A time of watches

The design with its clean lines, perfectly balanced proportions and sheen of the silver dial give this feminine watch a smooth and fluid look. Its modernity is inspired by the functionality and luxury of Art Deco, at the heart of the revival of the Hampton collection.

Hampton for women, steel, 35 mm x 22mm, calfskin leather strap, quartz movement.

Powerful, stylish and sculptural, this is the city chronograph par excellence! With a neo-retro seventies style, it alternates steel surfaces and bevelled edges and dedicates its multiple technical details to keeping pace with time. A “civilized” BR05 for busy businessmen.

Automatic chronograph, 42 mm.

A legend of contemporary watchmaking, the Navitimer is one of the most admired mechanical chronographs in the world. Adopted by pilots over 65 years ago, it makes life easier for modern-day travellers thanks to its easy-to-read dual time zone system. Ornamented the famous circular slide rule, it is powered by a Breitling in-house calibre.

Steel, 46 mm, blue dial, self-winding Breitling 24 calibre.

The very first Chronomat designed for women encapsulates charm, confidence and an active lifestyle. Its sporty-chic spirit with a modern retro touch marries luxury and relaxation. This version set with diamonds gives a glow to the steel and the emblematic Rouleaux bracelet of a timepiece that has remained visionary since the 1980s.

Steel, 32 mm, date aperture, waterproof to 100 m, SuperQuartz movement with 3 to 4 years’ battery life.

For working women, the new Pasha by Cartier is a synthesis of elegance and strength. While its steel design exudes vitality, its signature hallmark also lies in the screw-down crown cap. It is attached to the case by a small chain and can be personalised with an engraving. The steel bracelet and leather strap can be swapped in a heartbeat thanks to the “QuickSwitch” system.

Steel, 35 mm, automatic movement, interchangeable steel bracelet and leather strap.

“The” watch of everyday elegance! The come-back of the Santos goes smart and sporty to flatter the masculine wrist 7 days a week. Subtly reworked, it combines adjusted proportions, a larger dial aperture and a set of two bracelets which are interchangeable without the need for any tools.

Santos for men, steel and yellow gold, automatic movement.

Stylish and iconic in equal measure, this wristwatch is better than a great classic! Its modernity comes from its simplicity and fluid wave-shaped links. The Sport Classic, an Ebel signature model and star accessory of the 1980s, has mastered the art of being both eternal and current.

Stainless steel and 18-carat yellow gold case (29 mm) and bracelet, mother-of-pearl dial, diamond indices, quartz movement.

Following the example of its iconic inspiration first created in 1999, the Highlife offers an aperture onto the mechanism and an integrated bracelet, now fitted with a quick-change system. The large globe on the dial symbolises the ethics of a Swiss firm that advocates high-quality and affordable watchmaking. As a fully-fledged Manufacture, it designs and makes its own movements.

Steel, 41 mm, clear case back, automatic calibre.

This pilot’s watch combines all the functions necessary for flying. Its bi-directional rotating “slide rule” bezel allows the wearer to work out essential conversions and measurements. Even currencies! This high-performance tool has an automatic mainspring with anti-magnetic silicone hairspring.

Steel, 44 mm, automatic.

For the woman who loves beautifully-made vintage objects, the Reverso is a must! Here, its famous reversible case and its Art Deco dial take on the appearance of a piece of jewellery. In the middle of an 18-carat rose gold setting beats a manual-winding mechanical movement.

Rose gold, 35.78 mm x 21 mm, manual winding.

A benchmark in luxury watchmaking, the Master Control collection recaptures the classic codes of Jaeger-LeCoultre and reinterprets the emblematic round shape of its models from the fifties. This revival lays claim to a very contemporary sophistication: 70 hours power reserve, new case with double satin-polished finish, brand new strap in Novonappa calfskin.

Steel, 40 mm, automatic.

Silver “barleycorn” dial, chronograph movement fitted with a column wheel, transparent sapphire crystal back: this best-selling chronograph reflects the excellence and know-how of a traditional watchmaking firm.

Steel, 42 mm, visible automatic movement, 54 hours power reserve.

The engineers at Oris have developed this automatic timepiece so well that it has a 5-day power reserve and a 10-year guarantee! Unfailingly reliable, its 100% in-house movement requires just one service a decade and exceeds the standards for anti-magnetic resistance.

Steel, 43.50 mm, automatic.

Sparkling, dazzling, appealing: a jewellery-piece watch of great distinction! Its 18-carat gold case shows off the curves of absolute femininity accentuated with progressively-cut diamonds. The pure and silver dial radiates a very current glamorous classicism. The suppleness and comfort of the Milanese mesh bracelet is a reminder of the virtuosity of Piaget in weaving strands of gold.

Rose gold, 32 mm, 62 brilliant-cut diamonds, Piaget quartz movement.

Just 4.30 mm thick: this is one of the thinnest automatic watches for men in the world. Its secret lies in a complex architecture merging movement and case. This results in all of the 219 components assembled in the dial. There, the off-centre hours and minutes display sits next to a peripheral oscillating weight in 22-carat blackened gold.

18-carat white gold, 41 mm, Manufacture 910P ultra-thin automatic movement.

The luxury, lightness and glow of High-Tech black ceramic! Reconceived for modern living while at the same time remaining faithful to the Rado spirit, the True will retain its shine over the years. Decorated with diamonds, it is brought to life by a Swiss-quality automatic movement.

High-Tech ceramic, 30 mm, automatic, 38 hours power reserve.

Elegant and high-performance in equal measure, this is the chronograph of speed-lovers. Its bold sporty look is combined with the performance of an automatic movement fitted with a column wheel to facilitate the controls: the Calibre Heuer 02.

Steel, 44 mm, automatic, 80 hours power reserve.

A multifunctional, ergonomic and elegant watch for all occasions. Its discreet refinement is inspired by a model from the sixties, with a dynamic twist and boosted by an exceptional calibre with a silicon hairspring providing “weekend-proof” operational autonomy. The Gentleman confirms Tissot’s attachment to great watchmaking with meticulous attention to detail.
