If I could go back and add an additional watch to my Top 5 watches at Baselworld 2010, it would be this new collection from Bell Ross. Last year, one of their hottest models was the BR01-92 Instrument Heritage (that I wrote about here). It had a new (old) type of vintage aircraft cockpit dial design and a tan leather strap that [...]
Piaget is a watch maker I love. I may give it a hard time because it reminds me petite European man in flamboyant attire, but Piaget makes nice looking watches. Piaget came to the watch scene from a jewelers perspective, so everything had to look nice. Their watches each embody a degree of minimalism with subtle accents of top design flair. These are extr [...]

When it comes to sheer visual spectacle, few mechanical complications can match the intricate display of the flying tourbillon. Although discussions about the history of the tourbillon escapement tend to focus on the initial designs by Abraham-Louis Breguet, the invention of the flying tourbillon came over a century later at the hands of German watch [...]

In less than a decade of production, the complex geometric Bulgari Octo series has firmly established itself as a modern icon of watchmaking.

The Tourbillon Orrery by Swiss Graham was among the more unique watches we were lucky to see at Baselworld 2013. Graham vacillates between producing bold sport watches and classic timepieces often with an astronomical component. The Swiss brands namesake is George Graham, a well regarded British horologist who was instrumental in many innovations and [...]
Cartier has a few lovely chronographs in their current watch collection (very few, actually), but the company isnt exactly known for being a producer of too many chronograph timepieces.

The modern arms race with watches isnt about gears and pinions, but rather materials. It may appear that brands are hot on beating each others movements but they know that such a war would be a joke. The race for the most accurate movement slowed to almost a halt when quartz watches hit the scene, and there are almost no new viable complications to [...]
