@louisvuitton Louis Vuitton’s new Tambour Taiko Arty Automata is a delicious riot of color, high watchmaking and Monogram flower power. It is the kind of watch that proves it is one thing to take oneself seriously, and quite another to do so while having a serious dose of fun - something Louis Vuitton embraces here with gusto.

Set in a 42mm white gold Tambour Taiko case, the watch brings together seven animated elements on a dial alive with Monogram flowers, feathers, lips, a rocking heart and a message that shifts from “Love” to “Move.” A one-minute flying tourbillon at 6 o’clock keeps the spectacle grounded in horology, while the psychedelic sunburst time display adds yet another layer of theatricality.

The dial itself is a feat of craftsmanship, requiring 250 hours of work and 23 shades of grand feu enamel to achieve its richly layered, high-gloss three-dimensional effect. Turn the watch over and the exuberance continues, with the in-house Caliber LFT AU05.01 visible beneath a sapphire caseback, alongside a hand-decorated white gold rotor echoing the same graphic spirit.

Chronographs are among the most difficult complications to execute well. At the highest level, traditional, hand-finished, manually wound, in-house examples have long been the province of a very small number of manufactures, and in practice dominated by just two names. Among independents, they remain exceptionally rare, due to the extensive development work, production complexity as well as the technical challenges inherent to the complication. If anyone were to take it on, it was always likely to be @rexhep.rexhepi Rexhep Rexhepi, and his answer arrives with all the expectation that such a complication, in such hands, inevitably carries.

The Rexhep Rexhepi Chronograph Flyback (RRCHF) measures 38.8mm in diameter and just 9.7mm high. It is offered in two variations, with dials in grand feu enamel – stormy blue for the platinum model and black for the rose gold version – each paired with grey-tinted sapphire counters. It brings together a combination of technical qualities that remains rare – an instantaneous jumping minutes display and a flyback function.

@montblanc Montblanc’s 2026 watch novelties feel less like a scatter of releases and more like a tightening of identity. What comes through most clearly is a brand sharpening the lines between its contemporary sports watches, its explorer-driven 1858 collection and the more classical language of Star Legacy, while using 0 Oxygen as the technical signature that increasingly ties much of it together.

At the center is the new Iced Sea Automatic Date 0 Oxygen, which leads the lineup as the clearest expression of Montblanc’s current direction: a modern dive watch with a distinctive visual language, from its distressed steel case and glacier-pattern dial to the practical logic of its oxygen-free construction. Around it, the concept expands through more atmospheric and material-driven takes on the Iced Sea, while the 1858 Geosphere Mount Elbrouz continues the brand’s mountaineering narrative with a white-and-brown sfumato glacier-pattern dial, a titanium and composite case, and Montblanc’s signature world-time display.

Elsewhere, the 1858 Small Second brings 0 Oxygen into a more compact field-watch format, while the latest Star Legacy pieces preserve the classical side of the brand, culminating in the Nicolas Rieussec Chronograph Limited Edition 821 - still one of Montblanc’s most distinctive mechanical propositions.

@bedaaofficial Beda’a introduces the Angles Guichets, a new permanent addition to the Angles collection and its first complication.

As the name suggests, the time is displayed through apertures: an upper arc tracks a 24-hour cycle from 6am to 6pm via the passage of the Sun and Moon, while minutes are indicated below by a rotating disc aligned against a fixed arrow, shown in five-minute increments. No hands, no seconds, instead an object that has bee consciously designed to show a different side of time.

Housed in the collection’s eight-faceted 37mm case, the Angles Guichets preserves its architectural identity while reworking the dial into an almost entirely closed, embossed surface. ...

@k_chaykin Konstantin Chaykin’s ThinKing Mystery arrives at a moment when ultra-thin watchmaking is no longer only about records, but about what comes after them. The first wave is always about the headline number. The more interesting phase is when a watchmaker begins proving that such extreme engineering can move beyond experiment and into something more resolved, more usable and more fully thought through.

At just 1.65mm thick, the watch remains astonishing on paper, but ThinKing Mystery is equally notable for how comprehensively that thinness has been engineered. Its in-house calibre K.23-3.1 is integrated into the caseback, while the construction rethinks the case, strap and winding system as part of a single architecture. Chaykin also uses a dual-balance system with toothed coupling and an ultra-thin barrel, helping raise the power reserve to 38 hours.

Visually, ThinKing Mystery pushes Chaykin’s signature language somewhere new. The familiar “face” remains, but the transparent sapphire “eyes” introduce a more ethereal, almost illusory quality to the display. It is still playful and unmistakably his, but expressed in a way that feels especially apt for a watch built on disappearance, reduction and lightness.

Limited to 12 pieces, ThinKing Mystery suggests that the future of ultra-thin watchmaking may not simply lie in becoming slimmer still, but in making radical thinness feel increasingly complete. ...

Newcomer brand @desder_official Desder announces its debut design, the D001, offering a dynamic streamlined timepiece inspired by the the rich traditions of Italian motoring design. Desder is the brainchild of Mo Coppoletta and master watchmaker Luca Soprana, with a ‘Teardrop’ inspired case housing an in-house calibre, built around a single triple-axis tourbillon and flanked by two cylindrical displays for minutes and hours.

Limited to six pieces, all with small differences to make them unique, the D001 balances a strong sculptural vision with peerless technical proficiency. ...

With @nasa @nasaartemis NASA’s Artemis II now underway, humanity returns to deep space for the first time in over half a century.

For decades, the @omega Omega Speedmaster Professional Moonwatch defined the very idea of a space watch, a singular tool for a singular mission.

But Artemis is not Apollo.

Recent images suggest a more nuanced reality: the continued presence of the Omega Speedmaster X-33 alongside what appears to be a @breitling Breitling Cosmonaute, a pairing that reflects both operational necessity and historical continuity.

If the Moonwatch once symbolised a single answer, Artemis may represent a more different question.

What defines a space watch today? ...

L’Impétrant marks the debut of Annecy-based engineer @stephane.pierre.sp Stéphane Pierre, introducing a watch that places motion at the centre of its identity. Developed with the participation of watchmaking prototypist Julien Tixier, it is conceived around the idea of visible mechanics, where technical expression becomes the visual language of the piece.

Its most distinctive feature is a double retrograde display for the hours and minutes, arranged across two ceramic subdials within a vertically composed architecture. Oversized hands sweep through their full arcs before returning to origin, while a prominent balance wheel at 6 o’clock reinforces the sense of rhythm and animation across the dial. Elsewhere, a red sapphire cone indicates the power reserve on the front, with a secondary display and sweeping seconds revealed on the caseback.

Housed in a 39mm Grade 23 titanium case, L’Impétrant pairs lightweight construction with a strong emphasis on finishing, proportion and depth. It debuts first in a 15-piece series in zirconium and rose gold, before continuing as a 50-piece production run in titanium. ...

After more than a decade spent developing movements for others, Mathieu Cleguer (@cleguer.horology), a 35-year-old movement engineer has stepped out under his own name with the Inspiration One Souscription. It is a watch that is equipped with a self-starting, tangential-impulse double-wheel escapement that is paired with an elaborate motor barrel with a stopwork ratchet.

Measuring 38.5mm wide, the watch has a visually arresting layout both on the front and the back, with a lot to unpack, but the main event is his proprietary Innate Escapement, which can be regarded as a modern interpretation of Breguet’s natural escapement, and a solution to one of its most persistent practical limitations. It took Cleguer five years of reworking before he had an epiphany and decided to abandon the defining characteristic of the natural escapement – its direct impulse transmission – in favour of an indirect, tangential impulse system, conceived to achieve both reliable self-starting and greater security.

The chronometric focus extends throughout the movement. It is equipped with an oversized 2.5Hz balance while the motor barrel, coupled with a Maltese cross stopwork, ensures that energy is delivered within a narrow and stable range where torque is constant.

The dial unfolds across six levels, from the long sweep of the central seconds hand to its rounded, polished steel bridge, descending through the champlevé enamel hour and minute subdial, the barrel bridge and the barrel, and finally to the mainplate beneath. Finishing, lavish as it is, is used as a means of articulating form rather than an end in itself. It is this integration of engineering, design and execution that makes the Inspiration One an outstanding debut in a category of watches that has no shortage of contenders.

@raymondweil Raymond Weil marks its 50th anniversary with a watch that looks inward rather than outward. Named The Fifty, this limited edition of 50 pieces is less about spectacle than it is about watchmaking substance, drawing on the Maison’s independent, family-owned history to deliver a chronograph rooted in restoration and craft.

At its heart is an original Valjoux 23-6 from 1976, Raymond Weil’s founding year, fully restored and hand-decorated for the occasion. The historic hand-wound caliber, with its bi-compax layout and column-wheel construction, is paired here with a 37mm steel case, a white gold bezel and a sapphire caseback that reveals the movement’s black ruthenium treatment, Geneva stripes, blued screws and hand-finished details.

The dial is equally considered. Built in four parts and finished with grained, snailed and tapestry-style surfaces, it brings depth, contrast and a quietly neo-vintage character that feels in step with the brand’s recent design language. More than an anniversary release, The Fifty reads as a tribute to traditional Swiss watchmaking and the values Raymond Weil has carried forward for three generations. ...

@montresbreguet Breguet continues the evolution of its Tradition collection with a set of 2026 releases that subtly shift the line in a more contemporary direction while staying closely tied to the house’s historical identity. At the centre of the update are the Tradition 7037 and 7097, both distinguished by their retrograde small seconds display, alongside the gemset 7038 and the dual-time 7067.

Rather than reworking the collection entirely, Breguet refines the familiar Tradition format through enamel dials, Arabic numerals, new movement finishes and updated straps. The 7037 arrives in white gold or platinum, the 7097 introduces a white Grand Feu enamel dial to its exposed architecture, the 7038 brings jewellery and haute horlogerie together with black aventurine and diamonds, while the 7067 adds a GMT display with a green-gradient Grand Feu enamel dial.

Across the collection, the visual language remains unmistakably Tradition: offset dials, front-facing mechanics and a layout that continues to draw directly from Abraham-Louis Breguet’s historic designs - now reinterpreted for a new generation of collectors. ...
