On September 10, 1993, Panerai revealed its soul to the world, transforming it from a secret instrument of the Italian Navy into a watchmaking icon.

Today, over 30 years after that debut, the Maison celebrates that historic moment with the new PAM05218, a faithful reinterpretation of the ref. 5218-202/A.

A 44 mm black DLC steel case, a black matt dial with trizium color Super-Luminova numerals and hour markers, contrasting hands, and the historic Marina Militare inscription: details that hark back to the origins, but with a modernized construction.

The hand-wound P.6000 caliber beats inside, with a 3-day power reserve. A timepiece that unites past and present, a tribute to the day Panerai became a legend.

Ten years of Pioneer, seven of Flying Hours: in 2025, H. Moser & Cie. unites two icons in a single, spectacular creation. The Pioneer Flying Hours is born, taking the “wandering hours” display to a new level with instantaneous hour changes for more intuitive reading.

Two versions, both 42.8 mm: 5N red gold and black DLC titanium, with an aventurine dial evoking a starry sky, limited to 100 pieces. Steel with a white fumé dial, for a minimalist, industrial aesthetic.

At its heart, the magic of the automatic HMC 240 caliber: three days of power reserve, an oscillating weight in red gold or tungsten, and an escapement and balance spring made in-house. A hypnotic ballet of rotating discs that celebrates Moser’s creative independence, blending haute horlogerie and irreverence.

Frederique Constant renews one of its cornerstones: the Classic Perpetual Calendar Manufacture. Three new versions bring it back into the spotlight: two in steel, with a blue or silvered dial, and an exclusive limited edition of just 37 pieces in 18K yellow gold with a black onyx dial. All share the same 40 mm case and manufacture caliber FC-776, which extends the power reserve to 72 hours and confirms its title as the most accessible Perpetual Calendar on the market.

A watch that perfectly embodies the philosophy of “accessible luxury” that Frederique Constant has championed for over 35 years.

Lee Ufan’s art meets Bvlgari’s avant-garde watchmaking in the new Lee Ufan x Bvlgari Octo Finissimo, a limited edition of just 150 pieces.

The handcrafted 40 mm titanium case, just 5.5 mm thick, is complemented by a sunburst-polished stainless steel bezel and a sandblasted titanium crown with a black ceramic insert. The mirrored dial, traversed by thin black hands, reflects the artist’s renowned contrasts, while the titanium bracelet with an integrated folding clasp completes the ensemble with aesthetic rigor.

The watch is powered by the ultra-thin BVL 138 manufacture movement, self-winding with a micro-rotor and offering a 60-hour power reserve. On the caseback, Lee Ufan’s handwritten signature seals the watch as a true work of art.

For its 20th anniversary, unveils the new LM101 EVO in titanium, with a salmon or peacock green dial, rendered unique by the CVD process.

The colors aren’t the only new additions, however: the black subdials are now framed by finely circled borders, the hours and minutes in the upper right are entrusted to new white gold hands, and the power reserve, located in the lower dial, has been increased from 45 to 60 hours. The escapement wheel has also been redesigned, inspired by the iconic battle-axe motif typical of MB&F watches.

To complete the design, a white or gray rubber strap is available. While not formally a limited edition, the LM101 EVO will be produced in only a few dozen pieces per year, depending on the manufacture’s capacity.
