Hublot MP-15 Takashi Murakami Tourbillon Sapphire Rainbow
Leading the pack this week, Hublot and Japanese contemporary artist Takashi Murakami have unleashed an absolute feast for the eyes: the MP-15 Takashi Murakami Tourbillon Sapphire Rainbow. This is no ordinary watch—it’s a wearable piece of pop art. Housed in a transparent 42mm sapphire case with Murakami’s iconic “smiling flower” motif, it’s adorned with 444 gemstones in a spectrum of hues, capturing Murakami’s vibrant style. The pièce de résistance is Hublot’s first central tourbillon, with a mechanism so intricate it took a reimagining of traditional watchmaking to pull off. Plus, a rechargeable stylus for winding? Ingenious. Limited to just 20 pieces, this one’s a true collector’s dream.
Chopard Happy Sport Métiers d’Art Panda Edition
Chopard has charmed us once again with its nature-inspired Happy Sport Métiers d'Art Panda Edition. Limited to eight pieces, this watch merges art with eco-conscious craftsmanship, featuring a panda nestled in bamboo on a mother-of-pearl dial. Its 40mm rose gold case, set with sparkling diamonds, frames the dial’s scene of cherry blossoms, giving off a tranquil, miniature ecosystem vibe. Inside, the Chopard Calibre 96.23-L keeps the dial lively with a 65-hour power reserve and those signature dancing diamonds, moving elegantly over the dial.
A. Lange & Söhne LANGE 1 Anniversary Editions
To celebrate the 30th anniversary of the iconic LANGE 1, A. Lange & Söhne presents limited editions in platinum with a striking black onyx dial (pictured) and in pink gold with a deep blue dial. Available in both 38.5mm and 36.8mm sizes, these pieces maintain their signature off-centre dial and outsize date, exemplifying balance and timeless design. Under the hood, the L121.1 calibre delivers precision with a 72-hour power reserve, visible through a sapphire caseback that showcases Lange’s exquisite finishing.
NOMOS Glashütte Orion and Tangente neomatik doré
NOMOS serves up understated luxury with a touch of gold in its new Orion and Tangente neomatik doré editions. The Orion’s gentle curves and 36.4mm size contrast with the Tangente’s crisp 35mm angles, each enhanced by refined golden accents. Running on the DUW 3001 calibre, both watches are marvels of slim design, fitting elegantly under a sleeve with NOMOS’s signature Horween leather straps. These doré models are a minimalist’s dream, with just enough of a golden glow to stand out.
Exaequo Melting Watch Collection Updates
For the surrealists out there, Exaequo’s new Melting Watch dives deep into dreamlike aesthetics. With its “melting” design with Roman indices, rose gold-toned oval case, and 47mm presence, this watch challenges perceptions of time and form, channeling a Salvador Dalí-esque vibe.
Breitling Avenger Collection Updates
Breitling expands its Avenger line with new chronographs and automatic models—including the slick 'Night Mission' pieces (pictured). Ranging from the commanding 46mm Super Avenger B01 in black ceramic with military-green leather, to the 42mm Chronograph in turquoise and sand straps, these watches are as functional as they are rugged. The COSC-certified calibres—like the B01 with a 70-hour power reserve—make these ideal companions for any mission, aerial or otherwise.
