EDITOR’S PICK: It all started with a Big Bang! Now Hublot’s hero is a bit smaller
Editor’s note: Hublot’s heart beats to the rhythm of the in-house Unico movement. So it makes sense that their centrepiece collection, the Big Bang - with its heavily open-worked dial - is where the Art of Fusion brand shows it off. This year, they slimmed down the dimensions of their 2010-born Unico HUB 1242 movement, dubbing it … ContinuedThe post EDITOR’S PICK: It all started with a Big Bang!

HANDS-ON: Blue moon rising – Raymond Weil’s Maestro Moon Phase
Call me a romantic, but the moon phase complication is amongst my favourites.

Gavox Watches Review: The Roads Chronograph – A Road Trip Watch
The idea is to evoke the ethos of each drive while also being worn while driving on those roads. Each watch features a roadbook for the long distance drive it's associated with. Each roadbook features a list of all the places to see and experience on the road. But it's not a Gavox timepiece unless there's an element of technological practicality...

LIST: Birth year watches for millennials – 6 future classics
The idea of a ‘birth year’ watch is nothing new, though after a recent discussion I came to realise that it poses an interesting question.

Moritz Grossmann’s first automatic watch the ATUM Hamatic
Moritz Grossmann’s first automatic watch reveals the maison’s new approach to self-winding. It features a modern interpretation of an older-generation device: a pendulum mass, referred to as an automatic hammer mechanism. Christened ‘Hamatic’, this piece transforms automatic winding into a fascinating visual experience within a brand new 106.0 calibre. Compared with standard rotor-based systems, this automatic hammer system is a thorough rarity. It works by transferring power from a moving bi-directional hammer with a heavy gold head that sits on a fine stem.

Smaller and Better: The new Cartier Santos 2018
One of the most iconic watches by Cartier, the Santos needs no introduction. The origins of the Santos dates back to 1904 when Cartier first designed the watch to accompany aviator Santos Dumont on his intrepid flights. Funny as it seems, the Santos then bears the pedigree of a Pilot’s watch and is one of the earliest tool purpose wristwatches in history.
