Introducing The Green IWC Big Pilot Perpetual Calendar IW503608
While all the attention was focused (rightfully so) on the return of the Genta-inspired Ingenieur watch during the Geneva watch fair, IWC actually had more watches to present… at least discreetly. We’ve covered already the new Top Gun Chronograph 41 in black and blue, but more pilot watches have been unveiled. And one of them goes big and green, just like we like it. Here’s the IWC Big Pilot Perpetual Calendar Green, and there’s a surprise on the back of the strap…Know as the reference IW503608, this new model doesn’t reinvent the wheel, if you allow me the expression. It is, in fact, a new colour to an already existing model, the updated BP Perpetual that was introduced in 2021, with a blue dial, a steel case and a blue leather strap. And now, well there’s a green edition – following what IWC has done already with both the BP43 watch here and its more elegant collection, with two green Portugieser models. Ad - Scroll to contin

Hands-On IWC Big Pilots Watch Big Date Edition 150 Years (SIHH 2018) Specs & Price
After introducing several editions of the?Portugieser (including this superb automatic chronograph and?this constant force tourbillon) as well as an unexpected yet desirable?“Tribute to Pallweber” watch, IWC continues to deploy its 150-year concept of limited editions across all its collections – and today we move into Pilot’s watches. Meet the?IWC Big Pilot's Watch Big Date Edition 150 Years ref. 5105, the first Flieger watch of the brand with a big date display.Renewing the concept of the Big Pilot’s watch isn’t an easy task. Indeed, not only does this real piece of history have roots that can be traced back to WWII but its design is governed by precise codes. Adding complications to this watch has to be done with subtlety, in order not to ruin the uncluttered style that is characteristic of Pilot's Watches – remember that, as military instruments, these watches were meant to be as legible as possible, hence their large diameter, their lumino

Introducing: The Ulysse Nardin Diver Atoll with Chrysocolla Dial
Ulysse Nardin has always been associated with the sea, from its early days as a purveyor of precision marine chronometers to its current nautical-inspired collection, which includes classical references like the Marine Torpilleur or more contemporary, high-performance Divers. Offered in three case sizes, the more compact 39mm model returns with a stunning mottled neon blue and green stone dial.Released in 2021 as part of a trilogy, the 39mm Diver has appeared with gem-set bezels, like this tutti-frutti Diver Rainbow and diamond-set bezels on the Diver Starry Night. The latest reference has a 39mm stainless steel case with a thickness of 11mm and contrasting brushed and polished finishings. In line with the Diver collection's commitment to sustainability, 80% of the steel used for the case is recycled. Ad - Scroll to continue with article The case and its closed

The Titanium Zenith Defy Revival Shadow
There is the funky blue, the ruby red and the gradient brown, and we were right to expect another bright-coloured edition of the Defy Revival by Zenith to join the series (like the blue A3651), but no. The brand opted for “dark tones and muted textures” for the new watch in the Defy Revival series, in line with the Chronomaster Revival Shadow, released by Zenith in 2020. The new monochromatic Zenith Defy Revival Shadow looks stealthily good and contemporary but keeps its full vintage flare.It is impressive how a watch conceived half a century ago can be provided with a new look with so few changes. The 37mm case of the new Defy Revival Shadow, including its distinctive fourteen-sided bezel, is made from titanium and is micro-blasted to achieve the desired matte finish. The iconic “ladder” bracelet, designed by Gay Freres exclusively for Zenith in 1969 and until now produced in stainless steel only, is now crafted in titanium and gets the same treatment as the ca
