Hands-on with the Richard Mille RM 022 Aerodyne Dual Time Zone - Live photos & price - Monochrome-Watches
What's so special about a Richard Mille watch? We all know about the exclusivity (less than 3,000 pieces per year), the impeccable quality and the celebrity ambassadors. But there are many more features that added up to the success of this highly exclusive watch brand: exclusive materials, astonishing finishing, distinctive complications, innovations and a unique feeling that creates a desirable object. In order to understand what Richard Mille is all about, we've visited the famous Parisian shop Chronopassion to discuss the brand, their watches and to get hands-on with one of the most complicated timepiece in the collection, the Richard Mille RM 022 Aerodyne, featuring a tourbillon, a dual time indicator and…. carbon?nano-fibers.?No doubt about it, the Richard Mille RM 022 Aerodyne is an extraordinary timepiece. We could have stopped here, showed you pictures and it would have been enough to tickle your love for watches. But here we're going to try to explain you why a Richard M

Pre-SIHH 2014: Jaeger-LeCoultre Duometre Unique Travel Time in Rose Gold - Monochrome Watches
When it comes to watches that can indicate time in your own timezone and an additional timezone, you will find there’s a whole world of choice out there. However be aware that you choose one that suits your requirements. There are traveler GMT watches, office GMT watches and worldtimers, all with their own limitations. Except the Jaeger-LeCoultre Duometre Unique Travel Time, which makes it possible to adjust the second timezone to-the-minute. Most worldtimers are build to indicate the time in 24 different timezones around the world, however some nations felt the urge to create an additional timezone and with that they also created a problem for the watch industry. Creating a worldtimer with a ring that rotates once in 24 hours, isn’t going to help for people traveling to Iran (GMT+3.5), Afganistan (GMT+4.5) or India (GMT+5.5). Want to visit Birma? You will have to adjust your worldtimer to GMT+6.5 hours and still keep your hometime at the correct time at home. Vacheron Cons

Watches and Formula 1 - Episode 7 - Williams F1 and Oris - Monochrome Watches
40 years, for some this feels like an eternity (I am only 33 years old) and for others it feels like next to nothing. Making it 40 years in life doesn't require too much effort if you have no serious challenges. But to make it 40 years in the grueling sport of Formula 1 takes skill, determination, luck, good judgment, a lot of money and a clear vision. One of the most illustrious names in the business is celebrating its 40th anniversary this year, so it is only fitting to include it into our Watches & Formula 1 saga; Williams F1 and their long-term watch partner, Oris.Founded by Sir Frank Williams and Sir Patrick Head, the team started in an old carpet warehouse in Didcot, Oxfordshire (UK) in 1977. Prior to that Sir Frank Williams was pushing drivers in F2 and F3000 series, and he subsequently started venturing into F1 in 1969. Fielding a Brabham BT26A with the iconic Ford DFV 3.0 V8 and long-time friend Piers Courage behind the wheel, they scored two second place finishes! A year

First Look: The new Piaget Polo Flying Tourbillon Moonphase
Piaget's luxury sports watch, the Polo, is inspired by the brand’s iconic solid gold 1979 Polo quartz model with horizontal gadroons running across the dial and the integrated bracelet. Revamped from head to toe in 2016 in steel with mechanical movements, the Polo family is represented by complications small and large, from time and date all the way up to chronographs, ultra-thin perpetual calendars and skeletonised models. Marking a first for the collection, the new Polo Flying Tourbillon Moonphase raises the complication stakes with an anti-gravity regulator and astronomical moon phase combo housed inside an elegantly thin yet sporty titanium case with a blue dial. The new watch is powered by Piaget's ultra-thin calibre 642P, first seen inside the 2012 Gouverneur Tourbillon.While the Polo’s stylish cushion-shaped case has appeared in gold and steel, the only other model with a trace of titanium was the Ceramic Skeleton, released in 2024. The new Polo Flying Tourbillon Moo

introducing: A Trio Of Evocative H Moser & Cie X Bucherer Watches
In the world of luxury watch retailers, Bucherer holds a rather special place. Not only has it been announced that has acquired the well-established watch retailer (the biggest in the world), but it also has a long history of collaborative watches. Always revolving around some kind of blue, these Bucherer limited editions can range from relatively affordable to astronomically expensive. As they share a common theme, though, the result is, more often than not, rather striking. The latest special edition pieces to be released see Bucherer return to the creativity of H. Moser & Cie?for a trilogy of watches based on the Pioneer and Endeavour Concept watches.Pioneer Tourbillon Concept AventurineThe first of the three is perhaps the most sporty of the bunch, although I wouldn’t go on a wild adventure with it. The Pioneer Tourbillon Concept Aventurine is based on a watch we’ve seen earlier this year. The rose gold and black DLC-finished titanium case holds a midnight-blue av
