55 million dollars is by any measure quite a bit of money. It can buy you the car collection of either Jay Leno or Ralph Lauren (your pick), one epic night in Vegas (making Steve Wynn a very happy man in the process) or eleven of the 2012 Hublot $5 Million Dollar Bangs. It can […]

With a reputation for being the “watchmaker’s watchmaker”, Jaeger-LeCoultre has certainly demonstrated a wide range of competencies in aspects of watchmaking ranging from movement innovations to the decorative arts. As a brand, it certainly stands alone in being able to fulfil any horological dream that one can care to conjure. Any encounter with the watches […]

There’s something beautiful about whimsical complications, the kind that purposely disregards the utilitarian function of a watch: that of telling time, in order to make a statement. Like the well regarded Hermès Arceau Le Temps Suspendu, the new Dressage L’Heure Masquée (literally “Time Hidden”) from the same brand continues their somewhat playful obsession, that of making the […]

Some watches have the ability to grab your heart and never let go, and the love becomes all the more intense when the watch reveals it’s magic only when you get closer. This was the curious experience I had with the Tudor FastRider Black Shield, that while having been in the market for close to a […]

Watchmaking Grandmasters Philippe Dufour, Kari Voutilenen, Laurent Ferrier and Roger Smith were in Singapore last year for a plenary session arranged by THE HOUR GLASS at the Paragon.

There’s a lot of postulation as to why suddenly a whole new generation of watch collectors, myself included, have become so fixated with vintage watches. To me, the charm of an over-half-a-century-old Rolex GMT or a nearly-40-year-old Patek Nautilus Ref. 3700/1A is that when you strap it to your wrist, you realize that, while time […]

For all its prosaic utility, the second-time-zone complication is a remarkably romantic function. On the surface, it is what it is: an indication of the time in a different location in the world, which allows for convenient reference when traveling. For frequent travelers, however, the second-time-zone function carries an additional emotional charge: it is an […]

The Roger Dubuis booth at SIHH last year was easily the most memorable of them all, featuring a huge golden eagle that towered over visitors, welcoming them into a cave like setting of medieval fantasies. Aptly conceived for 2013, which for Roger Dubuis was the “Year of the Excalibur”, this was a display that I […]

Linde Werdelin is not your average Haute Horlogerie brand. Their constant path towards innovation combined with a very personal customer approach has not only let to some amazing watches over the years, but was also resulted in a customer base that would make many other Haute Horlogerie-brands green of envy. The reason for this is […]

Then comes the modest Englishman. A devout follower of the late great George Daniels, Roger Smith is committed to make the entire watch, by hand, just as they did a hundred or more years ago. Rather elusive, as he is domicile in Isle of Man, but an effable gentleman. As he knew I had aRead More

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.

Pollution, overfishing, oil spills, climate change and acidification are all familiar terms, especially to those who are environmentally conscious. And yet because many don’t see what is happening under the water’s surface, perhaps most people tend not to be too overly concerned with oceanic issues. A new documentary entitled Plant Ocean aims to change all that. With support […]
