This is a good show in term of content, but the recording was done while I lost my voice, and while John was in China (he couldnt even test to see if we posted it online properly because the Internet is so heavily censored in China!). So pardon our oddities or faintness in sound. Just turn that volume way up! Enjoy folks.We talk about the Grey Mar [...]
By Anish BhattSo the Hublot King Power Cathedral Gong Tourbillon Minute Repeater. In White. Yes, the name is a mouthful, and you may have seen the?carbon fibre edition released by Hublot previously (hands-on here), but this colour, complete with the Marcus (a watch boutique in London on Bond Street) M logo at 12 oclock, is a piece unique (one of a kind). The manual wind calibre HUB8100 movemen [...]
In virtually all the watch auctions I see, Patek Philippe watches are of the most common high yield lots. It amazes me that even Patek Philippe watches that are just a few years old auction for more than the retail price. This is certainly not the case with most watches, but it can safely be [...]
A new Formula 1 driver -based watch from Audemars Piguet is this new Royal Oak Offshore Jarno Trulli. Boy, it sure is nice, but looks very little like where these watches looked as though they have been evolving. It is possible that ending with the AP ROO Grand Prix, designer Octavio Garcia felt that the designs of brands race themed watc [...]
The new Panerai PAM796 Luminor Marina 8-Days Power Reserve Left-Hand is a bit of an amalgamation of traits that Panerai already has pursued - being that its a left-handed (crown on the left side of the case) Luminor with an 8-day power reserve. This watch also features Panerais recognizable and often sought-after sandwich dial with long, [...]
Heres a question for you: can there be such a thing as a cool Lange? Elegant, sophisticated, restrained, calculated Yes. But cool? In truth, I wouldnt have thought so until I went hands-on with the?A. Lange Sohne Grand Lange 1 Moon Phase Lumen.Continue reading
Since its initial debut in 2020, the Oris Calibre 400 family of movements has gradually become the backbone of the brands lineup, equipping top-range models across its most popular watch series. While the Calibre 400 and its offshoots have found success with many of Oris fan-favorite offerings, until now the independent marque has avoided bringing this in-hou [...]
In case you didnt notice from the name, the new Longines Heritage Classic watch delves into the past for inspiration, hitting aesthetic pay-dirt in the process. The name may be about as subtle as a breeze block to the jaw, but if you can remove yourself from that (hopefully tongue-in-cheek) ridiculousness and appreciate the watch in isolation of its moniker, youll fi [...]

This milestone was marked with the announcement of another horological landmark, the Citizen Caliber 0100 Eco-Drive movement which delivers the worlds most impressive time-keeping accuracy within ҩ1 second per year.

Trigger warning: the Hublot Big Bang Sang Bleu II Ceramic Chronograph is my favorite luxury watch release of 2021. More to the point, Id rather buy this watch than any other traditional luxury watch released in the recent past. But wait! Theres reason behind the madness. Although the core aesthetic has been the same through all Hublot Sang Ble [...]
We are about a year away from a total re-shuffle of the Royal Oak for its 40th anniversary but for 2011 Audemars Piguet has created arguably the best looking Royal Oak Offshore watch ever. Next year is also the 20th Anniversary of the Royal Oak Offshore I believe as well. The redo of the ROO (Royal Oak Offshore) for 2011 is simple, but involves a number of refin [...]
2017 is clearly the year of new materials for Panerai. At SIHH 2017, Panerai announced the LAB-ID Luminor 1950 Carbotech 3-Days, which claims to have a 50-year guarantee from the movement needing any kind of lubrication.?Here also is the Panerai?Luminor Submersible 1950 BMG-Tech 3 Days Automatic (PAM692), which features an al [...]
When met with Breitling at Baselworld 2015 (to be honest, they had so many new products, we needed to meet with them twice), the watch I was most excited to see hands-on was the new Breitling Chronoliner (that I originally debuted on here). Why was I excited to see it? Well, in addition to having a relatively subdued dial des [...]
After several weeks of teasers posted on its official social media channels, Breitling has at last launched the new Breitling Navitimer 8 collection with a variety of models. Todays Navitimer 8 collection is a nod to that extensive heritage as well as all that the Navitimer is loved for like its reliable movements and masculine case-while the busy dials appear to have taken a lesser rol [...]
One of the most fashionable new watches at Baselworld 2019 was, not surprisingly, released by Paris-based Bell Ross. Using the BR V2-94 watch collection as a base, the new-for-2019 limited-edition reference BRV294-BC-BR/SCA BR V2-94 Bellytanker Bronze combines a rich look with affordability in a non-tarnishing bronze case. On the wrist, youd be hard-pressed n [...]
My opinion is that it takes years of learning about watches to really appreciate the little details that Perrelet puts into its watches. It makes me think about all the people out there who have nice watches and have no perception of the little amazing details because they simply arent watch lovers like us, or no one poin [...]
