Cabestan Triple Axis Tourbillon

Truly Unprecedented Ingenuity: The Cabestan Triple Axis Tourbillon

November 14, 2015/1 Comment/in Highlights/by Amr Sindi

Every once in a while an independent watchmaker or boutique brand comes along with something of truly unprecedented ingenuity. Once such piece is Cabestan’s Triple Axis Tourbillon, which was first presented at Baselworld 2015. Boasting a triple-axis tourbillon escapement as well as an unorthodox design and technical construction, the Cabestan Triple Axis Tourbillon is one for the books.

The Most Glamorous Night In Watchmaking: The Chopard Jewelry I Wore To The Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève 2015

November 13, 2015/2 Comments/in Highlights, Chopard, Ladies watches/by Elizabeth Doerr

For once I’m going to be a typical woman and talk about something uniquely female here: the preparation that goes into planning an outfit for a large event. In this case, the large event being the Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève, watchmaking’s biggest night. The hardest and most important part, however, was deciding what to do about my jewelry and which watch to wear. So, naturally, I turned to my friends at Chopard.

MB&F Legacy Machine Perpetual in platinum

Why Legacy Machine Perpetual Catapults MB&F Into The Big League

November 12, 2015/16 Comments/in MB&F/by Ian Skellern

I’m all for evolution, especially continual evolution in watchmaking. However, from time to time we need revolution as well as evolution, and the former is severely lacking. While MB&F’s Legacy Machine Perpetual looks to all intents and purposes like one of the least radical timepieces created in the brand’s ten-year history, make no mistake: it is revolution, not evolution.

Only Watch, the biennial charity auction on behalf of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy research, has firmly established itself as a landmark event on the watch scene. This year’s sixth renewal of the event, serving as the kickoff for the autumn Geneva watch auction week, saw Patek Philippe donating the landmark piece for the event, a blue-dialed, steel-cased Reference 5016A-010, which hammered for more than $7 million.

Design Your Own Watch? A Collector Explains The Pros And Cons With Ochs Und Junior

November 9, 2015/15 Comments/in Collectors and Collecting, Ochs und Junior/by Ming Thein

I am a passionate watch enthusiast and have been for years, as well as a watch collector (as far as my budget allows).

I have experienced the joy of getting a watch precisely to my liking in a simple, reductionist philosophy with a comparatively pedestrian movement – but including a very interesting complication and aesthetic.

It makes me happy every time I strap it on or look at it. Here is my experience in designing my own watch with Ochs und Junior.

A Very Rolexy Rolex Discussion: 3 Reasons The Rolex Day-Date 40 Convinced Me

November 8, 2015/11 Comments/in Rolex/by Joshua Munchow

Rolex has never called out to Joshua Munchow as a watch that he must have or that would be the pinnacle of his collection. He thinks that this is because of the downsides to being the most widely known watch brand in the world: copying and overexposure. So what is it about the new Rolex Day-Date 40 that has turned him into a convert? Read on to find out.

Why The International Chronometry Competition Needs To Change Format Or Sink Into Total Irrelevance

November 7, 2015/4 Comments/in Events, Fairs & Exhibitions, Louis Moinet/by Ian Skellern

A watch for me isn’t just a portable three-dimensional sculpture or piece of kinetic art, it is first − if not foremost − an instrument for telling the time. Like you, I’ve excitedly followed the animated discourse and heated debate after the results of the 2015 Chronometry Competition were announced. Oh, you missed that? Me too.
