Redefining masculine horology, each of these four new timepieces builds on an iconic watch design ensuring that they complement every look.
Featuring both the technological sophistication of world-class chronographs and strong masculine lines, these four new timepieces will have pride of place in any gentleman’s watch cabinet.
There’s something distinctive about men’s watches, and even as the watch industry sees the rapid growth of minimalist watch designs, classics from the big hitters like Breitling, Omega, and Rolex, with their technical dials and durable materials, never go out of style. Redefining masculine horology, these new timepieces from Breitling, Jaeger-LeCoultre, Cartier, and TAG Heuer will look good on every modern gentleman’s wrist.
Breitling Navitimer 01 Panamerican
Breitling’s new limited series Navitimer 01 Panamerican extends the brand’s iconic Navitimer collection, launched in 1956, with a 1,000-piece
limited series distinguished by a bronze-coloured dial, three hollowed counters and a circular slide rule designed to perform all calculations involved in airborne navigation.
A transparent caseback provides a chance to admire the Manufacture Breitling Caliber 01 movement, a high-performance, self-winding chronograph entirely developed and produced within the Breitling
Chronométrie workshops.
TAG Heuer Carrera Calibre CH 80 Chronograph
A newcomer to the TAG Heuer Carrera collection, the Carrera Calibre CH 80 Chronograph features an exquisite Calibre CH 80 movement combining thinness and endurance with an unprecedented 80-hour power reserve. Inspired by the first generation of Carrera watches, the Carrera Calibre CH 80 Chronograph reinterprets the aesthetic codes established by its illustrious forebears with powerful design, pure lines, and optimal ergonomics.
With displays arranged in a classic layout, with the chronograph minutes counter at 3 o’clock, the chronograph hours counter at 9 o’clock, and small
seconds at 6 o’clock, the overall look is based on black and white contrasts,
a tribute to the first Carrera “Panda” chronograph.
Cartier Calibre de Cartier Diver
More than just good looks, the new Calibre de Cartier Diver features powerful lines, a rugged case, and a 1904 MC self-winding movement, making it one of the brand’s most masculine pieces to date. Building on the original Calibre de Cartier, launched in 2010, the new Divers piece meets the challenge of combining Cartier style with the technical requirements of ISO 6425, which dictates diver watch criteria.
With a unidirectional bezel, water-resistant to 300 metres, and hands and dive-time indicator in superluminova, the Diver watch features a thick crystal face and a screw back with oversized seals to ensure optimal performance.
Jaeger-LeCoultre AMVOX2 Transponder
In the latest partnership between watch and automotive marque, the new Jaeger-LeCoultre AMVOX2 Transponder watch has the ability to start your
Aston Martin, while embodying a blend of high-end mechanics and ingenious electronics.
In addition to its tiny transmitter system, which serves to lock and unlock any model of Aston Martin sports car, the AMVOX2 Transponder maintains its unique vertical trigger chronograph functions, which enable the user to control the chronograph by merely pressing on the sapphire watch glass.
