Some weeks in the watch world are all about quiet releases and subtle tweaks. This week was not one of them. From a titanium chiming beast by Biver to a solar Seiko drenched in Edo-era purple, the horological sphere gave us plenty to talk about. We’ve got luxury-meets-lore collabs, enamel art, a hot new gaming collab and even a tribute to the Navy SEALs in gold. Here’s your cheat sheet:
Biver Carillon Tourbillon
Jean-Claude and Pierre Biver’s latest release feels more like a personal manifesto than a watch drop. The Carillon Tourbillon packs a triple-hammer repeater inside a 42mm titanium or rose gold case, blending visual drama with aural precision. The hand-finished dial surfaces and bridge shapes are rich in texture—part sculpture, part symphony.
Breguet Classique Tourbillon Sidéral 7255
This is Breguet pulling out the big guns for its 250th. After multiple big-ticket launches this season, the Sidéral 7255 sports the maison’s first-ever aventurine enamel dial—a sparkling backdrop for a delicately off-centre time display and exposed tourbillon. It’s romantic, technically dense, and—despite the cosmic name—still very much rooted in classicism.
Eberhard & Co. x Lancia HF
A quietly clever tribute to one of rallying’s most stylish badges, this watch channels the spirit of the Lancia Fulvia and Delta Integrale without going full Fast & Furious. Red accents, a vintage-style elephant logo, and optional rally-style straps seal the deal for Italian car nerds.
Hamilton American Classic Boulton Death Stranding 2 Limited Edition
Imagine strapping on a watch designed by Kojima Productions. Now you can. This special-edition Hamilton leans into Death Stranding’s eerie aesthetic, reimagining the retro Boulton in a future-forward case with etched details and a matte titanium vibe. More style than substance? Maybe. But fans (like me!) will love the lore baked into the details.
Girard-Perregaux Laureato Infinite Grey
Subtle, stealthy, and sharp—the Infinite Grey feels like a tailored suit for your wrist. With a Grand Feu enamel flinqué dial in steel tones, it sits in that sweet spot between under-the-radar luxury and serious watchmaking chops. A modern GADA classic in the making.
MG Select x Jaipur Watch Co.
Automotive luxury meets artisanal heritage in this Indo-British collab. A coin-style dial and hand-engraved Indian motifs give the piece visual depth, while a display caseback reminds you this isn’t just about design—it ticks with purpose. A soft launch with serious storytelling appeal.
Panerai Luminor Chrono Flyback & Luminor Luna Rossa (PAM01654 & PAM01653)
Panerai’s Luna Rossa editions continue their regatta-ready design sprint with recycled steel, bright red accents, and a beefy 44mm case. The Chrono Flyback feels more technical, while the simpler PAM01653 sticks to Panerai’s iconic sandwich dial and crown-lock silhouette. Both are built for the high seas—or high-end brunch.
Ressence Type 8 DE1 and DE2
These optical illusion dial watches aren’t just design flexes—they’re borderline art installations. Ressence’s latest DE1 and DE2 use concentric discs to create hypnotic, geometric visual effects that change depending on the viewing angle. The mechanicals are sleek, but it’s the wow factor that’ll make you double take.
Seiko Prospex Speedtimer Edo Purple SSC955
Seiko gets cultural with this Tokyo 2025 limited edition. The dial is a moody purple inspired by Edo-era pigment, and the solar-powered chronograph keeps things light on the wrist and heavy on practicality. For once, a limited Seiko that’s genuinely worth the hunt.
Bremont Supermarine 500M (904L Steel)
Built like a tank, but smarter. Bremont’s latest diver sports a 904L stainless steel case, ceramic bezel, and 500m water resistance—all upgraded with ergonomic tweaks and a wave-textured dial. If you want a British dive watch that won’t scream for attention but still performs, this one’s a sleeper hit.
Luminox Navy SEAL Foundation 3220 Gold-Colour Edition
Commemorating 25 years of the Navy SEAL Foundation, this gold-coloured 44mm tactical piece is a bit of a flex in Luminox terms. The carbon case keeps it light, the constant-glow lume ensures visibility for 25 years, and the commemorative caseback seals the deal. Not your usual bling—but it makes a statement.
