Watches that commemorate anniversaries are often amongst the most desirable. Collectors still hunt for pieces of Cartier’s 150th and Patek Philippe’s 175th Anniversary collection, and probably will do the same in the near future for REVOLUTION’s own anniversary Panerai and IWC. That such celebrations often result in the creation of truly unique watches is once […]

We wrote about the Panerai PAM 599, a watch produced in a special collaboration for Revolution magazine’s 10th Anniversary.

The new Apple Watch will be a major topic of discussion at Baselworld next week, and due to a coincidence in the publicity schedule, it’s already bumping up against a Swiss heavyweight. Today we talk about scratch-resistant gold. On Monday, Apple provided final details about its Watch, and we learned that the top-of-the-line Apple Watch […]

Ask a watchmaker, any watchmaker, and they will tell you that oiling a watch is a precise business. Too little and you create extra wear and tear, too much and it will overflow and be drawn away from the bearings. Yet there is a watch that uses a lot of oil, and with a lot […]

The Frequential One F110 from Manufacture Contemporaine du Temps (MCT) incorporates a new movement that embodies both masterful creativity and, some might say, the key to happiness. MCT has established itself as the author of singular mechanical movements that represent time with depth and perception beyond the realm of traditional watchmaking. Some watch manufacturers appear […]

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 […]

There was a time, in the not so distant past, when people discredited Hublot for being too similar to Audemars Piguet. It was unpleasant, but it was not too difficult to see why. The design, the concept, and the execution were uncannily familiar. But things have changed . The new Hublot MP-05 “LaFerrari” is oneRead More

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 […]

Haven’t we all been there? That boring speech, that meeting that seems to be going on and on, yet to nowhere at the same time? Moments when you have that deep urge inside you to check the time, as a glimmer of hope for when it will all be over? An urge you fight profoundly […]

Automobile and horology have always been synonymous together; it is as though both of them shares an invisible but closely knotted bond since the day both of them crossed path. The L.U. Chopard, with a great provenance from the racing world, is no stranger to that too. And the Engine One Tourbillon is a culminationRead More

Cartier just released two very interesting ‘Rotonde de Cartier’ models and I was very pleased that I had a chance to see and handle them last week, in the Amsterdam Cartier Boutique. The ‘Rotonde de Cartier’ is one of the newer models, in the Cartier collection and dates back to 2006, when Cartier introduced this […]

Good things can come in smaller sizes, and in case that you didn’t believe this yet, then there is IWC to prove it! They just introduced a whole collection of smaller sized watches within their Portofino-line. How small? 37mm in diameter. Indeed 3mm smaller than the 40mm Portofino automatic (ref.3565). Does 3mm make such a […]

I do believe things happen for a reason – that a higher order has things aligned and that coincidences as we know are written in the stars. Who would have thought that in my recent trip to Switzerland, I discovered how small this world is. I was in the picturesque Switzerland recently on aRead More

Motoring slowly along the line of buoys, five of us leaned over the starboard gunwale, scanning the clear water through polarized lenses. It had been a quiet day with no sharks in sight - unless you count the lazy nurse sharks begging for bait scraps in the marina. We’d spent languid hours between line checks […]

It is said that those who do not learn from the past are doomed to repeat it, but in the case of horology –especially nowadays –the past is constantly being mined enthusiastically for inspiration –sometimes with antecedents acknowledged, and credit given where it’s due, and sometimes not, with the hope that nobody will notice that […]

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. I also pointed out was the FACT that […]

“Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.” This quote from the great Leonardo da Vinci is very apt in describing H. Moser & Cie.’s watches, and particularly the new Venturer Small Seconds.

Living in Switzerland, I sometimes wonder whether we can qualify as the country with the craziest weather in the world. In just a day, it can go from snowy -3°C to sunny 12°C and then back down again to -5°C. And the worst part of it all is that I never know if I’ll freeze […]
