Bell & Ross watchmakers have been on the vintage kick here and there for a time-kept minute now. Unsurprisingly they have added two new models to their vintage BR line, a line developed in admiration of advances in aviation in the era of the second world war. The BR 126 (shown right) , which is a special edition […]
Shinola, the rare Detroit watchmaker, is founded upon the principle of quality American-made goods. While we’re sure to be hearing more from them on the watchmaking tip — and they have indeed just released nine new timepieces — their new line of individually crafted, high-quality leather-bound sporting goods are especially noteworthy. Get your game on […]
Back in the 17th century, Mary Queen of Scots once had a beautifully crafted skull watch made in her honor. Not long after, her head got chopped clean off. That historical timepiece, with some notes from the Day of the Dead, have directly inspired Fiona Krüger and this Black Skull watch. Each hand-decorated three-layer watch keeps its […]
As a followup to the previous collaborations, namely one with a watch face getting muscle-armed by Popeye, Dr. Romanelli and Bamford Watch Department have joined forces yet again to create a cartoon-inspired timepiece. With this version of the Deepsea model, bad-guy Brutus is clobbering the military grade titanium coated chronograph. This highly limited run of only 20 pieces comes with two-year […]

What makes this newest Panamerican version unique is the beautifully bronzed dial accenting the iconic oversized black clock-face. An aviator’s go-to for years now, the Navitimer is already a long established classic. […]
Watches inspired by heroes in fashion, sports and pop culture are really nothing new at Meister — as we saw with the MSTR x Brandon Jennings Rose Gold Ambassador watch — but this particular collaboration with B:Scott may be worth noting. Both come by way of Cali, and both brands are inspired by Japanese and German aesthetics. If you’re not familiar […]
Inspired by the late great French ace fighter Georges Guynemer, Bell & Ross have applied a sophisticated, vintage aesthetic which pays homage to the watches of the period by giving it a 45mm gunmetal-finished case, tan leather strap and face accented by a red stork — the emblem of Guynemer’s squadron. The first Allied pilot […]
Bell & Ross has dressed up their iconic BR03 line in ceramic casing. The 42mm watch is available in a wide selection of variations in color, wristband material and accents. With standard mechanical movement, satin-brushed steel pin buckle and ceramic-coated plate, this collection of aviation watches starts in the 3,000’s and quickly moves up from […]
