This ground-breaking watch unites two worlds, namely, micro-mechanics and the extreme performance of Formula One™️. The Aston Martin Aramco Cognizant Formula One™️ Team is based in Silverstone, England, close to the iconic racetrack. With this in mind, the Girard-Perregaux Laureato Absolute Chronograph Aston Martin F1 Edition is limited to 306 pieces, the total distance drivers Lance Stroll and Sebastian Vettel will aim to cover on race day (5.891km x 52 laps) at the 2022 British Grand Prix.
The Pilot’s Watch Chronograph 41 Edition “Mercedes-AMG Petronas Formula One™ Team” is the first official team watch IWC created in the long-standing partnership with the team. The 41-millimetre Pilot’s Chronograph is crafted from lightweight and remarkably rigid grade 5 titanium. Offering the highest strength-to-density ratio of any metal, titanium is also widely used in automotive engineering to produce car parts subject to immense stresses, such as engine valves.
The Twin Turbo Furious takes the exceptionally cool and uniquely complex Twin Turbo concept and takes it to the next level by adding a Monopusher Chronograph and Pit Board time difference calculator to the original’s twin triple-axis tourbillon and decimal minute repeater. With its painstakingly hand-decorated and hand-assembled 832 components, the Twin Turbo Furious is a true Grand Complication Masterpiece that offers a singular combination of ultra-high-end mechanisms, all exclusive to Jacob & Co.
The story of the Reverso begins in 1931. With its rectangular and reversible dial, simple and refined lines, and iconic gadroons, this Art Deco-style watch revolutionized the art of watchmaking. In homage to this glorious past, the Reverso Tribute Small Seconds revives the codes of the first Reversos born in the thirties and their sumptuous colored dials. This new interpretation with a customizable reverse features a deeply intense green dial. On the wrist, this green shimmers with vibrant reflections under the light.
Conceived by one of the very earliest MB&F collaborators and Friends, Stephen McDonnell, LM Sequential EVO explodes the current limits of what the brand thought luxury chronographs could do. Just like the 2015 Legacy Machine Perpetual, the last major Stephen McDonnell movement for MB&F, LM Sequential EVO involved a back-to-the-drawing-board approach towards the most basic assumptions on chronograph construction.
These playful tributes to the planets celebrate the collaboration between the plucky company that saved the Swiss Watchmaking industry and the iconic maker of the Speedmaster Moonwatch. What takes this collection into orbit is the fusion of the most innovative Swatch BIOCERAMIC material with the key Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch design elements. There’s the asymmetrical case, the iconic ‘dot over ninety’ on the tachymeter scale and the distinctive Speedmaster subdials.
The RM 65-01 is Richard Mille’s interpretation of a highly complex motorsport inspired chronograph. It fully embodies a technical approach thanks to the combination of several additional functions, a very specific architecture and aesthetics of the highest order. The RM 65-01 is constructed with a highly specialised gearbox design for Winding, Date and Hand Setting functions.
Housing the iconic RD103SQ in a Ceramic Composite Fiber (CCF) and titanium case, the Excalibur Aventador S was the first horological expression of this high-speed partnership. Now in pristine white and limited to just eight pieces, the Excalibur Aventador S online exclusive features a range of easily identifiable design elements drawn directly from its motorised alter ego, complete with two sprung balances inclined at 45 degrees, strut bars, a power reserve with racing codes and an Alcantara strap.
Synonymous with excellence and reliability, Rolex watches are designed for everyday wear, and depending on the model, perfectly suited for a wide range of sports and other activities. Built to last, these timepieces are characterized by their distinctive and timeless aesthetics. The Oyster Perpetual Cosmograph Daytona is designed for those with a passion for driving and speed.
The first Monaco outfitted with an in-house Heuer 02 movement. Vintage, timeless design faithful to the blue, square-faced original Monaco, and packed with 80 hours power reserve. The sleek, 39mm steel case is polished and fine brushed. It catches the light at every angle. Under the elegant domed crystal, an angled aperture at 6 o’clock displays the date. Silver-toned interval markers and hour and minute hands seduce the eye
