There is no such thing as a conventional Parmigiani, and there should never be something as a conventional Parmigiani. It doesn’t suit the brand. Parmigiani is all about constantly developing the art of classical watchmaking to define current and future expression of its art. With SIHH 2015 just around the corner, Parmigiani introduces a new […]

One thing you can say without fear of contradiction of A. Lange & Söhne enthusiasts is that they’re a detail oriented bunch; these are not people who buy watches because the company has charmed a new film star into wandering around with their watches (Lange doesn’t do celebrities) or because a sports team’s agreed to […]

In a recent article I produced for Revolution about manufacture status, I concluded with the following: “manufacture status is no guaranteed measure of quality nor prestige, while non-manufacture status doesn’t diminish the worth of a top-quality timepiece.” It’s the watch as a whole, not just the pedigree.

Zenith is actually a strange name for the watch brand, since the word refers to the highest points in the heavens by a celestial body. Although the brand will be celebrating its 150th anniversary next year, it still doesn’t have seemed to reached its Zenith. For all this time the brand has been a respected […]

There are watches and then there is the Rebellion 540 Magnum Tourbillon. Actually it is only the tourbillon part of its name that gives it away that we are actually talking about a watch, and not an assault rifle or muscle car. That’s not to say that the Rebellion 540 Magnum Tourbillon doesn’t have anything […]

Name a watch brand that doesn’t have a tourbillon in its collection? They’re still out there, but their number seems to decrease every year. Even though many brands don’t make their tourbillons in-house, it does illustrate how technically complicated movements have become more and more a part of the general landscape in the watch world, […]

Collecting watches is one thing, but storing them safely is something else. It actually does’nt matter if it’s a collection of three four watches or a dozen, we’re taking about, there comes a moment that they need a better place than the drawer of a nightstand, or in a cardboard box when travelling. Nowadays there […]
