Watches and cars. Hardly a new idea in watchmaking, but not all collaborations are created equal. It is far?less common (and maybe a little more interesting) when the brand in question is primarily known for its cars rather than its watches.

Every year, the worlds watch brands unveil the vast majority of their new pieces at either the SIHH watch salon in Geneva in January or at the huge Baselworld trade fair in March.

This is clearly the year of the GMT, though unlike the vintage re-issue craze and the two-tone and bronze material fads, this is one trend that I am all too happy to support. As a genuinely useful complication for both travel, and international collaboration alike, a good GMT is one of the last few watch complications that quickly relay crucial informa [...]

From time to time, when I return to the Montblanc Timewalker in an article, I mentally go back to when first I learned about this watch collection years ago. That was back in 2004, when Montblanc initially debuted the collection. That means that 2014 is the 10th anniversary of their modern yet classic looking Timewalker watch collection. Wh [...]
