Nature is often a source of inspiration for how we design things. Especially in jewelry, are there many objects whose shape is inspired by animals, flowers, or the world below sea level. In watches, it is usually animals that inspire designers to create something unique, like the following four watches;

Haute Living, with Ulysse Nardin, XO & Louis XIII raised over $100k for One More Wave—a nonprofit that helps disabled veterans.

Seven years ago, Richard Mille took inspiration from something that has fascinated humankind for centuries, the human skull, and made it the centerpiece of the RM 052 Tourbillon Skull. The shape of the skull served as the top bridges, hiding the entire movement behind it. It was suspended in the middle of the case, almost like a mystery watch, being only connected to the case by four bridges. This created the effect of bones and skull, much like a pirates flag. Richard Mille went even so far as also to sculpt the back of the skull, which served as the movement's center bridge. With the introduction of the RM 52-06, Richard Mille continues to play with this concept, yet now it is not a skull, but a mask that takes center stage.

During the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show, Holman Motorcars & Bentley came together to host a group of car collectors and aficionados for a private cocktail, dinner, and unveiling of the new Bentley Flying Spur.

Halloween is here again, and that means that it is time to don yourself in your scariest outfit and celebrate. Details often make the difference between a good outfit and a great one. Watches hardly ever play a role in Halloween costumes, but that doesn't mean that there aren't any watches that couldn't play the part. These four watches would fit right in during the holiday, but will also be the rest of the year a 'skeleton' you gladly have available in your closet.

Intentionally and repeatedly overturning every convention, probing the confines of an unexplored dimension while deepening the link with tradition, the Submersible Luna Rossa - 47 mm was presented as a preview at the last edition of the SIHH, Salon International de la Haute Horlogerie in Geneva, and it was the first physical interpretation of the highly emotional partnership with Luna Rossa.

Walter Owen (W.O.) Bentley established the company on July 10, 1919. A decade later, celebrations for the Bentley Motors Centenary took place in some of the world’s biggest cities. The most recent was held in New York City on October 20, 2019. For the public, a series of parades featuring a fleet of Bentleys from the past, present and future descended onto Manhattan the day before to celebrate Bentley’s 100 year anniversary. For Bentley owners and enthusiasts, a day filled with three special events took place Sunday to celebrate the Centenary.

Some watches don't have to prove anything anymore. Their name is enough to gain a watch connoisseurs respect, and in rare cases, you don't even have to mention the exact model to achieve this. One of these watches is the Zenith El Primero. A watch that cannot only rely on a strong heritage but also kept its relevance because Zenith continued to invest in it. Today clients can still buy the pure El Primero with only a chronograph, but also far more complex varieties such as the Defy El Primero Double Tourbillon.

If there is one complication that, especially in recent years, has become very popular, it is the annual calendar. This is also for good reasons, as it offers nearly all the benefits of a perpetual calendar, with the only exception that you have to adjust the date at the end of February manually. As a result, an annual calendar doesn't have to know when it is a leap year, making it less complex to make, and therefore, it can also be offered at a lower price. While there are now many annual calendars on the market, one of the most beautiful is still the IWC Portugieser Annual Calendar.

Dutch yacht-design company, Sinot, recently unveiled a detailed model of what will be the world's first hydrogen-powered superyacht— during the Monaco Yacht Show.

The yacht's only emission would be water, and the system would depend on two 28-ton vacuum-sealed tanks of liquid hydrogen stored at -423 degrees Fahrenheit.

The wait has been over as today A. Lange & Söhne launched their very first sports watch crafted from stainless steel. They called this watch Odysseus, and one of the first things you notice about the watch is that it is different from all other watches by A. Lange & Söhne, yet it is strongly infused with its DNA.

Diamonds on a ladies' watch are not a necessity, but in most cases, they do add something special. Even when only a few are used, their fire and scintillation make such a watch, especially in certain light conditions, truly stand out. While some diamond set ladies watches take on the mantra, the more, the merrier, others are more restrained in their approach. Here are for of those watches that are truly fit for a dame

A relic from the mid 20th Century, the Panda dial has proved its staying power six decades later. Defined as a chronograph dial with a white background and black sub-dials (and nicknamed after the cute creature with that recognizable face), the Panda dial is as fresh looking today as it was when it first appeared. Case in point is this batch of contemporary luxury watches with Panda dials.
