P’6780 Diver by Porsche Design

Porsche Design team has designed the second diving watch, the P’6780 Diver, after 25 years.

The P’6780 perfectly spotlights the brand’s signature aesthetic with minimalist, industrial design that also encompasses a serious diving tool that can reach depths of up to 1000M/3,280ft. The P’6780 also features a unique case design which allows the watch to be lifted to reset the time. The container can be lifted straight from the bridge, and the blocking of diving ring and removed his crown.

Vue by fuseproject and Issey Miyake

Vue by fuseproject and Issey Miyake

The mindset of VUE, our new watch with Issey Miyake, is to experience the mystery of time hour by hour: VUE is a way to feel time’s appearance and disappearance in our lives. By seeing only the current hour, while the last hour representing the past and the next one representing the future subtly fade in and out, we can live a new view (VUE) of time.

±0 Wrist Watch – Naoto Fukasawa

“The strap of this watch simply threads through the back of the face, and so can easily be changed. Because there are no side pins to secure the watch straps in place, the watch looks like a clean and beautiful single entity. The simple feel of it, like a simple necklace made from a leather cord threaded through a ring, is good.”

Unfortunately, it’s available only in Japan :(

Omega Creates The Central Tourbillon Co-Axial Platinum Watch


This could very well be an attempt on Omega’s behalf to assert its technological strenght. For how else do you explain their comin up with a very expensive limited edition watch collection that has only 18 pieces. We are referring to the Central Tourbillon Co-Axial Platinum watch. This one is clearly a complex modern timepiece which is here to flaunt its every inch.

An insider tells us that Omega really wanted to create a centrally mounted tourbillon. In this case, we can see it place right in the middle of the watch dial. Might we add, this is something that has never been attempted before though there are watches like the new Thomas Prescher Mysterious Automatic Double Axis Tourbillon  who claim to be so but aren’t tecnically in that category yet.
Omega has lent its new watch sapphire dics in place of the watch hands. This adds a real mysterious touch. And keeping to the brand’s reputation, each chronometer is certified for accuracy. The platinum cases are in the De Ville style and come with complementing Alligator straps. It might not be the most attractive watch in the market right not but it surely leaves a strong impression.
