Grand Seiko Mechanical models have been manufactured with a very simple design, and they sit on durable as well as soft brown leather straps. The crocodile leather straps have very distinct markings that make the watch appear very exotic. The case of the watch is set at 39.5mm with a balancing thickness of 13.1mm, ensuring the ideal size of the watch. Moreover, the simple stick indexes are set around the rim of the watch. On the whole, it's a very elegant watch.

First Look: The Daniel Roth Tourbillon Rose Gold
Seen by many collectors and watch insiders as one of the most important names of the indie watchmaking scene, Daniel Roth was instrumental in the rebirth of the Breguet brand and as an initiator of the comeback of high-end mechanical watchmaking after the quartz crisis – check this in-depth article for all the details. Recently taken over by the watch division of Louis Vuitton, Daniel Roth made a resounding comeback last year with the Tourbillon Souscription, a modern watch inspired by the all-important original Tourbillon C187. The story continues and following the 20 initial watches in yellow gold, the Daniel Roth Tourbillon now comes back in rose gold as a permanent member of the collection – and with several little updates to make it unique.The story of Monsieur Daniel Roth and his eponymous brand is fairly complex, but it’s a fascinating one anyway. Born and raised in his grandfather's watchmaking workshop in Switzerland, trained as a watchmaker in France, Roth s
Parmigiani Fleurier Tonda PF Flying Tourbillon (Price)
Last year Parmigiani entered the hyper-competitive realm of the luxury sports watch with its Tonda PF collection, a move instigated by its new CEO, Guido Terreni. Debuting with an automatic time-and-date (micro-rotor), a chronograph, an annual calendar and an impressive split-seconds chronograph with a gold engine in 2021, Parmigiani unveils a sophisticated flying tourbillon during this 2022 edition of Watches & Wonders. Although a flying tourbillon might not be everybody's idea of a complication for a sports watch, the refinement, finishings and deliberate minimalism that characterise the Tonda PF collection work beautifully in this context. Fitted with Parmigiani's ultra-thin automatic PF517 movement with micro-rotor, the full-platinum Tonda PF Flying Tourbillon follows in the footsteps of the majestic platinum Tonda PF Split Seconds Chronograph launched in 2021.Bare essentialsSimplicity and refinement are the operative words here. The case and dial, crafted in platinum, provide
Rimowa Watch Case - Monochrome Watches
Approximately 99.9% of the articles we publish are stories about watches. That’s what’s MONOCHROME is all about. However, recently I saw a watch box made by Rimowa. You know, that brand that makes beautiful aluminium suitcases and trolleys, dare I say it, iconic aluminium suitcases. The Rimowa watch case looks very Rimowa and is executed in the exact same iconic aluminium looks. We’re all watch enthusiasts (to say the least) and I wanted to have a closer look, so I reached out to the brand and asked for a review model. Would this make the best ‘travel watch case’ on the market??In the MONOCHROME Shop, we also sell watch rolls and watch cases. Since we’re watch collectors ourselves, we always keep an eye on useful (and sometimes more beautiful than useful) watch accessories. Looking at what’s available in terms of watch cases and boxes, there’s quite some variety. From the (often lousy quality) piano lacquered wooden boxes you can find on
Introducing: The Montblanc Iced Sea Automatic 0 Oxygen 38mm
As a brand that has always fostered its connection to Europe's highest mountain, Montblanc’s Iced Sea collection of dive watches in 2022 was a surprise. With dials inspired by the Mer de Glace, the largest glacier in the Mont Blanc massif, the ISO certified dive watches can fathom depths of 300 metres. For 2025, Montblanc expands its Iced Sea Automatic Date collection with two new models in smaller 38mm case sizes, now with Zero Oxygen cases. In tune with the trend for smaller unisex diameters, the more compact dimensions are complemented with new glacier dial colours in frosty white and arctic light blue.The new 38mm models come in stainless steel cases with a thickness of 12.3mm, decorated with predominantly brushed finishes and polished bevels. Equipped with the brand's novel Zero Oxygen cases, seen with the Iced Sea 4810, a blue seal between the sapphire crystal and the case prevents fogging and ensures the components will not oxidise. The unidirectional dive bezel matches th
Jean-Marc Pontroue, CEO of Panerai, about Paneristi, Challenges and the Future - Monochrome Watches
Panerai is, without a doubt, one of the most followed brands in the industry - think Paneristi - and one of the watch manufactures with the clearest identity; remember that the Radiomir and Luminor lines found their roots in the 1930s. Being the CEO of such a company isn't an easy task and change is the main enemy, even though necessary. In order to understand more about the future of the brand, we sat down with its recently appointed CEO, Jean-Marc Pontroue (who can be seen here) to discuss all things Panerai.Frank Geelen – When did you get interested in watches? Was there a watch in the family that started things or anything like this?Jean-Marc Pontroue –?I have been working all my life in the luxury industry, mainly in fashion before moving to leather goods and accessories. Watches came rather late in my career path and I got to work on the development of the watch department for Montblanc in 2000. Then I moved to Roger Dubuis in 2011 and now I'm at Panerai. So, I'd say
