Ahead of their time
Music lover, dandy, extreme adventurer, for every man his timepiece designed to keep him ticking ... Focus on the microcosm of watch making.
Frédérique Constant in d minor...
To celebrate the birth of Chopin, now 200 years ago, Frédérique Constant has designed a new edition, limited to 1810 copies of course, the FC 303. We like its lean elegance and the classical touch with the discrete black index referring to the keys of a piano and the sobriety of the steel or gold-plated case. A beautiful symphony in black and white for the watch aficionado and eternal music lover.
Price: €1100 in yellow gold-plated
Dandy, eternal masculin
With its unique dial with the satin sunray pattern, tone in tone with the bayadères guillochés stripes: no doubt this is one of the great classics of the dandy model signedChaumet. The extra? An ultra-flat clock case available in three different gold editions: the pink gold and grey gold with a black or grey alligator wristband and anthracite dial, the yellow gold with brown alligator wristband and chocolate dial. All with manual winding mechanism. Simply superb!

Never too careful!
For those who are a little reticent to the pompous (at least on paper) concept of the Master Compressor Extreme LAB 2 Tribute to Geophysic from Jaeger-LeCoultre, you should know that the watch manufacturer imposed this watch a full-scale test: namely an expedition in the Himalayas to conquer the summit, called for the occasion "Mount Antoine LeCoultre"! Even more attractive, with the new mechanical chronograph movement precision and reliability are guaranteed even in the most extreme environment. With its ergonomic case this creation of Jaeger-LeCoultre will soon find its place under other skies, even in milder circumstances ...

Parmigiani passes beyond the fifth...
In the world of extremes it’s of course in speed where the Bugatti Super Sportwatch developed by Parmigiana excels. Tested at a top speed of 431 km/h on the wrist of Bugatti test pilot, Pierre - Henri Raphanel: we expected no less from this timepiece which had already revolutionised the small world of watch making in 2004, with its ancestor, the type 370 with a transverse axis. The new Bugatti is an evolution of this model and yet today, Parmigiani goes a little further, reversing all mechanical components of the new calibre Bugatti PF 372 putting them on a vertical axis, whilst preserving the lateral time reading, indispensable when driving. A world premiere in watch manufacturing with a 90 ° twist. In short, a small wonder of design and technology.
