All New Hublot Watches of LVMH Watch Week 2023
2023 has kicked off with the LVMH Watch Week 2023 where Bulgari, TAG Heuer, Hublot and Zenith join forces to present some of their novelties in Singapore. As part of the new models presented by Hublot for the beginning of this year, we have a modern take on the Classic Fusion and several new versions of Big Bangs or Spirit of Big Bang models. Here's an overview of everything that has been presented by the brand.Hublot Classic Fusion Original 42mm, 38mm and 33mmThe origins of Hublot go back to 1980 with a luxury sports watch standing out with unprecedented combinations of materials, in particular gold and rubber. Hublot revisits its emblematic Classic Fusion in three different sizes – 42mm, 38mm or 33mm – each available in 3 materials – steel, ceramic or gold. The overall look is close to the original. Yet, there are several changes. Starting with the case, it has been modernized with a simpler, more angular design and black details wedged in between the case middle an
The 2021 Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch Professional Master Chronometer
Today is Tuesday… and in terms of watches, you know what it means. Omega didn’t wait long in 2021 to bring its first novelty for “Speedy Tuesday” and, clearly, this is a very important one. Today, Omega updates its most iconic watch, a model that has been practically untouched since the late 1960s, with the current reference dating back to 1997. We, of course, talk about the Speedmaster Moonwatch Professional, the classic 42mm stainless steel reference with an asymmetrical case, the core member of the collection. Indeed, not a watch that can be updated without consequences. And here is the new?Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch Professional, which introduces the Master Chronometer Co-Axial Calibre 3861 in a regular production Speedy, with small (but cool) visual updates and new iterations in Sedna and Canopus gold.The Speedmaster Moonwatch Professional, until nowWhile this article isn't the place to make the complete history of the Omega Speedmaster – for this, y
Junghans launches two groovy 1972 Competition limited editions
It's not a well-known piece of trivia, but the German brand Junghans was one of the official timekeepers for the Summer Olympic Games held in Munich in 1972 (the other was Longines). Although we associate the brand from the Black Forest with minimalist Bauhaus-driven designs, Junghans also played an important role in the Munich Olympics, providing timekeeping instruments for disciplines like the 100m, archery and rowing. Junghans even developed an electronic start control, a Multi Counter device to track boats individually and produced the world's first colour finish line photos accurate to one-hundredth of a second. To mark the brand's involvement in the Olympic Games, Junghans also produced a series of civilian watches, including a chronograph known as the Olympic Bullhead (ref. 688.10) with a groovy 1970s case powered by a manual-winding Valjoux 7734.? What goes around comes around, and the 1972 model is back to celebrate its 50th birthday in two limited editions: one in stainless s
Introducing The Patek Philippe Aquanaut Luce Annual Calendar 5261R
Patek Philippe’s patented annual calendar mechanism (1996) debuts inside an Aquanaut model for 2023. Presented in a unisex 39.9mm rose gold case with a bluish-grey dial, the annual calendar brings a useful and easy-to-use complication to the Aquanaut family. A new automatic movement with an inverted annual calendar module powers the Aquanaut Luce Annual Calendar.In 1997, Patek Philippe launched its sporty chic Aquanaut, nearly two decades after the debut of its iconic Nautilus luxury steel sports watch. With its rounded octagonal case, clearly inspired by that of the Nautilus, and tropical composite strap, the more modern spirit of the Aquanaut was out to capture a new, younger audience. The Aquanaut Luce, a ladies’ version of the watch, joined the catalogue in 2004. Forgive us for differing, but although the brand catalogues this new model as a ladies’ watch, we think it works exceptionally well as a gent’s watch. Ad - Scroll to continue with article

Vacheron Constantin celebrates their 260th anniversary and for this occasion, they created the most complicated watch in the world (say that out loud like Jeremy Clarkson would do). With no less than 57 complications (that’s no typo, it is indeed fifty-seven!) it outpaces?crushes the former most complicated watch, Patek Philippe’s Calibre 89 that features 33 complications. The list of complications alone is something you could study on (try memorising all 57), because there are quite a few entirely new complications that have never been created in the history of watchmaking. We’re going to show you the various complications, logically grouped, and explained with illustrations; here’s the Vacheron Constantin?Reference 57260 pocket watch.The Vacheron Constantin Ref.57260 with 57 complications, crushes the former world-record of 33 complicationsUnlike the previous ‘most complicated’ watch, which was introduced as a commemorative watch to celebrate the b
