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?

Staying power is something that every watch brand hopes for when they launch a new model. Achieving this is far more complicated than it might seem at first. Many new models will be tweaked in their design within a relatively short period after their launch, while others ride a wave of fashion only to be discontinued as this wave is taken over by another one. Only with a rare few, the passing of time doesn't seem to get a hold of them. They have become icons for their respective brands, and benchmarks for the rest of the industry. But that doesn't mean that they did it by merely being idle.

Some vintage watches hold the power to elevate your heartbeat whenever you see it. Such a watch is the Rolex Ref.4113' Split-Seconds.' Made in extremely limited numbers, with the one featured in this article leaving the Rolex manufacture in 1942, in the midst of World War II, it is a watch unlike any other. Many things contribute to its unique character, starting with the diameter of its stainless steel case, which is 44mm. For a watch made in the mid-1940s, this is not large but huge.

While several luxury watch brands like to dabble in unusual case materials or unique gold alloys, there’s something to be said about the classics. And when it comes to timepieces, it doesn’t get more classic than 18k yellow gold. Although yellow gold has been somewhat overshadowed by its rosier sibling pink gold in recent years, it’s time to welcome the archetypical precious metal for luxury watches back into the conversation. Say hello to yellow (again) with this fantastic selection of yellow gold watches.

Last night the 2020 edition of the Grammy awards was a clean sweep for Billie Eilish, who took home all the four major awards; the one for best album, record, the song of the year, and best new artist.

All of the royalty of the music world was in attendance, and among them are, surprisingly or not, quite a few passionate watch collectors.

Last week the first major watch fair of the year took place, as LVMH organized the very first edition of their 'Watch Week' in Dubai. It is taking the position of the 'Geneva Days,' an event in which the watch brands of LVMH used to launch their first batch of novelties of the year and which took place in Geneva at the same time as the SIHH. As this event is now renamed 'Watches & Wonders Geneva' and takes place adjacent to Baselworld at the end of April. While the LVMH watch brand still participates in Baselworld, they have, for years, been following a strategy of launching the majority of their novelties in two batches throughout the year. The 'Geneva Days' and now 'LVMH Watch Week' allows them to get a head start on the rest, but also to receive feedback from retailers and press to fine-tune their second batch of offerings.
