost infinite number of ill-advised possible business goofs, standing out from the crowd enough for people to notice what you are doing, as well as consistently developing […]

While a lot of the attention on Patek Philippe at BaselWorld this year was focused (rightly so) on the new 5960 Annual Calendar in stainless steel (and speculation about what’s coming up for the 175th anniversary celebration later this year, about which Patek has so far managed the unlikely achievement of a total information blackout) […]

I typically associate DeLaneau as a jewellery watch company. Mea Culpa, they are not only about jewellery, but also about high horology, as evidenced by their Amazone 1608 collection of unique artwork pieces, with an interesting movement.

Francois Paul Journe. A talented watchmaker. I had the pleasure of meeting with FP way back when he was yet a nobody…and had just made his first tourbillon remontoir d’egalité.

What We Know For all the conversations about what to do when a dial is damaged, possibly fit for restoration, or a watch needs some repair, I don't recall many examples of watches with dials that come pre-repaired. That's essentially what Arsène Lippens has launched: a watch inspired by the Japanese craft of Sashiko, which artfully patches and repairs textiles (largely denim) to extend their lives and turn them into something beautiful. In collaboration with Pey van der Wel, a Dutch artist who runs SASHIKODENIM, the brand's new limited edition of 10 pieces is the second in its "Threads of Time" series celebrating textile crafts. The watch is a relatively straightforward release as an entire package: a 37.5mm by 9.9mm 316L stainless steel case housing a manually wound Sellita SW210-1b movement with a 48-hour power reserve. The case is water-resistant to 50 meters, with a solid caseback and a box dome anti-reflective crystal on the front side. The thickness largely comes from the depth required for the dial, which is the star of the show. The dial is made of denim, with 12 individual hour markers hand-stitched one thread wide through the dial, with a cross-hatch at 3, 6, 9, and 12. Of course, none of these dials are the same, and you could argue that some, including the one shown here, might not be perfectly aligned to the hour marker. But so be it. The watch celebrates a centuries-old handcraft and its beautifully imperfect nature. Of course, the watch comes with a denim s...
