Ferdinand Berthoud's Chronomètre FB 2RE, the first of a new collection; Greubel Forsey's Balancier S, its second sports watch; Patek Philippe's 5303R Minute Repeater Tourbillon: presenting a trio of high-mech watches that recently made their debut.

Under the aegis of the Time Aeon Foundation, whose mission is to preserve the hand-craftsmanship of watchmaking, the Naissance d’une Montre 2 project is nearing completion. A collaboration between Oscillon, Urwerk and Greubel Forsey, this one-of-a-kind watch is now in the final finishing and adjusting stages, with plans for an auction sale in Hong Kong on April 21, 2021.

Following its success at the Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève for the best Calendar Watch, Greubel Forsey presents its QP à Équation in 5N red gold with a chocolate-coloured gold dial.

This new GMT with a redesigned case takes Greubel Forsey into new terrain with its bold sports aesthetic.

Now held every two years, the fourth Dubai Watch Week is the biggest yet, with masterclasses, panels, exhibitions and 44 exhibitors showcasing their collections at this non-commercial event.

Holding the Greubel Forsey Hand Made 1 in your hand is a little bit like holding the Mona Lisa. So far, there is only one of its kind, and it is a thing of almost sublime beauty.

Recent developments have enabled watchmakers to overcome some of the difficulties inherent to working with sapphire and use its transparency to ever more spectacular effect. However, the greatest challenges aren't always where one might think. The proof with MB&F.

Brands imagine their watches as objects of desire, intended to appeal to our emotions. When adding method to these emotions, they have two means at their disposal: the addition of complications and words that sell.

For the third time, Phillips put independents front and centre of its sale, headlined by George Daniels. Connoisseurs packed the saleroom for the British auction house's May date, with the hammer coming down on several record-breaking lots.
