This is the second Extra Plat watch from Daniel Roth (while under Louis Vuitton’s stewardship). It switches from yellow gold to rose gold, now has a two-tone pinstripes guilloché solid gold dial, and uses an exhibition caseback for the first time. The new Daniel Roth Extra Plat Rose Gold is not a limited edition like its predecessor, but only the first 20 will be numbered.

Dennison, founded in 1874, has carved out a distinct lane in the present market with very affordable stone dial watches (all under US$700). Its present designs come from the mind of legendary watch designer Emmanuel Gueit, best known for the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore and Rolex 1908. Collectability was founded by John Reardon, a globally recognised expert on Patek Philippe and former International Head of Watches at Christie’s.

Few watch brands have such a loyal tribe of cult followers and buyers as Grand Seiko. Sure, many people ride the hype trains of various other brands, but my favourite thing about wearing my Grand Seiko hat walking down the streets of New York City are the many glances and nods of approval I get by those passing by. Through that look of recognition alone, I know I could be fast friends with these people, share a pint, and talk Grand Seiko for hours.

Was the Breguet Classique Souscription 2025 on your horological bingo card for this year? Though it was inevitable that Breguet would want to celebrate its 250th anniversary with a new watch, most would have probably expected a tourbillon, considering its namesake created the renowned complication. Instead, we have the opposite: a clean, one-handed wristwatch inspired by an Abraham-Louis Breguet Souscription pocket watch from the late 1790s.

Among all the Watches and Wonders noise, a rather significant development from the auction world got a bit lost in the news cycle. With things calming down a bit, I want to circle back to an announcement made at the end of last month, as Sotheby’s announced a watch servicing partnership with a new platform called WatchCheck, becoming the first auction house in the world to offer a watch repair service.

Announced in the latter half of last year, Piaget officially (and surprisingly) changed the name of the Black Tie to the Andy Warhol Watch, a moniker that was long used by fans of the model. While the inaugural Andy Warhol Clou de Paris introduced the name change, Piaget expanded the collection at Watches and Wonders 2025, as the complex cushion shape merged with new dials. But before we explore the new watch, it’s important to dive into its backstory first.

The Chanel J12 Bleu Diamond Tourbillon is a limited edition of 55 pieces. Its 50-metre water-resistant blue ceramic case, 38mm in diameter, has a black-coated steel bezel set with 4 carats of baguette-cut sapphires. The manufacture Calibre 5 presents a 42-hour, manually wound, flying tourbillon that is diamond-set. Chanel and dive watches are two things you would be faulted for thinking are completely unrelated. Dive watches and tourbillons, not really a thing either.

Ulysse Nardin presents the lightest dive watch in the world, weighing 52g including the strap. The lightweight case is made of recycled titanium, NyloFoil, and CarbonFoil. Its new 90-hour automatic UN-374 movement is highly openworked and utilises titanium bridges. There are two facets of watchmaking that make a watch more luxurious and expensive. The first, and most obvious, is decoration and finish.
