MB&F introduced the LM1 EVO, an evolution of the original Legacy Machine No. 1 that the brand originally introduced in 2011. It has been re-engineered to fit in a smaller 42mm case, while still including the signature aspects of the original, with two completely independent time displays and an oversized 14mm flying balance wheel suspended above the movement. It also features a 60-hour power reserve and an inclined power reserve display. The case has 80 meters of water resistance and MB&F’s FlexRing shock absorber to accommodate the wearer’s active lifestyle. There are two versions: a 5N+ rose gold edition with a blue-green dial plate, limited to 33 pieces and priced at $137,000; and an unlimited edition with a titanium case and a rhodium-plated dial plate, priced at $109,000.

Chopard launched the L.U.C. Full Strike ‘Dia de Los Muertos’ Edition 13, continuing the brand’s traditional tribute to Mexico’s Day of the Dead. The 42.5mm case is in 18K rose gold, surrounding a vibrant dial that depicts a calavera (skull), using intricate artistic techniques including both eggshell and straw marquetry and a hand-engraved gold mustache. The watch is powered by the in-house manually-wound L.U.C Calibre 08.01-L, a minute repeater that has its glass and gongs made from a single piece of sapphire crystal, resulting in a clear, resonant chiming sound. It is a one-of-a kind model, with pricing available upon request.

Jaeger-LeCoultre released the latest edition in their Calibre 101 series, the 101 Chain, a high-jewelry piece in the shape of a bangle. It’s made from 18K pink gold, with a diagonal pattern of alternating bands of round, brilliant-cut diamonds and bands of black Hyceram®, a hybrid ceramic and polymer composite. The in-house Calibre 101 is the world’s smallest rectangular manual-winding movement. Pricing is available on request.

Hublot introduced the Classic Fusion Tributo in two versions as a tribute to the watch that launched the brand in 1980. The design echoes the original, with a black dial contrasting with either a yellow gold or white gold case, and a black rubber strap. The new versions are powered by an in-house automatic movement with a 60-hour power reserve, and the movement and its oscillating weight in the form of a letter H is visible through the sapphire caseback. Each version is priced at $30,900.

Urwerk released a new collection: the UR-300 Time Quantum. The new pieces reconfigure Urwerk’s signature wandering hours display using a T-frame mechanism that was inspired by quantum mechanics and results in an almost otherworldly display of time. The architecture consists of two perpendicular hour modules, configured in a T-shaped structure, with three-sided rotating hour prisms on each end, for a total of four prisms. The active hour display travels along a 108-degree minutes scale at the bottom of the dial from 0-60 minutes. At the top of each hour, the entire display changes. The whole frame jumps instantaneously by 72 degrees, with the two crossbars of the T switching positions, pivoting in opposite directions, while the prisms simultaneously rotate to show the next hour. There are two versions: Titan, in Grade 5 titanium, and AlTiN, which has a PE-CVD finish. Each version is limited to 25 pieces and is priced at $202,000.

Czapek released the Antarctique Tourbillon Victory Green in a limited edition of 10 pieces that were inspired by a collector’s bespoke order. The 40.5mm case is made of 18K yellow gold, and the hand-guilloché dial is in a registered 'Singularité' pattern with a forest green hue. It’s powered by the in-house automatic Calibre 9 movement and features a flying tourbillon that’s visible at the six o’clock position on the dial. It’s available on a rubber strap, priced at $83,704; an alligator leather strap, priced at $88,514; or a matching 18K yellow gold integrated bracelet, priced at $117,860. The piece will be first shown to collectors at WatchTime New York, which takes place at Gotham Hall in New York City from October 16-18.

Hermès introduced two new versions of its sports watch, the H08, in new, lighter colors. Each has a braided glass-fibre composite case with a matte, marbled surface that almost looks like natural stone, with sunburst brushed ceramic bezels in either blanc (white) or bleu de Malte (Maltese blue), and a white lacquered dial. The dial’s applied numerals are in the brand’s signature typeface that was created for the H08 line. Both watches are powered by the in-house automatic H1837 movement, which offers a 50-hour power reserve, and they come on rubber straps that match the bezel color. Both are priced at $8,600.

Arnold & Son released two limited editions of the DSTB Stop-Seconds in a choice of 18K 5N red gold or 950 platinum, both in 42mm cases and limited to 18 pieces each. This version of DSTB, or Dial-Side True Beat, adds a stop-seconds function, which stops the seconds hand to allow the wearer to set the time to the precise second. Both versions feature grained dials: the red gold version has a ‘Cliff Grey’ PVD treatment, while the platinum version features a ‘Kingsand’ PVD treatment. The red gold version is priced at $58,700 and the platinum version is priced at $72,500.
