There was a time, in the not so distant past, when people discredited Hublot for being too similar to Audemars Piguet. It was unpleasant, but it was not too difficult to see why. The design, the concept, and the execution were uncannily familiar. But things have changed . The new Hublot MP-05 “LaFerrari” is oneRead More

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 […]

As some of the readers may know, I am currently an Airman (not a pilot though) in the Republic of Singapore Air Force. Being a watch enthusiast, I tend to observe and interact with other airmen, and gaining an insight on the kind of watches that they are wearing. This sort of leads me to question the existenceRead More

You might not expect it but within Patek Philippe’s design department works a genuine and actually quite famous artist; Xavier Magaldi. This by itself might not come as such a surprise, but Magaldi is not into still life paintings or even creations of a more impressionistic nature, no, Magaldi is into street art! Though not […]

Automobile and horology have always been synonymous together; it is as though both of them shares an invisible but closely knotted bond since the day both of them crossed path. The L.U. Chopard, with a great provenance from the racing world, is no stranger to that too. And the Engine One Tourbillon is a culminationRead More

The world of horology is an interesting one, from masterful creations of movements to dials of every shape and size. We’d burn holes in our pockets to get that prized watch on our wrists and we’d know it was worth every single cent. But how wonderful it would be to have a watch to call your own […]

They are no strangers to each other; Jochen Benzinger teamed up with IWC to create for example the quite outrageous Portuguese Tourbillon Mystère Squelette. Outrageous in a sense that it simply makes you want to head straight to the marina, raise the main sail and set on a course to India, while parking yourself on […]

As a schmucky, self-proclaimed know-it-all who has never agreed with the results of ANY awards program – I stopped watching the Oscars because they infuriate me so much – the Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève is precisely the sort of affair that’s guaranteed to raise my blood pressure. I’m simply too opinionated, but at least […]

When one thinks of Audemars Piguet, one must surely also think of the Royal Oak and for good reason.

It is indeed breathtaking when trapeze artists perform their daring acts high above the crowds in the circus tent. No safety lines, just a full confidence in their own ability to perform on the edge of what is humanly possible.
