Grand Seiko watches are known for their low-profile design and high impact. Such is the design of the Grand Seiko Mechanical; simple and sophisticated with a very unique personality. The watch reflects the simplicity of time and its wearer. The stick indexes designed at the outer rim give the watch a very neat and elegant look. The watch has a three-day power reserve feature, and it's waterproof as well.

Girard-Perregaux Laureato Absolute Passion // Introducing, Specs & Price
Introduced earlier this year during the Festival Automobile International in Paris, this Laureato Absolute Passion is decked out in racing red and sleek black livery to celebrate the brand's partnership with the event. A limited edition of 50 watches, this chronograph joins the edgier, more contemporary Laureato Absolute watch sub-family distinguished by black PVD-coated titanium cases, impressive 300m water-resistance and in-house movements. Origins of the LaureatoWhen it was first introduced in 1975, the Laureato was positioned as the brand's take on the luxury sports watch, a new genre that had just hit the markets in 1972 onboard Gerald Genta's trailblazing Royal Oak for Audemars Piguet. Originally presented in a matte steel case with touches of gold, the modular design of the Laureato was distinguished by its polished gold octagonal bezel, a cushion-shaped case, an integrated bracelet with a gold stripe and a white hobnail pattern embossed on the dial. Revisited in 2016 after year
Watch brands with a weblog - Monochrome Watches
Most watch brands are present on Facebook these days. While most brands hardly make the most of social media, some brands (or watchmakers) really use these new media to share more than just a press release.Social media are becoming an important factor in communications. Not only in personal communications, but also businesses blend in and use these communication channels. When internet arose, most watch brands didn’t hurry to get an online appearance. Years later, when social media are booming, the same thing happens. Most watch brands do have a Facebook page by now. In 2008, Cartier was the watch brand with the most ‘fans’, almost 10,000. Today they have no less than 37,000 Facebook ‘fans’. The big question however is if they use this medium to really interact with?their Facebook ‘fans’? Ad - Scroll to continue with article
The Colllector's Series - @Watchesbelike Patek Philippe Nautilus 5711/1A
I guess at MONOCHROME we do not have to tell you about cultural differences; however, there’s one that stands out for people who are passionate about horology and wristwatches in particular. Watch collectors uniting in a club-like manor is something that did not happen, or hardly, in mainland Europe. Most European watch collectors prefer to fly under the radar and do not feel any urge to share their, often pretty expensive, collection with others. That is until Instagram came along and made it easy to meet like-minded collectors, in complete anonymity. And that’s how I got in touch with @Watchesbelike. He’s a 34-year old finance professional and watch collector who lives in Paris and can be found under this alias on Instagram. We exchanged quite a bit about watches in general, collecting and his love for his Patek Philippe Nautilus 5711A. Although he's been asked to, he would never sell it. He explains why.@Watchesbelike – In 2013, I said (…) that even for
Hands-On - the 2020 Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Control Memovox
Alerts, beeps, bings, vibrations and buzzing sounds are the bane of 21st-century technological gadgets. Whether it's a wake-up tone, an incoming email, a Whatsapp message or a reminder to walk more steps, we are bombarded by acoustic signals 24/7. For those of you pining for the simpler days when a spade was called a spade, and you didn't have 1,500 contacts in your phone, Jaeger-LeCoultre's Memovox will strike a chord. Actually, a hammer to be precise. Launched in 1950, the Memovox is a mechanical alarm wristwatch that still delights watch lovers today. In June 2020, Jaeger-LeCoultre unveiled two Master Control Memovox models: a limited edition Memovox Timer and the Memovox time & date model. Although the nostalgia for the first 1950s Memovox models has been respected, the aesthetic upgrades executed on the Master Control case give the watch a more contemporary air. The movement has also benefitted from a comprehensive revision, and the incorporation of a sapphire caseback means t
Seiko Prospex Automatic Chronograph 50th Anniversary Limited Edition SRQ029 - Hands-On, Price
1969 was a prolific year for the watch industry. We could talk about the Moon Landing or the introduction of several iconic timepieces. But when it comes to innovation and pure watchmaking, 1969 should be remembered mainly for the introduction of the first automatic chronograph movements. Among them were the El Primero and the Chronomatic/Calibre 11, but a third manufacture also came on the market with this technology… Seiko. To commemorate this important milestone in the brand’s history, here’s the Seiko Prospex Automatic Chronograph 50th Anniversary Limited Edition SRQ029.The new 50th Anniversary Limited Edition SRQ029 is part of a sub-collection comprising two watches, the other one celebrating the 55th anniversary of Japan and Seiko’s first chronograph, as shown below (and also reviewed on MONOCHROME).
