On the occasion of the 20th anniversary of the Patrimony collection, Vacheron Constantin reveals a new self-winding limited edition, the fruit of a collaboration with Ora ïto. Inspired by a 1957 model, the Geneva-based Maison launched the Patrimony collection in 2004: stemming from classic traditional watchmaking, it is distinguished by understated design and a rare aura of elegance.
The Nyon-based house unveiled its last co-creation with the contemporary artist Takashi Murakami, introducing the MP-15 Takashi Murakami Tourbillon Sapphire Rainbow, reimagining the Japanese artist’s iconic smiling flower as a sapphire sculpture set with colourful gemstones and fitted with Hublot’s first central tourbillon movement.
Last October, to mark its anniversary weekend, the Musée International d’Horlogerie gave a public presentation of an exceptional night clock designed in 1682 by Pietro Tommaso Campani, an emblematic figure in Italian watchmaking.
The watchmaker has unveiled a limited edition of the Khaki Field Titanium, created in partnership with New York-based clothing brand Engineered Garments. In its 25-year history, New York-based design house Engineered Garments has established an aesthetic that is completely its own by drawing on design elements from founder Daiki Suzuki’s native Japan with references to classic Americana style staples.
The Bioceramic MoonSwatch Mission to Earthphase celebrates our two nearest celestial bodies, the Earth and the Moon. Swatch’s new non-limited creation not only comes with a moon phase, but more importantly – and for the first time in watchmaking history – an earth phase. Never before have these two fascinating complications been combined in the same watch. In so doing, Swatch puts a different spin on Galileo’s famous quote “And yet it moves!” and playfully declares “And yet they move!”.
After Hong Kong, Ho Chi Minh City and New York, the Foundation of the Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève inaugurated, on 30 October 2024, the fourth stage of the world tour at the Musée Rath in Geneva, where it is presenting the 90 timepieces nominated by its Academy.
The Schaffhausen-based watchmaker launched a limited-edition timepiece, created in collaboration with Massena Lab. Produced in 100 pieces, the Endeavour Chronograph Compax is much more than a simple chronograph: it embodies a journey through the history and also the mysteries of H. Moser & Cie, whilst celebrating contemporary innovation.
