Tudor Black Bay Chrono “Flamingo Blue”
Tudor has launched the Black Bay Chrono “Flamingo Blue” with a brilliant blue domed dial reflective of the water they love, rather than the blush-toned plumage typically referenced in moody depictions of the elegant long-legged waders.
Making a statement with its unconventional shade, much like the Black Bay Chrono Pink released in 2024, the Black Bay Chrono model features contrasting hollowed sub-counters and a high-performance automatic Manufacture Calibre, with column-wheel construction and vertical clutch.
The Black Bay Chrono “Flamingo Blue” has a bold yet refined satin-brushed and polished 41mm case crafted from durable 316L stainless steel. The sleek, fixed bezel in matching stainless steel has a black anodised aluminium insert with a precise tachymetric scale, adding a sporty edge to its sophisticated design.
Dial detail includes distinctive ‘Snowflake’ hands, a signature design element of Tudor divers’ watches since 1969. Coated with Grade A Swiss Super-LumiNova luminescent material, these hands ensure optimal legibility in low-light or underwater environments.
The heart of this timepiece is the Manufacture Chronograph Calibre MT5813, a COSC-certified movement renowned for its precision and offering a 70-hour power reserve. It is equipped with a silicon balance spring. The five-link stainless steel bracelet fastens with a Tudor “T-fit” rapid adjustment clasp. The watch comes with a five-year transferable guarantee without registration or mandatory maintenance checks.
Baume & Mercier Riviera
Baume & Mercier’s latest advertising campaign for the feminine Riviera model elegantly brings the saying “a picture paints a thousand words” to life. This timepiece features a captivating “sun satin” dial, a stainless-steel case, and the signature dodecagonal bezel adorned with four screws.
Designed for versatility, the durable rubber strap includes a hassle-free interchangeability system, enabling effortless style changes without needing tools. Sporty yet sophisticated, the Riviera seamlessly complements the modern woman’s dynamic lifestyle.
Available in hues inspired by the iconic French Riviera, this watch captures the spirit of the Côte d’Azur, known for its stunning Mediterranean vistas, chic coastal towns like Saint-Tropez and Cannes, and its timeless elegance. With every detail, the Riviera reflects the essence of a lifestyle defined by beauty, luxury, and authenticity.
Ulysse Nardin Freak ONE Navy Blue
Ulysse Nardin’s Freak ONE Navy Blue pays homage to the brand’s legacy as a pioneer of marine chronometers and modern watchmaking.
The 44mm titanium case, finished with satin-polished black DLC, features a bezel crafted from Carbonium, a lightweight, durable, and environmentally conscious material introduced in 2019. Water-resistant to 30 metres, the watch embraces avant-garde design by eliminating hands. Instead, it uses the tip of the flying carousel Calibre UN-240 Manufacture movement to display minutes, while a rotating blue disc with an engraved sunray pattern indicates the hours.
Further visual intrigue comes from the oversized silicon oscillator and balance spring, alongside a DiamonSil-coated escapement wheel and anchor for enhanced durability and performance. Powered by the innovative Grinder automatic winding system, the Freak ONE Navy Blue boasts an impressive 90-hour power reserve.
The timepiece is completed with eco-conscious rubber straps produced from 30 per cent recycled production waste, underscoring Ulysse Nardin’s commitment to sustainability.
