Weekly Watch Photo - Glashutte Original PanoInverse XL - Monochrome Watches
This isn’t the first time that we feature some of Jocke’s photos in our Weekly Watch Photo. It was actually the legacy of his ‘wet Sea-Dweller’ photo?that inspired the Weekly Watch Photo.?Judging from the photos he shares, Jocke is a fan of German watch brands. Besides the A. Lange & Sohne 1815 that we already showed you here, he also owns a Dornbluth & Sohne (later more about this one) and several Glashutte Original timepieces, like the Panoinverse XL that we show you today. While most watches from A. Lange & Sohne and Glashutte Original are pure watch pornography on the wrist, they keep things courteous because the mind-blowing movements are movement down ‘on the wrist’. Not so the Panoinverse XL, that shows its beauty in all its naked glory. Ad - Scroll to continue with article GO’s Panoinverse XL caused q
The New Chopard L.U.C. QF Jubilee Limited Edition - hands-on
In 1996, Chopard and Karl-Friedrich Scheufele proudly inaugurated the Fleurier Manufacture and introduced a superb micro-rotor movement, the calibre 1.96. This gave birth to the L.U.C series of watches, embodying Chopard's finest watchmaking expertise. On the occasion of Watches & Wonders 2021, Chopard releases an elegant sector dial limited edition watch to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the collection. And not only is this Chopard L.U.C. QF Jubilee handsome, but it's also the first L.U.C stainless steel timepiece with Fleurier Quality Foundation certification.A simple but unapologetically elegant tribute to Chopard's Haute Horlogerie collection, the L.U.C. QF Jubilee is released in a 25-piece limited edition. This timeless and understated dress watch comes in a 39mm stainless steel case measuring just 8.9mm in height.

IWC Big Pilots Watch Perpetual Calendar TOP GUN Ceratanium Review
With roots that go back to the 1940s and, more importantly, a production history that started in the mid-1990s, IWC‘s Pilot’s Watch collection is one of the brand’s most established ranges, and it comprises almost all complications and movements that the brand has managed to create over the years. Of course, Kurt Klaus’ perpetual calendar is no exception to the rule, and the Big Pilot's Watch Perpetual Calendar has been seen, even recently, in multiple editions, such as the new Racing Green or the blue-on-steel model of the permanent collection. But today, it’s a TOP GUN watch that is released, which means tactical black colour scheme. But what’s more interesting here is not the look, but the materials, as we’re looking at the brand’s first watch entirely made of Ceratanium, case AND bracelet. Meet the new IWC Big Pilot's Watch Perpetual Calendar TOP GUN Ceratanium IW503604.?If you think a bit… The overall idea behind this watch cou
Weekly Watch Photo: Omega Speedmaster to celebrate 45th Anniversary of Apollo 11 - Monochrome-Watches
That’s one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind. These words from Neil Armstrong still resonate in the heart of everyone on earth, even 45 years after the Apollo 11 team landed on the Moon. Of course, Armstrong, Aldrin and Collins had tons of the best equipment with them but the one that clearly appeals most to us is the small,?rudimentary, basic, old-fashioned mechanical Omega Speedmaster strapped onto each of their wrists. Omega can be proud of this history; and to celebrate the 45th anniversary of Apollo 11, they introduced a new limited edition of the Speedmaster Professional.?Today’s?photos, made by our friends at?SpeedyWatches, makes a perfect way to celebrate this monumental milestone in men’s history.?Today, July 20th 2014, marks the 45th anniversary of?the iconic lunar landing where famous astronauts Neil Armstrong,?Buzz Aldrin and Michael Collins took humankind's first steps on the moon. Everyone can imagine how crazy these moments were - of cour

After several collections based on the Heritage Black Bay, Tudor Watches gets back into the game of the rugged, professional-oriented and modern watches with a new version of its tool watch: the Pelagos. After a first version introduced in 2012, with a black dial, followed by a revamp in 2015, with the addition of a blue dial and the introduction of the manufacture movement, the Pelagos is back again, this time in a variation that worthy of the title “the coolest”. Please say hello to the Tudor Pelagos LHD 25610TNL, or the lefty version with cream indexes and red “Pelagos” printing.The concept of the left-handed watch isn’t new to Tudor. This?Tudor Pelagos LHD is a actually a nod to the past, paying tribute to a watch made for the French navy in 1961, the Tudor 9401 left-hand, with a black dial and snowflake hands (you can see the link already…). Back then some of the left-handed divers reported issues when wearing the watch on their left arm and so
