The New Cartier Santos: The First Men’s Wristwatch Gets a Modern Makeover

It was in 1904, when pocketwatches were still in style for gentlemen, that pioneering aviator and bon vivant Alberto Santos-Dumont approached his friend, Louis Cartier, about fashioning for him a timepiece that he could wear, and check the time, while keeping both hands on the controls of his aircraft.

SIHH 2018:

Discovering L’Astronomo: Panerai’s First Moon-Phase Watch is So Much More

While it is best known for the many variations on its classic Luminor and Radiomir collections, Panerai has dabbled, pretty impressively in some cases, with highly complicated, highly limited timepieces, as witness the brand’s Carillon Tourbillon Minute Repeater GMT from 2016, for example.

The New Jaeger-LeCoultre Polaris Collection Revives the Spirit of ’68

To most historians, the year 1968 was defined mostly by tragedies and setbacks — the assassinations of Robert Kennedy and Martin Luther King, the escalation of the war in Vietnam, unrest and protests on college campuses — but to students of horological history, the year offered some bright spots. One of these was undoubtedly Jaeger-LeCoultre’s...

Vacheron Constantin Gets Vintage Kicks with New FiftySix Collection

With 263 years (and counting) of watchmaking history to draw from, Vacheron Constantin needed to reach back only a little more than half a century to find the inspiration for its latest all-new timepiece family, unveiled today at SIHH 2018 in Geneva.

Bovet Edouard Bovet Tourbillon: A Triple-Threat Travelers’ Watch

The Bovet watch brand was incorporated in 1822, but its foundations were laid four years earlier, in 1818, when Edouard Bovet introduced his ticking masterworks to a collector in the Chinese city of Ghuangzhou. This year marks 200 years since that fateful journey, and today's Bovet is commemorating it with what it calls a high-end timepiece dedicated to travel: the Edouard Bovet Tourbillon, unveiled today ahead of the 2018 SIHH.
