The old money aesthetic has dominated the collective consciousness of the style cognoscenti of late, with influencers, celebrities, and brands alike rather loudly touting the best recipe for ‘quiet luxury’. The trend towards quiet luxury proved a sartorial sigh of relief from the endless logomania that defined the previous decade, however ostentation isn’t limited to our wardrobes; it’s also present on our wrists. While there’s no shame in wearing a watch that appeals to — and is recognised by — […]

Dive In; The 20 Best Dive Watches To Buy In 2026

Tanisha Angel — Tue, 07 Jan 2025 03:37:07 +0000

A functional necessity for few and a covetable commodity for many, the not-so-humble dive watch has enjoyed a long tenure as the most covetable tool watch style. Despite their utilitarian origins, they’re now just as likely to be spotted peeking out from under a shirt cuff as they are strapped around a wetsuit.

When it comes to the best luxury watch brands, there are a few key players that immediately spring to mind — Rolex, Patek Philippe, Cartier, and Audemars Piguet among them. However, the best luxury watch brands go beyond the oft-mentioned names, including heritage stalwarts like A. Lange & Söhne, Blancpain, Breguet, and Vacheron Constantin as well as lesser known gems like Arnold & Son, Greubel Forsey, and Glashütte Original. While you can find excellent—and elegant!—watches at every price point (some […]

Got Time? These Are The 22 Best Luxury Watch Brands For Women

Tanisha Angel — Sun, 05 Jan 2025 07:40:21 +0000

From the outside, the horological world appears to be dominated by watch bros pontificating about Hulks, Pepsi, and something about the submarine from Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea. There’s the argument that watches are to men what luxury handbags are to women; though of course watches are regarded as a more ‘serious’ collector’s item. However, the Rolex, Patek Philippe, and Audemars Piguet wristwatches on the wrists of horological enthusiasts and guys trying to signify their status wouldn’t be where […]

The Minimalist Breguet Classique 7637 Lets The Minutes Do The Talking

John Deckard — Tue, 29 Aug 2023 06:14:59 +0000

Born out of necessity, the first minute repeater was invented prior to the advent of electricity — and SuperLumiNova. During the 17th century, it was difficult to tell the time after dark, with watchmakers vying for increasingly ingenious solutions. The earliest minute repeater was invented around 1680, setting the groundwork for further innovation. In 1783, clockmaker Abraham-Louis Breguet (yes, that Breguet) created the first repeating watches striking a spring blade rather than the bell-type gong typically used at the time. […]

Classique Never Dies; Breguet Reinvents The Quantième Perpétuel 7327

Theo Rosen — Mon, 24 Apr 2023 03:58:39 +0000

Searching for catharsis in the classics, heritage Swiss watch manufacturer Breguet has simplified its quantième perpétuel calendar. The new Classique Quantième Perpétuel 7327 succeeds the ref. 5327, a timepiece that has been in the Breguet lineup since 2004. Sublimating the previous-generation quantième perpétuel calendar into a more streamlined timepiece, the Breguet Classique Quantième Perpétuel 7327 retains the classic (or shall we say classique?) charm of its predecessor while making for a largely more decipherable watch.
