Here’s the brand new A. Lange & Sohne Odysseus, the brand’s first stainless steel watch that can easily be worn during sports and that isn’t scared of a bit of water.

Let’s welcome the first Lange that you can wear in the board room AND when diving off the board into a swimming pool.Introductory note…Odysseus might just be the most polarizing watch in A. Lange and Sohne’s history. The Lange 31 was already polarizing and when the first Zeitwerk was introduced, I can assure you that not every Lange collector immediate

The idea of this article came to life after our first encounter with the new MB&F Legacy Sequential EVO a few weeks ago. Looking at this ultra-complex, yet impressively intuitive and pragmatic chronograph – that was officially launched today – made us look back at the new chronograph watches in 2022.

It seems ages ago that shock race wins (and champions) were possible, but one season in modern history proves it is still very much possible. It just needs all the pieces of the puzzle to fall into the right place, as it did for the Brawn GP racing team in the 2009 Formula 1 season.Straight out the gates: Brawn GP is the ONLY Formula 1 constructor that has been around for one season only and crowned champion at the end of 17 races. No team before it, and no team since have been able to do that. And I must say that I expect no team ever to be able to repeat that. While the team's origins can be tra
