Breitling Navitimer Super 8 - Baselworld 2018 (inc. Specs)
We just introduced to you the new Navitimer 1 Automatic, a clean, historically-relevant and smaller piece in the collection. That’s not all the brand will have at Baselworld 2018. Breitling will also look at the other side of the range, with a true instrument piece. Voluntarily large, properly masculine and bold, made with ruggedness and inspired by a past model of the brand, here is the?Breitling Navitimer Super 8.BackgroundThe new Breitling Navitimer Super 8 is inspired by the Reference 637 stopwatch, which was used in the Second World War by bomber pilots and crews. This Reference 637 was strapped to the aviators' thighs, which allowed optimal readability and ease of use. The crown was located on the left side of the case, and its prominent size and positioning meant that an aviator's hand - even gloved - could easily maneuver it. Ad - Scroll to continue with article

A Week in Japan with Grand Seiko Reveals Secrets of the Brand's Unique Craftsmanship
Stating that Grand Seiko is Japanese is like saying that the Eiffel Tower belongs to Paris. It seems so obvious at first that you might forget that France’s most famous monument wasn’t meant to become a permanent fixture. With Grand Seiko, the Japaneseness of the brand isn’t just about the location. It’s not about making watches in Japan; it’s about making watches the Japanese way, something the brand calls Dou (µÀ) or The Way. A couple of months ago, I had the opportunity to spend a week in Japan and my goal was, besides visiting several key locations for the brand, to understand what makes Grand Seiko unique. To discover what makes it intrinsically, deeply, brilliantly Japanese.?When I received an invitation from Grand Seiko in the late summer to finally visit Japan and the brand’s manufactures and other important locations (I say finally because this trip was initially planned for spring 2020…), I couldn’t hide a certain excitement. I h

The Archimedes by Milus, Now in Wild Green (Specs & Price)
The fluid-tight “compressor” or “super-compressor” technology was patented during the 1950s, by Ervin Piquerez SA, a famous watch case manufacturer from Bassecourt in the Swiss Jura. Cases equipped with this technology have given birth to iconic dive watches across many brands, including Jaeger-LeCoultre, Hamilton, Longines, or Bulova. The most famous “compressor” EPSA cases had a dual-crown style, one to wind the movement and set the time (and the date, if any), the other to operate the internal rotating bezel. This distinctive look remains highly popular with dive watch aficionados. Among the watches with such design is the Archimedes by Milus, a modern take on one of the brand's 1960s divers. The model is now presented in a cool green hue.One of the original Milus Archimedes that inspired the modern versionNamed upon the ancient Greek mathematician, physicist and inventor, famous for his principle applying on a body immersed in a fluid, the Archim

A perfect all-round timepiece with an almost excessive amount of class and elegance.
