Jaquet Droz And The Eye Of The Tiger

Jaquet Droz has always cherished its artistic side and often gives it center stage on their watches. This makes it that they are more than just telling time, and transcend to becoming an object of art. To achieve this, the level of craftsmanship needs to be at an extremely high standard, otherwise, they run the risk of merely becoming something whimsical. With the new Petit Heure Minute 'Tiger,' which is available in two varieties, the brands' Ateliers d'Art has absolutely surpassed itself.

Patek Philippe Makes Steel The New Deal For Calatrava

Most people will immediately think of the exquisite dress watches made by Patek Philippe in precious metals when you mention the Calatrava. Already decades ago has this collection become a benchmark for the industry. While Patek Philippe made quite a name for itself with first the stainless steel Nautilus, and later on the Aquanaut, was this material only used sporadically to case Calatrava's. Recently there seems to have been a change in direction, as last year we where already been treated to the exquisite Calatrava Weekly Calendar Ref.5212A, sporting a stainless steel case, and now Patek Philippe is treating us on the Ref.6007A-001 Limited Edition, also in this material.

Richard Mille Introduces A New Masked Hero With The RM 52-06

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.

TAG Heuer Launches Red Hot Monaco

As the engines roared last weekend in France, at the 24-hours of Le Mans, TAG Heuer took the stage to launch a very special version of the Monaco. This model rose to fame, not in the least because it was on the wrist of Steve McQueen in the 1971 cult-classic 'Le Mans'.

Among them was Steve McQueen's son Chad McQueen, but also brand ambassador Patrick Dempsey, Formula E champion Jean-Éric Vergne and Derek Bell, who not only won Le Mans five times but also drove one of the cars in the movie.
