Not all watches are created equal, and this is even the case when we are talking about Patek Philippe. Among its rich history, does reference 2497 hold a special place. This perpetual calendar was launched in 1951, together with reference 2499, which also features a chronograph. It took over from reference 1526 and set itself apart from its predecessor by its more lavish and generous styled case, which has a diameter of 37mm.

HYT holds a unique position within the watch industry with its mechanical watches that tell the time by pumping fluids through a capillary glass tube. They offer this technology in a variety of different models with among them the H1.0. On paper, this watch looks incredibly large, with a diameter of 48.8mm and a height of 20.08mm. Yet inspired by the way that it indicates the time, is also its design so fluid that it fits nearly any wrist size with great comfort.

Technically challenging and aesthetically daring, Parmigiani has ever since it was founded in 1996, shown a passion for combining both. This is especially true for the new Tonda 1950 Double Rainbow Flying Tourbillon. The watch is powered by caliber PF517, a movement that not only impresses with its complications but also with its finish. It has a height of 3.4mm, which is very thin, considering that it is not only equipped with a flying tourbillon but also features automatic winding. Creating such a movement in-house is something that Parmigiani only achieve because it is a fully vertically integrated manufacture.

When we talk about a brand like Roger Dubuis, it is challenging to put their position within the market in words. Perhaps the most appropriate is that of 'traditional innovator.' The brand is thoroughly grounded in the traditions of Swiss watchmaking, yet utilizes them to take the next step on the evolution ladder. A clear example of this is the new Excalibur Twofold, which introduces us to several novelties.

What has been only a short few weeks looks almost like another lifetime, when we were able to sit down with Ricardo Guadalupe, CEO of Hublot, to talk about the success factors of the brand. At the time, increased tensions between Iran and other parties in the region seemed to be the biggest fear, but little did we know that soon the Covid-19 pandemic would rule our daily lives and made the LVMH Watch Week the only fair that has been taken place this year so far. Nevertheless, was it a more than an interesting conversation in which he shared freely his insights in what makes Hublot such a success story.

An entirely new MB&F is always an exciting thing. The brand has yet to make something that can be categorized as a 'normal' watch, and also their latest creation refuses to fit in. The Horological Machine No.10, or HM10 in short, is inspired by a bulldog and comes with 'eyes' that tell the time and a jaw that serves as a power reserve indicator.

In light of the global COVID-19 outbreak, Watches of Switzerland Group has closed all retail stores, but has rolled out new online purchasing services.

Bulgari has spoiled us over the last few years with ultra-thin delicacies that they presented within the Octo Finissimo collection. One of the highlights in this line-up is, without a doubt, the minute repeater. It has a natural attraction to watch connoisseurs because of its complex mechanism, but also due to the sound it makes. Many brands have invested significant resources in improving the vibrance and tone when the hammers hit the gongs, but Bulgari also focussed on the movement itself. Through clever engineering, they succeeded in making it only 3.12mm thick, which is as astonishing as it is record-breaking.

On the heels of winning the Calendar Prize award at the Grand Prix d'Horlogerie de Genève, Greubel Forsey has launched the QP à Équation timepiece, reinventing the esteemed perpetual Calendar (QP).

Vacheron Constantin is a brand that not only has a serious reputation to uphold when it comes to mechanical masterpieces but also in the world of diamond-set watches they are a force not to reckon with. Throughout their entire history, they have created watches in which diamonds and other gemstones played the glamorous lead role. Most notably was the Kallista collection from the late 1970s and early 1980ss, which were all about diamonds and the most expensive wristwatches of their time. With the Égérie Moon Phase Jewellery does Vacheron Constantin continue this tradition in a dazzling way.

Rolls-Royce has launched the first Collection Car of the 2020s, the Dawn Silver Bullet Collection, of which there are only 50 worldwide. The car's design reaches back a century to take inspiration of its decadence and stylish machines and shoots back to present-day roads like the silver bullet in its name.

Sunreef Yachts has released the latest renderings of its stunning 160' POWER Superyacht, which is more eye-catching and full of flash than ever before.

If I had written this article a couple of years back, I would have said that green was a trend color, but this is not the case anymore. Many brands have not only adopted green as a staple color within their collection but also make many different types of watches with this color. From classic dress watches and utilitarian pilots to diving watches and sporty chronographs, green is here to stay, and what better day to wear a green watch than on St.Patrick's Day?
