Elements of style
1. Patek Philippe
Triple Complication Ref. 5208P
Combining a chronograph, minute repeater and perpetual calendar, this grand complication is also the brand's first to incorporate silicon-derived components in the balance spring and escapement. Silinvar is not only hard and lightweight but also anti-magnetic and corrosion-resistant.
2. Jaquet Droz
Grande Seconde SW Red Gold-Titanium
Blending modern materials and traditional design, the latest incarnation of the Grande Seconde SW collection features a carbon-fibre dial, ultra-lightweight titanium and brushed red gold accents.
3. Richard Mille
RM 035 Rafael Nadal, Chronofiable Certified
Designed to withstand the rigours of Grand Slam tennis tournaments, the latest Rafael Nadal watch combines PVD-treated titanium and a magnesium-aluminium alloy. The result is an extremely light, yet rugged timepiece with a skeletonised movement weighing just 4.3 grams.
4. Omega
Seamaster Planet Ocean Liquidmetal
This limited-edition timepiece is the first to bond ceramics and Liquidmetal, an Omega innovation that is three times harder than stainless steel. The result is a perfectly smooth bezel that is highly resistant to scratching and matches perfectly to the ceramic dial.
5. Oris
Col Moschin Limited Edition
Oris teamed with an Italian Special Forces regiment to design this rugged, all-terrain watch incorporating a lightweight titanium case and tungsten minutes scale top ring.
6. Panerai
Luminor Submersible 1950 3 Days Automatic Bronzo
Structurally strong and resistant to corrosion, bronze has long been associated with life at sea. Panerai turns to the iconic material for the first time in this vintage-style model, harnessing its ability to develop a patina over time that will make each piece unique.
