Superlatives are tricky things but we feel safe in saying the MikropendulumS, a new concept watch from TAG Heuer, and developed by their Vice President of Science and Engineering Guy Semon and his R&D; team, is perhaps the most radical departure from conventional watchmaking solutions we’ve seen yet, keeping company with such bleeding edge experiments […]

Cartier has always had a very strong collection of ladies- and jewellery watches. And despite the impressive developments in the Fine Watchmaking mens collection, the 2013 pieces presented at the SIHH in Geneva, has quite some lookers. What immediately caught my eye was this little Tortue on satin strap. http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a65/Pasha_1950/TortueDiamantClosed.jpg When closed, it looks like […]

Although the really big news in complications from the Offshore family of watches this year was the Royal Oak Offshore Grande Complication, we were really captivated by another introduction as well: the Royal Oak Offshore Perpetual Calendar Chronograph. Like the Grande Comp, it’s a clever play against the preconception of the Offshore as a pure, […]

For 2013 Cartier goes back in history and releases one of their most sexy technical themes, the Mystery movements. A technique where the brand was famous for, in the twenties. ROTONDE de CARTIER MYSTERIEUSE For me the most exiting watch of the new collection. Case size 42mm, pink- or white gold and fitted with the […]

Among all the technical complications, an astronomical star chart wristwatch must be one of the most appreciated complications by the truly sophisticated watch collectors. At the SIHH 2013 exhibition, Jaeger-LeCoultre pleasantly surprised us with the Jaeger-LeCoultre Rendez-Vous Celestial.

Why wear black when you can stand out in red? It’s a good question, and why we went hands-on with the Red Grape Raymond Weil Millesime Small Seconds Tuxedo dial. What We Love The Red grape colour is different and gives the watch a talking point The vintage style isn’t too overt, and keeps the blend of modern and old The textures and contrasts used on the case and dial create a watch that has depth aesthetically What We Don’t The 39mm size wears nicely, but could get lost on larger wrists The grey can wash out the watch, especially on lighter skin tones The 41-hour power reserve could be improved for those who may not see this as an everyday watch Overall Rating: 8.7 / 10 Value For Money: 8.7/10 Design: 9/10 Wearability: 8.5/10 Build Quality: 8.5/10 Ever since Raymond Weil’s Millesime collection debuted in 2023, it has reshaped perceptions of Raymond Weil.
