Introducing The Ultra-Precise Omega Speedmaster Super Racing
Ten years ago, in 2013, Omega presented the first stage of its journey towards higher levels of anti-magnetism and accuracy. With a model based on the Seamaster Aqua Terra, the brand developed a watch capable of resisting magnetic fields up to 15,000 gauss. This was the first milestone in a story that later, combined with the tech developed by the brand and its co-axial escapement, would introduce the Master Chronometer certification. To celebrate a decade of precision watchmaking, Omega writes a new chapter with a watch that feels familiar visually (based on a Speedmaster Racing) but hides a new hairspring and fine-tuning system – the Omega Spirate System. With a guaranteed accuracy of +0 and +2 seconds/day, it may well be the best-in-class for the industry. Meet the new Omega Speedmaster Super Racing.In 2013, Omega claimed to have launched a watch with the highest level of magnetic resistance of any serially produced mechanical wristwatch. Resistant to magnetic fields of over 1
The ubercool Dottling Gyrowinder Watch Winder - Monochrome Watches
Do you need a watch winder? No, actually you don’t, but it makes life easier when you own several mechanical watches with an automatically wound movement. And the Dottling Gyrowinder is by far the coolest looking single-watch winder I have ever seen.?The design reminds me of (my favorite) Jaeger-LeCoultre Atmos, the Reedition 1930.

Introducing Angelus U53 Tourbillon Dive Watch Khaki Green - Specs, Price
For those who've wondered if there are tourbillon-regulated dive watches on the market, the simple answer is; yes! But, they are only a few of them and naming some from the top of one's mind can be a challenge. Fear not, however, Angelus have just launched a new watch in its bold U50 collection, so the number of tourbillon dive watches currently available goes up by at least one! Here's the Angelus U53 Tourbillon Dive Watch in a trendy Khaki green colour scheme.Go ahead, I'll give you a minute to think of another watch that comes with a (flying) tourbillon escapement and has a depth rating of 300 meters or more. It's not that easy, is it? That's because it is simply something that doesn't naturally go well together, a robust diving instrument fitted with a delicate anti-gravity regulator. Sure, the Angelus U53 is not alone, but you'd have to have intimate knowledge of the watch market, past and present, to come up with an answer. Richard Mille has done it with the RM 025, a 300m watch
Introducing: Rado Captain Cook Automatic Blue Gradient Dial
Following the relaunch of Rado's classic Captain Cook in 2017 (first introduced in 1962), the diver's portfolio has expanded significantly with models like the Bronze Collection and Two-Tone Automatics. This latest variant celebrates summer with a nod to tennis and offers three different straps for a new vibe whenever the mood strikes. It's not the first model to wink at tennis as the Cameron Norrie Limited Edition really stepped onto the court, but this one has a fresh gradient dial and all of the core elements that make a Captain Cook.The stainless steel case has a contemporary size of 42mm in diameter and 12.3mm in height compared to the 1962 model's 37mm case. Rado did release a faithful 37mm Limited Edition back in 2019, however, but this one very much belongs in 2024. The case is polished along with the crown and bezel, and the latter has a polished blue high-tech ceramic bezel insert with a simple engraved diver's scale with white Super-LumiNova. A retro box-shaped sapphire crys
