This year, Seiko celebrated the 60th anniversary of its 1965 Diver's, Japan’s first diver’s watch, with three new models. However, of them, the Seiko Prospex Marinemaster Professional (Ref. SLA081J1), a 6,000-piece limited edition, stole the spotlight. Apart from being a hardcore diver’s watch (water resistant to 600m), it’s also a flagship model—equipped with the brand’s latest mechanical Caliber 8L45 with a 72-hour power reserve. Inspired by shinkai, or ‘the deep sea’, its textured dial with a thick paint reflects the universe underwater. The 45.4mm watch has a one-piece titanium case with a DLC-coated, stainless-steel bezel that is six times harder and more resistant to scratches.

Rolex’s Cosmograph Daytona (Ref. 126518LN) evokes a sporty yet dressy appeal with its turquoise-blue dial with black, snailed counters. Following the design codes of the Daytona, the 40mm watch features an 18-karat, yellow-gold case and a black Cerachrom bezel displaying a tachymetric scale; the hour markers and hands feature the highly legible Chromalight luminescence. Powered by automatic Calibre 4131, which has a deviation rate of -2/+2 sec/day and a 72-hour power reserve, this chronograph comes paired with an Oysterflex bracelet.

Dedicated to the fictional APXGP team from the movie F1 released this year, the new Pilot's Watch Chronograph 41 APXGP (Ref. IW388116) comes in the team’s colours—black and gold, accented with white. There are chronograph counters at 6, 9, and 12 o’clock, and day and date displayed at 3. The tinted, sapphire-crystal caseback also has the team’s logo printed in gold. IWC-manufactured automatic Calibre 69385 with a reliable bidirectional pawl-winding system and a 46-hour power reserve drives the watch. The stainless-steel watch is completed with a water-proof black rubber strap with the EasX-CHANGE® system, which is also laser engraved with the team's logo.

The new Panerai Luminor GMT Ceramica PAM01460 is the brand’s first 40mm Luminor in proprietary ceramic—a high-tech material composed of zirconium oxide-based synthetic ceramic and a patented Ti-Ceramitech™. The monochromatic timepiece features a signature black, sun-brushed sandwich dial displaying luminous Arabic numbers and hour markers filled with white Super-LumiNova X2 for superior legibility. There is a date window at 3, a 12-hour central hand for GMT, and a small seconds counter at 9 o’clock. Visible through the smoked, sapphire-crystal caseback is the automatic Calibre P.900/GMT, offering a three-day power reserve. The watch is water resistant to 300m.

Frederique Constant strengthens its longstanding partnership with British automotive brand Austin-Healey with three Classics Vintage Rally Healey models. Part of it is the Classics Vintage Rally Healey Chronograph Automatic (Ref. FC-397HLBN5B6), a cool chronograph with a blue sunray dial and two subdials in a darker hue at 3 and 9 o’clock. A 42mm stainless steel watch, it’s limited to 1,888 pieces, and powered by the automatic Calibre FC-397. Water resistant to 50m, the watch is paired with a blue calfskin strap with white decorative stitching and a pin buckle.

The UR-101 T-Rex is a reinterpretation of one of the brand’s first timepieces that launched in 1997. The third T-Rex after the UR-105 T-Rex (2016) and the UR-100V T-Rex (2021), its standout feature is an avant-garde 41mm bronze case with scales that evoke the scaly skin of a T-Rex. There are jumping hours and minutes, which can be read via an arced aperture, and like the brand’s other watches, the crown rests at 12 o’clock; the lower lugs are designed to be slightly curved for ergonomics. Powering the watch is the automatic UR-1.01V. The watch is offered with a texturised rubber strap.

Joining the line-up of Zenith’s 160th anniversary celebratory pieces is the Chronomaster Sport 160th Anniversary Edition (Ref. 49.3102.3600/51.M3100). The timepiece showcases the brand’s chronograph legacy with the El Primero 3600 movement with 5Hz frequency and 60 hours of power reserve. The 41mm timepiece debuts in blue ceramic and features the signature 3-6-9 tricolour overlapping counters on the lacquer-finished dial. The faceted markers, hour, minutes, and second hands all feature lume, and turning the watch over reveals a special rotor with a 160th anniversary central hub. The case comes flanked with either a blue ceramic bracelet or a blue rubber strap.

Doxa brings the GMT function to its SUB line after almost two decades of the launch of the SUB 750T GMT. While there are 18 new iterations in strap and bracelet with the GMT function, the one we loved is the brand’s first gradient dial, in the vintage Sharkhunter Edition (Ref. 855.10.101V.10). Encased in 40mm stainless steel, the watch features a unidirectional bezel with diving scales, and its dark gradient dial displays signature markings, a date window at 3, and a red accented GMT hand. All hands, including the GMT hand, are filled with Super-LumiNova for enhanced visibility in low light. A Swiss automatic -movement with a 50-hour power reserve drives the watch, and a beads-of-rice bracelet completes it. 

Paying tribute to its Mark Maker Reinhold Messner’s achievements of climbing the seven highest mountain peaks, Montblanc has unveiled the 1858 Geosphere 0 Oxygen Mount Vinson (Ref. MB134019). This is the first edition of Mount Vinson, the seventh peak that Messner climbed in 1986, and hence, the watch is also a limited edition of 986 pieces. Details include a Mount Vinson landscape-inspired case middle, made of quartz fibres, aluminised basalt fibres, CaCO₃, and light blue resin. Like other 0 Oxygen watches, this timepiece also has a case devoid of oxygen and features a luminous grey outline inspired by the peak. On the blue-green sfumato glacier pattern dial, one can see the rotating Northern and Southern Hemisphere globes, a 24-hour scale, day and night indications, dual-time display, and a date window at 3. Turn the watch over and you’ll see a 3D, coloured laser engraving of the peak on a closed caseback. The automatic MB 29.25 drives the watch and a blue-green interchangeable rubber strap completes it.

Omega’s two new Speedmaster models combine a moonphase with meteorite dials for the first time in the line—there is a black meteorite (Ref. 304.30.43.52.01.001) and the other a galvanic grey one (Ref. 304.30.43.52.06.001). The dial features the criss-cross Widmanstätten pattern of an iron meteorite, encased in a 43mm stainless-steel case. Counters in black and blue track elapsed time, while at 9 o’clock there is the small seconds counter, doubling as the date indicator. A unique moonphase display at 6 o’clock showcases North and South Hemisphere moons, which are made from a shaped, polished, and domed lunar meteorite which fell to earth. The manual-winding and METAS-certified Omega Co-Axial Master Chronometer 9914 powers the watch.

Oris revisits its past with the Ref. 01 733 7772 4034-Set, a nod to the original 1965 dive watch. A 40mm stainless-steel watch, it features a glossy black dial with oversized luminescent numerals at 12, 3, 6 and 9, echoing the early model, while the historic ‘ORIS’ wordmark and ‘WATERPROOF’ beneath it return for the first time in the modern series. There is a black bidirectional rotating bezel and a domed sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating. Powered by the Caliber 733-1 (no date), the watch is water resistant to 100m.

Ref. CBS2219.FC6607 is a smokey purple sunray-brushed iteration, which features contrasting black subdials with a 30 minutes counter at 3 o’clock and a 12-hours counter at 9 o’clock. Encased in a 39mm fine-brushed and polished stainless-steel case, it is powered by in-house automatic Caliber TH20-00, which offers a power reserve of 80 hours. The design is bezel-free and features a signature glass box sapphire crystal. It comes dressed in black perforated, purple-lined calfskin leather strap.

Breitling’s Superocean Heritage B31 Automatic 40 (Ref. AB31101A1C1A1) is dedicated to American surfer Kelly Slater’s retirement from professional surfing. With a water resistance of 200m, the 500-piece limited-edition watch draws inspiration from the Hawaiian surf culture that shaped Slater’s life. The dial showcases a foliage pattern, a nod to the landscapes of his adopted home in Hawaii. Housed in a 40mm stainless-steel case, the exhibition caseback reveals the self-winding Breitling Caliber B31 movement. The watch is offered on either a blue rubber-mesh strap or a classic Milanese stainless-steel bracelet, and comes packaged in a special presentation box adorned with the same Hawaiian floral motif seen on the dial. Inside, collectors will also find a personal note from Kelly Slater.

This watch incorporates the brand’s first mechanical high-beat chronograph movement within a fresh new design that draws deeply from the ‘Tokyo Lion’ motif—the textured dial evokes the waves of a lion’s mane, the sharp diamond-cut indexes resemble claws, and even the rubber strap’s underside features a subtle lion-paw motif. At its heart beats the Calibre 9SC5 ‘Tentagraph’ movement, operating at 36,000 vph (10 beats per second) and offering a 72-hour power reserve, even when the chronograph is engaged. The 43mm case is crafted from Brilliant Hard Titanium, an alloy brighter than traditional titanium and boasting a surface hardness roughly twice that of stainless steel.

Built for deep-sea diving, the new Pelagos Ultra has a water resistance to 1,000m, thanks to a satin-finished 43mm case in grade 2 and grade 5 titanium—the brand calls it the most technical Pelagos ever. The watch features luminescence in blue and green, and its hands are thicker, the markers bigger. Its new patented bracelet adjustment system and compact helium escape valve further add value. The manufacture movement MT5612-U, certified by the Swiss Federal Institute of Metrology (METAS), with a power reserve of approximately 65 hours, powers the watch. A complimentary black rubber strap is provided.

A limited edition of 250 pieces, this Ref. 298600-3028 is a masterpiece in lightness, housed as it is in a 41mm case made entirely of ceramicised titanium, along with the crown, bezel, and movement bridges. The ‘Pitch Black’ eagle’s iris-textured titanium dial features the high-frequency arrow motif in orange, also seen on the seconds hand and the minute markers on the rehaut. Powering the watch is the in-house Calibre 01.14-C, a high-frequency 8Hz chronometer-certified movement offering a 60-hour power reserve. With a 100m water resistance, it comes dressed in (?) and a black rubber strap with a ceramicised-titanium buckle.

The Breguet Type XX Chronographe 2075 introduces two 38.3mm timepieces crafted in the Maison’s new proprietary Breguet gold alloy. The Ref. 2075BH/99/398 features a black anodised Duralumin dial—a nod to Abraham-Louis Breguet’s great-great-grandson Louis Breguet’s aviation legacy as a pioneering name in aircraft design and manufacturing—with a 15-minute counter at 3 o’clock and small seconds at 9 o’clock. It is powered by the manual-winding Calibre 7279, a 5Hz flyback chronograph offering a 60-hour power reserve. The Ref. 2075BH/G9/398 presents a solid silver 925 dial with blue tachymeter scale and accents, a 30-minute counter, and small seconds, driven by the Calibre 7278, also hand-wound, with a 60-hour reserve. Both watches feature applied Arabic numerals and hands in Breguet gold, slim bidirectional bezels, and interchangeable calfskin straps—black for the Duralumin and blue for the silver version.

The RM 30-01 Le Mans Classic is a 150-piece limited-edition timepiece created to celebrate the 2025 edition of the legendary Le Mans Classic race. Housed in a tonneau-shaped case that combines the titanium bezel with a compound Green Quartz TPT® caseband, the watch features vibrant green and orange accents, a checkered-flag motif surrounding the oversized date window, a 24-hour display (with the ‘16’ hour in green referencing the race start time), and a green rubber strap evoking classic racing aesthetics. A push-button at 2 o’clock allows one to select the winding, date setting, and hand setting functions, while a hand at 3 o’clock displays the selected function. The Calibre RMAR2 automatic movement offers a 55-hour power reserve, skeletonised bridges, baseplate in grade 5 titanium, and a patented variable-geometry declutchable rotor to optimise winding and avoid over-winding.

The Ref. L2.839.4.52.2 marks a new chapter in the brand’s high-frequency diving legacy. First introduced in 1968 with the 41mm stainless steel Ultra-Chron Diver with the 5Hz Calibre 431, the line was revived in 2022 and now sees its most modern evolution with a carbon case, a first for Longines. The 43mm cushion-shaped case is lightweight yet ultra-resistant, crafted from carbon fibre and epoxy resin with the pattern on each watch unique due to its high-pressure heat-compression process. It features a fixed titanium bezel with an aluminium insert, and a sandblasted anthracite dial with silver baton hour markers and grey PVD hands filled with blue Super-LumiNova®. Powering it is the automatic Calibre L836.6, a 5Hz high-frequency movement with a 53-hour power reserve and silicon balance spring. The watch also boasts a TIMELAB chronometer certification. Water resistant to 300m, it comes on a black technical fabric strap with a titanium buckle.
