Introducing The A. Lange & Sohne 1815 Rattrapante Perpetual Calendar Limited Edition With Pink Gold Dial
Ten years ago, in 2013, A. Lange & Sohne unveiled the extraordinary 1815 Rattrapante Perpetual Calendar alongside the Grand Complication watch, which featured an array of impressive functions. While the Grand Complication garnered significant attention due to its size and price, the smaller and slightly less complicated (and more accessible, relatively speaking) 1815 Rattrapante Perpetual Calendar received widespread acclaim – and some polarizing views. A. Lange & Sohne has now introduced a new limited edition of the stunning 1815 Rattrapante Perpetual Calendar timepiece, featuring a beautiful salmon dial… But being a Lange, this means solid pink gold and not a simple galvanic treatment.This time the 1815 Rattrapante Perpetual Calendar is presented in a familiar three-piece construction case crafted of 18-carat white gold.

Hands-On - Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Selfwinding 37mm 15550ST
Refreshing a watch that has marked the identity of a brand for fifty years, which saved the brand from the onslaught of quartz in the 1970s and gave birth to an entirely new genre known as the luxury sports watch, is a delicate balancing act. One too many tweaks and you risk altering its gene pool; no change at all, and you perpetuate a dinosaur. As our readers know, Gerald Genta’s 1972 luxury stainless steel sports watch, christened the Royal Oak, marked a before and after in watch design, spawning one of the most competitive segments in the watch market today. Although the stars of the 50th-anniversary celebrations of the Royal Oak were the?RO Jumbo Extra-Thin 16202 and the Openworked 16204, the brand announced that the range of permanent Royal Oaks would also be updated throughout 2022, which includes this RO Selfwinding 37mm with a new automatic movement. As you will discover, the facelift in no way alters the physiognomy of Genta’s dynamic design but refines its silhou

Louis Erard Excellence Regulator x Eric Giroud / Hands-On, Specs, Price
Somewhere in between the bold Bauhaus interpretation of the Regulator with Alain Silberstein and the more classic regulator configuration in the brand's Excellence collection lies this collaboration with Eric Giroud. First presented at Baselworld 2019 – and the first collaboration piece with an external designer – Eric Giroud's redesigned Excellence Regulator marks a new direction for the brand. By embracing a classic regulator layout and placing it in the hands of a contemporary designer, Louis Erard proves that what's old can be new again. Watch designer Eric Giroud meets Louis ErardEric Giroud is a multi-faceted designer. From his initial architecture studio to graphic design, packaging and product design, Giroud got a taste for watches in 1997 and has never looked back.
