SIHH 2014: Christophe Claret Poker

Following the introductions of the 21 Blackjack and the Baccarat, this year Christophe Claret completes his trilogy of gaming watches with the Poker.

SIHH 2014: Richard Mille RM 63-01 Dizzy Hands

From time to time, Watchmakers like to free us from the temporal demands our timepieces can place upon us, because every now and then, we all need to lose track of time.

3 Standout Skeleton Watches From SIHH 2014

Skeleton watches — which show off the watchmaker’s art by means of removing much of a watch’s movement so that only its “bare bones” remains, and giving us a glimpse of it through a transparent dial — were not as much of a presence at this year’s SIHH as in previous years. However, the few...

SIHH 2014: A. Lange & Söhne 1815 Tourbillon

The tourbillon has long been something of an enigma. It is offered as the ultimate in timekeeping precision, and its owners pay dearly for a watch that is supposed to be the ultimate in accuracy.
