Since the debut of the modern Ingenieur in 2023, IWC has been dutifully expanding the collection with fresh materials, complications, and sizes. And at Watches and Wonders 2026, the IWC Ingenieur Perpetual Calendar 41 watch in titanium has now joined the mix. We had a chance to go hands-on with...
They did it again. A new successor to Vacheron Constantin’s flagship explorer’s watch, made in partnership (once again) with photographer and explorer Corey Richards, is here. Originally prototyped and sent up the Northeast Ridge of Everest on Richards’ wrist in 2019, and then revealed as...
You can’t blame a brand for leaning on its bread and butter. That’s just what Czapek seems to have done this year for Watches and Wonders 2026. As has become common with many brands, Czapek has focused its releases on a single collection (yes, they sell other models). While two of the three are...
I believe there isn’t a single Octo Finissimo article on aBlogtoWatch that doesn’t have someone in the comments saying: I tried this on, love the design, and am waiting for a smaller version. To do our part in amplifying that message, we too have been voicing our demands requests to Bulgari,...

Back in 2019, Nodus created the Sector series to prove that a well-designed case could suit a near-endless variety of different timepieces. Over the years, the Sector collection has steadily expanded (both in terms of its variety and capabilities). After receiving a request from a classified...
Achingly cool objects sure manage to bring the worst out of me and evoke a cellular level of envy of the filthy rich who can actually afford, wear, and experience such items. Pointless they may be — often as much as their owners — they nevertheless represent the cutting edge of design and...
The most enthusiast-driven Timex watches are typically positioned as premium offerings, but the American brand also produces a wealth of categorically affordable models that consistently appeal to watch nerds. While models like the Timex Atelier Marine M1a define the luxury-oriented side of the...
