Robert Greubel and Stephen Forsey have been called inventors first and watchmakers second. When visiting their manufacture, the diagrams and formulas that adorn many interior surfaces support this impression. The inventor reference is certainly no insult – the same might be said of Abraham-Louis Breguet. Greubel Forsey’s approach to watchmaking is, if not singular, certainly […]

Dive watches are probably the most popular type of watch among enthusiasts today, yet relatively few aficionados know of ISO 6425. It sets out the requirements that must be met before a watch can officially be called a diver.

Audemars Piguet’s offshore series have been a huge marketing success for the brand.

In its various forms, the Astrotourbillon is emblematic of Cartier’s multifaceted approach to haute horlogerie. Launched in 2010 after five years of research and development, the groundbreaking movement design freed the tourbillion from its static role compensating for the effects of gravity and allowed it to circle the dial in an elongated carriage with an […]

The moon phase is a beautiful reminder of an age before time was ruled by gears, crystals and atoms. Yet the moon phase also reminds that though our timekeepers may achieve aesthetic perfection, they will always struggle to keep pace with the imperfect universe we inhabit. The challenge posed by the moon arises from the […]

When I was under the legal driving age, Alfa Romeo introduced the 156. An important car for them, since they changed their box-designs into far more sensual curved shapes. It was quite a stunning and unexpected car. Perhaps the one that started the now so popular “we look like a coupe but still have four […]

Some time back, I was having dinner with a few friends at a restaurant. Midway through a meal, a mate of mine named Joel yanked out a curious and vintage looking thing from his pocket.

In 2010, Panerai created an instant success by offering the Luminor Submersible in an ancient and beautiful material closely linked with the sea: bronze.

Watch brands often only have a few different collections in their line-up. Of course within these collections a lot of different models reside. This keeps a brand recognizable, the DNA strong, and makes it easy for consumers to maneuver around. Every once in a while though an evolution of existing collections won’t do and a […]

One of the most unusual and technically intriguing watches that I’ve seen so far this year at the 2015 edition of the SIHH is the Zeitwerk Minute Repeater.

Today was a great day for the ladies at the SIHH. It started at Parmigiani with a beautiful Tonda skeleton with an opaque dial. It seemed a little counter-productive to spend all that time polishing and angling to then hide the movement, but strangely enough the lace-like silhouette of the skeleton movement below the dial […]
