In today's podcast I'd like to consider what actually makes a timeless watch design. Many icons of watch design exist from the Omega Speedmaster to the Rolex Submariner yet there doesn't seem to be any real formula to creating one. Is it simple
Breitling has appeared a troubled brand over the last few decades from financial instability in the 1970s to increasingly misguided designs for ever higher prices in the mid-2000s. However, the last decade has seen the arrival of in-house movem
In our fourth and final episode about Watches & Wonders 2021, I’d like to present the finest high-horology pieces this year from Vacheron Constantin to Patek Philippe and even Jaeger-LeCoultre with their latest million-franc Reverso. Watch thi

In this second episode of Watches & Wonders 2021, I would like to take a look at the stunning, high-horology dress watches which have been released by Vacheron Constantin, Piaget, Cartier and Chopard. These take the form of new versions of exis
In today's first installment about Watches & Wonders 2021 - the largest watch show ever - I would like to talk about some of the most discussed, debated and important new releases from Rolex, Tudor, Patek Philippe and Cartier. #watches&wonder
In today's podcast (audio only, I'm afraid - I don't fancy any libel threats given the subject) I would like to discuss what a watch review can never tell you. No, I don't mean that a biased review will mislead you - that's just a fact of the t
The 2021 Omega Seamaster 300 presents a very new face to a historically-unsuccessful model in Omega's collection. By dropping its ceramic bezel and adopting a more old-fashioned style, this new version gives a different attitude and feel to the
Sandwiched between American heritage and Swiss manufacturing, Hamilton represents a confusing company with a vast number of products. However, I think that there's much more here than first meets the eye as, in reality, Hamilton's contributions
Watch second tracks may seem like minor details of watch design yet, in reality, they represent a crucial part of most timepieces from dress watches to chronographs. In today’s episode, I’d like to take a look at the three main sins committed b
Thus far in 2021 we have already seen novelties such as the new Omega Speedmaster Professional, Grand Seiko SLGH005 and Zenith Chronomaster Sport El Primero 3600 'Daytona' but, in this podcast, I would like to present some of the watches we sho
Amongst the watches made by Patek Philippe - perhaps the most luxurious of watch brands - surely no model can be truly forgotten? However, released before the 1997 Aquanaut, the Patek Philippe Neptune certainly seems to fit the bill. In today's
In this video, I would like to explore why Patek Philippe’s choice to discontinue the iconic and extremely profitable Nautilus ref. 5711 is a wise and sensible choice. I would also like to explore the history of this luxury, stainless steel spo
The last decade has brought a truly immense number of vintage-inspired watches from the Tudor Black Bay to the brand-new Omega Seamaster Professional. It has been assumed by many that this was merely a passing phase yet, in this podcast, I woul
With the launch of the 2021 Omega Speedmaster Professional, a 25-year-old icon of the watch world has been revived and updated for a new generation. However, not everything we have been told about the iconic Moonwatch seems to be true whilst so
Rick Marei is a veritable legend of dive watches. Entering the watch industry in the late-'90s, Rick was the man behind the resurrection of Doxa and the one to drive them from strength to strength over the subsequent years. After bringing back
Panerai is a brand seemingly in decline. Since their period of serious popularity in the early-2000s, this Italian brand has suffered an ever-dwindling public reception. In today's episode of WATCH CHRONICLER UNSCRIPTED, I would like to take a
The new Oris cal. 400 is an in-house movement which promises to push this historic, independent watch brand into the future. Offering a 5-day power reserve, high anti-magnetism and a 10-year warranty, this isn't a luxury in-house movement but o
In today's episode, I would like to point the microphone at myself and tell you how I collect watches, how I got into watches and where I want to take my collection in future. I will also announce a new set of goals which I will be able to show
On the wrists of Jacques Cousteau and Jacques Mayol, the Aquastar Deepstar became a legend of diving in the 1960s. With its diving chronograph and an innovative bezel for timing the waiting time between dives, it showed itself to be an invaluab
In today's (purely audio) episode of the Watch Chronicler Unscripted Podcast, let's take a look at the watch industry in relation to the modern car industry. Are watch brands too keen to chase profits? Does this make smaller brands a better cho
The Grand Prix d'Horlogerie de Geneve is a highlight in the watchmaking calendar as the annual award ceremony for watches. However, over the past few years, it has often been seen as irrelevant and biased but with a larger panel of judges and a
The last few weeks have been pretty hectic for the watch world from Rolex's releases last week to the various new watches at Geneva Watch Days. However, there have also been releases from big names such as Omega and A. Lange & Söhne as well as
Rolex's 2020 releases have been dominated by the launch of a new Submariner: the definitive luxury dive watch. However, this latest launch shows a very different attitude from Rolex. For this release, rather than dictating where the market will
Watches with integrated bracelets such as the Patek Philippe Nautilus, Audemars Piguet Royal Oak and Vacheron Constantin Overseas have become some of the hottest on the market in recent years. In fact, they have been so popular that they have b
