For its latest collaboration with @naoya_hida_co.official, @thearmourynyc moves away from formal symmetry in favour of something more expressive. The Floating Feathers takes its inspiration from the beauty of birds, translating that idea into a hand-engraved Argentium silver dial where three feather motifs drift across the surface, each brought to life with remarkable detail by master engraver Keisuke Kano.
That sense of organic movement is set against more sharply defined details: 18k yellow gold hands, a blued central seconds hand with a caviar spoon counterweight, and gold accents that frame the display. Housed in a 36mm 904L steel case based on Naoya Hida’s Type 4, the watch brings together lyre lugs, a 1960s-inspired profile and a restrained, elegant presence, finished with a charcoal grey calf strap by Jean Rousseau.
Inside is the hand-wound Caliber 3020CS, a reworked time-only movement with central seconds based on the ETA 7750, beating at 28,800 vibrations per hour and offering approximately 45 hours of power reserve.
With the Extra Plat Platinum, @danielrothofficial gives one of its most discreet watchmaking statements a denser, more precious presence. The familiar double-ellipse case is now rendered in platinum, a material that adds both physical weight and a stronger sense of rarity, while keeping the watch firmly within the restrained language of the Extra Plat collection.
Beneath the exterior, the Calibre DR002 becomes the real point of focus, bringing together slim architecture, chronometric intent and extensive hand-finishing. Developed by master watchmakers Enrico Barbasini and Michel Navas with a focus on proportional balance, slimness, chronometric precision and power reserve, the movement beats at 4 Hz and is refined with a variable-inertia balance wheel. Its finishing, requiring more than 70 hand-executed operations, reveals the depth of traditional savoir-faire through details such as rounded bercé internal angles visible through the open caseback.
The double-ellipse platinum case is paired with a solid gold dial base, hand-executed pinstripe guilloché, a gold minute disc with black typography, and a light-tan leather strap. Altogether, the Extra Plat Platinum stands as a clear expression of Daniel Roth’s guiding principle: “La Montre Objet d’Art.”
@alangesoehne brings the Lange 1 Tourbillon Perpetual Calendar into the Lumen series, giving the most complicated Lange 1 a luminous twist. Limited to 50 pieces and housed in a 41.9mm by 13mm platinum case, the new “Lumen” takes an already thoroughly engineered watch and shrouds it in a dark, smouldering dial — restrained and composed in daylight, before erupting into a vivid glow once the light drops.
Inside is the new self-winding calibre L225.1, which brings a reworked going train, a luminous moon phase with an integrated day-night indicator, improved visibility of the tourbillon through the caseback and more striking decoration. The openworked steel cocks are black-polished and hand-engraved with stars, adding a celestial flourish to a movement that remains rigorously engineered in typical Lange fashion.

@girardperregaux gives the Laureato Chronograph 42 mm a warmer, more unexpected expression with a two-tone construction in 904L steel and rose gold. Revisiting a theme closely associated with the 1970s, the new interpretation contrasts the Laureato’s tonneau-shaped steel case with rose gold accents across the octagonal bezel, crown and chronograph pushers, bringing a more nuanced play of sportiness and refinement to the collection.
The brown Clou de Paris dial complements the warmth of the rose gold, while the matching brown rubber strap — also adorned with a Clou de Paris hobnail pattern — gives the watch a more contemporary, ergonomic feel on the wrist. Measuring 42 mm in diameter and 12.16 mm thick, the Laureato Chronograph 42 mm is designed with everyday comfort in mind, while retaining the architectural language that has defined the Laureato since its debut in 1975.
Inside is the self-winding Manufacture GP03300 chronograph calibre, offering hours, minutes, small seconds, date and chronograph functions, with a minimum 46-hour power reserve. Visible through the sapphire crystal caseback, the movement is finished with details including circular graining, Côtes de Genève, bevelling, mirror polishing, satin brushing, engraving, sunburst finishing and snailing.
@wei_koh_revolution sits down with Benjamin Arabov, CEO of @jacobandco, to explore The Godfather II — the latest evolution of the maison’s cinematic musical watchmaking universe.
Housed in a newly designed rectangular rose gold case with Art Deco inflections, the watch builds on Jacob & Co.’s original Opera Godfather with a more compact and wearable form.
At its heart is the new JCAM62 calibre, featuring an integrated music box system that allows the wearer to choose between two melodies from the film’s legendary score: “The Godfather’s Waltz” and “The Godfather Love Theme”. Activated via a pusher, each melody plays for approximately 15 to 20 seconds, accompanied by a one-minute flying tourbillon and dual power reserve indicators.
The dial is rich with references to the saga, from the black lacquer portrait of Don Corleone to puppet-string appliques, engraved rose motifs and details inspired by gun-barrel spirals and bullet holes.
Limited to 74 pieces in tribute to the film’s 1974 release, The Godfather II brings together music, cinema and high watchmaking in unmistakable Jacob & Co. fashion.

There is no shortage of high-quality time-only watches in the present market, many of which seize every opportunity to dazzle the eye. But there is something to be said about those that do not arise from a desire to impress, but instead from the simple pursuit of excellence and mastery of the work itself. Such is the case with the latest release from Canadian watchmaker @bradleytaylor.ca Bradley Taylor, the Ardea.
The watch is limited to 50 pieces in total, offered in either steel or platinum and measures 37.8mm x 10.9mm. It is stunning both inside and out, pairing a handmade silver dial with a finely decorated movement featuring a 60-second retrograde seconds display, developed in-house over the course of four years.
The multi-part dial features an engine-turned border and seconds sector, while the silvery white finish is achieved in an equally traditional manner through depletion gilding. The Breguet numerals, on the other hand, are in solid platinum and finished with a rounded bombé polish. The Calibre 475RS is based on the architecture of the famed Omega 30T2, though virtually every part was manufactured from scratch by Taylor himself in his North Vancouver workshop, including the mainplate, bridges, train wheels, and free-sprung balance. All parts are finished to a standard that hardly needs pointing out.

@tagheuer expands the Formula 1 38mm Solargraph collection with five new pastel-coloured models, bringing a softer, more playful expression to one of the brand’s most recognisable sports watch lines. The collection includes three TH-Polylight models in pastel blue, beige and pastel pink, each fitted with a matching rubber strap, colour-matched bidirectional bezel, opalin dial, date window at 3 o’clock and 100 metres of water resistance.
Two additional versions offer a more refined take on the pastel theme, pairing sandblasted steel cases and three-row steel bracelets with diamond-set indexes. These arrive in pastel green and lavender-blue, the latter combining a pastel blue dial with a pastel pink flange and central seconds hand.
All five models are powered by the Calibre TH50-00 Solargraph movement, which charges through natural or artificial light. Two minutes of direct sunlight is enough to power the watch for a full day, while a full charge provides up to 10 months of autonomy in total darkness.

@constant.kw speaks to @nicolas_dcdert, founder of @beaubleu_paris, about La Pièce, a new collection that reimagines the watch dial through the lens of coin-making. Created in partnership with Monnaie de Paris, one of the oldest mints in the world, La Pièce brings centuries-old striking techniques into contemporary horology.
Rather than layering elements onto the dial, its details are pressed and sculpted directly from the metal itself. The result is something fundamentally different: a dial that is not assembled, but forged.
La Pièce N°1 is conceived as an expression of passing time. Non-concentric circles ripple across the dial surface, evoking the movement of light across the day, from sunrise to sunset. A powdered relief finish gives the metal a tactile, almost paper-like quality, while the printed hour markers catch the light with a subtle shimmer.
Offered in six colourways — Graphite, Olive Green, Moka, Champagne, Empire Blue and Burgundy — each version shares the same struck-metal construction while taking on its own distinct character. Against the dark registers, Beaubleu’s signature flying seconds hand glides with quiet elegance.
The 2026 Met Gala red carpet was not short on statement dressing, and that extended to the watches on the wrist.
Rami Malek leaned into @cartier`s most surreal silhouette with a platinum Crash, while Paul Anthony Kelly paired his look with the architectural refinement of a @vacheronconstantin Overseas Tourbillon. Serena Williams brought the @audemarspiguet Royal Oak Perpetual Calendar into the evening, and Luke Evans turned to @Hublot with a diamond-set Big Bang Unico High Jewelry 44mm.
Elsewhere, Joe Alwyn completed his Valentino look with a Hublot on the wrist, while Al Sharpton opted for a gold-dial @rolex Day-Date.
Dwayne Johnson went full maximalism with the @jacobandco
Billionaire III, while Tyriq Withers and Finn Wolfhard both opted for the @jaegerlecoultre Reverso Tribute Monoface Small Seconds "Or Deco Cocktail" in white gold - a fittingly Art Deco note for fashion`s biggest night.
Swipe through for some of the standout watches spotted at the Met Gala 2026.
At the 2026 Met Gala, @omega built its presence around a conversation between past and present — placing 1982 Constellation “Manhattan” watches alongside the new Constellation Observatory models.
It was a fitting move for an evening themed around “Fashion is Art”, where archives are no longer just historical references, but active parts of the story. In fashion, vintage has long carried cultural weight on the Met steps. Omega applied the same logic to watchmaking, treating the red carpet less like a shop window and more like a curated gallery.
Nicole Kidman wore a diamond-set 1982 Constellation “Manhattan” in white and yellow gold, while Colman Domingo opted for the Manhattan Grand in steel and yellow gold with a black dial. Mondo Duplantis continued the vintage thread with a gold-toned 1982 “Manhattan”, as Desiré Inglander brought the collection closer to the present with a contemporary steel Constellation featuring a mother-of-pearl dial, diamond bezel and Omega’s signature claws.
The new Constellation Observatory models then completed the arc. Tom Francis wore the Canopus Gold version, Dónal Finn chose the steel model with a deep green dial, and Connor Storrie went for Moonshine Gold on bracelet. Together, the watches traced 44 years of evolution — from the integrated-bracelet “Manhattan” of 1982 to Omega’s latest Observatory expression in 2026.

Music remains at the heart of @mbandf’s M.A.D.Editions universe with the new M.A.D.2 Live, an event-exclusive edition that continues the collection’s tribute to vinyl records, DJ turntables and long nights behind the decks.
Exclusively available through M.A.D.Editions events throughout 2026, the M.A.D.2 Live begins its world tour in San Francisco this May before travelling across 13 cities over the course of the year. For each stop, only a limited number of pieces will be made available via mini-raffle, with visitors invited to scan a QR code at the booth to enter.
Visually, the M.A.D.2 Live stands apart with a silver dial plate, electric blue winding rotor and matching hour and minute discs, paired with a crisp white rubber strap. Each clasp is engraved with the city code of its corresponding event, giving every piece a subtle link to its place on the tour.
The design itself continues the M.A.D.2’s playful tribute to music culture. Its raised central subdials evoke the turntables of a DJ mixing console, while the central dial recalls the grooves of a vinyl record. Around it sits a stroboscopic platter inspired by the Technics SL-1200, which doubles as the automatic winding rotor and is visible from both the front and the back. Beneath the playful surface is a more surprising bit of watchmaking: a bi-directional jumping hour display with trailing minutes.
Housed in a 42mm stainless steel case, the M.A.D.2 Live is powered by a Swiss-made La Joux-Perret G101 base calibre fitted with an MB&F-developed jumping hour and trailing minutes module, with a 64-hour power reserve.
For the 2026 season, @tudorwatch returns to the track with the new Black Bay Chrono “Carbon 26”, a lightweight chronograph that continues the brand’s long-standing connection to motorsport.
Following last year’s “Carbon 25”, this new edition takes its cues from the 2026 Visa Cash App Racing Bulls Formula One car, the VCARB 03. Its 42mm case, fixed tachymeter bezel and even the end-links are rendered in carbon fibre, underscoring the watch’s racing-minded focus on weight reduction, while yellow accents on the dial echo details from the team’s latest livery.
The domed racing white dial is paired with carbon fibre sub-counters and a date display at six o’clock, while Tudor’s signature snowflake hands retain the Black Bay line’s familiar identity. Inside is the Manufacture Chronograph Calibre MT5813, a COSC-certified automatic movement with a column wheel, vertical clutch, silicon balance spring and 70-hour power reserve.
Limited to 2,026 individually numbered pieces, the Black Bay Chrono “Carbon 26” carries Tudor’s racing story into a new season, with Liam Lawson and Arvid Lindblad wearing the watch as the brand continues its journey in motorsport.
