Jacob & Co. Zeus Watch, Bronze Panerai for Yacht's 90th Anniversary

This is the first model from the Astronomia collection where the dial is completely above the mechanism. The dial design is, to say the least, grandiose. Zeus, the thunder god, watches over the rotations of the three-axis tourbillon from above the clouds. The tourbillon rotates on one axis at a speed of once per minute, on another every 18 seconds, and on the third every 15 seconds.

The eyes of Zeus and the lightning in his hands glow in the dark thanks to Super-LumiNova. All this is enhanced with baguette-cut diamonds totaling 9 carats. The watch is released in a single piece. According to Instagram, this masterpiece costs $1.4 million.

A new release that pays original homage to the roots of the Reverso collection. The model's name mentions Pegasus - the winged horse from Greek mythology that carried Zeus's thunderbolts and became a symbol of freedom and creative inspiration. The references to Pegasus can be seen in the intricate engraving around the entire perimeter of the case.

In terms of functionality, the movement supports a second timezone indication and the operation of a dual-axis tourbillon. The inner tourbillon carriage rotates at a full revolution every 16 seconds, and the outer one once per minute. The watch is presented in a pink gold case. The release is limited to a series of 5 pieces. Read more about this model in the review.

The watch was released specifically for the annual vintage car show Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este, which A. Lange & Söhne is a regular partner of. Read more about this model in the review.

This new release combines a perpetual calendar with a large date and an unusual three-axis tourbillon with a cylindrical balance spring. One of the tourbillon carriages is tilted at a 90-degree angle to the balance, the second at a 90-degree angle to the first. Together they rotate at a speed of one revolution every 30 seconds. The third carriage is perpendicular to the second and completes a full rotation around its axis once per minute. All this is packed into the Duometre movement, equipped with two mainspring barrels. One supplies energy to the base movement, the other powers the complications.

The watch is presented in a platinum case with a platinum bracelet. The model is limited to a series of 20 pieces.

Three new versions of the perpetual calendar created for MB&F by independent watchmaker Stephen McDonnell. Unlike standard perpetual calendars, this one differs in that usual calendars skip 'extra' days of the month, while this represents a mechanical processor with a basic 28-day cycle, to which days are added.

This trio is distinguished by the presence of colored stones in the decoration. In two out of three cases, the 44 x 17.5 mm case is made of white gold and encrusted with blue/purple baguette-cut sapphires. The third model is presented in a red gold case and encrusted with rubies. The release of each model is limited to a series of 8 pieces. The estimated cost of the watches is €248,000 or $312,000.

The case dimensions are 45.6 x 27.4 x 7.56 mm. Inside is a manually wound movement with a 42-hour power reserve. All three models are limited to series of 30 pieces each. The estimated cost of the watches ranges from $120,000 to $150,000.

A new release for those who love bronze-cased watches and unique occasions for fresh releases. The reason for this model's release was the 90th anniversary of the vintage sailing yacht Eilean.

In addition to the bronze case, the watch has an appealing green dial with a grained finish, vintage acrylic glass, and a calfskin strap. Read more about this model in the review.

This novelty is the first chronograph in the Seamaster collection dedicated to the Bond franchise. The watch features a 44 x 17 mm stainless steel case. It is complemented by a black ceramic dial adorned with the wave pattern traditional for the modern Seamaster collection.

One of three new releases in the relaunched Chronomat line. The main changes in the line affected the case and bracelet of the watches. Now Chronomat models have closed lugs, and the bracelet is integrated into the case. Additionally, the watches have become thinner and more comfortable to wear. Plus, on this chronograph, the tachymeter scale has moved to the inner bezel, giving the model a cleaner design. The watches are available in steel and bi-color versions, as well as in a solid gold case. Read more about all the new Chronomat releases in the review.

This novelty marks the return of Longines diving watches to the catalog, first introduced in 1959 and relaunched in 2007. The watch features a 42 x 12.85 mm stainless steel case, equipped with two crowns. Instead of a glossy lacquered dial that reflected light, this model has a matte dial with a slightly grained surface. To achieve a matte texture, the vintage lume hands and numerals underwent sandblasting.

An important detail: the date window has been removed from the dial, returning the watch to its original minimalist design. Under the dial is a COSC-certified movement with automatic winding and a 3-day power reserve, based on the ETA A31.L11 caliber. The watch is recommended to be worn on a Milanese mesh bracelet with a micro-adjustment system. A rubber strap is included. The estimated cost of the model is €4,000.

The watch is recommended to be worn on a rubber strap or a synthetic fabric strap. Read more about this model in the review.
