The must-have Macro Loupe for all watch lovers

Iconic watch art prints. Made in Switzerland, lifetime guarantee

Already the owner of several Rolexes, I started looking for a model (Rolex) that met the following specifications: pro + discreet + original. It was natural that I came across the 226570 black dial. Its brushed steel bezel makes it much more discreet than models with a ceramic bezel. The same goes for the fully brushed bracelet (unlike my GMT whose central link is polished). The originality lies in the orange GMT hand with the orange reminder of the "Explorer II" on the dial. I chose the black dial which I find much more discreet and elegant than the white one. It is one of the first Rolex models with anti-reflective treatment on the inner side of the sapphire and it makes a huge difference! Rolex was smart enough not to put this treatment on the outer side because this type of treatment is fragile and does not resist impacts/scratches over time. Its thin and elegant design despite a diameter of 42mm makes it completely compatible with a small wrist (17cm for me)

Explorer II black dial ref 226570

For me it is really THE military watch (type 2nd World War) par excellence. Great simplicity in design and therefore very good readability. Too bad that the water resistance is given for 5 bars only. The lugs are a little long for my taste (significant gap between the bracelet and the case). I appreciate the 3 days of power reserve. A watch that I wear during my travels or trips to areas where it is better not to have a watch that is too "flashy".

THE military watch

After watching a very comprehensive report on the spring drive movement that definitely convinced me that this movement is indeed a mechanical movement above all, I started to analyze the different models and see which one could suit me best. At the same time I was looking for a green watch. By cross-referencing the 2 criteria (spring drive + green dial) I arrived at this SBGE257 model. In the process I went to an AD Grand Seiko (Bijouterie Médard in Versailles) where I had the chance to try it. After 2 days of thinking about it I went back to buy it. For 8 months it is the watch that I wear the most, it is superb from all angles. The dial is matte most of the time and becomes sunray in strong light. The precision of the springdrive is obviously unbeatable (I noticed a drift of 1 to 2s per month). The zaratsu polishing of the hands and indexes is incredible. This is one of the watches that raises the most questions when I wear it, especially with its second hand with a perfectly fluid movement that slides endlessly. As you will have understood, I highly recommend this model. With my Rolex Explorer II, it has become my favorite daily. The only downside: the screws on the bracelet links are really very small and difficult to handle (the bracelet should be adjusted by your watchmaker).

SBGE257: superb

Military-inspired watch, but only inspired because unlike my 38mm khaki (see my other reviews), this one has some flaws that make it unsuitable for all-terrain use, notably the mirror-polished bezel and the combination of a glossy dial and the lack of anti-reflective coating, which means it constantly reflects light, which is quite annoying (especially when taking photos! It's a real pain).

military-inspired watch

The main criterion that led to my purchase is this incredible "linen canvas" dial but it is not the only asset of this watch. It is very thin and therefore very pleasant to wear. The day can be displayed in English or in kanji. The applique logos (Seiko & Lord matic) bring relief, as well as the indexes. There is great Seiko in this Seiko. A great treat for not much money (300 euros on Chrono 24).

superb dial, very thin case, for a very sexy price

This is the BR V2 92 steel heritage model with the tropical rubber strap. A military-style watch, very readable. The cream color of the hands and indexes gives a nice vintage look. I love the delta wing-shaped second hand base (looks like the wing of the Mirage 2000 with its single engine). The window is very discreet thanks to its black background and its small size. The watch is very flat and its rubber strap is very comfortable to wear.

a good military style watch

Edox brand, founded in 1884 by Christian Ruefli-Flury in Bienne, Switzerland, is a luxury watch brand renowned for its innovation and expertise. The name "Edox" comes from ancient Greek, meaning "measurement of time", reflecting the brand's mission.
<h2 dir="ltr">Origins and Foundation</h2>
The story of Edox begins when Christian Ruefli-Flury, a talented watchmaker, gave his wife a watch of his own making for her birthday. Impressed by the quality of the work, she encouraged him to start his own business. So in 1884 he founded Edox in Bienne, initially specializing in ladies' pocket watches.
<h2 dir="ltr">Expansion et Innovations</h2>
After the death of Ruefli-Flury in 1921, Robert Kaufmann-Hug took over the management of the company and oriented production towards wristwatches, anticipating the transition of the watch industry. Under his leadership, Edox experienced significant growth, employing more than 500 watchmakers by 1955 and becoming one of Switzerland's leading watch companies.
Edox stands out for its technical innovations, particularly in the field of waterproofing. In 1961, the brand launched the Edox Delphin, featuring a double bottom, special seals and a double-seal crown system, setting new standards in water and shock resistance. This patented technology is still used by several major Swiss watch brands.
In 1965, Edox presented the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/edox/hydro-sub">Edox Hydro-Sub</a>, a revolutionary diving watch resistant to a depth of 50 ATM, thanks to an innovative crown system with tension ring, offering increased protection against shocks and guaranteed water resistance.
In 1970, the brand introduced the Edox Geoscope, the first real world time watch, displaying the time of more than 50 countries around the world, as well as local time, thanks to a dial displaying a world map rotating in 24 hours.
<h2 dir="ltr">Challenges and Renaissance</h2>
The quartz crisis of the 1970s posed major challenges for the Swiss watch industry. Edox is not spared and must adapt its production by integrating quartz movements. In 1983, the company was bought by Victor Strambini, who relocated the headquarters to Geneva, in the Swiss Jura. Under his leadership, Edox remains one of the rare independent Swiss watch brands, continuing to innovate while respecting watchmaking traditions.
In 1998, Edox set a record with the Edox Les B&eacute;monts Ultra Slim, the thinnest calendar watch in the world, with a movement just 1.4 mm thick, a technical feat unmatched to date
<h2 dir="ltr">Sports Commitment and Modern Collections</h2>
Edox partners with various water and mechanical sports, becoming the official timekeeper of prestigious competitions such as the World Rally Championship (WRC) and the Extreme Sailing Series. These partnerships reflect the brand's commitment to precision and performance.
Edox's contemporary collections, such as the Edox Delfin Mecano, the Edox Chronorally, the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/edox/skydiver">Edox SkyDiver</a> or the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/edox/les_bemonts">Edox Les B&eacute;monts</a>, combine sporty design and elegance, incorporating modern materials like titanium, ceramic and carbon fiber, while maintaining the brand's heritage.
<h2 dir="ltr">Conclusion</h2>
With more than 130 years of history, Edox embodies Swiss watchmaking excellence, combining tradition and innovation. Its commitment to quality, precision and timeless design continues to appeal to watch enthusiasts around the world, consolidating its reputation as a brand of trust and prestige.
Check out the best&nbsp;<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/edox/why_customers_choose_edox">Edox reviews</a> thanks to Dialicious in order to make the right choice among the brand's different models.

I was looking for a skeleton watch with a Swiss movement, because I like watch movements, a Swiss movement was the holy grail of what I was looking for, but the price is often around €2000, it's not so easy to seize the opportunity, you think about it several times. Luckily I found this watch at a very very interesting price, I ordered it straight away. It meets my expectations, seeing the movement in action is really very interesting and this watch can be worn with multiple bracelets, with a leather one to give it a dressy side, and a Nato for the sports version. Everything suits it, it is accurate to +20s/day, the movement turns as it should, it's perfect. Maybe the date would have been a plus in the movement complication but it would have been a little hidden. Very happy with this watch bought at a very good price.

Skeleton watch for movement enthusiasts

My GMT titanium diver, this EDOX Class One Diver watch is a model designed for divers, offering water resistance up to 500 meters (or 50 ATM/bar). As a dive watch, it is equipped with features suited to this environment, such as a readable dial, luminescent hands and markers, and a screw-down crown. It may also include a unidirectional rotating bezel to track dive time. The materials used are generally corrosion-resistant, such as stainless steel for the case and bracelet, and sapphire for the crystal, in order to withstand salt water and pressure.

EDOX Class One Diver 500m

This watch is not one of my favorites and yet...
It has everything a great watch has, polished and brushed steel, 12-sided bezel, integrated bracelet, simple and effective sunray dial, hour and minute hand, just to make us forget that it is a quartz (very appreciable, it must be recognized.
But its advantage is its thickness, which must not exceed 5mm
Be careful with its diameter because it exceeds 42mm, I know that it exists in smaller ones for women.

Pequignet est une maison horlog&egrave;re fran&ccedil;aise fond&eacute;e en 1973 &agrave; Morteau par &Eacute;mile P&eacute;quignet ; elle s&rsquo;est d&rsquo;abord impos&eacute;e par un design joaillier (bracelet Moorea) avant d&rsquo;ouvrir, au d&eacute;but des ann&eacute;es 2000, un laboratoire de Haute Horlogerie d&rsquo;o&ugrave; sont issus des mouvements &laquo; faits en France &raquo; &mdash; Calibre Royal (2011), Calibre Royal Manuel (2018), Calibre Initial (2021) et plus r&eacute;cemment un tourbillon &mdash; qui structurent aujourd&rsquo;hui des collections contemporaines alliant complications utiles, lisibilit&eacute; et identit&eacute; nationale affirm&eacute;e.
<h3>Morteau 1973, Moorea 1984 : un r&eacute;cit fran&ccedil;ais entre design et savoir-faire</h3>
Cr&eacute;&eacute;e par &Eacute;mile P&eacute;quignet dans le Haut-Doubs, la marque s&rsquo;ancre d&egrave;s l&rsquo;origine &agrave; Morteau &mdash; bassin horloger frontalier &mdash; avant de signer, en 1984, le maillon &laquo; Moorea &raquo;, grain d&rsquo;acier articul&eacute; devenu l&rsquo;un de ses embl&egrave;mes, puis la ligne &eacute;questre Equus (1987) qui rappelle la passion du fondateur pour l&rsquo;hippisme, et ces jalons esth&eacute;tiques expliquent l&rsquo;alliance durable entre vocabulaire joaillier et montre-objet.
Au fil du temps, l&rsquo;entreprise nourrit une ambition industrielle plus large : reprise manag&eacute;riale en 2004 pour b&acirc;tir une manufacture, lancement en 2011 du Calibre Royal, puis remise &agrave; flot et passage de relais capitalistiques (rachat par quatre cadres en 2017, entr&eacute;e d&rsquo;Enowe ensuite) pour p&eacute;renniser une fili&egrave;re fran&ccedil;aise, et si le d&eacute;tail actionnarial a vari&eacute;, la constance tient dans la volont&eacute; affich&eacute;e de produire et d&rsquo;assembler en France.
La reconnaissance publique suit : obtention du label d&rsquo;&Eacute;tat &laquo; Entreprise du Patrimoine Vivant &raquo; (2014, renouvel&eacute; en 2019 et 2025) qui salue un savoir-faire d&rsquo;excellence, pr&eacute;sence de boutiques &agrave; Paris et Besan&ccedil;on, e-commerce &eacute;quip&eacute; (livraison, retours UE) et service structur&eacute;, et ce maillage clarifie pour l&rsquo;acheteur l&rsquo;acc&egrave;s &agrave; une offre fran&ccedil;aise de Haute Horlogerie.
<h3>Calibre Royal : architecture int&eacute;gr&eacute;e, grande date, lune et 88 heures</h3>
Pierre angulaire de la manufacture, le Calibre Royal r&eacute;unit dans une architecture con&ccedil;ue &agrave; Morteau une grande r&eacute;serve de marche (&asymp;88 h), une grande date &agrave; double guichet, jour, indicateur jour/nuit, phase de lune et, selon versions, un double fuseau UTC, et cette int&eacute;gration &laquo; maison &raquo; vise une lisibilit&eacute; imm&eacute;diate et une fiabilit&eacute; d&rsquo;usage plut&ocirc;t qu&rsquo;une d&eacute;monstration gratuite.
Au-del&agrave; des fonctions, la conception a demand&eacute; 279 plans industriels pour un mouvement de 318 composants (316 sp&eacute;cifiques &agrave; la maison), prot&eacute;g&eacute; par plusieurs brevets, avec un balancier de grand diam&egrave;tre visible par fond saphir, et le cahier des charges revendique une &laquo; Haute Horlogerie d&eacute;complex&eacute;e &raquo; o&ugrave; technique et confort de lecture avancent ensemble.
D&eacute;clin&eacute; en bo&icirc;tiers acier, titane ou or selon les familles (Royale Paris, Royale Grand Sport, Royale Titane, &Eacute;ditions Saphir), le Calibre Royal a aussi donn&eacute; naissance &agrave; une version manuelle (2018) et &agrave; un tourbillon volant plus r&eacute;cent, renfor&ccedil;ant le spectre esth&eacute;tique sans diluer la signature, et la coh&eacute;rence ressort&thinsp;: m&ecirc;me grammaire de cadrans, m&ecirc;mes affichages clairs, m&ecirc;me mouvement-pilier.
<h3>Calibre Initial et &laquo; mouvement fran&ccedil;ais &raquo; : Attitude, cha&icirc;ne courte et 65 heures</h3>
Lanc&eacute; en 2021 pour animer la collection Attitude, le Calibre Initial adopte un remontoir bidirectionnel, 65 heures d&rsquo;autonomie et une date &agrave; saut semi-instantan&eacute; (brevet&eacute;e), avec une cha&icirc;ne d&rsquo;approvisionnement localis&eacute;e (composants produits dans un rayon d&rsquo;environ 80 km autour de Morteau, part majoritaire fabriqu&eacute;e en France), et l&rsquo;objectif est de proposer un mouvement quotidien robuste, fin et simple &agrave; maintenir.
Visuellement, l&rsquo;oscillateur ajour&eacute; frapp&eacute; du lys &mdash; motif h&eacute;raldique maison &mdash; appara&icirc;t au dos, tandis que les cadrans Attitude restent sobres (aiguilles franches, index appliqu&eacute;s), afin que le port urbain &laquo; bureau-loisir &raquo; reste fluide ; certaines s&eacute;ries limit&eacute;es (&Eacute;lys&eacute;e) soulignent le positionnement civique de la marque, et le message tient en trois mots&thinsp;: fran&ccedil;ais, lisible, durable.
Ce &laquo; mouvement fran&ccedil;ais &raquo; irrigue aussi des familles plus sportives (Extr&ecirc;me 300) ou habill&eacute;es (36 mm en Calibre Initial), preuve que la plateforme technique se pr&ecirc;te &agrave; des gabarits vari&eacute;s sans perdre sa personnalit&eacute; fonctionnelle, et cette modularit&eacute; demeure guid&eacute;e par le souci d&rsquo;un usage r&eacute;el plut&ocirc;t que par l&rsquo;accumulation de complications.
<h3>Familles contemporaines : lectures et usages (s&eacute;lection)</h3>
Pour s&rsquo;orienter sans se perdre, on peut raisonner par familles, chacune couvrant un sc&eacute;nario d&rsquo;emploi et une pr&eacute;sence au poignet distincts&thinsp;; la liste ci-dessous r&eacute;sume des rep&egrave;res lisibles en 1-2 points, et les intitul&eacute;s respectent la nomenclature officielle actuelle.

<li>Pequignet Royale Saphir &mdash; cadran saphir translucide r&eacute;v&eacute;lant le Calibre Royal ; lanc&eacute; en 2019 pour c&eacute;l&eacute;brer la m&eacute;canique fran&ccedil;aise.&nbsp;</li>

(Mise &agrave; jour Septembre 2025)

Pequignet is a French watch brand founded in 1973 in Morteau by &Eacute;mile P&eacute;quignet; after an early chapter shaped by jewelry-inflected design (the Moorea bracelet), the company set up a Haute Horlogerie lab in the 2000s, from which came French-made movements &mdash; Calibre Royal (2011), Calibre Royal Manuel (2018), Calibre Initial (2021) and, more recently, a tourbillon &mdash; that now underpin contemporary collections combining useful complications, clarity and a distinctly national identity.
<h3>Morteau 1973, Moorea 1984: a French storyline of design and know-how</h3>
Created by &Eacute;mile P&eacute;quignet in the Haut-Doubs, the brand has been anchored in Morteau from the outset &mdash; a cross-border watch basin &mdash; before signing, in 1984, the &ldquo;Moorea&rdquo; link, an articulated steel grain that became an emblem, and the Equus line (1987), reflecting the founder&rsquo;s passion for horsemanship, and these aesthetic milestones explain the brand&rsquo;s enduring blend of jeweller&rsquo;s vocabulary and purpose-built watches.
Over time the company pursued a broader industrial ambition: a managerial takeover in 2004 to build a manufacture, launch of the Calibre Royal in 2011, then a stabilising ownership relay (buy-out by four executives in 2017, followed by Enowe&rsquo;s involvement) to secure a French pipeline, and though shareholder details evolved, the constant has been a stated will to design and assemble in France.
Public recognition followed: the state &ldquo;Entreprise du Patrimoine Vivant&rdquo; (EPV) label in 2014, renewed in 2019 and 2025; own-name boutiques in Paris and Besan&ccedil;on; equipped e-commerce (EU shipping/returns) and structured after-sales, and this footprint makes access to a French take on Haute Horlogerie straightforward for buyers.
<h3>Calibre Royal: integrated architecture, big date, moon and 88 hours</h3>
The manufacture&rsquo;s cornerstone, the Calibre Royal, bundles a long power reserve (~88 h), a double-window big date and day display, a day/night indicator, a moon phase and, on some versions, a double UTC time zone into a movement conceived in Morteau, and this in-house integration aims for instant legibility and daily reliability rather than gratuitous show.
Beyond functions, development required 279 industrial drawings for a 318-component movement (316 proprietary parts), protected by multiple patents, with a large balance showcased through a sapphire back, and the brief openly champions &ldquo;unfussy Haute Horlogerie,&rdquo; advancing technique and clarity together.
Housed across steel, titanium or gold cases (Royale Paris, Royale Grand Sport, Royale Titane, Saphir editions), the Calibre Royal also spawned a hand-wound version (2018) and a recent flying tourbillon, widening the aesthetic spectrum without diluting the signature, and coherence stands out: shared dial grammar, clear displays, one pillar movement.
<h3>Calibre Initial and &ldquo;French movement&rdquo;: Attitude, short supply chain and 65 hours</h3>
Launched in 2021 to power the Attitude collection, the Calibre Initial brings bi-directional winding, a 65-hour reserve and a patented semi-instant date, with a tightly localised supply chain (components produced within ~80 km of Morteau, the majority made in France), and the goal is a robust, slim, easy-to-service daily movement.
Visually, the openworked rotor with the house fleur-de-lys appears on the back, while Attitude dials stay restrained (crisp hands, applied markers) so desk-to-play wear remains seamless; limited &Eacute;lys&eacute;e editions underline the brand&rsquo;s civic bent, and the three-word message is: French, readable, durable.
This &ldquo;French movement&rdquo; also flows into sportier (Extr&ecirc;me 300) or smaller 36 mm references, showing the platform adapts to varied sizes without losing its functional personality, and modularity remains guided by real-world use rather than a pile-on of complications.
<h3>Today&rsquo;s families: quick orientation by wear scenario</h3>
To navigate without getting lost, think in families, each covering a use case and wrist stance; the list below gathers landmarks in one or two points apiece, and the names follow the brand&rsquo;s current official taxonomy.
<ul>
<li>Pequignet Royale Paris &mdash; downsized to 39.5 mm in its 2025 update; big date, power reserve, vertical moon; contemporary city wear.&nbsp;</li>
<li>Pequignet Royale Saphir &mdash; translucent sapphire dial revealing the Calibre Royal; launched 2019 to spotlight the French movement.&nbsp;</li>
<li>Pequignet Royale Grand Sport &mdash; 44 mm, Royal&rsquo;s classic displays (PR, big date, moon) in a sportier shell.&nbsp;</li>
<li>Pequignet Royale Titane &mdash; light, tough, sport-tool codes with LumiNova indices.&nbsp;</li>
<li>Pequignet Extr&ecirc;me 300 &mdash; 300-m diver driven by the Calibre Royal; legibility with refined execution.</li>
<li>Pequignet Attitude &mdash; three-hand/date Calibre Initial (65 h, patented date); everyday urban wear.</li>
<li>Pequignet Concorde &mdash; contemporary line with French movement; broad range of sizes/colours.</li>
<li>Pequignet Moorea &mdash; heritage return of the icon bracelet (Moorea Vintage capsule).</li>
</ul>
<h3>Positioning, prices and distribution: French Haute Horlogerie, measured volumes</h3>
Published prices place the brand in the mid-to-upper segment: Attitude around &euro;2,800&ndash;3,500 depending on reference, Extr&ecirc;me 300 typically &euro;5,600, Royale Paris (39.5 mm) roughly &euro;5,300&ndash;8,500 by material/complications, with solid-gold or special pieces well above, and this scale reflects local manufacture, refined finishing and extended warranties.
Distribution blends the official site (instalments, EU returns, up to 5-year warranty by line) and own-name boutiques in Paris (Rue de Rennes) and Besan&ccedil;on, complemented by a small specialist network, and this short channel keeps a tight grip on client experience and lead-times.
Annual volumes aren&rsquo;t disclosed, yet the structure (HH lab in Morteau, local chain, EPV) and the breadth of the range suggest steady output paced by launches, with punctual limited runs (e.g., 2024 tricolour Royale Paris), and the audience spans discerning enthusiasts and buyers seeking a credible &ldquo;made in France&rdquo; proposition.
<h3>Conclusion</h3>
Pequignet fits wearers who want clear, French-conceived Haute Horlogerie powered by coherent in-house movements. The &ldquo;Royale&rdquo; families embody the complication-with-legibility DNA; Attitude bridges into everyday wear; Extr&ecirc;me 300 covers aquatic duty; Moorea ties back to heritage. Decide by use case, validate ergonomics and reading, then choose Royal vs Initial by your relationship to complications. To align these cues with lived ownership over time, a practical compass remains Dialicious customer reviews.

I bought this Edox while looking for a watch from my year of birth that meets several criteria: from 1977, mechanical, with tritium, typical 70s design. The orange gradient (one of my favorite colors) is superb. The design of the case is typical of the 70s. Mounted on a beautiful black alligator strap from ABP, it is an elegant watch that gives me great pleasure. Excellent price-pleasure ratio since I paid only 70 euros for it.
