About this deal

If its name is a mouthful, perhaps that is in part to make up for this watch’s remarkably brief dimensions. The use of an integrated bracelet provides improved wearing comfort, further enhanced by a reduced mass when looking at the titanium version; it’s also offered in stainless steel. Titanium, long prized for its incredible strength-to-weight ratio, is used in spacecraft, race cars, and other places where performance is measured down to the millisecond.

This modernized version of a WWII field watch combines the looks of the 1940s with 21st century technology. There’s also the consideration of allergy — while not common, there is a small percentage of the population that’s allergic to certain titanium alloys, and thus going the route of ceramic or carbon can make a fair bit of sense.With a satin-finished silver dial, rhodium-plated hour markers and a double-faced cashmere and alligator leather strap, this watch may be thin, but it’s definitely not missing anything.

Among the new releases to mark the 70th anniversary of Panerai’s Luminor line, this brand new PAM01663 shows off some very impressive material technology. The understated diver features a crisp wave patterned dial, a day and date indication, and a ceramic bezel insert for increased robustness. In honour of the brand’s 60th anniversary this year, Grand Seiko has released a slew of new models and movements. The combination of its slim profile (perfect for slipping under a shirt cuff) and austere black dial, plus the unexpected touch of the seconds subdial at 9 o’clock, ensure this watch will look jut as good 60 years from now. mm thick, this slim dress watch is a good example of Nomos’ signature aesthetic, and the movement inside (the Nomos calibre DUW) 3001) is among their latest and most advanced.Once again, it trades off to titanium to lighten the overall structure and rigidity needed to dive to such depths. It contains an H-10 automatic movement that will run accurately for up to 80 hours between wears, with a scratch proof sapphire crystal and a sturdy calf leather strap that will patina beautifully with age. This makes it not just the world ’ s thinnest automatic perpetual calendar wristwatch, but a true marvel of modern watchmaking.

Using its Swatch Group-derived automatic Caliber 80, the watch offers an impressive 80-hour power reserve. Still, for a 45mm-wide tourbillon, it cuts a remarkably svelte figure thanks to its skeletonized dial and liberal use of multi-layered carbon in the case, bracelet and even parts of the movement. These limited-edition pieces celebrate the colour theory pioneered by Le Corbusier in a rainbow of eye-catching hues. thick RM 67-02 is the use of Carbon TPT and Quartz TPT, proprietary composite materials chosen for their spectacular strength-to-weight ratio and shock resistance. Appropriately for such a high-performance watch, previous editions honour Olympic track stars, skiiers and tennis champions, while this recent version is dedicated to French World Rally Champion Sébastien Ogier, and liveried in his flag’s colours of of red, white and blue.Before quartz movements changed the game, watchmakers like Vacheron Constantin were locked in a race to create the thinnest, finest, most complicated movements possible. thick movement is the heart of this timepiece, designed and built by Chopard at their manufacture in Fleurier, Switzerland. Even simpler and more conventional dive watches can benefit from a titanium case and bracelet, including things like Mido’s Ocean Star 200C. Nomos is a German brand known for understated modern watches with high-quality mechanical movements.

While watchmakers have been playing around with the material for decades, this year’s best sports watches make use of the ultralight alloy as never before.

Thanks to a slim quartz movement and a case made out of high-tech ceramic, this watch and bracelet weigh in at just 80 grams. While this reference carries some of that legacy with it, its 1,000m water resistance and new shrouded crown design are properly modern additions. The Aquaracer collection as a whole has been going through changes in recent year, tipping its hat to past references from the ’90s. In addition to Carbotech, the brand’s proprietary carbon fibre composite, and sandblasted titanium, this Luminor’s case is made using Fibratech, a new aerospace material made from unidirectional mineral fibres derived from basalt rock.
