TAG Heuer Monaco 2009-2019 Limited Edition CAW211Z.FC6470 - Hands-On, Price
After the four commemorative watches launched so far for the 50th anniversary of the TAG Heuer Monaco, each one celebrating one of these five decades, it is time for the brand to give an end to this story of ultra-limited edition watches. After a funky 1970s green version, a bold, fiery red racing-inspired model for the 1980s,?a sleek industrial-like edition for the 1990s?and a panda-like version for the 2000s, it is time to look at the minimalistic design of the 2010s. Let’s take a look at the new TAG Heuer Monaco 2009-2019 Limited Edition.50TH ANNIVERSARY - 5 DECADES - 5 TAG HEUER MONACOsThe Heuer Monaco was presented in 1969. Back then, it was one impressively modern watch, for two reasons. First, the square shape of its case was bold, unprecedented and was matched with an equally bold, brushed blue dial. Second, inside the case was Calibre 11, a movement known as the Chrono-Matic, which was the result of a joint-venture uniting Heuer, Breitling, Hamilton-Buren and chronograph

Introducing The Simple, Ingenious Artya Depth Gauge (Specs, Price)
Depth gauge watches are quite a rarity on the market and represent a niche industry segment, offering technical solutions to provide a diver with their current diving depth. Some rely on mechanical systems with an aneroid capsule, some use a Bourdon tube, and some use a cut-out that lets water enter a channel; and some are simply over-engineered. The latest watch with this feature is very different in many respects. First, it’s made by a brand that isn’t usually linked to the world of dive watches. Second, and most importantly, the solution used to display the current depth is one of the simplest possible. Using the science of colour, or chromatics, and the way colours disappear underwater, Artya has created a fascinatingly simple Depth Gauge.Let’s talk about the basics first. The Artya Depth Gauge is a classic dive watch, visually speaking and in terms of specifications. The case, with its pointy lugs and angular crown guards, is 43mm in diameter and is made of brush

Introducing The Mighty Oris AquisPro 4000m (Live Pics & Price)
As we’ve seen in this article, recent years have brought us incredible developments in the field of deep diver’s watches – think about Omega and its Ultra-Deep Seamaster 6000m and ’s Deepsea Challenge RLX Titanium, a watch capable to withstand?the pressures at the deepest point on Earth. For many years already, Oris has demonstrated its capacity to create impressive instruments; watches created for a mission. Up until now, the brand’s most powerful model was the Oris AquisPro Date 1000m, a watch that our resident dive watch reviewer Derek named “one serious piece of dive gear.” And it does get even more serious now with Oris’?most water-resistant dive watch ever, the new and (objectively massive) AquisPro 4000m.? Let’s be real immediately, the AquisPro 4000m is a big watch that isn’t meant to be worn on a daily basis. Comfort and elegance were not part of the initial brief… It comes with an oversi

First Look: Raymond Weil Millesime Chronograph Limited Edition Largo Winch
Pop culture icons are increasingly in vogue and luxury watch brands have been surfing the wave of comic?or cartoon-themed timepieces.?Raymond Weil is the latest brand to join this trend with a limited edition inspired by Largo Winch, the gentleman-adventurer created by Belgian cartoonist Philippe Francq. Yet instead of featuring the iconic character on a dial of one of its watches – as is often the case with such collabs – the brand has opted for a different approach, personalising its stylish Millesime Chronograph with Dollar green hues and a custom illustration on the case back.This Raymond Weil Largo Winch Limited Edition is a variation of the Millesime Automatic Chronograph. Like the other models in this collection, it offers an elegant, understated and retro-inspired design – perfectly capturing the lifestyle and allure of the playboy-businessman-gentleman-adventurer, Largo Winch. Rather than leaning on bold branding/collab elements, Raymond Weil has opted for a
