A. Lange & Sohne Grand Lange 1 Moon Phase "25th Anniversary" (Specs & Price)
Prior to the SIHH, A. Lange & Sohne announced a new limited edition celebrating the 25th anniversary of what certainly is its most emblematic watch, the Lange 1 – which was born in 1994 and part of the inaugural “relaunch” collection. However, the brand isn’t only celebrating one model but the entire Lange 1 collection. Not one watch, but 10 models will be introduced throughout the year. Based on this beautiful modern version, here’s the?A. Lange & Sohne Grand Lange 1 Moon Phase “25th Anniversary”.Before we look closely at the new model, a few lines about both the idea behind this 25th anniversary collection and the model that is the base for this limited edition, the Grand Lange 1 Moon Phase. This specific watch was introduced back in 2013 as an evolution of a watch that already was an evolution of the classic Lange 1 – still with us? The Grand Lange 1 Moon Phase relies on the larger case of the?Grand Lange 1, meaning 41mm instea

Omega Seamaster Diver 300M Master Chronometer - Video Review
The Seamaster is one of Omega's oldest collections. It was born in 1948 and modelled after watches that Omega delivered to the Royal Air Force during the Second World War. Over the years, the collection expanded drastically, ranging from elegant timepieces to ultra-robust instruments. 1993 marked another milestone in the evolution of the Seamaster when Omega introduced the Seamaster Professional 300M, a watch that would become an emblem of the brand when it was worn by a secret agent to become the official 007 watch. Today, as part of our in-depth video reviews, we’ll take a closer look at the blue Omega Seamaster Diver 300M Master Chronometer, the latest generation of this all-time classic, one of the definitive dive watches and the perfect modern “Bond Watch”.The destiny of the SMP 300M would change forever after it was worn by Pierce Brosnan in the 1995 film Goldeneye – even though 007 was wearing a quartz model back then. From this moment on, the Seamaster D

Patek Philippe Nautilus 5711/1A-014 Green (Specs & Price)
A few months ago, Mr Stern, president of Patek Philippe, creating sort of a typhoon in the watch collecting community by announcing that the brand’s most sought-after, most successful (and unfortunately most premium-affected) watch, the stainless steel Nautilus 5711 blue dial, was about to be discontinued. Yet, Stern also announced that a final edition of this watch was coming, and here it is. Still the same case, bracelet and movement, still in stainless steel, but now with an olive green dial. Meet the new Patek Philippe Nautilus 5711/1A-014 Green.The Philippe Nautilus 5711A is the most coveted of all luxury sports watches with its sister-from-another-mother, the Royal Oak. Both children of the 1970s, the Nautilus became an absolute success recently and a watch that was virtually impossible to acquire by using classic retailing paths. And because of this rather insane scheme on the market, Patek Philippe and his president Thierry Stern decided to simply… remove it from th

Introducing Omega Speedmaster Calibre 321 Canopus Gold 38.6mm (Price)
Almost exactly 3 years ago, Omega gave Speedmaster fans one of the best possible gifts possible, the re-introduction of the historic Calibre 321, the movement that first equipped the Speedy from 1957 to the late 1960s. This will be followed by another important introduction, that of the Speedmaster Moonwatch Calibre 321, a watch that we extensively reviewed and named the Ultimate Speedmaster. Today, Omega begins the year with a new Speedmaster – just like they did in 2021 with the new Moonwatch – and not just a simple colour or material evolution, but with the new Speedmaster Calibre 321 Canopus Gold, a watch that is all about luxury and being true to the first-ever Speedmaster, the CK2915-1 of 1957 – inside and out.In 1957, as part of a trilogy of watches, Omega launched the Speedmaster, its vision of a racing chronograph. Alongside this watch were two other professional models, the Seamaster 300 and the Railmaster. But the Speedmaster will always have a place of cho

Visiting the Panerai Manufacture, the Brands Highly Efficient Production Site (With Exclusive Live Pics) - Monochrome Watches
Preliminary Note: Until now, very little has been communicated about the production procedures of Panerai watches. We had the opportunity to visit the brand's state-of-the-art manufacture and were impressed by the time and effort invested in quality management.The Panerai manufacture was completed in 2014 and is currently headed by Jean-Marc Pontroue. Located on the outskirts of Neuchatel, the 10,000 sq m building was constructed with eco-compatible standards. It gathers all product development and production teams under one modern roof to operate the brand manufacturing activities (parts, movements and casing). There, 250 people carry out their specialist work.
