A. Lange & Söhne Introduces the 1815 Thin Honeygold “Homage to F.A. Lange”

The base model in the “Homage to F. A. Lange” 175th Anniversary Collection is the 1815 Thin Honeygold, a slim, time-only watch that’s a restrained, formal-dress watch. Though the simplest watch in the 175th anniversary line up, the 1815 Thin also the best variation of Lange’s ultra-thin watch. The standard version of this watch is the Saxonia Thin, a watch that’s a little staid. The anniversary “Thin”, on the other hand, has been reworked with a new, larger case as well as fired enamel dial dial – an extra rarely found on accessibly-priced Lange watches. Initial thoughts The 1815 Thin is notably appealing, not so much for its thinness, but how well it has been executed despite being minimalist. The standard Saxonia Thin is overly plain, but the 1815 Thin manages to be compelling, mainly due the slightly larger case and fired enamel dial. And the 1815 Thin is also affordable as limited edition Lange watches go. The 175th anniversary trio Simple done right Made of two parts, the enamel dial sticks to the pocket-watch inspiration of the 1815. At 38 mm by 6.3 mm, the case is slightly larger and thicker than that of the Saxonia Thin (which is 37 mm by 5.9 mm), in order to accommodate the enamel dial. The movement is the same L093.1 found in the Saxonia Thin, but as with the rest of the anniversary watches, it’s been dressed up for the occasion. It has a frosted finish on the three-quarter plate as well as black-rhodium filling for the engraving on the bala...

OPINION: Will COVID hammer the final nail into the coffin of the dress watch?

Having moved house last year, I finally got around to collecting the last remaining items from our storage facility last weekend. All that was left was a forlorn collection of those random bits and pieces that you barely use, but can’t quite stomach throwing out. There was a box of bedraggled Christmas decorations, a tennis … ContinuedThe post OPINION: Will COVID hammer the final nail into the coffin of the dress watch? appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

Commissioning Horological Art - A Watch Collector’s Experience

Lovers of horses, airplanes, yachts and cars can choose from many specialised painters if they want a piece depicting their favoured object for the walls of the home or office. While Salvador Dalí’s surrealist “melting watch” paintings are amongst the 20th century’s best known artworks, a search for current day artists specialising in the figurative depictions of watches generates barely a handful of names, though most of whom show their works on Instagram. This is the story of my first commission, a graphic of the Voutilainen GMT-6. The Voutilainen GMT-6 by Alex Eisenzammer (@watchoniste), commissioned by the author High-tech capture Particularly when wristwatches are the subject of art, I follow the original Latin definition of ars, “skills” or “craft”. Therefore, I regard flawless photography of watches as art, as with the Voutilainen 28 “Sarasamon”, captured by specialist watch photographer Guy Lucas de Peslouan. But perfect photographic illustrations tread a thin line between art and technology. When the photographer’s skills are not at the highest level and Photoshop is heavy-handedly applied, the results are hardly suited to truly capturing a watch, yet find often a place in press releases from brands.

In the last few years, storm clouds have formed over the Helvetic Republic, where, for years, there has been nothing but blue sky and crisp alpine air.

First Look - The Breguet Classique Souscription, now in Platinum

As most of you might remember, Breguet celebrated its 250th anniversary last year, and did so by releasing rather spectacular watches, from the ultra-elegant 7235, to the compact 38mm Type XX or the Experimentale 1, the range-topping model with its 10Hz high-frequency tourbillon and its constant force magnetic escapement. But the watch that started the […]

Hands On: JM Fleury Chronograph Openwork SJX Watches

Hands On: JM Fleury Chronograph Openwork

After more than two decades manufacturing components at Patek Philippe and independently for client brands, Jean-Marc Fleury has begun applying that expertise to watches bearing his own name. His latest is the JM Fleury Chronograph Openwork, which pairs a titanium case with sapphire dial elements that reveal the finely finished calibre within. Inside is the manufacture’s own FM04, a hand-wound chronograph that takes inspiration from the Lemania 2310 while refining its architecture and enlarging it for contemporary proportions. Initial thoughts The prevailing emphasis on elaborate movement finishing explains the concept behind the JM Fleury Chronograph Openwork. With collectors seemingly laser-focused on mirror-polished steel and gleaming bevels, independent watchmakers are increasingly turning to inverted architectures and transparent dials to bring more of their work to the surface. Like the chronographs of Petermann Bédat and Rexhep Rexhepi, the Chronograph Openwork stops short of all-out skeletonisation, opting instead for a selectively open-worked main plate visible through sapphire crystal dial elements. The result strikes a balance: enough of the main plate remains intact to give the dial a (mostly) coherent backdrop, while the openings expand the visible canvas for decoration. The hand-wound FM04 draws on the Lemania 2310, but its architecture has been extensively rethought. This technical foundation, combined with high-quality finishing, makes the Chronograph Op...

Review: the Bulova A-11 “Jimmy” Worn & Wound

Review: the Bulova A-11 “Jimmy”

As decades march on, no conflict has captured and maintained as much attention globally as World War II. Sure, that sounds like a dry opening statement for an AP History exam, but it’s hard to deny the pervasive influence of WWII on world culture, national identity, and yes, even horology. Eighty years on, we keep making movies about the conflict, keeping the 1940s and its aesthetic surprisingly prime in the cultural zeitgeist. Jimmy is one of those movies, due in theaters in November, and featuring a smattering of real Bulova timepieces from the period, courtesy of the brand’s museum. In celebration of the iconic Type A-11 watch that Bulova provided to the United States military starting in 1942, a re-release called the Jimmy A-11 Hack is ready for deployment.  I have long been a fan of mil-spec field watches, though not because I am some sort of military history buff or avid outdoor enthusiast. No, the main appeal for me—and I think for many folks, especially non-watch nerds—is the simplicity. No date window, no chronograph subdials, no functions other than the absolutely vital. It’s kind of refreshing in 2026 to wear a purpose-built piece of machinery that does one thing very, very well, and a classic field watch is the epitome of that catharsis. Of course, hacking seconds is one of the most historically important features of a proper WWII-era design, allowing for soldiers to sync their watches to time operations, but for the average horology enjoyer of today...

Business News: Ateliers Associés Brings The Business Incubator Concept To Independent Watchmaking

The business incubator is coming to the watch bench with Ateliers Associés, a new venture promising business support, infrastructure, industry know-how, and contacts for independent watchmakers and young brands. The incubator is the brainchild of industry veterans William Massena of Massena LAB and Louis Westphalen-Lemaitre, a former Hodinkee staffer and most recently responsible for brand development and marketing at LVMH's Gérald Genta and Daniel Roth revivals.  William Massena Business incubators, which provide capital, office and manufacturing facilities as well as corporate services and guidance to start-ups in return for a stake in the young companies they back, have been around for more than half a century. They have thrived in the technology, specialized manufacturing, and biotech sectors by backing innovative ideas and business plans. There have also been high-profile failures, particularly in the so-called dot.com era of the late 1990s and early 2000s, as a surge of internet startups joined with tech incubators to raise capital only to collapse in short order. Now, as interest in independent watchmakers grows into an increasingly significant part of the watch industry, with scores of young watchmakers seeking to produce their own projects, Massena and Westphalen-Lemaitre are betting the incubator concept can be applied to horology, with hopes of building the next generation of independent watchmaking businesses and brands.  Louis Westphalen-Lemaitre.Photo c...

Serica Introduces the 8315-3 Golden Green Travel Chronometer

French microbrand Serica has toiled since 2019 to create an aesthetic that makes their watches instantly recognizable—rounded design elements with precise proportions, even wildly varying models like their field watch, diver, and stadium-shaped Parade contain unifying hallmarks: carefully considered dial balance, 1970s-esque styling, and prominent bezel designs all signal a Serica timepiece. Over the past seven years, they’ve continued to refine their watches from a mechanical standpoint, too, introducing complications and added robustness to withstand tool watch duties. The 8315 line of GMT models is perhaps their most function-forward design, first debuting in 2022. Like most Serica watches, it favors a cleanly balanced dial, meaning no date function—ideal for a travel watch, which is the intended use of the 8315, earning it the “Travel Chronometer” name. Now, Serica unveils a slick new colorway for the popular model: Golden Green.  The 8315-3 Golden Green doesn’t purport to be a grand deviation from the Travel Chronometer formula. In fact, it bears the same internals and basic design as its line-mates, primarily the Swiss chronometer-certified Soprod C125 automatic movement, which allows for 42 hours of power reserve and 200 meters of water resistance. This movement powers the GMT hand and “caller” GMT function. This gives it a simpler use case than the more complicated local jumping “flyer” GMT seen in watches like the Tudor Black Bay GMT; basicall...
