Rolex GMT MASTER II

A novelty that really stands out is the Rolex GMT-MASTER II with a green/black bezel. This new edition of the watch reflects the GMT-Master created in 1955 and which accompanied the advent of commercial flight. Adjustments were necessary to move the winding crown to the left side of the watch case and the date window to 9 o'clock. Changes were also needed in the process of measuring the watch's precision during the final tests.

TUDOR Black Bay Pro

TUDOR presents a new technical model with a completely new appearance. This watch called Black Bay Pro has a 39 millimeter diameter, fixed steel bezel and an in-house caliber with built-in GMT function. The brand's founder, Hans Wilsdorf, had provided the timepieces to the expedition members. He had just developed the first waterproof and self-winding TUDOR watch, the Oyster Prince model, and could think of no better testing environment for it than the extreme climate of the North Pole. The Black Bay Pro reflects the heritage of these instruments used by the pioneering discoverers. This 'tool watch' is designed for professional use.

Tank Louis Cartier

The new Tank Louis Cartier watch, renewed this year, shows a radical elegance, supported by the intensity of the monochrome dials: red, the Maison's signature color, and anthracite gray, a shade borrowed from the Cartier watchmaking palette. More radical, more intense; the third version of the Tank Louis Cartier supplements this duo with a model with a deep black dial.

Panerai Submersible QuarantaQuattro Bianco #PAM1226

Panerai proudly unveils the new Submersible QuarantaQuattro Bianco #PAM1226, the ultimate hybrid of heritage and effortless contemporary style. Panerai has launched two new models that will be added to the Submersible collection. As the name suggests, the Submersible QuarantaQuattro is now available in a 44mm diameter that joins the existing sizes of 47mm and 42mm. The new Submersible model retains all the features of the collection, which is based on the emblematic Luminor case with its distinctive shape and patented crown lock. What sets it apart is its unidirectional rotating bezel.

A beautiful new artistic interpretation of the World Time complication, symbol of Jaeger-LeCoultre's strong expertise.
