Hands-on with the Richard Mille RM 67-01 Automatic Extra Flat (Live photos, specs & price) - Monochrome Watches
Watches made by Richard Mille are usually bold, extremely technical, rather large and not really?discreet. Nothing wrong in that… That’s also part of the pleasure. Except a few watches, like the RM 033 we reviewed a few weeks ago, we can’t really add the word elegant and dress next to Richard Mille watches. And this is especially the case?when it comes to tonneau-shaped watches, a style that made the brand so easily recognizable. For the SIHH 2016, the brand decided to change that, with the ?Richard Mille RM 67-01 Automatic, their first Extra-Flat and elegant watch with the iconic RM shape. Will it meet?our expectations? Let’s find out.When we first talked?about the?Richard Mille RM 67-01, in our pre-SIHH 2016 article, we?were?rather impressed and pleased.

The Ulysse Nardin Diver Noronna Arctic Night
If anybody outside the watch world were to ask what some of the biggest trends in watchmaking are today, the answer would undoubtedly include ‘collaborations’ and ‘sustainability‘. Ulysse Nardin is no stranger to collaborations, and for its latest Diver, it teams up with Norwegian outdoor sportswear brand Norr?na to produce the Diver Norr?na Arctic Night. Sheathed in dark sustainable materials – or at least materials with a lower carbon footprint – the Diver Norr?na Arctic Night is a limited edition of 29 pieces and comes with a GoreTex? Pro Norr?na jacket to accompany you on your next Arctic adventure.United x SustainabilityMany watch brands have jumped on the sustainability sledge these days and want the world to know they are doing their bit to fight global warming. Long associated with marine chronometers, Ulysse Nardin’s portfolio has always steered on a nautical path with classical renditions like the Marine Torpilleur or more contemporar

Introducing The New Oris ProPilot Altimeter Carbon Composite
Although it is probably far more useful to mountaineers, hikers, climbers, skiers and other adventurous kinds than modern-day airline pilots flying in a pressure-controlled environment, the Oris ProPilot Altimeter remains a rarity, as it is one of the very few mechanical altimeter watches available. In fact, it is the only one with an automatic movement! First presented as a Big Crown ProPilot in 2014, this year, the Altimeter watch gets upgraded and comes in a slimmer, high-tech case.Oris wanted the new ProPilot Altimeter case made from innovative lightweight and solid materials and turned to a Zurich-based company, 9T Labs. 9T Labs has experience in the air, space and auto industries, but Oris was the first watch company to use the 9T Labs technology. The company specialises in designing and developing manufacturing solutions for more robust and lighter parts made at lower cost and with minimum environmental impact. Their partnership resulted in a lightweight 47mm carbon fibre ProPil

Ma?tres du Temps - Chapter Two - Monochrome Watches
During Baselworld i had a meeting with Ma?tres du Temps. After a warm welcome, Margaret Pane (vice president of Ma?tres du Temps) showed us the movie that was made for Chapter Two. I can really recommend watching this movie (around 10 minutes) as it really captures the essence of this collaboration of the greatest minds of modern watchmaking. The movie has some details that the connaisseur will immediately understand. Like the hands of the church clock, these remind me of the hands of the Speake-Marin Picadilly.After having seen the movie mr. Steven Holzman, the founder and CEO of Ma?tres du Temps, showed us the new masterpiece, Chapter Two. The three master watchmakers who are responsable for Chapter Two are mr. Daniel Roth, mr. Peter Speake-Marin and mr. Roger Dubuis. Chapter Two has an 18K red gold case of 42mm wide, 58mm from lug to lug and is 18mm thick. It features 6 different sapphire crystals with anti reflection coating, three positioned at the front to display the main dial,
