SIHH 2017,
When a brand like Vacheron Constantin introduces a new timepiece, the expectations are high; this manufacturer is synonymous with the pinnacle of Swiss Made heritage, and nothing can go wrong. Currently, eleven are the collections offered by the brand, and each has its pedigree and clear vision. Nonetheless, the Vacheron ...

The very first post I wrote last year was about a Cartier, namely the Cartier Drive de Cartier Moon Phase, and 2019 is no different. After having discovered pros and cons of the new Santos de Cartier Chronograph, let's jump back to SIHH 2017 for a while and discuss one of ...

SIHH 2017,
Baume & Mercier is the only brand to actually partner with two iconic brands of American motor racing: Shelby Cobra and Indian Motorcycles. The Baume & Mercier Shelby Cobra collection has been today complemented by the partnership the Swiss brand signed with Indian Mororcycles but there's no doubt it still is ...

Richard Mille,
Watch Reviews,
SIHH 2017,
I always wait for the SIHH to take place (and the SIHH 2019 especially) because I am curious to see the releases of this tiny high-tech manufacture that more resembles an aerospace company rather than a watch-making manufacturing company. What to expect from Richard Mille during its last SIHH after releasing ...

An intuition coupled and Gerald Gènta's design Let's jump back in the time. It was 1972, the Italian market was the reference market in Europe, the one that dictated trends; and to meet demands from this market, the Audemars Piquet Royal Oak reference 5402 was created - the very first ...

Cartier,
Watch Reviews,
SIHH 2017,
More and more often I notice people wearing watches that are usually considered and defined by the general public as "sporty, but elegant", "suitable for all occasions" or labeled as "must-have-watches". This group of people includes guys my age (about 25) who choose a specific brand simply because it represents ...

The Tourbillon is the complication par excellence; the one, where the skills of a watch-maker are put to the test and it is also the complication that brings together, for a brief moment, big and small manufactures, because this is where the concept of serial production leaves room for the ...

Ulysse Nardin,
Watch Reviews,
SIHH 2017,
I have often told a particular story when writing about Ulysse Nardin. When I was young, maybe between 14 and 15, I started become passionate about timepieces, but, strangely enough, my passion didn’t ignite by following the brands that we all know, but it was being fuelled by a niche ...

Watch Reviews,
SIHH 2017,
When we think about an ultra-flat timepiece, we immediately associate our thought to the PIAGET Altiplano; the most famous specimen from the PIAGET manufacture. This watch immediately became an icon of elegance and discreet wearability, its thin case and its simple lines make it an evergreen that has remained faithful ...

Being struck by the beauty of pure and unspoilt nature is still something that can touch our souls; the atmosphere that permeates some landscapes will never stop softening our hearts and bringing us back to a fairy tale.
