TAG Heuer’s Monaco Mania
TAG Heuer is pulling no punches this month with three new Monaco releases, each celebrating the brand’s long-standing ties with motorsport—specifically the Monaco Grand Prix and the Indy 500. The Monaco Chronograph Racing Blue leans into a high-contrast dial with powder-blue accents, while the Chronograph Original revisits the iconic squared case in a sleeker, stealthy palette. For collectors who love a bit of flex, the Monaco Skeleton series now comes with pops of bright colour across an openworked dial. Same square case, same bold racing DNA, just with a little more attitude. Whether you’re into subtle nods to racing heritage or full-throttle statement pieces, TAG’s latest trio is all about showboating in style.
MB&F SP One
Leave it to MB&F to make a watch look like it’s defying gravity. The new SP One—crafted in 18k rose gold and 950 platinum—features three “levitating” elements on its dial that hover over a skeletonised base. It’s a visual trick that works, thanks to the architectural construction and high-polish finishing. With an in-house movement under the hood and just enough MB&F eccentricity, the SP One is as much a wearable art piece as it is a timekeeper.
Chronoswiss ReSec Snake
Chronoswiss goes full serpent mode with the ReSec Snake—a titanium regulator with a green PVD case and white rubber strap. The dial is a burst of textures, layers, and a retrograde seconds hand, while the 44mm case leans into the brand’s signature Breguet-esque lugs. It’s loud, it’s fun, and it’s unapologetically bold—whether you should wear it is another question entirely.
Extra Butter x G-Shock DW-5600BWP-2
Extra Butter’s new Mumbai flagship kicks off its G-Shock partnership with the G-5600BG-5—a solar-powered digital watch that looks as good as it feels to wear; playing on similar templates to the brands' previous collabs such as 2020's military-themed GM5600B-3EB. The standout? A unique, speckled design created by blending leftover resin scraps—white, olive green, and beige—into a marbled, earth-toned palette; it's always fun to see sustainability in watchmaking, and this example absolutely slaps. Each piece is different, a one-off aesthetic formed by chance and sustainability. This isn’t just style—it’s a low-waste commitment, backed by G-Shock’s signature toughness, solar charging tech, and a blend of fashion and function that makes it perfect for any day, any outfit.
Formex Field Automatic Gen 2
Formex’s Field Automatic Gen 2 keeps things simple, but not basic. The titanium case is now sandblasted for a tougher aesthetic, paired with new dial colours—Ice Blue, Coho Salmon, and Basalt Grey. It’s 40mm across, 150m water-resistant, and built for daily wear. A no-nonsense field watch with a touch of Swiss refinement.
Zenith Chronomaster Original Triple-Calendar Lapis Lazuli
Zenith’s new triple-calendar Chronomaster is a stunner—plain and simple. The 38mm case houses a rich blue lapis lazuli dial, a bold choice that elevates the classic El Primero aesthetic into gem-like territory. It’s a restrained, elegant piece with a subtle touch of opulence. Water resistance is just 50m (a bit of a letdown), but for a watch that’s all about visual impact, you probably weren’t taking it diving anyway.
