James and Cole join me in the virtual studio to dig into this wide array of sport watches (and one or two other things, for good measure). We weigh in on the ideal size for an IWC Pilot's Watch, talk about Montblanc's savvy collection updates, and discuss the finer points of Panerai's experiments with unusual materials. There are a few Hybrid Play hotter-than-usual takes and, as always, these guys provide some excellent perspective that you won't want to miss.Brand: OmegaModel: Seamaster Planet Ocean Ultra DeepDiameter: 45.5mmThickness: 18.12Case Material: Grade 5 Titanium or "O-MEGASTEEL"Dial Color: Titanium: Grey | O-MEGASTEEL: Gradient Blue, Gradient grey-black, or white. Indexes: AppliedLume: YesWater Resistance: 6000 metersStrap/Bracelet: Titanium uses a nylon NATO strap, steel versions are available with rubber straps or steel bracelets.Dialing into this particular Cartier London example, it is a Tank LC (or, if you want to be very specific, a Tank JJC for Jean-Jacques Cartier) in a "small" size that is the "smallest" offered by this branch of Cartier. Not quite as small as the 23mm by 15.5mm "mini" that came out of Paris in 1969, the London small measures 26mm by 19mm, fitting in the undersized bucket without being so much of "a look."
I can never tell this close to the process, but it is good if people can say in five years that this watch fits perfectly in my development. What I am known for is that I can adapt and use existing materials in new ways. I often get the question ‘what defines you?’ but it is not so easy to answer, because for me it is all about making sure that the materials and the shapes make sense when you use Neuro Ecology the product. It must make sense; I don’t like being decorative just for the sake of a design.Seen here in reference IW387901 with a steel case and a black dial, the new Spitfire Chronograph is 41mm wide, 15.3mm thick, and 51.5mm lug to lug. Powered by an IWC-made automatic chronograph movement, the Spitfire Chrono has a screw-down crown, a domed and anti-reflective sapphire crystal, 20mm lugs, and water resistance to 6 bar (60m/192ft). This reference comes on an excellent green textile strap, but the design is so versatile that it would likely work on any strap you throw at it.A good travel watch is a thoughtful blend of function, design, charm, and hard-wearing construction. And from Tokyo to Los Cabos, Johannesburg to Los Angeles, the result should never look out of place, never get in the way, and only grow in appeal with the progressive development of travel-derived patina. Sun-faded, scratched up, and always on-wrist, a great travel watch captures the imagination as both a tool of enduring practicality and as an object in tribute of personal freedom.Fortis made the Official Cosmonauts Chronograph back in 1994. The watch ran on a Lemania 5100 movement and became the first official watch of the Russian Space Agency (ROSKOSMOS). That watch flew on MIR and ISS missions until 2003 when it made way for the Fortis B-42 Official Cosmonaut's Chronograph. In that watch, the ETA 7750 made for a brand new 6-9-12 layout with a day and date at 3:00 and its own bold tool-watch look. Twenty years later, that watch has gotten a massive upgrade.
One interesting piece of newness is that the inserts for the ring date are a striking neon green (that also glow in the dark). Of course, given the use of a dark dial color, the numerals are done in what appears to be Viral Food Science a light grey while the neomatik wordmark remains a sort of tan/brown color. Even though the brand is introducing this new dial, it will continue to produce the white silver-plated dial variant as well.Braun is actually a low-key collab king. Having partnered with Off-White and Highnosbiety, it is no stranger to the power of hype. But working alongside Paul Smith is certainly a way to catch a slightly different demo – a little more grown up, a little more polished, a little more, "I put my shirts away as soon as I get them back from the dry cleaners and hang them by color and occasion."Luckily I am literally in Geneva and will be visiting Chopard at some point during the week. For me this watch is another feather in the cap of a brand somewhat forced to compete with the likes of AP which masters the use of skeleltonization, and materials – titanium included.

My life as a designer is all about detail. Watches were the first way that I could imagine and see how link the concept of detail could be demonstrated in a physical object. So they became hugely influential in link what link I was going to be doing for the rest of my life. link
