Breguet Classique Tourbillon 5367 Compared to Antique Breguet Pocket-watches - Review (Specs & Price)
The restrained and discreet watches of the Classique Collection are unequivocal, unmistakable members of the Breguet family. Without even thinking about it, they are immediately recognisable as a Breguet. This is all due to what the Maison names the “unmistakable signs” or the quintessential design codes used by the brand for over two centuries. In order to understand exactly what this means in modern-day creations, we’ve visited the Breguet Museum in Paris, talked with Emmanuel Breguet and bring you the brand’s latest creation – the?Breguet Classique Tourbillon 5367 – next to two of the most important and earliest creations of?Abraham-Louis Breguet.“Revival piece”, “vintage-inspired watches” or “re-edition”… You’ve certainly heard these expressions dozens of times. For over 10 years now, most brands are playing on the vintage trend by recreating some of their most glorious 1950s, 1960s and more recentl

Back To Basics With The TAG Heuer Carrera Calibre 18 Chronograph - Monochrome-Watches
TAG Heuer is a sentimental favorite for me. The black and gold 1000 Professional Diver 980.029N was one of the first watches I can remember lusting after. A beat-up pre-owned Formula 1 watch was as close as I ever got to the 1000 Pro. Over the years I've watched the brand go through some funky gyrations as they experimented with smartphones (groan!) and leather goods (not such a groan) culminating in that famous period several years back when you needed to click through a ridiculous number of menu options before you could see a single watch on their website! Perhaps the identity crisis is coming to a close as we see the Heuer logo adorn a watch meant for racing.One of my friends from university and I have a plan: to make it to age 60 and begin racing classic cars. Frankly, we've both struggled to get to the point where buying, restoring and racing a car in a race like the Mille Miglia or Carrera Panamerica is not such crazy idea. We took our beatings when it was time to get beat-up. We

IWC Big Pilot Perpetual Calendar Tourbillon Le Petit Prince IW504803
One thing is to associate a line of watches with a famous air squadron or even with a specific type of aeroplane, but when IWC came up with the idea of adopting Antoine de Saint-Exupery’s beloved character, Le Petit Prince, it flew straight to the hearts of many watch enthusiasts. Not only was the author of Le Petit Prince a pilot and adventurer, but his character and his humanist values have inspired generations of readers, young and old. Since IWC’s partnership with Saint-Exupery’s heirs was consolidated in 2006, the “Le Petit Prince” special editions have become brand favourites. The latest model, the Big Pilot’s Watch?IW504803, is a 50-piece edition in luxurious 18k gold with a spectacular combination of a perpetual calendar and flying tourbillon.Le Petit Prince EditionsWith models ranging from straightforward time and date with power reserve indicator all the way up the complications ladder to GMT watches, chronographs, perpetual calendars, comb

3 New Rado Ceramica Models, All With Automatic Movements - Monochrome Watches
In 2016, Rado relaunched its iconic Ceramica line, following a complete design refresh by highly respected industrial designer Konstantin Grcic. The geometric watches were certainly appealing from an aesthetic standpoint, however, they were powered by quartz movements and consequently didn't really make it onto the Monochrome radar. This year, Rado unveiled three new additions to the Ceramica family and we are happy to report that, for the first time, they are all powered by automatic movements.The Rado CeramicaFor many watch lovers, Rado will always be considered first and foremost a fashionable design brand. No one expects the company to come out with super complicated watches or unveil grounding breaking technical advancements (like the Zenith DEFY LAB). And yet, Rado is still a pioneer in its own right. When the Ceramica collection was unveiled in 1990, it was a big deal. This was one of the first examples of this hi-tech material being used in large scale production in the luxury
