Bulgari Launches Skeleton Version Of The Octo Finissimo Tourbillon

By Martin Green It is hard to surpass a watch like the Bulgari Octo Finissimo Tourbillon. Its style is subtle, yet distinctly Bulgari, Roman flair combined with the finest in Swiss watchmaking. That last part, that remarkable ultra-thin tourbillon, with a height of only 1.95 mm has always been hidden behind a dial with only an opening for the tourbillon. That is now about to change with the new skeleton version of this extraordinary watch.

For Ulysse Nardin, it was the first time that they exhibited at the SIHH, but they sure made an impact. Various novelties were introduced and among them a stunning new Regatta Timer. While available as part of the regular collection featuring a white or blue dial, it was the limited edition that Ulysse Nardin makes for Artemis that caught especially our attention. Ulysse Nardin used the experience and input of two yachtsmen of the Swedish team, Loïck Peyron, and Iain Percy, to create this unique watch.

Urwerk Celebrates 20th Anniversary With UR-T8

By Martin Green Time flies when having fun! That certainly goes for Urwerk, who celebrates this year its 20th anniversary and does so with the UR-T8 which they launched at the SIHH. The brand has come a long way in those twenty years, creating watches like the UR-103, UR-1001 and the EMC Time-Hunter. A signature feature of many of them are of course the three cone shaped discs indicating both the hour as well as the minutes, brought together by a stroke of genius. Of course, this complication is also present in the UR-T8, because what would a 20th-anniversary piece be without it?

Cartier Expands Fine Watchmaking Collection With Refined New Additions

For the SIHH 2017 Cartier is expanding the collection with new models, as well as some varieties of existing models. It is not a surprise that many of them are focussed on the brand's unique, mysterious movement, that has become one of the pillars of the Fine Watchmaking Collection.

By Martin Green Ever since its creation, the Audemars Piguet has kept the Royal Oak steady on the path evolution, yet at SIHH 2017 they surprised everybody with an unexpected revolution by introducing the Royal Oak Perpetual Calendar in ceramic. Although ceramic is not a new material for the brand, crafting an entire watch and bracelet from it is.

Roger Dubuis: The Year Of Excalibur…and Carbon

By Martin Green Roger Dubuis has declared 2017 the year of Excalibur and rightfully so! The collection is expanded with several exciting new models, of which two are the result of a new partnership with Pirelli. It might seem a bit odd, why would a watch brand team up with a tire manufacturer, even with the esteem of Pirelli. However, both brands have a lot in common, as they are dedicated to the development of new and improved materials. This is also the central theme of the two watches that they introduced based on this partnership.

By Roberta Naas Vacheron Constantin has long been known for its unwavering dedication to perfection and complications. This year at SIHH 2017, the brand stands true -- unveiling a one-of-a-kind watch that is the brand's most complicated wristwatch to date (It even tops the current holder of the title "most complicated wristwatch" currently on the market).
