Presenting the new special edition of the Memoris Spirit 40mm by Fratello x Louis Moinet
Fratello × Louis Moinet has presented the Memoris Spirit 40mm Chronograph. For this special Fratello edition, a bewitching navy blue and jet black background has been paired with an arresting shade of fluorescent orange for a futuristic visage that lives up to its current position as the most recent chronograph in the long lineage of Louis Moinet. The Fratello’s favorite RAL2005 shade of orange is used for the flange printing. Orange is obviously a color that’s very close to the Fratello brand, thanks to its Dutch connection, but RAL2005 also fluoresces under UV lighting, adding a whole other character to the watch. This watch is limited to 25 pieces only. |

Audemars Piguet reveals two new Royal Oak Selfwinding Chronographs Gleaming with Frosted Gold
Audemars Piguet has unveiled two new versions of the Royal Oak Selfwinding Chronograph in 41 mm. To coincide with the Royal Oak’s 50th anniversary, each reference benefits from the Manufacture’s latest design evolution debuting across the collection in 2022. Executed in a choice of 18-carat white or yellow gold, the case and bracelet elegantly shimmer with Frosted Gold. Each model is enhanced by a Grande Tapisserie dial matched to the case’s colour and contrasted with black counters. Each timepiece is equipped with the Manufacture’s latest generation flyback chronograph movement, the selfwinding Calibre 4401. The case and bracelet are endowed with larger polished chamfers which engage with light more noticeably, thereby intensifying the sparkling interaction with the adjacent Frosted Gold finish. Audemars Piguet has also made subtle modifications to the sapphire caseback, improving its integration with the case to sit more comfortably on the wrist. |

Moritz Grossmann presents the DATE Turquoise
The glittering sea, a swimming pool and the ice of a glacier: the colour turquoise is pure inspiration and as such gives rise to positive vibes and a feel-good factor. The most eye-catching feature of this watch is its beautiful guilloché dial in turquoise. The special edition, which is limited to a run of 18 pieces, was created in collaboration with exquisite dial manufactory Comblémine by Kari Voutilainen in Switzerland's Val-de-Travers. The brilliantly iridescent guilloché on the main dial and subsidiary seconds draw the eye and will lend any outfit a special touch – exciting, artistic and very, very cool. The new look is completed by the case made from polished stainless steel, which is another completely new style element for the DATE. |
