    Linde Werdelin 3-Timer Watch Now In Lucky Green

    Filed under:

    Oh the lucky of the... English, Swiss, Northern European? Linde Werdelin may have no connection to the Irish, but their new 3-Timer with a rich forest green dial may still make you feel lucky. Recently brown watches became the "in hued timepieces," and maybe green is going to be next big thing. Regardless, green has always been a solid watch color for the right outfit. Though you need to choose carefully, as a grass green watch isn't going to go with your standard black or blue suit. For me, this is a good watch to wear on days when you want people to be green with envy around you.

    Green is the newest dial color for the 3-Timer watch, but will still be highly limited in production to just 22 pieces. Making them almost as rare as a four-leaf clover. The case in steel, is matched to a black calfskin strap. For more on the 3-Timer watch itself, you can consult my review here. Price for this limited edition green dialed version is 4,920 euros.

    Chopard Happy Sport XL Lady's Watches

    Filed under:

    The Chopard Happy Sport watch collection seems to be the bread and butter sports watch line for ladies from the Swiss brand that sees no end in its limitless variations. The new limited edition Happy Sport XL line is large at 42mm (in steel) wide for women, in three colors - blue, coral, and green mother-of-pearl. New hands and unique dials are what characterize the collection. In my opinion the cool water blue dial of the blue version is going to be the top earner of the bunch - though they are all very nice. The dials are done in various types of lacquers, with of course the free floating diamonds steel in gold (or maybe steel) that hover around in a sandwiched section in the middle dial. Love those fat colorful hands, and the rubber strap. Sporty and colorful indeed - with artistic dials - making them VERY Chopard in nature. Likely to have Swiss quartz movements.

    The Happy Sport XL collection is going to be a limited edition of just 500 pieces (of each style). They are going to be exclusively available at Chopard brand boutiques. Nice overall, but the prices start at a whopping 5,590 euros. Seriously, just once do I want to be "pleasantly surprised" by the prices of watches in this segment.

    Dior Christal Watch With Patent Leather Strap

    Filed under:

    Ah yes, just what the world needed more of - patent leather. Ahem, no. I mean patent calfskin leather. The softest leather, for the softest vinyl-like finish. Patent leather is funny because it looks cool on shoes for graduating marines, and hot chicks in questionably themed night clubs. It just has that many purposes... that many personalities.

    Dior watches will not be using patent calfskin leather in their new Christal watch collection that hearkens back to a Kennedy era age. JFK, Kennedy that is. Jackie O would have more than likely swooned over this piece with its fascinating asymmetrical design that looks chic, and is actually loosely based on a diver's watch. The markers on the bezel get further apart proportionally, akin the unfolding of a natural spiral. The rest of the watch is pretty much at home in the Christal family. With plenty of diamond decoration, and the usual afterglow of Dior pretentiousness. Nevertheless, nice watches, and that is all we know until Dior graces us with more details.

    MotoGP Star Jorge Lorenzo Wins Tissot T-Touch Expert Watch

    Filed under: ,

    Recently at the 2010 MotoGP race at Laguna Seca near Monterey, CA, I got to see Jorge Lorenza get a 1st place win at the race. The showboating young Spaniard wooed audiences with his post-victory clown acts that fans the world over come to expect and appreciate. Before winning the race itself, Lorenzo also received a 1st place position in the qualifying pole position race - for the fifth time in a row. This earlier lap taken the day before determines in what position the riders starts the actual race. Lorenzo also beat out everyone else in this race, and for his top results, was awarded a watch by Tissot - a long time major sponsor of MotoGP.

    Actually, Lorenzo won two Tissot watches that day. Another for when he won the race itself. Though as a privilege for getting a top time in the pole position lap, he got a nice Tissot T-Touch Expert watch - presented to him directly by Sharon Buntain, Tissot's US President. Lorenzo will likely we wearing the Tissot watch with frequency - just as many people in MotoGP do (given that Tissot has been associated with MotoGP for so long).

    Hamilton 'Lady Hamilton' Vintage Watches For 2010

    Filed under:

    Once, most ladies' watches use to look like this, delicate little things that felt like jewelry with watch movements in them. That was about 100 years ago, and while Hamilton was still American, it made lots of these. Today watches like this aren't common - at least not newly made ones. But with the throw-back kick that is so popular, Hamilton has decided to give it a shot. Maybe they will sell? There is always that post-modern flapper crowd to market to right?

    'Lady Hamilton' was the name given to Hamilton watches... for ladies back them. So the new models are called the "Lady Hamilton Vintage" watches. Seems to make sense. Small, at 15mm wide by 28.55mm long, these watches are pretty true to their historic sizes. In steel, they come in either black or gold PVD coated tones as well. The dials come in black or white, complete with art deco inspired faces. Hamilton is even making a few of these available with diamonds on the case. Priced from $545.

    Harrison Ford & Hamilton Work Together On The Khaki Team Earth Collection Watch

    Filed under:

    The strong smile of Harrison Ford is a benefit to any charity, so Conservation International is lucky as hell to have him on board - which they have been lucky enough to claim for several years. Now Ford and Hamilton work together (I believe for the second time) on a Khaki Team Earth Collection watch. Proceeds of which will partially go to help Conservation International, and the Team Earth project. It is all about protecting the environment, and conserving our most precious resource, the planet.

    The watch, based on the famous Hamilton Khaki is done in the brand's new vintage style for the collection. In steel, the watch is 42mm wide with a Swiss ETA 2824-2 automatic movement on the inside. I love the classic look of the dial, and the easy to read face. The distressed pilot watch style strap is a nice look, which completes the aviation theme with the coined edge bezel. If I recall correctly from Indiana Jones, Ford knows how to fly a plane, but not land one! Price for the Hamilton Khaki Team Earth watch is a reasonable $895.

    F.P. Journe Special Edition "China 2010 Tourbillon Souverain" Watch

    Filed under:

    As a reminder to its Chinese customers, of how much F.P. Journe appreciates their business, the high-end luxury watch brand has released five of these limited edition "China 2010 Tourbillon Souverain" watches. This coincides with the brand's opening of its Beijing boutique store. More and more high-end brands are opening up shops in China's wealthier regions. One of the reasons seems to be that Chinese customers take brands with their own stores more serious, as opposed to brands which are only placed in third-party stores. The China 2010 Tourbillon Souverain watch will be housed in a platinum case with a special dial that resembles the Chinese flag. Stars are placed along the power reserve indicator. Aside from the tourbillon on the dial, the watch features the time in an offset dial, as well as a subsidiary seconds dial. Pretty much the ultimate Swiss watch for the proud Chinese industrialist. Not sure about price of availability, like I said, there are only to be five of these models.

    Panerai Honors Its Internet Fans With Limited Edition Watch

    Filed under:

    With animosity toward the internet waning, watch brands are starting to change their attitude toward fans on the net, as well as sales there (here). Panerai has just released a limited edition watch (the PAM 360) in honor of the unofficial Panerai fan forum site Paneristi.com. The online community of brand lovers has been invaluable for Panerai, and this little nod in their direction is a great message to active brand fans everywhere. Specifically, the watch is said to be in honor of the website's 10th anniversary. The limited edition of 300 watches will be sold via the site by moderators, to active Paneristi members only. There is likely to be an element of seniority and activity involved in the selection - so don't plan on joining now expecting one of the watches.

    The PAM 360 starts of course with custom "Paneristi.com" engravings on the caseback. The steel case is DLC black coated, with a lovely amount of contrasting luminant. The dial is very simple - the absolute most minimalist a Panerai watch can get. The light tan leather strap looks attractive against the black case. Price is up there at about $6,700 each - but it barely matters for Panerai's more elite group of super fans.

    Raymond Weil Maestro Mechanical Collection Watches

    Filed under:

    While not exactly unique, these are classic in style. Given the watch industry's big backward turn this year - as dozens of "throw-back" and traditional style pieces are released - Raymond Weil is trying to get their fill with some good ol' Breguet style dials. That means guilloche machined engraved metal and blued steel pomme hands. In addition to being attractive, this dial design benefits from being quite legible as well. The soft curved steel cases are 39.5mm wide, and quite thin at just 9mm thick. Dials have either Roman or Arabic numeral dials, and attractive engraved patters on the dial interiors. While dozens of brands have watches like this, few of them have the large distribution network that Raymond Weil has.

    In addition to the central seconds models, there is also a subsidiary seconds version. As the name suggests, the watches contain Swiss Sellita SW200 automatic movements. The Maestro collection features a style that won't quit, and is relatively timeless. If the price is right, I imagine they will do well in sales. Look for them soon.

    Porsche Design P'6612 Dashboard Le Mans 1970 Limited Edition

    Filed under:



    With 16 overall wins, nobody has won the 24 Hours of Le Mans more times than Porsche. The journey started in 1970 when Hans Herrmann and Richard Attwood led a 1-2-3 finish for the German team behind the wheel of the iconic Porsche 917 K. Forty years later, Porsche Design has released a special-edition chronograph to commemorate the occasion in the grandest of style.

    Bearing a dial styled after the 917 K's dashboard instruments and offset by the number 23 that adorned the triumphant 917 K and which followed Herrmann throughout his career, the Porsche Design P'6612 Dashboard Le Mans 1970 Limited Edition features an automatic chronograph movement and a tachometer scale around the bezel can be used to calculate overall speed, etched into the brushed and polished titanium case and affixed with a perforated calfskin strap with red topstitching reminiscent of the 917's steering wheel. Only 917 examples will be made, each accompanied by a scale model of the 917 K and a booklet signed by Herrmann and Attwood.

    Blancpain 500 Fathoms Watch Hands-On

    Filed under:

    It was highly anticipated, as well as highly controversial. The 500 Fathoms was to be the much beefier version of the classic Fifty Fathoms model from Blancpain. But was it a good idea? I first wrote about the Blancpain 500 Fathoms watch here. The current iteration of the Fifty Fathoms was cherry. A beautiful watch, in a robust case, with a killer in-house movement. Rumors were that adjusted properly, the movement could be accurate to within about a second a day - a number that is very good for a mechanical watch. For whatever reason the 500 fathoms was borne. In a larger case at 48mm in size, the 500 Fathoms has a unique look with torpedo hands and a titanium case that is water resistant to 1000 meters (not exactly 500 fathoms). Since the watch was initially announced, the dial has changed a bit. Here you get to see exactly what the production version looks like. The dial is extremely retro diver with a twist. The almost sunburst pattern on the dial is a thematic modern interpretation of the atomic symbol that was on the original Fifty Fathoms watch. Large Arabic numerals on the dial are lume filled, together with the hands. As you can see, early worries about legibility problems haven't come to pass.

    Jonathan Ellery Makes Handmade Bell & Ross Watch For Wallpaper Magazine

    Filed under:

    For their August "Handmade" issues, Wallpaper magazine is featuring a handmade watch by Jonathan Ellery based on a Bell & Ross BR01 Radar model. The watch will actually be part of a limited edition that will see public sales (at some point). Bell & Ross worked with Mr. Ellery to create the watch, which Ellery chose due to Bell & Ross' iconic status, especially in the design world. The dial is a reworked Radar with a white on black "explosion" motif. I can only guess as to what the hour and minute indicator are. Constantly rotating, the design only becomes clear twice a day. As a designer watch, it is rather fun - though not likely fun to have to read on a daily basis. Then again, this is art, and it doesn't need to be practical.

    March LA.B AM Series Watches

    Filed under:

    New watch brand March LA.B in the house. I like the clever name, at least the latter part of the name "lab" makes pretty much anything sound cool. Like guys in white coats with serious looks on their faces are designing the things. Well here it has a little double meaning due to the "." in the middle of it. As the brand hails from both Los Angeles and Biarritz France, you get that LA + B approach to the name. Among the three lines they have, the AM Series is the nicest. Seen here are just three of the versions. Designs hearken back to the 1960s, but also have a certain modern feel to them. Classy, but not boring, with enough of a design edge to satisfy most people. A good department store brand, as they aren't going to be too expensive (though I don't have specific prices yet).

    In steel, the 37mm wide cases are also offered with PVD gold coating. Water resistant to 100 meters, the crystals are mineral, but with that Sapphire coating that is popular these days. Inside the watches is a Swiss Ronda 517 day/date movement. Leather straps come in various textures, and there are steel bracelets available as well. I do like that signature green seconds hand. At 37mm wide, these aren't exactly big watches. On the lower side of medium actually. But March LA.B regards them as being unisex in style, so they are great for women and children, and men who haven't gotten on board the larger watch bandwagon. Look for them soon, as well as a March LA.B online shop.

In addition to being the official timekeeper for the event, luxury Swiss watch maker Audemars Piguet will also offer a limited edition watch in honor of the event. It will be the Royal Oak Offshore Tour Auto 2010 Chronograph watch. Set in the standard Royal Oak Offshore case, the racing flat inspired dial has a great look. Tone of slate, white, silver, and red mix to together with visual elements that are all about speed. Note the little checkered flag pattern near the top right part of the tachymeter scale.

    In a 42mm wide steel case, the back of the watch has a specially engraved design for the Tour Auto 2010 event. Inside the watch is a Audemars Piguet in-house made caliber 2363/2840 automatic movement, that has been beautifully hand decorated. The strap is leather with a perforated exterior.

    Urwerk UR-202 "White Shark" Highly Limited Watch

    Filed under:

    There are limited editions, and then there are "Rare Species Collection" limited editions. While no Urwerk watch enjoys high levels of production, they have a subset of even more rare timepieces. Here is their new "White Shark" UR-202 watch, based on the Hammerhead UR-203 watch that I discussed hands-on here. The UR-202 and UR-203 watches are among my favorite in terms of design and utility for Urwerk. I find that this retractable rod system for telling the time is great, all based on Urwerk's "satellite" system model for time indication. The UR-202 was the first of this collection, and is here being released in a very special limited version of just 12 pieces. In fact, there are only about three stores in the world that will carry this watch. Aside from telling the time, the watch has a moon phase indicator and a day/night indicator. You can lock the rotor for the automatic movement (during high vibration/shock activity) to protect the watch via a lever on the caseback.

    Called the "White Shark" due to its whitish silver color, this UR-202 is actually made from a steel and titanium case. Much "lower market" than other Urwerk watches. Meaning that this should be a relatively cheaper Urwerk model (still a high-end luxury watch though). The size of the watch is about 46mm by 43.5mm, and 15mm thick. The watch has a combo of satin and brushed finishing on the case. This mixes well with the similar tones on the dial and the perlage polish on the movement plate. The 12 watches will be spread out and available at Chronopassion in Paris, The Hour Glass in Singapore, and via Urwerk directly in Geneva. Check out some hands-on images here.

    Longines Expéditions Polaires Françaises Missions Paul-Emile Victor Watch

    Filed under:

    Swiss watch brands are almost universally against replica watches... unless that is, if they make the watch themselves! For 2010 Longines will offer a special edition re-release replica of a watch used by French scientists during a mission to the Arctic in Greenland. This was back in 1947, and they needed the right watch for the job. Two of the members of the Expéditions Polaires Françaises wore these special Longines watches that were made for the excursion. Unique features at the time included luminant on the watch dials, a centrally mounted seconds hand, as well a shock absorber system in the movement. The French team was led by scientist Paul-Emile Victor, whose name is part of the watch title.

    The reissue model is very similar to the original. With some differences that help the new version feel more modern, including an ETA 2892-2 automatic movement, as well as an AR coated sapphire crystal. The hands and hour indexes are now coated with SuperLumiNova. At 38.5mm wide in a steel case, the watch isn't exactly large - or pretty for that matter. It does have a certain nostalgic appeal to it, and it is highly legible, but it isn't going to win and beauty pageants. Just a decent retro looking watch with some interesting heritage, that people will likely mistake for a vintage. If that fits the description of the next watch that you want, them look out for this piece from Longines soon.

    Cuervo y Sobrinos Celebrates Spain's World Cup 2010 Victory With Watch

    Filed under:

    The win for Spain's "La Roja" soccer (football) team in the 2010 FIFA World Cup was an extremely joyous occasion for the Spanish people. While not a Spanish brand, Cuervo y Sobrinos has released a new (likely limited edition) watch in honor of the national team. Cuervo y Sobrinos is historically a Cuban brand, but now owned and operated by the Swiss. Special watches made for winning teams are often successful, especially since Spain gets to hold the title for at least 4 years until the next World Cup games.

    Based on their Robusto collection of watches, the "La Roja" watch is done with as much as is possible (and not be a silly looking red watch). In an 42-43mm wide steel case, the dial looks to be done in lume with red Arabic hour numerals and a "La Roja 2010" statement printed on the dial to remind you the purpose of the watch. It is matched to a red strap, and the caseback likely features a commemorative engraving. Inside the watch is a Swiss ETA 2895-2 automatic movement. Details are slim at this point, but the price will be 1,500 euros.

    Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Compressor Diving Navy SEALs Incursion Edition Watch

    Filed under:

    Such a long name for a watch! Get through all the confusion, and realize that this is a special limited edition version for the Beverly Hill Jaeger-LeCoultre boutique store, of the Master Compress Diving Navy SEALS watch from 2009. There will be a 19 pieces in black titanium and 62 models in gray PVD titanium. Why those amounts? Because together that makes "1962" which is the year the Navy SEALs were born. For tech details about the watch, you can refer to my earlier article on the Master Compressor Diving Navy SEALs watch here.

    This is my favorite model in their line up of watches made in partnership with the Navy SEALs. This model is 44mm wide with a manufacture automatic mechanical movement with an alarm complication. According to JLC, this Incursion Edition of the watch has some very minor little changes that further refine the timepiece. The new models here come in either yellow or orange accents. Black is mixed with yellow, with the gray version is mixed with orange. Very sporty and "look at me" for a watch tested by an arm of the military known for stealth. Ironic right? Given the beautiful, almost summery design of these watches and the JLC pedigree, I can't see them waiting to be sold for very long. Once again, they are exclusively available at the Beverly Hill Jaeger-LeCoultre boutique store.

    Hublot Watches & Manchester United Soccer Team To Hold $1,000,000 "Kicking" Contest To Support UNICEF

    Filed under: , ,

    Charity left up to chance? On July 22nd at 4pm in New York City on 23rd and Broadway in front of the Flatiron building, professional soccer players from England's Manchester United Soccer Club will try to hit a small target from 51 feet away with a soccer ball. The target will be shaped like an Hublot timepiece, and if one of Manchester United's finest hits the target, Hublot will donate a million dollars to UNICEF for charity.

    The "million dollar goal" as Hublot calls it will accompany a major outdoor event, and high participation is expected on the street in New York. Hublot and Manchester United have an existing partnership, as Hublot is a Sponsor of the team. Hublot has also created a limited edition collection of Manchester United "Red Devil" Big Bang watches (that are quite cool). In the event that no player hits the target and wins big for UNICEF, Hublot has still declared that it will make a sizable donation to the popular charitable foundation.
