Introducing the Handsome Berneron Mirage Prussian Blue & Sienna
Where do we start with a watch that seemingly breaks traditional conventions regarding style and substance? With the visionary individual that created it seems like a good start. Sylvain Berneron, the founder of his eponymous brand, and the former Chief Product Officer of Breitling and, through the support of Breitling CEO Georges Kern, was enabled to set out on his own. In development for a couple of years, Sylvain has been teasing the launch of his Mirage over the past few months. Now that we have a complete image, it turns out the Mirage is a truly mesmerizing watch, a debut piece that has certainly grabbed the full attention of collectors and journalists! But there’s far more to the story of Berneron, and the Mirage for that matter, than just an enticing design.Sylvain Berneron and his wife, Marie-Alix Berneron, set out to create a unique watch from top to bottom. His vision was not to be limited by existing design conventions, and no compromises were made to make his dream w

First Look: Hublot Big Bang Unico Orange and Green Ceramic
The Big Bang exploded on the watch scene in 2005, converting Hublot into a major-league player. Even bigger news for the brand came in 2009 with the launch of Hublot's first manufacture movement. Known as the Unico, this in-house flyback chronograph movement was first used for the King Power collection and then inside a new line of Big Bang Unico models. Similar to the original Big Bang, their cases were larger, the chronograph pushers were round, and they featured a push-button mechanism to swap straps. For 2024, two new Big Bang Unico ceramic models join the collection. Alongside a dark green version and marking a first for the brand, the case of one model is crafted in vibrant orange ceramic, a colour rarely seen in the gamut of ceramic watches.Over the years, the Big Bang Unico has appeared in countless case materials, including a recent version made from recycled Nespresso capsules and coffee grounds (!) and comes in 44mm and 42mm case sizes. Renowned for its fusion of different m
