Omega Takes Its Central Tourbillon To New Heights

The central tourbillon has been a hallmark complication of Omega ever since it was introduced in 1994. What makes these watches so exceptional is that the tourbillon can literally take center stage. As Omega opted for a one-minute rotation of the tourbillon cage, it can conveniently double as a seconds indicator as well. Aesthetically, this has resulted in some stunning watches, but Omega is now taking it to new heights with the De Ville Tourbillon Numbered Edition. READ MORE

Throwback Thursday: The Patek Philippe Ref.1463

The Ref.1463 is a charming chronograph that Patek Philippe first introduced in 1940, and of which it made the last models in the late 1960s.

Zenith Travels To The End Of The Color Spectrum With The Defy 21 Ultraviolet

Violet is the highest frequency of color that the human eye can detect before turning into the invisible ultraviolet color.
