Hands-on Frederique Constant Manufacture Perpetual Calendar, a QP priced under €8,000 (Live photos) - Monochrome Watches
Among the classical watchmaking complications, the perpetual calendar is certainly one of the most desirable, as being a strong technical achievement. Because of what it does (being able to have a watch correctly adjusted for the coming 100 years…), it is sought after by collectors and can be seen as a sort of achievement in a collection. However, as expected, this is not a cheap type of watches. Well, it was not until a few years and it is even truer now, as at Baselworld 2016, a QP priced under 8,000 Euros has been launched, the?Frederique Constant Manufacture Perpetual Calendar. And don’t expect it to be featured with a poor content, as it has several arguments under the hood.What is a Perpetual Calendar and why it isn’t cheap?Before we start with this short technical explanation, we recently published a complete overview on the subject, here. To understand why a perpetual calendar exists, we first have to remind that our calendar, the Gregorian Calendar, is based
The New Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore Selfwinding Chronograph 43mm
Presented in 1993, the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore Chronograph, known as “The Beast,” brought a robust, utilitarian look to the Royal Oak. Since its inception, this watch has been regularly updated, adding for instance a 44mm version in the early 2000s. This year, Audemars Piguet is presenting a complete makeover of its robust chronograph, with a new design, a more ergonomic 43mm case, more refined details on the habillage, interchangeable straps and, mostly, the addition of the brand's integrated selfwinding flyback chronograph, the Calibre 4401. With 5 models honed from stainless steel, 18-carat pink gold or titanium, the new Royal Oak Offshore Selfwinding Chronograph 43mm is already a solid collection.After launching the initial Royal Oak in 1972, which caused a revolution in watch design and introduced us to the concept of a luxury steel sports watch, the Offshore collection almost did the same in 1993 when first presented. It was bolder, more disruptive and defi

Hands-on - Arnold and Son UTTE Skeleton, the thinnest skeleton tourbillon (live pics & price) - Monochrome Watches
Here, at Monochrome-Watches, we always loved the?Arnold and Son UTTE (see our hands-on here) – and for several reasons. First, it is an extremely elegant watch. Second, it is complicated (long power reserve – tourbillon). Third, it is super slim. Finally, it is a real in-house watch. So, when at Baselworld, we’ve been introduced to its latest iteration, the Arnold and Son UTTE Skeleton, now with an open-worked movement, we’ve been pleasantly surprised. And the best piece of news is that it also happens to be?the thinnest skeleton tourbillon on the market. Hands-on with a world record breaker – and a very nice watch.In terms of slim watches, there’s always been a strong competition, whether we’re talking about the slimmest watch – a tittle held by Piaget (of course) with the Altiplano 900P?with its 3.65mm thickness, till the recently introduced Jaeger-LeCoultre?Master Ultra-Thin Squelette measuring only 3.60mm (a watch that also happens to
The Archimedes by Milus, Now in Wild Green (Specs & Price)
The fluid-tight “compressor” or “super-compressor” technology was patented during the 1950s, by Ervin Piquerez SA, a famous watch case manufacturer from Bassecourt in the Swiss Jura. Cases equipped with this technology have given birth to iconic dive watches across many brands, including Jaeger-LeCoultre, Hamilton, Longines, or Bulova. The most famous “compressor” EPSA cases had a dual-crown style, one to wind the movement and set the time (and the date, if any), the other to operate the internal rotating bezel. This distinctive look remains highly popular with dive watch aficionados. Among the watches with such design is the Archimedes by Milus, a modern take on one of the brand's 1960s divers. The model is now presented in a cool green hue.One of the original Milus Archimedes that inspired the modern versionNamed upon the ancient Greek mathematician, physicist and inventor, famous for his principle applying on a body immersed in a fluid, the Archim
