In offering its wearers lightness and durability, the key to these new references lies in its slimmer and more compact sizes that also uphold the same technical functionalities and stunning details as seen on its larger counterparts.<\/p>\n The Balancier Convexe S\u00b2 in carbon arrives in a 41.5mm case diameter, the dial highlights a double openworked arched bridged between the 3 and 4 o\u2019clock marks, complete with a high-level finish on its titanium components. Beating at its core is the 303-part movement, geared with a 72-hour chronometric power reserve.<\/p>\n As for the Double Balancier Convexe, the reference is elevated with added modern appeal as with its new and smaller 42.5mm case size. Two variations are offered, one imbued with a bold iridescent green finish, while the other takes on a more simple and elegant black color scheme.<\/p>\n Both models are offered in an ultra-limited run of 22 examples for each version.

Moser & Cie.\/Mb&f<\/span><\/p>\n Dubbed by the makers as a unique \u201cPerformance Art piece,\u201d the Streamliner Pandamonium is a stunning one-off novelty that will be auctioned off at Only Watch in November. Presented in H. Moser\u2019s signature cushion-shaped case and integrated steel bracelet, the watch catches the eye with its mesmerizing aquamarine fum\u00e9 dial, which perfectly amalgamates both brands\u2019 core aesthetics. Geared with a minute-repeater complication, the chimes are led by the miniature DJ Panda and its \u201cmixing desk\u201d at the watch’s 10 o\u2019clock direction.<\/p>\n The Streamliner Pandamonium is estimated to sell for 300,000 \u2013 400,000 CHF (approximately $341,463 \u2013 $455,284 USD), more information is available at the piece\u2019s dedicated page on Only Watch\u2019s website.<\/p>\n 1 of 2<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n <\/span>De Bethune<\/span>2 of 2<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n <\/span>De Bethune<\/span><\/p>\n A reimagination and amalgamation of two of the Maison\u2019s most remarkable models, the DB28XP \u201cKind of Blue\u201d features a gorgeous case crafted entirely out of heated and blued titanium while also sporting ultra-slim dimensions. A modern take on guilloch\u00e9, the Microlight dial is dubbed a work of art itself by the watchmaker as it interplays with shadow, and light, thus creating a dynamic yet almost-architectural finish.<\/p>\n Running on the DB2115v12 manual-winding movement, the caliber is geared with De Bethune\u2019s own in-house self-regulating twin barrel that ensures an impressive 6-day power reserve. Only 25 examples are made with the price upon inquiry via the Maison\u2019s official website.<\/p>\n 1 of 3<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n <\/span>Laurent Ferrier<\/span>2 of 3<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n <\/span>Laurent Ferrier<\/span>3 of 3<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n <\/span>Laurent Ferrier<\/span><\/p>\n In homage to the brand\u2019s racing roots, the new \u201cSport Auto 40\u201d timepiece draws its inspiration from the Porsche 935 Turbo number 40 that participated in the 1979 edition of the 24 Hours of Le Mans. From the viridian green gradient, opaline finish, and fuchsia accents to orange-lumed details, the dial itself commemorates the legendary racing car. As for movement, it\u2019s equipped with a resilient LF270.01 caliber, this also marks Laurent Ferrier\u2019s second self-winding with a calendar complication.<\/p>\n Released as a 40-piece limited edition, the reference has a price point of 51,000 CHF (approximately $57,729 USD). Head over to Laurent Ferrier\u2019s official website to inquire about its availability.<\/p>\n 1 of 5<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n <\/span>Ressence<\/span>2 of 5<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n <\/span>Ressence<\/span>3 of 5<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n <\/span>Ressence<\/span>4 of 5<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n <\/span>Ressence<\/span>5 of 5<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n <\/span>Ressence<\/span><\/p>\n Debuting a refreshing and aptly named Eucalyptus Green design, Ressence\u2019s new TYPE 3 EE reference evokes a cool yet soft mood inspired by lush forests and nature. Its ultra-modern dial emphasizes eye-catching colors and fun graphics, complete with an oil-infused upper chamber that cancels out any refraction of light. The oil-filled mechanical timepiece operates on the patented ROC 3, the brand\u2019s own Orbital Convex System that is run by a customized 2824\/2 caliber, which offers up to 36 hours of power reserve.<\/p>\n Priced at 38,200 CHF (approximately $43,155 USD), the Eucalyptus Green TYPE 3 EE is set to release in early October via Ressence’s official retailers.<\/p>\nH.
