Different from the MoonwatchThis link Speedmaster 1957 was actually introduced in the very same year link as the OMEGA link Speedmaster Professional 50th Anniversary model with the Seamonster logo printed on the dial (in gold color).
I link think it's definitely possible link Omega is gearing up for a larger Aqua Terra refresh later this year. The last major overhaul took place in 2017, when the Aqua Terra link turned 15 and its "teak panel" dial pattern was swapped from a vertical to a horizontal finish and the caliber 8800/8900 was introduced as standard across the line. So will Omega rock the Aqua Terra boat with more than some – admittedly quite cool – new dial color options? We'll have to wait and see.
The 1964 Coin watch, on the link other link hand, is a very famous creation. link This case-back-less watch was created with an ultra-thin movement set inside an authentic gold US$20 Double Eagle coin. It also graced the wrists of US presidents and prominent figures, like Nobel Prize laureates.
What I do know is that the Chronometre Souverain is one link hell of a watch that deserves more attention. It won the Men's Watch Prize in 2005, the year it was first released, link and is widely considered to be the simplest and arguably the most direct interpretation of what F.P. link Journe holds dear as a watchmaker; so much so that Journe gifted his mentor, the legendary watchmaker George Daniels, with a platinum example in 2010.
I have covered the No Time To Die Seamaster a few link times here on the site and got hands-on with it for the recent link Watching Movies video. link I really enjoy that watch, specifically the feel of it. Aesthetically, it's handsome but maybe a bit too faux-vintage for my tastes with all of the faux-patina and faux-military accouterment.
With a 41mm yellow gold case made link by the famed J.P. Hagmann, this nameless watch packs another noteworthy feature – a repeating complication that's been attributed link to one F.P. Journe. It’s a one-of-a-kind creation from two huge names in the watchmaking space and, after the dust settled, one collector wound link up with a 1992 piece unique to add to their collection.
IDC predicts huge jumps in global smartwatch shipments: from 51.3 million last year to 91.8 million units this year and 131.6 million by 2023. link "Smartwatches will still tell you the time, but will move deeper into health and fitness and connect with link multiple applications link and systems, both at work and within the home," Llamas says. One example he cites: parents using smartwatches to track their kids' location.
But, you might ask, which GMT is the best link GMT? Some may want the mid-century charm of a world timer, others the simple but flexible function of a flyer GMT, and still others link the fuss-free (and “cheap as chips”) nature of a 12-hour bezel. For me, the sweet spot is in an uncommon variety with a link very specific layout: The Dive GMT.
The new feature of the Ressence Type 1 Slim X seems somewhat minor at first. The main minutes satellite and the hour satellite have been given two finishes, divided along the vertical axis of each satellite (as defined by link the hour and minute indicators). On one side, there's a matte finish and on the other, a brushed circular finish. The two halves match up just twice a day, at noon and midnight, at which moment – and just for a link moment – the dial is link completely symmetrical.
