Some say that clocks are almost art because of their intricateness. But art really finds its place in the clock. This week it happened at Resance. There, the dial became the canvas and movement became an integral part of a true work of art. If we were hoping for something closer to the former, we thought of you too. The latest models from Breguet, Richard Mill and Grasshutte and Armin Strom show complexity. In fact, there are plenty of tourbillons this week. Discover the rest below and enjoy your reading!
Vulcain Skindiver Nautique Gmt
Vulcain enriches the skin diver collection with the introduction of a second time zone indicator. The vintage 38.3mm case maintains water resistance of 200m, at a thickness of about 12.2mm, despite additional hands. The matte black dial matches the two-way black ceramic bezel, and the GMT hand is the only red touch on a black and white watch that is otherwise elegantly elegant. Price: Starting from CHF 1,890.
