H. Moser & Cie. Endeavour Tourbillon Skeleton – clarity by subtraction
H. Moser & Cie. calls the Endeavour Tourbillon Skeleton an exercise in removing to reveal. For once, the phrase fits.

Czapek’s Faubourg de Cracovie Crossroads in Victory Green
Czapek adds a measured splash of color to its steel chronograph with the Faubourg de Cracovie Crossroads in Victory Green, a limited edition of 18 pieces. The dial pairs a guilloché motif with an English green that feels confident rather than loud. It reads as sport with manners.

Alpina Alpiner Extreme Solarmetre – first light for a mountain tool
Alpina, founded in 1883, steps into solar with the Alpiner Extreme Solarmetre. It is the brand’s first solar-powered collection, and it arrives with a calm promise rather than fireworks. Light in, time out. For an outdoor watch, that feels like common sense dressed in steel.

L’Epée 1839 La Regatta – a vertical skiff in Grand Feu
L’Epée 1839 turns La Regatta into a quiet study of motion, reimagined as one-of-one Métiers d’Art pieces that wear Grand Feu enamel like water on a racing hull.
