Zenith Defy Skyline Tourbillon Skeleton
Zenith continues to push its contemporary design language into haute horlogerie territory. The Defy Skyline Tourbillon Skeleton is a bold expression of that ambition, combining a sharply faceted case with a fully openworked dial that exposes the El Primero 3630 SK calibre.
The flying tourbillon sits proudly at six o’clock, while the star-shaped bridges create depth and structure without sacrificing legibility. Executed in rose gold and produced in limited numbers, it feels like a natural evolution of the Defy line — modern, technical and unapologetically Zenith.
Estimated price: CHF 91,900 / EUR 102,800 / USD 103,700
Tiffany Timer
With the Tiffany Timer, Tiffany & Co. blends New York elegance with Swiss chronograph heritage. Produced in an ultra-limited run of just 60 pieces, the platinum case frames a striking Tiffany blue dial powered by a customised Zenith El Primero movement.
Subtle detailing, including the Bird on a Rock motif, reinforces the maison’s jewellery roots, while the high-frequency chronograph movement ensures serious watchmaking credentials. It’s exclusivity at its most refined.
Estimated price: GBP 49,100 / EUR 62,000 / USD 66,000
Hublot Tourbillon Carbon SR_A by Samuel Ross
Hublot’s collaboration with Samuel Ross enters a more mature phase with the Big Bang Unico SR_A. Crafted in black ceramic, the watch embraces industrial minimalism while retaining the muscular presence that defines the Big Bang family.
Inside beats the in-house Unico chronograph movement with a 72-hour power reserve, visible through the skeletonised dial. The result is a watch that feels architectural, wearable and unmistakably modern.
Estimated price: CHF 130,000 / EUR 154,000 / USD 157,000
Louis Vuitton Escale Worldtime
Louis Vuitton’s travel heritage takes centre stage with the Escale Worldtime. Featuring a hand-painted dial and a refined in-house movement, this piece elevates the worldtime complication into the realm of haute horlogerie.
Every detail reflects craftsmanship — from the colourful city ring to the finely finished movement – making it as much an artistic object as a functional travel companion.
Estimated price: ~ EUR 95,000
Louis Vuitton Escale Twin Zone
Designed for frequent travellers, the Escale Twin Zone offers an intuitive approach to dual-time functionality. A clear day-night indicator and independent local time adjustment make it practical, while the Escale case and refined finishing keep it firmly in luxury territory.
It’s a quieter statement than the Worldtime, but arguably the more versatile everyday watch.
Estimated price: EUR 58,000 (rose gold) / EUR 230,000 (platinum, gem-set)
Louis Vuitton Tambour Convergence Guilloché
The Tambour Convergence Guilloché is a reminder that Louis Vuitton is increasingly confident in classic watchmaking codes. The beautifully hand-guilloché dial takes centre stage, paired with a refined automatic movement and elegant proportions.
This is LV at its most restrained – a dress watch focused on texture, craftsmanship and timeless appeal.
Estimated price: EUR 59,500 / USD 58,500 / GBP 51,500
Daniel Roth Extra Plat Rose Gold Skeleton
Daniel Roth’s revival continues to impress, and the Extra Plat Rose Gold Skeleton may be its most poetic expression yet. Housed in the iconic double-ellipse case, the ultra-thin, fully skeletonised movement reveals exceptional finishing and balance.
It’s a watch for purists – understated, architectural and deeply rooted in independent watchmaking values.
Estimated price: ~CHF 85,000 / ~$106,000
