Where the Radar, Altimeter, and GMT Compass reinterpreted cockpit displays, the Helipad stages an entire scene: a helicopter suspended in a stationary hover directly above its landing pad, its rotor blades doing the work of a seconds hand. It's the most theatrical execution yet of a collection built on the idea that legibility and imagination don't have to be opposing forces. Things to Know About the WatchLimited to 500 pieces, the ref. BR03A-HE-CE/SRB features a micro-blasted black ceramic case measuring 41 mm, a material choice drawn straight from aerospace engineering for its scratch resistance and low weight, finished in a matte tone that keeps the tool-watch identity intact. Case thickness is a controlled 10.60 mm, with water resistance to 100 meters and a sapphire crystal treated with anti-reflective coating on both sides. Hours are indicated by the yellow ring, minutes are read off the nose of the helicopter fuselage, and seconds are handled by the rotor blades spinning at the center of the dial—a genuinely clever bit of engineering that turns a standard three-hand calibre into a small mechanical performance without adding complexity to the movement itself. The dial's yellow accents aren't just styling—they're a direct nod to air-rescue color coding, reinforced by SuperLumiNova X2 with green nighttime emission across the yellow zones and main indexes. Two straps are included: bright yellow rubber for a sportier read, and a black ultra-resilient synthetic fabric strap for a more military tone, both paired with a matte black PVD micro-blasted pin buckle. The MovementThe animation is built on the BR-CAL.327, an automatic three-hand movement adapted specifically to carry this dial concept. Hours are told by a black rotating disc representing the helipad itself, its yellow lumed index doing double duty as both hour marker and visual anchor. Power reserve sits at 54 hours. Summary & PriceIt's worth noting what the Helipad is not: it isn't a new complication, and Bell & Ross doesn't pretend otherwise. What's happening here is entirely in the display architecture—the movement underneath is a conventional automatic three-hand base. The achievement is in how convincingly that base has been reimagined to tell a story on the dial, which is really the throughline connecting every Flight Instruments release back to the original BR-01. The BR-03 Helipad is a strong, confident addition to that lineage—playful without sacrificing the legibility that's supposed to be non-negotiable in this collection, and specific enough in its aviation reference points to feel earned rather than gimmicky.Sticker Price USD 4,800.

The new BR-05 GMT Green Steel sits at the center of that push. It's a fitting choice for the BR-05 line, which since its 2019 debut has taken the brand's signature circle-within-a-square case and moved it off the tarmac and onto the street. The bracelet fuses directly into the case, the case reads as one continuous shape on the wrist, and the collection has grown accordingly: 42 mm chronographs, 41 mm GMT references, and a run of 40 mm editions that round out the lineup. The GMT Green Steel is the newest expression of that architecture, and the first to bring this particular shade of green into the GMT family. Things to Know About the WatchThe color itself is the story here, and it's a more considered one than a simple green dial suggests. Bell & Ross moved away from a primary green in favor of a sage tone with silver undertones, built through a three-step process using a sunray-brushed metal plate, a tinted green varnish, and a final glossy clear coat that deepens the color and protects it. Therefore, the dial shifts in character depending on the light hitting it rather than reading as one flat hue.That dial sits inside a 41 mm stainless steel case, a size Bell & Ross has positioned deliberately between the 40 mm BR-05 Auto and the 42 mm BR-05 Chronograph, and the applied Baignoire-style indices and skeletonized hour, minute, and 24-hour hands are filled with white SuperLumiNova X1 that glows green in the dark. The watch is offered in two variations with a stainless steel bracelet or on a matching green rubber strap. The GMT function is handled through an independently adjustable arrow-shaped hand, quick-set apart from the main hour hand, with a two-tone green-and-silver-grey peripheral flange graduated over 24 hours to separate day from night at a glance in the second time zone. It's a case built for travel: a screw-down crown with crown guard, a sapphire case back showing off the oscillating weight, anti-reflective sapphire up front, and 100 meters of water resistance. The MovementPower comes from the automatic Calibre BR-CAL.325-1 with a 54-hour power reserve. On the Wrist & PriceThe BR-05 GMT Green Steel doesn't reinvent what the GMT model has been doing since its introduction; it simply recolors it, and does so with more finish work than the phrase "green dial" implies. Between the sunray-and-varnish dial treatment and the 41 mm case's position as the collection's built-in middle ground, it reads as Bell & Ross using color to reintroduce a watch it already had right, rather than chasing a trend for its own sake.Sticker Price USD 5,800 on a bracelet and USD 5,300 on a strap.

Hands-on Review with Live Photos. Bell & Ross has taken a bold evolutionary step with the new BR-X3 collection, transforming the iconic BR-03 foundation into something more advanced. The ‘X’ designation carries significant weight in the brand's nomenclature—borrowed from aerospace project code names, it signals experimental excellence and cutting-edge performance.The BR-X3 introduces two compelling variants: the lightweight BR-X3 Black Titanium and the aerospace-inspired BR-X3 Blue Steel. Both represent the most advanced level of sophistication in Bell & Ross's professional range, featuring revolutionary multi-layer case construction that combines materials, colors, and finishes in an entirely innovative approach. For this hands-on review we will focus on the Blue Steel version in blue. Things to Know About the WatchWhat immediately distinguishes the BR-X3 is its multi-component, multi-layered 41 x 13.3 mm ‘sandwich-style’ case construction. This innovative architecture maintains the signature ‘circle in a square’ aesthetic while introducing enhanced structural integrity through two titanium or steel plates that secure all components together. Four screws ensure robustness by securing the plates, middle case, bezel, and case back—a design that's both lighter and more resistant than traditional construction. The Blue Steel variant channels royal inspiration through its sophisticated blue color palette. The satin-finished and polished steel case incorporates anodized blue aluminum for the bezel ring and structural columns—a direct homage to Apollo 11 crew flight suit connection systems that space enthusiasts will immediately recognize. The three-plate dial construction features a blue sunray varnished base with polished rhodium-plated applique and micro-blasted rhodium-plated insert. The X-shaped metallic decoration receives polished edges for refinement while maintaining micro-blasted surfaces for technical character. Skeletonized rhodium-plated hands and polished ‘Baignoire-style’ indices—that are embedded into the minute-graduated flange—filled with white SuperLumiNova X1 ensure exceptional legibility through green emission properties.The X-shaped metallic applique frames the date window at 3 o'clock—showing three dates—and power reserve indicator at 9 o'clock for a power reserve of 70 hours—almost three days. Anti-reflective sapphire crystal protects the dial, with sapphire case back—black-tinted on the Titanium model—showcasing the movement with its skeletonized oscillating weight. A blue openworked rubber strap pairs with a satin-finished, polished steel pin buckle that matches the case treatment, creating perfect visual harmony. The MovementBoth variants house the calibre BR-CAL.323 calibre, an automatic COSC movement exclusively developed by Kenissi for Bell & Ross. Operating at 28,800 vph, the movement provides an impressive 70-hour power reserve while carrying COSC certification and Bell & Ross's confidence-inspiring 5-year warranty. On the Wrist & PriceDespite their sophisticated construction, both models maintain 100-meter water resistance for professional-grade durability. The combination of advanced materials, innovative case architecture, and COSC movement creates instruments that genuinely advance professional timekeeping while honoring Bell & Ross's aviation heritage. The BR-X3 collection successfully demonstrates that contemporary watchmaking can embrace cutting-edge materials and construction techniques while maintaining traditional values. On the wrist, this is Bell & Ross at its best.Sticker Price USD 6,800. For more info on Bell & Ross click here.

Where that piece stacked a tourbillon and micro-rotor into the same square manufacture movement, this iteration removes the tourbillon and lands at a significantly lower price point—without abandoning the structural proposition that makes the BR-X3 line worth examining seriously. Things to Know About the WatchThe 40 mm BR-03 case does not simply house the movement: it is the movement's primary structural plate. A single machined steel block serves simultaneously as the case middle and the supporting structure for the calibre's bridges. An upper and lower sapphire crystal complete the enclosure—three components total. The result is full bilateral transparency and a watch that reads as unmediated mechanics under glass, at a total case thickness of 9 mm.The movement is semi-skeletonized, but the material removal follows a structured grid rather than the arabesque forms common to the category. Vertical and horizontal bridges intersect across the square plate in a composition that creative director Bruno Belamich references to Mondrian and Charlotte Perriand—geometric abstraction and modernist architecture, respectively. Finishing runs monochrome throughout: brushed bridges, microblasted mainplates, polished bevels, each surface differentiated by texture rather than color. Timekeeping is hours and minutes only, via a pair of photoluminescent central hands. No seconds hand is present—the running seconds are made legible instead by the exposed oscillating balance wheel in the lower right quadrant. The MovementAt the heart of the BR-X3 Micro-Rotor is the calibre BR-CAL.390, an automatic movement with an in-plane micro-rotor—meaning the rotor sits within the movement's thickness rather than above it. This keeps the mechanics fully legible from both sides and contributes directly to the 9 mm case depth. Power reserve is 48 hours, and the movement carries a 5-year warranty. Summary & PriceLimited to 99 pieces and without a tourbillon, the BR-X3 Micro-Rotor occupies an unusual position: technically more accessible than its predecessor, yet architecturally uncompromising. The case-calibre fusion is a genuine construction decision with real consequences for how the watch reads and for collectors who place weight on structural integration over outright complication, the argument is a sound one.Sticker Price USD 22,500.

This year marks a significant upgrade as the most ambitious watch in Bell & Ross's lineup gets the Patrouille de France treatment. The BR-X3 is the most technically sophisticated watch in the brand’s lineup, and, at 250 pieces, it is the most ambitious chapter in this aerial watchmaking saga yet. Things to Know About the WatchThe BR-X3 inherits the "circle within a square" architecture of the BR-03 but advances it through a multi-layer case construction in polished-satin steel—41 mm wide and 13.30 mm thick—, accented by a bezel ring and structural columns in blue anodized aluminum with a micro-blasted finish—light, resistant, precise, and unmistakably aeronautical. The three-plate dial construction layers a matte black base, a blue-and-white skeletonized applique, and a matte black insert—evoking the specific blues of the Alpha Jet, the squadron helmet, and the flight suit. The black dial features a blue hourglass silhouette, and the central seconds hand's counterweight is shaped as an Alpha Jet silhouette; the power reserve indicator at 9 o'clock runs tricolor in blue, white, and red for the colors of the French flag; and the squadron's "Diamond" formation insignia anchors the dial at 6 o'clock. Rhodium-plated Baignoire-style indices and skeletonized hands are filled with Super-LumiNova BGW9 Grade X1. A date indicator at 3 o’clock completes the design. Two strap options ship with the piece: an open-worked black rubber strap and an ultra-resilient sky-blue nylon synthetic fabric strap that mirrors the Patrouille de France flight suit. The nylon fabric strap is equipped with velcro closures, turning the watch into a very official flight squadron tool watch. The MovementPowering the BR-X3 Patrouille de France is calibre BR-CAL.323, a movement developed for Bell & Ross by Kenissi. It is COSC chronometer-certified, automatic self-winding, and delivers a 70-hour power reserve. Bell & Ross backs it with a five-year warranty—a meaningful commitment in this segment. The sapphire case back displays a custom metalized Patrouille de France logo. On the Wrist & PriceThe BR-X3 wears as a substantial but purposeful pilot's watch. Water resistance is rated to 100 meters. At its price point, the BR-X3 Patrouille de France is the most complete expression of this almost six-year partnership.Sticker Price USD 8,100.

The Rotondo UltraFino Gold, the collection's first precious-metal execution, restates that argument in warmer terms. Where the titanium original spoke in cool technical grey, this version pushes 18K rose gold directly against black PVD, black rubber, and a black lacquered crown—a contrast Bianchet calls Dynamic Tension rather than ornamentation for its own sake. Things to Know About the WatchThe round case measures 39.5 mm across and just 8.9 mm thick, with case, rotor, and bracelet all in solid 18K rose gold. A black rubber gasket beneath the bezel is a running Bianchet signature, and the dial is fully openworked, exposing the flying tourbillon edge-to-edge. Water resistance holds at 100 meters. An integrated quick-release system lets the watch swap between the rose gold bracelet paired with a black rubber strap, or a dual black-and-white rubber strap set, without tools. The MovementThe engine is Bianchet's in-house Calibre UR01, an extra-thin automatic flying tourbillon built entirely in Grade 5 titanium, measuring 3.85 mm thick and weighing less than 8 grams. Bianchet rates it for shock resistance up to 5,000 G—bold for any manufacture, more so for a young independent one on its first gold reference, and a figure with no independent testing behind it yet, so it belongs in the brand-stated column for now. Power reserve runs past 60 hours. The rotor carries the rose gold theme inward: a solid 18K rose gold winding mass visible through the skeletonized architecture, set against black PVD-treated titanium bridges. Field Notes & PricingThe Rotondo UltraFino Gold doesn't reinvent what Bianchet has been building—it restates it in a warmer register, letting rose gold argue with black PVD and rubber rather than yield to it. For a young independent maison staking its identity on the flying tourbillon, that kind of disciplined variation matters more than novelty alone—though claims like 5,000 G shock resistance are ones this publication will want to see independently confirmed before taking at face value.Sticker Price CHF 119,500—approx USD 148,000.

Bianchet and Maserati have come together to unveil the UltraFino Maserati Flying Tourbillon ahead of Watches and Wonders 2026 in Geneva, where we will see it in person and report on the ground. This flying tourbillon is limited to 100 pieces and timed to mark the centenary of the iconic Trident emblem that first appeared on the Tipo 26 at the 1926 Targa Florio. This collaboration follows the failed collaboration between Audemars Piguet and Maserati two decades ago. Things to Know About the WatchThe design vocabulary is rooted in the Maserait MCPURA's birdcage-design wheel architecture. The open-worked skeleton dial translates the car's triple split-spoke layout into a trident motif at the dial level — a structural reference rather than a decorative flourish. View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize The AI Aqua Rainbow finish, which debuted on the Maserati MCPURA at the 2025 Goodwood Festival of Speed as part of Maserati's Fuoriserie Collezione Futura program, carries through to the watch dial and accents the rubber seam running along the case edge, generating the same prismatic character on the wrist that it achieves on bodywork at speed. The case itself is constructed in high-density carbon fiber with vulcanized rubber, keeping the total weight to just 36 grams without a strap, a figure that makes the 9.9 mm total thickness of the watch feel even more relevant. Grade 5 titanium bridges and main plate mirror the torsional rigidity of MCPURA's carbon-fiber chassis. The hand-finished crown is protected by integrated carbon crown-guards, both the bezel and case back are fitted with glare-proof sapphire crystal, and water resistance reaches 50 meters. Two strap options are offered: an integrated high-density carbon fiber bracelet and a natural vulcanized rubber strap with a titanium folding clasp. The edition of 100 pieces is keyed to the Trident centenary, each individually numbered and produced at Bianchet's La Chaux-de-Fonds atelier. The MovementThe Bianchet UT01 calibre drives the UltraFino Maserati: a hand-finished automatic flying tourbillon beating at 21,600 vph with a 60-hour power reserve. Every component of the movement is finished by hand: sand-blasted, satin-brushed, polished, and hand-beveled across the bridges, main plate, and tourbillon cage. The suspended mainspring barrel eliminates the traditional ratchet wheel to recover vertical space, enabling the movement to achieve a remarkable 3.85 mm thickness while maintaining that 60-hour reserve. The tourbillon cage in Grade 5 titanium measures just 2.66 mm thin and houses a large screw balance wheel with variable inertia, preserving visual presence without compromising functional margins. In a nod to the MCPURA's suspension engineering, dedicated shock-absorbing solutions are integrated at both the balance wheel and structural levels, enabling the movement to withstand forces of 5,000 Gs. Total component count is 225 with 29 jewels. On the Wrist & PriceThe new Bianchet UltraFino Maserati is the kind of collaboration that earns its concept: two brands sharing Italian DNA—as Rodolfo Festa Bianchet has Italian roots—, a genuine shared commitment to lightweight materials, hand-finishing, and visible mechanical architecture. One hundred pieces is the right number for scarcity without being performatively so, and built to a standard that justifies the Bianchet name on the dial alongside Maserati’s Trident.Sticker Price CHF 65,500—approx USD 83,000.

This new watch is built on the brand's Racing Carbon platform and produced in a series of just five pieces, exclusive to the team, with a limited edition to be offered for sale to follow.The CVSTOS Juncos Hollinger Racing Team Edition is the kind of watch that only independents would even attempt with an unapologetically bold tonneau case executed in forged carbon, blacked out from every angle, and finished with the unmistakable acid green of the team's identity. The watch was hand-delivered by Stefan Kunz from CVSTOS at the legendary Indy 500 Race—special report on our experience there to follow—and presented to the team, including its owner, Ricardo Juncos; its principals, Dave O’Neill and Steven Sudler; and their driver from the Netherlands, Rinus Veekay. Things to Know About the WatchThe CVSTOS x Juncos Hollinger Racing Team Edition uses the brand's signature tonneau-shaped Challenge case measuring 53.7 x 41 mm, here executed in forged carbon paired with a black PVD-treated steel structure. The forged carbon construction on the bezel and case middle delivers the swirled, marbled topography that has become a CVSTOS signature, while the all-black architecture is broken only by the polished black PVD screw heads finished with the CVSTOS Technology pattern. The semi-skeletonized dial pushes the racing brief without restraint, with a black PVD coating throughout, black cutout numerals at 12, 10, and 2; and acid green skeletonized hands, minute track, and running-seconds subdial with three-spoke indicator—details that reference the black and green main livery of the Juncos Hollinger No. 76 car and also the colors of the racing team. At 6 o'clock, the petite seconde indication takes center stage, with a discreet round date aperture. Water resistance is rated to 100 meters, and the watch is equipped with a black rubber strap and a black PVD-coated double-folding deployant clasp that completes the blacked-out build. View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize The MovementPowering the Juncos Hollinger Racing Team Edition is the CVSTOS CVS410 calibre, a self-winding automatic mechanical movement here finished in black PVD treatment to match the case theme. The movement beats at 28,800 vph, and delivers a power reserve of 42 hours. Functions include hours, minutes, seconds, and date at 6 o’clock, and the titanium oscillating weight has been skeletonized to resemble an Indy Car wheel. The display case back in black PVD steel features engravings around the perimeter that include "JUNCOS HOLLINGER 76," "TEAM LIMITED EDITION X/5". On the Wrist With five pieces total, the CVSTOS x Juncos Hollinger Racing Team Edition is one of the most exclusive motorsport partnership watches released this year, and it is a textbook example of how CVSTOS approaches collaboration—architectural conviction first, livery treatment second, with the result reading as a fully resolved CVSTOS rather than just a decal exercise on someone else's canvas—in this case the mirrors in the car.

Debuting the new in-house manual-wound 1967 MC calibre, this is not simply a more open version of an existing reference— it is a reconsideration of what a skeletonized Crash can actually be, and in platinum, it couldn’t get any better. Things to Know About the WatchThe distinction between this Squelette and its skeletonized predecessor is meaningful. The earlier open-worked Crash was architecturally cautious in the best sense: its bridges were arranged to preserve a dial-like reading experience, keeping legibility and visual order intact. The Squelette abandons that restraint entirely. Material has been removed far more aggressively, and the result is something that reads less like a watch with an open dial and more like a piece of kinetic sculpture that happens to tell time. Roman numerals are integrated directly into the movement's architecture rather than printed or applied, which means they exist as structural elements—they belong to the watch in a way that feels entirely intentional. The principal bridges are finished by hand with tremblage, a hammered surface technique that introduces texture and catches light in ways that photography rarely does justice. Production is limited to 150 pieces, which, given the collector's appetite for anything Crash-related, will make acquisition a serious exercise in patience and positioning. The MovementThe manual-wound 1967 MC is a shaped caliber, not as a stylistic afterthought, but as the organizing principle of the entire watch. The movement is built around the Crash's distinctive asymmetric case, meaning its architecture follows the form's contours rather than fighting them. For a manufacture known for its shaped movements, this represents a genuine development rather than a repackaging of existing work. On the Wrist & PriceOn the wrist, the Crash Squelette will be a polarizing object in the best possible way. The absence of a conventional dial means the eye has nowhere settled to land—it moves across bridges, numerals, and open space in equal measure. For collectors who have always worn the Crash as a statement, this takes that proposition considerably further.The Crash Squelette is among the most committed expressions of the reference to date, and its 150-piece limitation will ensure it remains exactly that.Sticker Price Upon Request.

The original, launched in 2002 and discontinued around 2012, drew its identity from the aerodynamic lines of 1950s sports cars: a tonneau-shaped case, a boldly integrated crown, and a dial that borrowed its visual energy from the instrument cluster. That DNA is intact here. What Cartier has done is subtract the clunkiness and sharpen everything else. Things to Know About the WatchThe new Roadster is offered in two sizes: Large at 38.8 mm wide and Medium at 34.9 mm wide. Both are about 10 mm in thickness, and both are water-resistant to 100 meters. Material choices inlcude steel, two-tone with steel and 18K yellow gold, and 18k yellow gold. The white dial is standard across the collection, with one exception: the blue PVD dial is exclusive to the Large steel reference equipped with a matching rubber strap. The dial retains the hallmarks: applied Roman numerals, concentric grooves on the chapter ring, a chemin de fer minutes track, sword-shaped hands, and the hidden Cartier signature at the VII marker. The bracelet now has shorter, more ergonomic links with the central links finished with a polished surface contrasting with brushed outer links and the watches are equipped with Cartier's QuickSwitch system for easy strap changes. All new Roadsters ship with an alligator strap, while the blue dial reference comes with a navy rubber strap.

The new Alpine Eagle 41 XPS doubles down on that identity with a second ultra-thin edition, this time featuring a "Mountain Glow" champagne dial and a redesigned bracelet that addresses the one area where its predecessor still had room to grow. Things to Know About the WatchThe case remains 41mm in diameter and just 8mm thick, crafted entirely in Chopard's proprietary Lucent Steel—an 80% recycled alloy produced through an advanced remelting process that yields a material with gold-like luster, hypoallergenic properties akin to surgical steel, and exceptional hardness. The new "Mountain Glow" dial achieves its warm champagne tone through galvanic treatment, featuring a stamped, radiating pattern modeled on an eagle's iris. Applied ethical white gold hour-markers and hands are coated with Grade X1 Super-LumiNova® for legibility across conditions. The redesigned bracelet is where Chopard put the most visible work: the first five links taper more aggressively, and a new comfort-adjustment system built into the triple-folding clasp allows the bracelet to extend by up to 5 mm with a simple push-and-pull—an elegant solution for temperature-driven wrist fluctuation. Water resistance is rated to 100 meters. The MovementPowering the Alpine Eagle 41 XPS is the in-house L.U.C Calibre 96.40-L, a direct descendant of the very first movement Chopard Manufacture produced in Fleurier in 1996. At just 3.30 mm thin, this automatic movement winds two stacked barrels via a 22K ethical yellow gold micro-rotor—Chopard's Twin technology— delivering a 65-hour power reserve with notably consistent energy output. The movement beats at 28,800 vph, incorporates a swan's neck regulator and stop-seconds function, and carries both COSC chronometer certification and the Poinçon de Genève hallmark. Bridges are decorated with Côtes de Genève, and the case back offers a full view of the movement. On the Wrist & PriceThe Alpine Eagle 41 XPS is a rare thing — a thin sports watch with manufacture movement credentials and finishing that holds up to scrutiny at every level. The Mountain Glow dial and refined bracelet make a strong case already set by the inaugural Monte Rosa Pink edition.Sticker Price USD 31,000. For more info on Chopard, click here.

Rather than a nostalgia exercise, this is a considered continuation: same 36.5 mm case, same austere clarity of layout, but now rendered in Lucent Steel and cloaked in a dial color the brand calls "Areuse Blue," named after the river that runs alongside the Val-de-Travers manufacture. The result is one of the more quietly compelling pieces to come out of Watches and Wonders Geneva 2026. This watch seems simple, but at times, as Mies van der Rohe would say, “less is more.” Things to Know About the WatchThe 36.5 mm Lucent Steel case measures 8.20 mm thick and carries 30-meter water resistance. The dial is made of 18K white gold, hand guilloché with a sunburst pattern on a vintage lathe operated by in-house artisans, with additional guilloché rings that add structural depth. Polished white gold chevron hour markers and Dauphine hands maintain classical legibility, while a small seconds subdial sits at 6 o'clock. There is no date, a deliberate choice to preserve the dial's symmetry and purity. The watch is delivered on a light grey grained calfskin strap and a stainless steel pin buckle. It is a Chopard boutique exclusive. The MovementThe L.U.C calibre 96.40-L is a direct descendant of the manufacture's very first calibre from 1996. Self-winding via a 22K gold micro-rotor, the movement uses Chopard's Twin Technology with two coaxial stacked barrels in order to deliver a 65-hour power reserve from a movement just 3.30mm thick. The movement beats at 28,800 vph—4 Hz—, incorporates a stop-seconds function and a swan's neck regulator for fine adjustment, and carries both COSC chronometer certification and the Poinçon de Genève hallmark. The latter is particularly notable in steel, where the finishing requirements are substantially more demanding than in precious metals. On the Wrist & PriceAt 36.5 mm, the L.U.C 1860 ref. 168860-3005 is a watch for collectors who understand that presence and size are not synonymous. In this case, the watch actually wears more like a 38 mm watch on a 7.25” wrist. The blue dial renders differently across lighting conditions, just like a chameleon—cool and restrained indoors, almost luminous in natural light—and the guilloché ensures there is always something to look at up close. A refined, purposeful anniversary piece.Sticker Price USD 29,700. For more info on Chopard, click here.

The L.U.C Quattro Spirit 25 Straw Marquetry is presented in 18K ethical yellow gold with a natural straw marquetry dial. Things to Know About the WatchThe 40 mm case in 18K ethical yellow gold measures 10.30 mm in thickness, with a vertically satin-brushed caseband and polished bezel and caseback. The dial is built on an ethical-gold base and decorated entirely in-house using straw marquetry. First, rye straw sourced from Burgundy is individually split with a fingernail, then flattened, and finally scalpel-cut into hexagons and assembled by hand into a honeycomb motif — the symbolic emblem of the L.U.C collection. The natural, undyed straw variant for the yellow gold case reads as warm amber; it has been neither tinted nor altered. The display is stripped to essentials: a central Dauphine fusée minute hand and a jumping-hour aperture at 6 o'clock, positioned so the minute hand never obscures the instantaneous hour change. The MovementPowering this watch is the manual-wound L.U.C 98.06-L calibre. This movement, which provides an 8-day power reserve, is based on the engine behind Chopard's Quattro technology, with four stacked, series-coupled mainspring barrels delivering nearly 2 meters of mainspring travel and a genuine 192-hour power reserve with an indicator on the movement side. The flatter torque curve this architecture produces keeps the balance amplitude stable throughout the run. A Phillips terminal curve balance spring and swan's-neck regulator enable precise fine adjustment. The movement carries the Poinçon de Genève. On the Wrist & PriceThe L.U.C Quattro Spirit 25 Straw Marquetry Edition is serious watchmaking delivered with artisanal restraint. Limited to eight pieces, two materials, and one very specific audience. The marquetry work on the dial is unlike anything we’ve ever seen, and the watch is better appreciated in person.Sticker Price USD 80,800. For more information, visit chopard.com.

The L.U.C XPS Prussian Blue is a 40 mm ultra-thin dress watch in Lucent Steel that owes its entire chromatic identity to the historical relationship between the Canton of Neuchâtel—where the Manufacture is based—and the Kingdom of Prussia. Discovered by accident in the 17th century by a Berlin color merchant—the city then being the capital of Prussia—, this deeply saturated hue pays tribute to the unique past of the Canton of Neuchâtel, where Chopard established its Fleurier Manufacture 30 years ago. The deep, saturated sunburst sector dial references 1930s Art Deco and Bauhaus dial design, and the result is one of the most compositionally disciplined watches Chopard has produced in the L.U.C line. Things to Know About the WatchThe Lucent Steel case—Chopard's proprietary alloy produced with an 80% recycling rate, offering gold-comparable brilliance with hypoallergenic properties—measures 40 mm in diameter and just 7.2 mm thick. The Prussian Blue sector dial is executed in a sunburst finish that shifts with the light, organized in concentric zones that give the otherwise spare surface genuine visual tension. No date, pure three-hand simplicity with hours, minutes, and seconds. The MovementInside runs the L.U.C 96.12-L, Chopard's slim self-winding calibre bearing both COSC chronometer certification and the Poinçon de Genève. A combination demanding enough in steel to merit specific recognition. A 22K ethical gold micro-rotor winds twin stacked barrels via Chopard's Twin Technology, delivering a 65-hour power reserve from a movement that keeps the total profile under 7.5 mm. On the Wrist & PriceAt its under USD 15K price point, the Chopard L.U.C XPS Prussian Blue reference 168629-3002 makes a case that is difficult to dismiss: COSC chronometer certification, Poinçon de Genève certification that warrants a specific level of finishing, an in-house micro-rotor movement, and a 7.2 mm profile in a proprietary steel alloy. All for less than the entry price of many far less credentialed watches. In a segment where thin and refined typically commands a significant premium, Chopard has priced this one to be worn, not just admired.Sticker Price USD 13,600. More info on Chopard, here.

Although let’s not forget Audemars Piguet’s integration of auto racing design cues into several Royal Oak Offshores, like the Pablo Montoya, the Michael Schumacher, and the Rubens Barrichello. The Zagato Lab One Concept watch is limited to just 19 pieces and commemorates the founding of bodywork specialist Zagato on April 19, 1919. This new watch is not merely an aesthetic homage but a genuine transposition of racing engineering principles into horological form for the wrist.As a result of this shared passion, Chopard and Zagato have already collaborated on two previous occasions, the first in 2013 with the Mille Miglia Zagato Chronograph, followed in 2019 by the Mille Miglia Classic Chronograph Zagato 100th Anniversary Edition commemorating the coachbuilder’s founding date. Things to Know About the WatchThe case design follows the philosophy borrowed directly from competition car chassis design, and the ceramicised titanium 42 mm case uses a tubular architecture in which the L.U.C 04.04-L movement sits supported by a framework of tubes rather than traditional lugs.This borrowed design principle, pioneered by Zagato for optimizing rigidity while reducing weight in racing applications, distributes mechanical stress during impacts and enhances structural integrity. Four lever arms inserted into the caseband provide additional calibre protection, while tubular open loops replacing conventional lugs feature a pivoting function with approximately 45 degrees of adjustment amplitude per side, ensuring optimal wrist conformity. View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize A glass-box type sapphire crystal sits flush with the caseband, maximizing legibility, while a symmetrical exhibition case back extends the caseband geometry. The crown, derived from automotive differential gears, bears Chopard's Classic Racing steering wheel engraving. The case, movement bridges, and mainplate are crafted entirely in ceramicised titanium—an aerospace-grade material treated through electroplasma oxidation technology. This process yields a Vickers hardness of 1,000, with scratch and shock resistance comparable to that of ceramic, while maintaining titanium's characteristic lightness. The result is a complete watch weighing merely 43.2 grams, including the technical fabric strap, or 36.5 grams without, establishing this as Chopard's lightest titanium timepiece and one of the lightest watches in the market—the Richard Mille RM27-01 Rafael Nadal is still the lightest watch ever made. The MovementThe watch is powered by the manual-wound L.U.C Calibre 04.04-L, which represents an evolution of Chopard Manufacture's Engine One Tourbillon movement introduced in 2010. Departing from its predecessors' vertical and horizontal configurations, this 207-part mechanism adopts a round architecture. Fully crafted in ceramicised titanium, the movement mainplate serves as the dial of the watch, adorned with Zagato's signature "Z" motif featuring rhodium-plated chamfers. Both Chopard and Zagato logos appear in positive relief with rhodium plating. Rhodium-plated openwork hour and minute hands evoke racing steering wheels with pierced spokes, while a fuel gauge-style power reserve indicator at 12 o'clock reinforces the dashboard analogy.The 60-second tourbillon, housed in an aluminum carriage for weight optimization, features a Variner balance and Phillips terminal curve hairspring, beating at 28,800 vph to provide a 60-hour power reserve when fully wound. COSC chronometer certification validates precision standards, while a shock-absorbing system based on silent blocks—elastomer elements that dampen vibrations analogous to automotive engine mounts—protects the movement from impacts. The material's permanent anthracite gray finish resists fading under extreme conditions, reinforcing the watch's motorsport functionality credentials. Summary & PriceThis 19-piece limited edition reference 168636-3001 exemplifies how genuine technical innovation can deliver a cohesive watch design that bridges automotive and horological DNA, creating what Karl-Friedrich Scheufele accurately describes as "bold design in the service of technical performance."

With the DB28XS Dark Sand, the manufacture takes that formula into decidedly darker, more mineral territory—deploying matte anthracite zirconium across the case and floating lugs to create something that reads as both stealthy and technically intentional. The use of purple on the hands takes us back to 2024’s De Bethune Purple Rain. Things to Know About the WatchThe DB28XS Dark Sand reference DB28XSSWZ measures 38.7 mm in diameter at just 8 mm thick, making it one of the more discreet offerings in De Bethune's current lineup without sacrificing presence. Zirconium is the key material story here: dense, corrosion-resistant, and finished in a matte anthracite that earns the "Dark Sand" name. The floating lug system, patented by De Bethune in 2006, remains one of the more elegant solutions in independent watchmaking for conforming the case naturally to the wrist. The dial is a study in tonal restraint—a black sandblasted titanium background, a barleycorn guilloché anthracite barrel bridge cover, and a black circular satin-finished titanium hour-and-minute ring punctuated by polished purple titanium hour markers and matching hands. The purple accents are the one moment of chromatic relief against an otherwise monochromatic composition, and they work precisely because they're so restrained. The MovementThe Calibre DB2115V13 is a manual-wound movement running at 28,800 vph with a 6-day power reserve delivered by a self-regulating twin barrel. Its 241 parts and 36 jewels include a titanium balance wheel with white gold inserts engineered for thermal compensation and air resistance, a proprietary flat-terminal-curve balance spring, a silicon escape wheel, and De Bethune's triple pare-chute shock absorption system. Power reserve is displayed on a linear gauge-type indicator through the display case back. The movement is a real treat for the eyes as with any other De Bethune timepiece. On the Wrist & PriceWith a conservative diameter and a svelte thickness, the De Bethune DB28XS Dark Sand wears with the low-key confidence that zirconium's density quietly reinforces. It's a watch for the collector who already knows what the brand stands for, there's no showmanship here, only pure craft and De Bethune at its best.Sticker Price CHF 90,000—approx USD 115,000.

Six Years of Hand-Making. In an era where automated processes dominate manufacturing and artificial intelligence reshapes entire industries, Chronométrie Ferdinand Berthoud has undertaken a profound act of resistance. The Naissance d'une Montre 3 project represents more than the creation of eleven extraordinary timepieces—it stands as a testament to the irreplaceable value of human craftsmanship and the patient pursuit of horological excellence.Marking the tenth anniversary of Chronométrie Ferdinand Berthoud, this ambitious cross-disciplinary endeavor fulfills founder and President Karl-Friedrich Scheufele's visionary dream. More than 80 skilled artisans and specialists from Chronométrie Ferdinand Berthoud and Chopard collaborated to bring this contemporary interpretation of Ferdinand Berthoud's Astronomical Pocket Watch No. 3 to life.The Naissance d'une Montre 3 represents the pinnacle of horological craftsmanship—a six-year journey that celebrates both technical mastery and human artistry. This wrist-worn timekeeper achieves official COSC chronometer certification while being entirely handcrafted using traditional methods, deliberately avoiding any digital assistance.This is more than a watch; it's living proof that traditional craftsmanship and horological heritage can create something truly extraordinary in our modern age.The project's adherence to the Time Æon Foundation's regulations reveals its proper philosophical foundation. Every component crafted without digital assistance, guided solely by "the human eye, hand, and mind," represents a deliberate choice to honor the rhythms of traditional craftsmanship. In a world increasingly dominated by automated precision, Naissance d'une Montre 3 reminds us that some achievements cannot be rushed, replicated, or reduced to algorithms.The dedication to using only vintage machine tools in a specially created workshop speaks to a broader understanding of heritage preservation. This isn't mere nostalgia—it's a recognition that specific skills, developed over centuries of human experience, contain wisdom that modern technology has yet to learn to replicate. View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize A Vision Six Years in the MakingKarl-Friedrich Scheufele's ambitious dream has finally come to fruition, coinciding perfectly with Chronométrie Ferdinand Berthoud's tenth anniversary. What began as an homage to Ferdinand Berthoud's Astronomical Pocket Watch No. 3 evolved into something far more significant: a living laboratory where traditional watchmaking techniques could be preserved, practiced, and passed forward to future generations.The numbers tell only part of the story—11,000 hours of meticulous work, six years of unwavering dedication, and the expertise of more than 80 artisans and specialists. But behind these figures lies a deeper narrative about the relationship between human skill and mechanical perfection, between tradition and innovation. View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize The fusion of a split bimetallic temperature-compensated Guillaume-type balance wheel with a constant-force fusee-and-chain transmission system represents the pinnacle of mechanical ingenuity. These aren't merely technical specifications; they're the physical manifestation of centuries of horological evolution, each component carrying forward the accumulated knowledge of master craftsmen.The decision to make the movement entirely visible from the dial side transforms each timepiece into a meditation on the beauty of mechanical engineering. Housed within a specially conceived 44 mm 18K white gold case, these watches become windows into the soul of traditional watchmaking—where function and form achieve perfect harmony.Only 11 watches will be produced of the Ferdinand Berthoud 'Naissance d'une Montre 3' Project with Time Æon Foundation. The resulting series showcases a remarkable fusion of historical inspiration and modern innovation. Each timepiece, featuring a 44 mm 18K white gold case, displays the beauty of its mechanics magnificently. At its heart lies a movement steeped in the legacy of Master Watchmaker Ferdinand Berthoud, featuring a constant-force fusee-and-chain transmission system, a bimetallic balance, a central seconds hand, and an open architecture. View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize These 11 exceptional chronometers uphold the same exacting standards of quality and finishing that define all contemporary Chronométrie Ferdinand Berthoud timepieces. Lessons in TimeLouis Berthoud's phrase "temps qui instruit"—time that instructs—resonates powerfully through this project. The Naissance d'une Montre 3 watches embody this wisdom, teaching us that excellence cannot be hurried, that mastery requires patience, and that the journey of creation is often more valuable than the destination itself. In a world obsessed with efficiency and speed, these eleven chronometers offer a different perspective on value. They remind us that some achievements require the slow accumulation of skill, the patient refinement of technique, and the deep understanding that comes only through sustained human effort. The Greater PurposeThe upcoming Phillips auction in association with Bacs & Russo in Geneva will feature a unique one-of-a-kind stainless steel version of the Naissance d'une Montre 3, marking the first public presentation of this extraordinary project. The November 2025 auction represents more than a commercial transaction—it's an investment in the future of human craftsmanship, with proceeds supporting charitable efforts dedicated to preserving and passing on watchmaking expertise to future generations.This commitment to education and preservation reveals the project's true ambition: ensuring that the knowledge embodied in these eleven chronometer-certified timepieces continues to be passed down, nurturing new generations of craftsmen who can maintain these traditional techniques.As we witness the presentation of Naissance d'une Montre 3, we're not merely observing the completion of an ambitious horological project. We're seeing the successful preservation of an entire tradition—one that bridges the gap between Ferdinand Berthoud's 18th-century innovations and the contemporary world's need for authentic, human-centered excellence. Even the box accompanying the watches has been handcrafted from top to bottom. These eleven timepieces will tick forward into the future, carrying with them not just precise timekeeping, but the accumulated wisdom of generations of craftsmen. They serve as both functional instruments and philosophical statements, proving that in our increasingly digital world, the irreplaceable value of human skill, patience, and dedication continues to create wonders that no machine can replicate.The Naissance d'une Montre 3 project ultimately teaches us that true luxury lies not in exclusivity alone, but in the preservation and celebration of human potential at its finest. In an era of artificial intelligence and automated production, these watches remind us that some forms of intelligence—the kind found in skilled hands guided by experienced minds—remain uniquely and irreplaceably human.Sticker Price Upon Request.

This year marks the gallery's 15th anniversary, and to celebrate, MB&F has invited several artists who helped shape its identity to create special limited edition pieces that will be unveiled throughout the year.When MB&F opened the first M.A.D. Gallery in 2011, in Geneva’s Old Town, the concept was born less from a business plan than from necessity. Retail partners sometimes struggled to contextualize the brand's three-dimensional Horological Machines within conventional watch displays, while art galleries dismissed them as, well, watches. The solution was to build a space that existed between both worlds—a home for mechanical art that didn't belong in either.The series opens with Frank Buchwald, one of the very first artists to join the M.A.D.Gallery project. Max Büsser originally discovered Buchwald's retro-futuristic Machine Lights online, intending to buy one for his home. A visit to the artist's Berlin workshop—an old industrial space filled with brass, steel, and sketches— changed the trajectory entirely. Büsser left, having purchased the next ten pieces for the gallery that didn't yet exist. Fifteen years and many Machine Lights later, that partnership continues with the ML15 Helios. Limited to 15 pieces, Helios is conceived as a mechanical sun. A spherical lamp sits at its center, encircled by a luminous ring that evokes a solar corona. Two transparent blue rings frame the sphere, lending the piece an almost anthropomorphic quality — somewhere between an eye and a scientific instrument, with the unsettling suggestion that it might be observing you as much as you're observing it. As with all of Buchwald's work, the ML15 Helios is entirely handcrafted. Even laser-cut elements are manually reworked and refined, and the process extends well into assembly: adding, removing, adjusting proportions until the object achieves the balance its creator demands. Each piece requires weeks to complete, with much of that time devoted not to construction but to the subtle refinements that distinguish craft from manufacturing.It is a fitting way to open the anniversary year—with one of the artists who was there at the beginning, and with an object that captures what the M.A.D.Gallery has represented since 2011: a space for mechanical creations that resist easy categorisation.The Details on the lamp are as follows: 350 mm x 440 mm x 460 mm | Weight: 9kg | Materials: Stainless steel with brass elements | Limitation: 15 piecesSticker Price CHF 12,000—approx USD 15,500.

Where the Quadruple Tourbillon or the GMT demanded a certain acclimation before the movement's logic revealed itself, the Balancier 3 offered immediate legibility with three bridges, each assigned to a distinct function, composing an architecture you could read at a glance. That structural directness has remained its defining quality. This new edition, limited to 22 timepieces, does not revise that logic. It deepens it through finishing. Things to KnowThe case is the Convexe titanium form at 41.50 mm in diameter, a size that wears closer to 40 mm on the wrist due to the ergonomic curvature that follows the natural line of the wrist. The variable-geometry bezel and curved sapphire crystal sustain the continuity between the case architecture and the movement within, a relationship that has always been central to how the Balancier 3 is meant to be experienced. The principal evolution of this edition lies in the use of a new surface language in the treatment of the bridges. The barrel and balance bridges are made of polished titanium, maintaining the bright, reflective presence they have had since the reference launched. The central bridge that runs diagonally between 1 and 2 o'clock down to the small seconds at 8 o'clock receives a treatment that has not been done before: a deep frosting applied by hand with a steel brush across its entire curved surface. The result is a pronounced matte texture that reads as darker and more absorptive than the lighter frosting on the movement bridges. Polished bevels at the contours prevent the surface from appearing simply rough, and they give the bridge definition and contain the texture within a precise formal boundary. The distinction between these finishing languages creates something more interesting than contrast for its own sake. It assigns visual hierarchy to the three-bridge structure without altering the underlying architecture. The polished bridges catch light and assert themselves; the frosted central bridge recedes and frames. Multiple hues of blue reinforce the movement's layered depth, guiding legibility across the openly constructed dial where distance between planes matters as much as the planes themselves. The MovementThe movement remains unchanged in its mechanical constitution: 282 components, a variable-inertia balance wheel of 12.60 mm fitted with six gold mean-time screws, and two fast-rotating series-coupled barrels delivering 72 hours of power reserve. The functional layout remains faithful to the original concept — hours and minutes on the suspended central bridge, a rotating small-seconds disc with a fixed indicator, and a power-reserve indication read from the movement side—a deliberate choice that keeps the dial face uncluttered. Summary & PriceTwenty-two pieces is a number Greubel Forsey has returned to before. At that quantity, this is not a broad release but rather an incremental refinement made available to a narrow circle. For collectors already within Balancier 3’s orbit, the frosted central bridge serves as a meaningful point of distinction. For those considering the reference for the first time, it offers the same movement in a finishing register that is demonstrably more complex than what preceded it.Sticker Price CHF 175,000—approx USD 220,000.

Each is limited to 11 timepieces, making them the most exclusive executions the S² has seen. When production of the GF09XV calibre ceases later this year, these will stand as its last word. The final two editions of a calibre five years in the making, with production ending permanently in 2026. Things to Know About the WatchThe Convexe case architecture, measuring 41.5 mm across the caseband and 14.80 mm at its tallest point on the sapphire crystals, was designed from the outset so that the case and movement would function as a single integrated object. The convex geometry follows the natural curvature of the wrist, and the three-dimensional bezel with profiled ceramic lugs extends the movement's architecture outward rather than simply enclosing it. Curved synthetic sapphire crystals on both sides reinforce that continuity. The two editions take opposite aesthetic positions on the same mechanical foundation. The black ceramic and 5N red gold version plays with contrast and depth—black-treated movement components set against a warm gold bezel and caseback, with matte-to-polished surface transitions amplifying the three-dimensionality of the calibre. The white ceramic edition goes monochromatic, using light and shadow to reveal the movement's structure in a more graphic, technically transparent expression. Both retain the same functional layout: hours and minutes displayed on a suspended arch bridge, small seconds on a gold sub-dial, and a sector power-reserve indicator with a red triangle hand. The bezel diameter is 44.00 mm, the caseband 41.5 mm, and the case height is 12.85 mm. Water resistance is rated to 30 meters. The crown is titanium and rubber with interchangeable colour-coded capping. Straps are hand-sewn textured rubber with a titanium folding clasp. The MovementThe hand-wound GF09XV calibre is built around Greubel Forsey's patented 30° inclined balance wheel system, positioned as both the visual and chronometric centre of the composition. The movement totals 301 components, with 68 dedicated to the escapement platform alone, and carries 43 jewels in olived-domed gold chatons. Two coaxial series-coupled fast-rotating barrels—completing one turn every 3.2 hours—deliver a 72-hour power reserve. The in-house variable-inertia balance wheel—12.60 mm diameter—with six gold mean-time screws operates at 3 Hz. Bridges and main plates are titanium, frosted and hand-finished with polished bevelling and countersinks. The multi-level open-worked suspended-arch bridge is straight-grained and polished. Every component, including those largely hidden from view, receives the same level of finishing, a Greubel Forsey hallmark that prioritizes integrity of construction over visibility. Summary & PriceThe Balancier Convexe S² was never a watch designed to evolve indefinitely. These two ceramic editions — 22 pieces total — are Greubel Forsey's deliberate farewell to a five-year calibre, and a signal that the maison is pivoting toward an almost entirely new collection. For collectors, the significance is straightforward: once these are allocated, the GF09XV movement is gone.Sticker Price CHF 295,000—approx USD 376,000. More info on Greubel Forsey, here.

Moser & Cie. Endeavour Minute Repeater Cylindrical Tourbillon Skeleton 'Cosmic Rain' H. Moser & Cie. has unveiled the Endeavour Minute Repeater Cylindrical Tourbillon Skeleton ‘Cosmic Rain’, a limited edition of 20 pieces that folds three of haute horlogerie's most exacting complications into a titanium case. A minute repeater, a flying tourbillon governed by a hand-formed cylindrical hairspring, and a fully skeletonized architecture are not, individually, rare sights at this level of the industry. Finding all three coexisting in one movement, without one compromising the others, is the harder trick—and the one Moser is asking collectors to notice here. Things to Know About the WatchCased in a 40 mm titanium case, the defining decision on this piece is where H. Moser chose to put the chiming mechanism. Minute repeater hammers and gongs are, by long convention, typically hidden on the back of the movement, doing their work out of sight. Moser flipped that convention, moving the entire striking mechanism to the dial side so the wearer can watch the hammers strike as they hear the hours, quarter-hours, and minutes chime. That relocation is not a cosmetic gesture; it demanded a full rethink of the caliber's architecture to protect acoustic performance while opening the mechanism to view, and the skeletonization throughout—openworked bridges, lightened volumes—carries that transparency through the rest of the movement. The one concession to solidity sits at 2 o'clock, where a small domed dial breaks from the openworked construction entirely. Built from aventurine glass in two hand-applied colors, fired multiple times to produce Moser's fumé gradient, then inlaid with individually placed strips of curved mother-of-pearl, the ‘Cosmic Rain’ sub-dial reads as a shower of stars set against the mechanical transparency surrounding it. It is the one part of the watch built for the eye rather than the ear, and it earns its placement by contrast rather than competition. The MovementDriving all of it is the manual-wound calibre HMC 909, a three-dimensional, fully skeletonized movement built around a one-minute flying tourbillon at 6 o'clock. That tourbillon carries a cylindrical hairspring, a construction borrowed from 18th-century marine chronometers and now nearly extinct in serial production, owing to how demanding the hairspring is to hand-shape and regulate. H. Moser sources it in-house through its sister company, Precision Engineering AG. The movement beats at 21,600 vph across 415 components and 35 jewels, finished with Moser's signature double stripes on plate and bridges, and delivers a 90-hour power reserve. Field Notes & PriceBetween a repeater built to be watched, a tourbillon built on a nearly abandoned hairspring geometry, and a dial built on glasswork and inlay, the Endeavour Minute Repeater Cylindrical Tourbillon Skeleton ‘Cosmic Rain’ reads less as an anniversary flourish than as Moser restating, plainly, what its own version of haute horlogerie looks like when nothing is hidden.

Moser & Cie. Streamliner Tourbillon Concept Ceramic—First Time Using this Material H. Moser & Cie. has never touched ceramics until now. The Streamliner Tourbillon Concept Ceramic ref. 6805-2100 marks the Schaffhausen independent manufacture's first foray into the material, and the decision to debut it within the Streamliner collection feels less like experimentation and more like inevitability. This is a genuine material debut for Moser, not an extension of an existing ceramic lineup, but a first chapter written within one of their most demanding collections. Things to Know About the WatchThe 40 mm anthracite dark grey ceramic case is 12.8 mm thick—including its sapphire crystal—and fitted with a screw-in crown engraved with the Moser "M" and a sapphire caseback providing a water resistance of 120 meters. The full-ceramic execution extends to the integrated bracelet, secured by a folding triple-blade clasp, making this a complete ceramic-on-ceramic package rather than a hybrid approach. What makes it impressive is the finishing. Vertical satin brushing on the bracelet links, polished bevels on the case edges, and circular satin finishing on the case flanks are all applied by hand to a material notoriously resistant to such refinement. Ceramic doesn't forgive—every surface treatment here is earned. At the center of that restrained grey shell sits a Red fumé Grand Feu enamel dial that borders on confrontational. Two enamel pigments are hand-applied in a gradient over a hammered white gold base, then fired repeatedly to achieve a chromatic depth that shifts between deep crimson and luminous scarlet. True to Moser's Concept philosophy, there are no indices, no logo, just colour, light, and a pair of hands fitted with Globolight inserts. The visual contrast against the anthracite ceramic is arrestingly good. At six o’clock, the one-minute flying tourbillon takes the center stage. The MovementThe Streamliner Tourbillon Concept Ceramic is powered by the automatic calibre HMC 805 beating at 21,600 vph, and offering a minimum 72-hour power reserve. Winding is handled by a bidirectional pawl system and a skeletonised 18K red gold oscillating weight engraved with the Moser logo.The movement's defining technical feature remains Moser's proprietary double hairspring, designed and produced in-house by sister company Precision Engineering AG. The paired hairsprings compensate for centre-of-gravity shifts during expansion, meaningfully improving isochronism—the kind of quiet, substantive engineering that defines this manufacture. The anthracite-finished bridges with Moser's signature double stripes echo the ceramic exterior, while the red gold rotor provides a warm counterpoint visible through the sapphire case back. Summary & PriceWith the Streamliner Tourbillon Concept Ceramic, Moser has done what it does best by taking a quiet, confident step into new territory without losing sight of what makes the manufacture distinctive. Ceramic was the right material for this collection, and the execution leaves little room for argument.Sticker Price USD 112,100. For more info on H. Moser & Cie., click here. Introducing: H.

Rather than producing a numbered, limited-edition series, the Swiss brand has created three unique S1 timepieces—each designated 1 of 1—in a trilogy of colors that tell the story of Dubai's transformation from a desert trading port to a global metropolis.The S1 Seddiqi editions arrive in Titanium Sand, Titanium Green, and Titanium Blue, with each hue carrying symbolic weight. The Sand edition embodies the heritage of its foundation, evoking the Arabian Peninsula's desert landscape where Ahmed Seddiqi established his vision in 1950. Green represents growth and prosperity, reflecting the oases that symbolize life in Arab culture and mirroring the family's role in nurturing the regional luxury watch market. Blue captures the infinite possibilities of the future, echoing the Arabian Gulf, which has served as Dubai's gateway to the world. Things to Know About the WatchesEach 45.3 mm titanium case receives specialized treatment reflecting its colorway. The Green edition features highland green ceramic coating, the Blue presents polar blue ceramic coating, while the Sand version showcases natural beadblasted titanium with black coating accents. All three share black-coated titanium crowns elegantly engraved with "7S" commemorating the anniversary, along with sapphire crystals treated with an anti-reflective coating and 50 meters of water resistance.The dial executions thoughtfully integrate Indian numerals—a tribute to the region's numerical heritage and Ahmed Seddiqi's Middle Eastern roots. The Green edition features black-coated brass hour indicators with green appliques, and green-coated brass minute displays with white and red decals. The Blue inverts this approach with blue-coated brass hour indicators against black appliques, while black-coated brass minute displays feature white and red accents. The Sand version features sand-coated brass throughout, with brown appliques on the hours and sand with red decals on the minutes, creating a cohesive desert-inspired aesthetic enhanced by beige SuperLumiNova on the hands. View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize The MovementAt the heart of these distinctive timepieces beats HYT's calibre 501-CM, a 352-component mechanical movement delivering 72 hours of power reserve at 28,800 vibrations per hour. The manual-winding calibre drives HYT's signature hydromechanical complication—a system protected by seven patents and honored with the Innovation Prize at the 2012 Grand Prix d'Horlogerie de Genève. Time display is achieved through a fluidic retrograde hours indication, where two immiscible liquids—one colored, one transparent—circulate within a borosilicate glass capillary with an internal diameter of just 0.8 millimeters. The boundary between these fluids—the meniscus—acts as the hour hand, advancing along the capillary throughout the day before instantly retrograding at midnight. On the Wrist & Price HYT's innovative quick-change strap system equips each watch with two options. The Green and Blue versions include pure black Velcro and rubber straps. At the same time, the Sand edition pairs a sand Velcro strap with a pure black rubber alternative—all secured by black DLC-coated titanium clasps with satin and sandblasted finishes.Available exclusively through Ahmed Seddiqi, these three singular timepieces represent HYT's most personalized tribute yet to a retail partner whose legacy continues shaping the horological landscape.Sticker Price CHF 64,000—approx USD 80,400—Titanium Sand and CHF 66,000—approx USD 83,000— Titanium Green and Titanium Blue.

Celebrating the Nashville Boutique Opening. When Hermès opens a boutique in a new city, the maison doesn't simply cut a ribbon—it creates a horological tribute. The new Arceau On Air! commemorates Hermès' first Nashville location and captures the soul of Music City through the house's mastery of miniature painting, transforming the iconic Arceau case into a wearable celebration of American musical heritage.Henri d'Origny's 1978 Arceau design has long served as Hermès' canvas for artistic crafts, with its 38 mm round case and distinctive asymmetrical lugs providing an ideal stage for métiers d'art. The On Air! editions—limited to just two numbered pieces in each of two colorways—push this tradition into bold new territory by stripping away the Arceau's signature Arabic numerals entirely. What remains is pure visual storytelling: a miniature painting executed on sapphire that evokes the atmosphere of a Nashville recording studio.Artist Carine Brancowitz, who originally designed the guitars for Hermès' On Air! scarf, reimagines her work for the dial's circular format. Four electric guitars in vibrant hues stand, arranged as if captured mid-session, their bodies and necks meticulously hand-painted with extraordinary detail. The instruments appear to float against a sapphire background, pad-printed to resemble a colored vinyl record, complete with grooves that radiate outward from the center. This clever visual metaphor reinforces the musical theme while providing subtle texture to the composition. Here, the Manufacture Hermès H1912 movement—a 3.7 mm-thick automatic calibre offering 50 hours of power reserve and beating at 28,800 vph—operates discreetly behind the scenes. The watch displays only hours and minutes, with steel hands cleverly shaped to evoke guitar picks. These "picks" appear to strum across the guitar strings before gliding along the grooves of the record, creating a dynamic interplay between timekeeping and artistic narrative.Hermès offers two interpretations, each in an edition of just two pieces. The first features a Bleu Abysse dial with a matte Bleu Abysse alligator strap, evoking the cool tones of a classic blues recording. The second presents a Rouge H dial paired with a matte barolo Rouge H alligator strap, channeling the energy of rock and roll. Both versions share a 38 mm 18K white gold case weighing approximately 43.9 grams, fitted with anti-glare sapphire crystals front and back to showcase the miniature painting and the circular-grained movement finishing.With only four total pieces between both editions, the Arceau On Air! represents one of the rarest releases in Hermès' horological catalog—a fitting tribute to Nashville's musical legacy and Hermès' expanding American presence.Sticker Price USD 69,800.

More than three decades on, the architecture remains untouched. What changes now is what the watch is made of, and that change turns out to matter more than it should: the new Cape Cod in titanium is here. Things to Know About the WatchThe 41 mm case arrives in titanium for the first time, satin-finished across the top face with beadblasted sides —two surface treatments working together to prevent the case from reading as monolithic. It is the right material choice for this particular design: titanium sharpens the Cape Cod's inherently sporty character without tipping it into tool-watch territory, preserving the effortless, almost thrown-on quality that has always been the watch's social register. View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize The black dial operates in the same register of careful restraint, deploying a Charmilles-textured, sandblasted center against a satin-finished, brushed outer ring. The effect is dimensional without being decorative. Rhodium-plated Arabic numerals and baton-type hands carry SuperLumiNova coatings, and a single orange seconds hand—the only moment of pure color in the composition—pulls the whole dial into focus. It is a very small decision that does a very large amount of work. The rubber strap comes in four colorways—jaune de Naples, orange, bleu abysse, and black—each calibrated to the same coastal, unencumbered spirit that the Cape Cod has embodied since the beginning. Water resistance is rated to 100 meters. The MovementInside is the Manufacture Hermès H1912, a self-winding automatic mechanical movement crafted in Switzerland. It beats at 28,800 vph, includes a date function at 6 o’clock, and delivers a 45-hour power reserve Water resistance is rated to 10 bar. Summary & PriceThe Cape Cod Titanium is the version of this watch that collectors have quietly been waiting for, with a Manufacture movement, a sports-appropriate material, a rubber strap, and a dial that finally has something to say beyond the obvious. The design was always right. Now the specification catches up to it.Sticker Price USD 7,900. For more info on Hermès, click here.

The Hermès H08 watch etches each moment with deliberate intention. It is attuned to the pulse of its wearer, becoming an extension of their very being. Its energy drives their every movement to the rhythm of the world's beating heart, resonating with a vital impetus that generates time both fluid and precise.The watch's geometric profile maintains an all-terrain sensibility, fitting seamlessly into the masculine universe of Hermès where precision highlights the sensuality of materials. Between round and square, the H08's cushion-shaped case with subtle edges dares to juxtapose different forms, materials—titanium, ceramic—and finishes—satin-brushed, sunburst, mirror-polished. Each surface treatment creates a visual symphony that changes with light, revealing new facets throughout the day. Things to Know About the Watches The collection welcomes two compelling new titanium versions with grained light-colored dials displaying hours, minutes, and seconds. These interpretations accentuate the audacity of the dial's luminescent Arabic numerals and the thoughtfully positioned date aperture at 4:30—maintaining visual balance while providing practical functionality. Ruthenium hands, also coated with blue SuperLumiNova, sweep across this technical canvas within the 42 mm cushion-shaped titanium case. The sunburst satin-brushed ceramic bezel features mirror-polished chamfers that create depth drawing the eye inward, while anti-glare sapphire crystal and a screw-locked crown ensure the 100-meter water resistance expected of such a sporting timepiece. The first variation captures attention with a vibrant orange touch at the seconds hand tip, transforming the composition from sophisticated to spirited. This version offers a full titanium bracelet, three distinct rubber straps secured by folding clasps and two webbing straps. The titanium case asserts itself with robust character and monochrome finish. The rubber straps sport candid colors—orange, bleu abysse, or black—marrying comfort and dynamism for boardrooms or mountain trails alike. Webbing straps in blue or black provide subtler sophistication through textural character that nods to Hermès' textile heritage. View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize The second variation allows color to infuse energy directly into the dial through its rhodium-plated crystal sandblasted surface, where ruthenium-plated applied Arabic numerals coated with blue SuperLumiNova catch light against the grained center. The bleu Saint-Cyr numerals give the dial its distinctive tempo, enhanced by a black-gold treated circular satin-brushed minutes disc and transferred minutes track in black or blue. This model is accompanied by a bleu Saint-Cyr and a black rubber strap secured by a folding clasp. The MovementAt its heart beats the Manufacture Hermès H1837 self-winding movement, a caliber representing the brand's commitment to in-house excellence. The movement's name pays homage to the year Thierry Hermès founded the company, creating a tangible link between saddle-making heritage and horological innovation. With the Hermès H08 watch, time transcends mere measurement, anchoring itself in material reality while stretching toward infinity. It represents a philosophy where craftsmanship meets innovation, where heritage informs the future, and where telling time becomes personal expression. In a world dominated by digital immediacy, the H08 reminds us that true artisanship, mechanical precision, and timeless elegance cannot be rushed—only perfected.Sticker Price USD 7,200 on a bracelet, USD 6,650 on a rubber or webbing strap, and USD 7,600 for the bleu Saint-Cyr model.

This is the first time the Gérald Genta-derived integrated bracelet design has been executed in colored ceramic. Where last year's black ceramic reference leaned into severity, the olive green iteration plays a more nuanced game: warm, richly saturated, and punctuated by gold that softens what might otherwise be an uncompromisingly technical proposition. Things to Know About the WatchThe 42 mm case is constructed from dark olive green zirconium oxide ceramic across the case ring, bezel, case back ring, crown guards, and integrated bracelet. The color is achieved by blending zirconium oxide with metallic oxides, then controlling the sintering process carefully to ensure consistency across all components. To keep the profile as slim as possible, 11.5 mm thick, IWC employed a multi-part construction with an internal titanium ring that seats the movement and anchors the bezel screws. The dial, matching the case’s hue, features the characteristic “grid” structure, consisting of small lines and squares, stamped into the soft iron base under high pressure. Afterward, the olive-green color is applied via a PVD coating. The gold-plated baton hands and the applied markers are all filled with SuperLumiNova luminescent mass to ensure perfect legibility in all lighting conditions.  The crown is 18K 5N red gold; the bezel screws are IWC's proprietary Armor Gold alloy. The dial features gold imprints and a gold-framed date window at 3 o'clock, along with the usual “Ingenieur” lightning bolt logo at 6. The water resistance is rated to 100 meters. The MovementPower comes from the IWC-manufactured calibre 82110, an automatic movement with the brand's Pellaton bidirectional winding system—notable for its use of virtually wear-free ceramic components in the winding mechanism. The movement beats at 28,800 vph and delivers a 60-hour power reserve. Côtes de Geneve decorate the bridges, visible through the slightly tinted sapphire case back. On the Wrist & PriceThe combination of dark color and lightweight ceramic—the watch weighs a total of 134 grams—makes the 42 mm size feel more comfortable than its dimensions suggest. The integrated bracelet, connecting via middle links and closing with a double-folding deployant clasp, provides excellent ergonomics. The olive-green ceramic Ingenieur Automatic 42 is an assured, design-forward piece that earns its place at the top of the current Ingenieur lineup.Sticker Price USD 23,800.

At Watches and Wonders Geneva 2026, IWC brings that combination to titanium for the first time, with reference IW344904. The case is the same at 41.6 mm in diameter. The movement is unchanged. What shifts is everything you feel: this is now IWC's lightest perpetual calendar watch in production—weighing only 120 grams—and the material change is more than a footnote as it reframes the watch entirely and cloaks it in a monochromatic look. Things to Know About the WatchThe Grade 5 titanium case measures 41.6 mm in diameter and 13.2 mm thick, with an integrated titanium bracelet connected through a middle-link attachment that distributes weight across the wrist and contributes meaningfully to wearing comfort. Titanium runs approximately 45 percent lighter than stainless steel, and on the wrist, you notice. The characteristic round bezel—a hallmark of the Ingenieur since 1976—is secured by five functional screws, and the case, bezel, crown guard, and bracelet links are sandblasted with polished bevels, while the sides of the case and bracelet receive a satin finish. The butterfly folding clasp completes the bracelet. The matte grey dial carries the Ingenieur's signature "Grid" pattern of fine lines and squares, lending the watch a coherent, almost monolithic appearance that suits the titanium's industrial character. Calendar subdials at 3 o'clock (date), 9 o'clock (day and leap year indicator), and 6 o'clock (month and moon phase) receive a circular satin finish with azurage at their outer edges. The moon phase display achieves an accuracy of one day's deviation in 577.5 years. Hands and applied indices are filled with SuperLumiNova, and water resistance is 100 meters. The MovementPowering this watch is the IWC-manufactured Caliber 82600, which beats at 28,800 vph with a 60-hour power reserve. Kurt Klaus's mechanically programmed perpetual calendar—all functions adjusted via the crown, without pushers—remains one of the more elegant solutions to the complication in current production. The Pellaton automatic winding system uses ceramic components at high-wear points for long-term durability. Circular graining, Geneva stripes, and blued screws finish the movement, visible through the sapphire caseback. On the Wrist & PriceWhere the steel version wears with confident heft, the titanium wears with assured lightness, yielding a different kind of presence, and for a perpetual calendar, arguably the more honest one. The monochromatic grey execution across the case, bracelet, and dial provides a seamless, continuous surface, giving the IW344904 a focus that the blue-dialed steel reference doesn't share. It's a perpetual calendar that looks like it’s meant to mean business rather than pleasure. And for the price, you are getting a lot of watch for the money.Sticker Price USD 44,000.

For Watches and Wonders 2026, that progression reaches its apex. Fifty years after Gérald Genta's original Ingenieur SL defined the template, IWC introduces the collection's first tourbillon, and does so without apology for its ambition. The Ingenieur Tourbillon 41 in 5N gold is the flagship that the collection has been building toward. Things to Know About the WatchLimited to 100 pieces, the Ingenieur Tourbillon 41 (Ref. IW345901) is built entirely from 18K 5N gold—case, integrated bracelet, bezel, crown, and crown guards. The five functional screws that secure the bezel to the case back ring are made of 18K Armor Gold, an IWC proprietary alloy with significantly higher hardness than conventional gold. The case and bracelet links are satin-finished with polished edges, a combination that plays particularly well in gold, drawing out the angular geometry of Genta's underlying design. The olive-green “Grid” stamped dial—a hallmark of the modern Ingenieur—contrasts the warm tones of the case, adding real depth and texture. Hour and minute hands are gold-plated; the appliques are solid gold, individually set by hand. The flying minute tourbillon sits at 6 o'clock, suspended from gold-coated bridges. The cage consists of 56 individual parts and weighs just 0.635 grams. An integrated tourbillon stop allows the mechanism to be brought to a complete halt for setting the time to the second. The pallet lever and escape wheel are treated with IWC's Diamond Shell technology, an innovative coating that reduces friction and improves energy flow. The MovementThe Ingenieur Tourbillon 41 is powered by the IWC-manufactured calibre 82905. Its Pellaton winding system uses the rotor's motion in both directions to build an 80-hour power reserve. Components subject to high stress, such as the automatic wheel, the clicks, and the rotor bearing, are made from zirconium oxide ceramic, virtually eliminating wear. The automatic bridge and rotor are gold-plated and finished with Geneva stripes. The oscillating weight in 22K gold carries an integrated Probus Scafusia medallion. On the Wrist & PriceA full 18K 5N gold case—quite heavy, weighing 264 grams—with a flying tourbillon is a statement that requires no qualification. What IWC has achieved here is not merely adding the complication to the Ingenieur platform, but integrating it in a way that feels architecturally considered. The tourbillon aperture at 6 o'clock, the satin-polished gold surfaces, and the olive dial pull the whole watch together. At a 100-piece limitation, this is the definitive expression of the current Ingenieur generation and one of the more consequential pieces from IWC in recent memory.Sticker Price CHF 125,000—approx USD 160,000.

Limited to just 500 pieces, this latest addition to the Master Control collection demonstrates how the Grande Maison continues to evolve its classical complications for contemporary tastes. A Study in Sophisticated ContrastsThe star of this release is undoubtedly the dial execution. The two-tone grey finish creates a visually striking yet refined aesthetic, with alternating shades of light and dark grey defining distinct sections across the face. The lighter-toned center houses the day and month windows at 12 o'clock, displayed on crisp white discs with black text for optimal legibility. Below, the moon phase indication nestles within the small seconds subdial, set against a romantic blue sky dotted with stars.What makes this dial particularly captivating is how the grained texture interacts with light differently across the various grey tones. The contrast is further enhanced by the dark grey hour ring and the light grey minutes chapter, while the outermost date ring returns to dark grey. Small flashes of red on the date indicators and hand provide discrete pops of color that enliven the monochromatic palette. Technical Innovation Meets Aesthetic RefinementPowering this timepiece is Jaeger-LeCoultre's in-house Calibre 866, an automatic movement delivering an impressive 70-hour power reserve and composed of 344 parts and 34 jewels. The complete calendar complication displays day, date, month, and moon phases—functionality that traces its lineage back to JLC's pioneering triple calendar movements of the 1940s.Perhaps the most ingenious feature is the date hand's rapid-gliding mechanism. Once monthly, between the 15th and 16th, the red-tipped date hand leaps swiftly across 90 degrees, ensuring the moon phase display remains unobstructed—a thoughtful detail that speaks to JLC's commitment to both technical excellence and aesthetic harmony. Design Heritage and Modern AppealThe Master Control collection, launched in 1992 and named after JLC's groundbreaking "1000 Hours Control" certification, has long represented the brand's philosophy of technical rigor paired with stylistic restraint. This new model maintains all the collection's signature design codes: elongated triangular applied indices, Arabic numerals at 12, 3, and 9 o'clock, and the distinctive faceted Dauphine hands with their polished and brushed surfaces.The 40 mm stainless steel case continues this theme of understated elegance, with polished bezels and lug tops contrasting beautifully with finely brushed sides. Completed with a black calfskin strap and interchangeable double folding clasp, the overall presentation exudes the relaxed sophistication that has made the Master Control collection enduringly popular.
