Introducing – Swedish Gold and Damascus Steel for the new GoS Winter Nights III

First Look – Holthinrichs Presents the Signature LAB Series 1 Small Seconds and GMT

10 years ago, a young architect named Michiel Holthinrichs had the idea to create watches… But not like every other young indie watchmaker. What made it unique? The Ornament 1 was the world’s first 3D-printed stainless steel watch. And it certainly had a design of its own, inspired by Michiel’s previous career. The specially-commissioned watch […]

Buying Guide – Slimming Things Down Part I – Five Of Today’s Best Ultra-Thin Watches

It’s often said that ultra-thin watchmaking should be considered a complication in itself, and there’s a lot of merit to that statement. Making a watch slimmer than, let’s say, a millimetre or six, seven, is a considerable challenge to overcome. Often, it demands a different philosophy as to how a watch and, even more so, […]

The Petrolhead Corner – BMW Goes All-Out With The M3 Touring GT3

There’s something inherently cool about a fast estate car. Putting an abundance of power in a car that can also haul the wife and kids to the south of France for a summer holiday just makes total sense. It will make long journeys comfortable and fast, as you blast down the highway with ease. But it’s rare […]

First Look – The New Generation Maghnam Mohareb, a Transformative Timepiece

Maghnam operates within an area that few independent brands genuinely explore. Urwerk, MB&F or even Hautlence have long defined the idea of futuristic, space-age watchmaking. Sohaib Maghnam, Qatar-based founder of Maghnam Watches, approaches the concept from a different angle. His watches are not only about unconventional displays, bold mechanics, form, structure, but also about, importantly, […]

Introducing – The New Felipe Pikullik Sternenhimmel, Powered by the New Calibre FPA1

The path of Felipe Pikullik has never been about sudden breakthroughs, but about steady, hands-on progression. Early pieces from his Berlin atelier were built on reworked Unitas movements, extensively modified, skeletonised and hand-finished to create something much more personal than their origins suggested. From the poetic Sternenhimmel to the more expressive ZBM1, and later regulator-style […]

Introducing – Moritz Grossmann Hamatic Silver-Plated by Friction, For the Founder’s 200th Anniversary

The Hamatic is one of the more unusual watches from Moritz Grossmann, mainly because of how it handles automatic winding. Instead of a central rotor, it uses a hammer-style system, where a pendulum-like weight swings freely in both directions, constantly feeding energy to the movement. It is a more animated way of keeping the watch […]
