Richard Mille RM 57-01 Phoenix and Dragon - Monochrome-Watches
Alongside the traditional (well, if we use the denomination ‘traditional’ for RM) Richard Mille?watches, all inspired by racing and using some crazy materials – remember the nano-tubes used for the dial of the RM 022 – or amazing complications – see the G-sensor of the RM 36-01 – the brand also has a more distinguished collection, inspired by jewelry and the art of engraving. For this edition of Watch & Wonders, they introduce a follow-up of the RM 057 (that we recently photographed), being the?Richard Mille RM 57-01 Tourbillon Phoenix and Dragon – Jackie Chan.For this RM 57-01, Richard Mille takes his inspiration in the classical Asian myths – the?Phoenix, a supernatural bird, and the Dragon.?Created from 3N rose gold, these legendary figures inhabiting the interior of the movement are carved and incised entirely by hand. Special miniature tools had to be made for the specific artistry required to realise these two creatures. To incr

First Look: The New Cricket-Themed Oris Father Time Limited Edition
Given its complexity and often lethargic pace, cricket is not a sport that pops up in the crosshairs of watch brand alliances. However, in 2022, Oris struck an alliance with the Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC), becoming the first official timekeeper in the club’s history. Celebrating this three-year partnership, Oris and the MMC have collaborated on a special bronze edition of the Big Crown Pointer Date. Christened Father Time in honour of the iconic weathervane placed on top of the clocktower overlooking Lord’s Cricket Ground, the watch chosen for the occasion is also an icon in the brand’s history. Presented in a 40mm bronze case with a matching bronze bracelet, the Oris Father Time is a limited edition of 1,926 pieces commemorating the year the weathervane was gifted to Lord’s Cricket Ground. Father Time, the weathervane at Lord’s Cricket Ground, London, is a mythical figure watching over the passage of time. Donated to the Marylebo

New Colours For The Glashutte Original Seventies Chronograph Panorama Date
A far cry from the gravitas of the more classical Pano and Senator models, the Seventies Chronograph Panorama Date is one of the most original and refreshing models from Glashutte Original. Launched in 2014, the Seventies Panorama Date captures the zeitgeist of that groovy decade with its square TV-shaped case and adoption of vibrant, funky dial colours. Two new limited-edition models with “Golden Bay and “Ocean Breeze” matte dial colours enhance this luxury sports watch collection with a sophisticated integrated flyback chronograph and the brand’s hallmark Panorama Date window.The more demure traditional colours of the first Seventies Chronograph Panorama Date Models eventually gave way to colours more in sync with the collection’s name and spirit. Donning bold, eye-popping colours, the Seventies Chronograph Panorama Date took its first colour dip with gradient dials inspired by the nearby Elbe Sandstone Mountains before moving on to more psychedelic colo

When it comes to Panerai watches, there are a few distinct features that might create the enthusiasm of?Paneristi (Panerai collectors): an iconic dial is a first one. A limited edition is something desirable too. For Watches &?Wonders 2015, both qualities are reunited in 2 new timepieces, with a limited production of 300 pieces each. Here are the?Panerai Luminor 1950 3 Days Titanio DLC PAM00617 and PAM00629, with their DLC coated titanium case, superb and iconic dials and a cool overall look.Both watches, ref.?PAM00617 and PAM00629, are based on the same case and design. They are only differentiated by their dials (and a minor change on the movement). These new limited editions are using the?Luminor 1950 case, meaning the vintage inspired shape that refers to the very first watches created by the Officine to feature the patented crown protection device. There's just a slight difference between the?normal Luminor case and the 1950 one - the latter is 100% faithful to the military wa
