The @longines Master Collection enters a more focused chapter with a collection-first monopusher, a newly proportioned moonphase chronograph and fresh three-hand variations.

Both chronographs adopt a new 41mm format. The Chrono Monopusher pairs a pulsometer display with the manual-winding column-wheel calibre L799.5, while the Chrono Moonphase sits between the preceding 40mm and 42mm versions and combines its chronograph with day, month, pointer date, 24-hour and moonphase indications.

The three-hand range spans 30mm, 34mm, 39mm and 41mm, gaining diamond-set frosted blue dials, two-tone mother-of-pearl executions and light blue barleycorn variations.

Longines presents the collection through a new campaign that brings all six of its Ambassadors of Elegance — Kate Winslet, Eddie Peng, Jennifer Lawrence, Henry Cavill, Zhao Liying and Yosh Yu — together for the first time, with the watches serving as a common thread.

From individual seconds to an entire millennium, @urwerkgeneve’s one-off UR-1001 Amadeus approaches time on an almost unimaginable scale.

Conceived as a mechanical “Zeit Device”, the pocket watch combines a flying satellite hours display with retrograde minutes and a second satellite system forming an annual calendar. A hand-painted day/night display and 39-hour power-reserve indicator complete the dial side.

Turn it over and the perspective becomes considerably longer. A five-year “Oil Change” indicator signals when servicing is recommended, while a mechanical odometer records the movement’s running time in five-year increments up to 100 years. Upon completing a century, it advances the linear 1,000-year counter by one 100-year step.

The automatic, 4Hz caliber UR-10.01 is housed in a substantial 106 × 62 × 23mm titanium case. Engraver Florian Güllert devoted nearly three months — approximately 500 hours including the design phase — to the project, first rough-cutting the titanium by laser before completing its elaborate Baroque decoration by hand. Its lavish character inspired the name “Amadeus”, referencing the avant-garde spirit of Mozart. ...

The Speedmaster 38 has always offered a more compact route into @omega’s chronograph family. Now, seven new references bring it visually closer to the Moonwatch with round subdials, pared-back dial text and a broader tachymeter bezel — complete with the familiar Dot Over Ninety.

The collection spans three steel models, two bi-colour executions and two diamond-set versions. Six retain the date-equipped Co-Axial Calibre 3330, while the black dial alone receives the no-date Calibre 3332, giving it the cleanest and most overtly Moonwatch-like layout. All seven measure 38mm by 14.75mm and come on five-link Moonwatch-style bracelets with micro-adjustment.

On 25 August 1991, Michael Schumacher qualified seventh at Spa on his Formula 1 debut for Jordan. Thirty-five years later, we trace his extraordinary career through the watches connected to it. Among the earliest was a strapless @casiowatches_official digital watch mounted to his Benetton steering wheel in 1993, reportedly after Schumacher requested a stopwatch inside the cockpit. His subsequent partnerships with @tagheuer, @omega and @audemarspiguet produced watches that accompanied — and frequently commemorated — his seven World Championships.

Away from those official relationships, Schumacher’s collection included a @rolex “Paul Newman” Daytona ref. 6262, a complete numbered set of @fpjourneofficial’s Ruthenium Collection and unique watches commissioned by Jean Todt to mark his sixth and seventh titles. The story closes with the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Concept Laptimer, developed after Schumacher asked for a mechanical watch capable of timing consecutive laps — transforming the stopwatch idea from his Benetton years into a high-watchmaking complication.

Last week in watches, @blancpain1735 marked the Bathyscaphe’s 70th anniversary with a 300-piece limited edition inspired by a model from 1968, retaining its compact proportions in a 37.4mm steel case.

Elsewhere, @minase_watch_japan introduced the 37mm Mastercraft J3, marking the brand’s first use of a Japanese movement with the automatic Miyota caliber 90S5, while @norqain gave its three-hand Independence Skeleton a Grade 5 titanium case for the first time.

@midowatches refreshed the Ocean Star 200 with a crisp black-and-white execution, and @glashuetteoriginal unveiled two slimmer 41mm Senator Chronographs powered by its automatic flyback caliber 37-24. Completing the week, @czapekgeneve presented the Promenade Transparencies Aqua Blue, revealing its skeletonized caliber SXH7 through a fumé sapphire dial in an edition of just 38 pieces.

Inspiration can come from many quarters, but @moserwatches Moser & Cie are pushing that idea to the limit with the Streamliner Pump, a watch inspired by an iconic Reebok shoe.

In 1991, Boston Celtics point guard Dee Brown took part in the annual NBA Slam Dunk contest. Before taking his shot, he bent down to pump up his sneakers - and the Reebok Pumps on his feet became an instant streetwear icon. The sneakers were defined by their bright orange pump, used to inflate the air-cushioned sole - and it`s this pump that Moser & Cie has translated into a completely new way of winding your watch.

One press of the anodised orange button pushes one hour of power into the 74-hour reserve of the mainspring, a direct, tactile way of interacting with the slim, hand-wound HMC 103 movement. It`s an interaction you can see on the dial with a bright orange power reserve in stark contrast to the otherwise monochrome deep black or crisp white watch.

Measuring 40mm across of forged quartz fibre, light, strong and with a natural moiré texture, the signature pebble-shaped case of the Streamliner has never been sportier. Finished on a matching rubber strap and limited to 250 pieces per colour, the Moser & Cie Streamliner Pump is priced at CHF 31,360 (excluding taxes). Best of all? It comes with a matching limited edition pair of Reebok Pumps.

@grandseikoofficial recently announced a significant refresh of its core Evolution 9 collection, with nine new references that bring improved tapered bracelets, tool-free micro-adjust clasps and, for the Spring Drive models, the U.F.A. caliber 9RB2.

The range comprises four mechanical Hi-Beat models and five Spring Drive models. The mechanical quartet retains the caliber 9SA5 and consists of the White Birch SLGH031, Night Birch SLGH029, Green Birch SLGH033 and Genbi Valley SLGH035. The more substantial change occurs on the Spring Drive side, where the five-day caliber 9RA2 gives way to the three-day U.F.A. caliber 9RB2. These comprise the White Birch SLGB009, Atera Valley SLGB011, Lake Suwa SLGB013, the new 37mm Lake Suwa SLGB015 and the new Moonlit Lake Suwa SLGB007. A couple of dials have been subtly revised from their original versions.

Seven of the nine are now in Ever-Brilliant Steel, Grand Seiko’s highly corrosion-resistant stainless steel alloy, which has a noticeably brighter, whiter appearance than conventional stainless steel. The remaining two, the Night Birch SLGH029 and Moonlit Lake Suwa SLGB007, are made from High-Intensity Titanium, which is harder and more scratch-resistant than conventional titanium and stainless steel, yet capable of taking a high-polish finish. The bracelet is the most important practical improvement. It now tapers from 22mm to 18mm on the 40mm watches, and from 20mm to 16mm on the 37mm Lake Suwa and terminates in a new clasp that offers three positions of tool-free adjustment across a total range of 6mm.

Drake’s new “Ice Gradient” Daytona has brought a rarely seen corner of Rolex collecting into public view. Described by Drake as a one-of-one made by Rolex to celebrate his record-breaking milestones of 2026, the watch is set with diamonds and blue sapphires and bears “Freeze the World” on its caseback. It also arrived with a special presentation box and dedicated book.

To learn more about how these pieces unique are commissioned, we spoke to Rolex and Tudor specialist Ross Povey (@tudorcollector), founder of the 165 Club and co-author of Daytona Perpetual. Povey believes the process for these unique creations resembles that used for Rolex’s better known off-catalogue watches, with retailers applying on behalf of their best clients.

Povey is aware of around half a dozen unique Daytonas, including an entirely diamond-set example similar to Drake’s in design and another from Oman with an emerald bezel and red-enamel Eastern Arabic hour markers. He also explains why the accompanying documentation is so important to establishing the credibility and factory provenance of watches that could otherwise be mistaken for aftermarket creations.

For the 70th anniversary of the Bathyscaphe, first introduced in 1956, @blancpain1735 has returned to a landmark model from 1968 -- and retained its original 37.40mm diameter. The result preserves the compact proportions and everyday character that distinguished the Bathyscaphe as the civilian sibling to the Fifty Fathoms.

Its sunburst meteor-gray dial carries Blancpain’s mid-century logo alongside an arrow-tipped seconds hand, baton-shaped hour and minute hands, and white-gold indexes treated with vintage-colored Super-LumiNova. The steel bezel follows the historical design, with a ceramic insert replacing the original black Hesalite, while a chocolate calfskin strap completes its decidedly civilian appearance.

Inside, the automatic caliber 1150 provides a 100-hour power reserve and uses a silicon hairspring for greater resistance to magnetism. A sapphire caseback reveals its 18K gold oscillating weight, while water resistance is rated to 300 meters. The Blancpain Fifty Fathoms Bathyscaphe 70th Anniversary Limited Edition is limited to 300 individually numbered pieces.

Born on 19 August 1926, Dr George Daniels CBE would have turned 100 today.

Best known for inventing the Co-Axial escapement, Daniels is also credited with establishing the model of the modern independent watchmaker. Working largely alone, he mastered more than 30 specialist crafts and demonstrated that one person could design, make, decorate and assemble a complete watch to the highest standards.

His study of Abraham-Louis Breguet’s natural escapement informed both the independent double-wheel escapement and the Co-Axial, conceived in 1975 and ultimately introduced at industrial scale by Omega in 1999. His example would influence Philippe Dufour, François-Paul Journe, Roger W. Smith and generations of independent watchmakers.
