Pre-SIHH 2019 - IWC Pilots Watch Double Chronograph TOP GUN Ceratanium (Specs & Price)
It’s official… 2019 will be the year of the Pilot’s Watch at IWC. Don’t expect to see a remodelling of the entire range – that was already done in 2016, with a new Big Pilot and the Mark XVIII, for instance. However, do expect to see some nice new editions, some good old designs brought back to life, and some mechanical improvements. But before the real fireworks start at the SIHH 2019 in January, IWC teases us with four new pieces, including this new Pilot's Watch Double Chronograph TOP GUN Ceratanium ref.?IW371815.Some well-known foundationsThis new?Double Chronograph?IW371815 is the proud descendant of two iconic pieces at IWC.

It is well-known that IWC has a long history of pilot’s watches, mainly with WWII B-Uhr (which inspired the Big Pilot) however, the commercial comeback of pilot’s watches was made

Hublot Spirit Of Big Bang Meca-10 // Introducing, Specs & Price
Hublot is certainly most known for its luxury sports watches with shaped cases, fusion of material and integrated straps. There is, however, another collection at Hublot that we somehow tend to overlook, a collection of shaped watches, with a barrel-like case, the Spirit Of Big Bang. Part of the 2020 novelties presented in Dubai, Hublot introduced its 10-day power reserve movement in this collection with the Spirit Of Big Bang Meca-10.This combination is a first for Hublot. Indeed, for the first time the Spirit Of Big Bang,?a collection that is gaining importance at Hublot, is receiving the popular Meca-10 manufacture calibre. Why only now…? Well, since the Spirit Of Big Bang has a shaped case, encasing the Meca-10 movement required some important adaptations on the movement to make it shaped just like the case of this watch. Behind this watch lies the wish of Hublot to have harmony between cases and movements, meaning that the mechanics should follo

Hands-On - Maurice Lacroix Aikon Skeleton 39mm (Specs & Price)
I think most of us can agree that Tissot offers one of the best values for an integrated mechanical sports watch with the PRX Powermatic 80. Less expensive models like the Dumoreau DM01 Automatic and Batavi Architect are intriguing, but the PRX is a mature, well-executed piece from a major Swiss brand. Between this and pricier luxury models like the Bell & Ross BR05 sits the Maurice Lacroix Aikon collection, introduced in 2016 and expanded in 2018 with more accessible automatic variants. Slightly more luxurious, better equipped, and mechanically coherent, the collection has a lot to offer. The new Aikon Skeleton 39mm brings an eye-catching skeletonized movement to the latest, universal case size.All about accessible luxuryMaurice Lacroix is known for accessible luxury with the Aikon automatic collection really emphasizing that. The sports watches come in many sizes for men and women, but the 39mm Aikon Automatic has a universal case diameter with a broad, unisex appeal. Launched in
