The must-have Macro Loupe for all watch lovers

Iconic watch art prints. Made in Switzerland, lifetime guarantee

Here is a little-known watch, and for good reason, only 10 pieces were made in this configuration! My Chronoswiss Sirius Artist in solid gold and two-tone blue and white configuration is the result of several years of research, before buying it to celebrate a personal family event. This watch takes up the codes of baroque romanticism on which Chronoswiss relied in the late 20th century, and I am completely under its spell! Of course its singular aesthetic will not please everyone, but it is precisely for this reason that it speaks to me. An uninhibited beauty in its expression of romanticism (almost rococo of the 18th century), we find on the dial grand feu enamel in two colors, to honor ancestral decoration traditions. The guilloché on the solid silver dial is done beforehand on a manual machine over a hundred years old, and adds a masterful extra soul to this memorable piece. I find that the shape of the case fits my wrist perfectly, and the attention to detail is evident on every element of the watch. One astonishing detail always strikes me on the dial of this piece, it is the Breguet wire between the two enamel colors, so difficult and risky to execute, and which reflects the light with always mysterious angles.
On these special artistic editions, Maïk Panziera has also worked on the partially skeletonized movement parts to add a guilloche that recalls the work on the dial. A delight!
Chronoswiss offers models that are not made for all tastes, but represent for me a unique watchmaking experience. I am fulfilled by my watch that is so different and that speaks to my own sensibilities. After all, you buy a dream piece for yourself, and the emotion it gives me is the only thing that matters to me.
Note that the miniatures on the dial by André Martinez, and the movement decorations by Kari Voutilainen and Marion Müller are not common on this model and were made later with Chronoswiss to make it a unique piece.

A romantic and unique piece

Here is a beast like no other, and yet so impressive in its capabilities and design that I am surprised not to see more of it on the wrists of enthusiasts!
This Breitling was a revelation for me during a surprise test in store. While I expected to be swept away by the size of the almost burlesque case, a few seconds later I found myself amazed by the simplicity and efficiency of its case, the depth of its dial and the technique of its bezel. One of those watches that you absolutely have to try, but which totally convinced me for sports use. However, after several months, I found myself wearing it every day with pleasure and without any problems. A vibrant watch with changing colors, and absolutely impeccable technology. An anti-magnetic case (faraday cage around the movement), a very practical bezel locking system for mountain biking or swimming (I tended to accidentally turn the bezel during physical activities, with sweat/mud), and adequate materials (matte ceramic for the bezel, titanium for the case), make this watch capable of surviving any ordeal! I am absolutely crazy about my Breitling, and in this version with a green dial limited to the brand's boutiques, I really feel like I own a rare and little-known piece. This watch also won the GPHG 2020 competition in the diver's category, which adds another line to an already full CV. I was not necessarily convinced by Breitling divers, being more of a fan of the brand's aviation watches, and I find myself almost surprised to praise the merits of this superb piece. The only regret is that Breitling could have equipped this watch with a movement with a greater power reserve, and would have made a clean sweep. In the meantime, I'm going to do a little trail, with my Superocean 48 on my wrist of course!

A diver with a big heart

There are watches we admire, and others we feel.
The GMT-Master II 126710BLRO is one of those rare timepieces that provokes immediate emotion. At first glance, its red and blue bezel—the legendary duo nicknamed "Pepsi"—awakens a collective memory: that of great travelers, transatlantic cockpits, a time when aviation embodied elegance and audacity.

The Oystersteel case is solid, built to withstand the challenges of everyday life without ever losing its distinction. Its Oyster bracelet evokes this idea of resilience and sportiness, without sacrificing comfort. The Jubilee bracelet, meanwhile, is more supple and luminous, hugs the wrist with surprising softness, transforming each time it's worn into a moment of discreet yet profound pleasure.

But the real magic happens inside. The impressively precise caliber 3285 embodies Rolex's watchmaking mastery. Dual time, generous power reserve, and unfailing reliability—this watch is a lifelong companion.

The 126710BLRO is not just an iconic watch. It is a promise of travel, a piece of history, and a quiet symbol of reliability. It is the quintessence of 1950s watchmaking, coupled with modern mechanical robustness.

A living legend on the wrist

If watchmaking is a technical art, then the Hublot Big Bang Unico Black Ceramic & Magic Gold is a masterful expression of it. This watch perfectly embodies Hublot's dear "Art of Fusion" philosophy, blending avant-garde materials, bold design, and high-flying watchmaking engineering.

At the heart of this Big Bang beats the Unico caliber HUB1242, a flyback chronograph with a column wheel and horizontal clutch on the dial side (!!), entirely designed and manufactured by Hublot. This movement is a true technical feat, offering a 72-hour power reserve and perfect readability thanks to its skeletonized dial. The movement's architecture is both robust and spectacular, with a modern, industrial finish that blends perfectly with the watch's design. The flyback function allows the chronograph to be reset with a single press, a feature that is both practical and impressive.

Hublot is a pioneer in the use of innovative materials, and this Big Bang is a perfect example. Magic Gold, an alloy patented by Hublot, is the first scratch-resistant 18K gold, thanks to its fusion with ceramic. This means this watch can be worn without fear of everyday scratches, and the gold has a more bronze-like appearance, making it less ostentatious and more rugged.

As for the black ceramic case, it combines lightness with extreme strength. Hublot has mastered this ultra-technical material to create a case that is both elegant and extremely durable. The matte texture of the ceramic reinforces the sporty and sophisticated character of the watch, while making it incredibly comfortable on the wrist.

The structured rubber strap, Hublot's signature, enhances the comfort and sportiness of the piece. Moreover, thanks to the One Click system, it is easily interchangeable, allowing the watch to be adapted to any occasion.

Conclusion: An Avant-Garde Watch at the Service of Excellence

The Hublot Big Bang Unico Black Ceramic & Magic Gold is a watch that perfectly embodies innovation and Swiss watchmaking expertise. Its high-performance movement, revolutionary materials and powerful design make it a unique timepiece, both technically and aesthetically fascinating.

A Perfect Fusion of Technology and Technique

The MRG-B5000BA-1 is more than a G-Shock: it's an exceptional watch that combines traditional Japanese craftsmanship, technological innovation, and impeccable material execution.

The misunderstanding surrounding the MR-G lies in the fact that it's not a status watch, but it's also not designed for the general public. It's made for enthusiasts who seek, above all, high-quality products and a unique character. We don't use the same decision-making criteria as when purchasing a classic G-Shock.

The MRG-B5000BA-1 uses a very thoughtful color palette:

A deep black enhanced with touches of “Ao Zumi” blue, a traditional Japanese ink color used to symbolize serenity.
This cultural dimension gives the watch a strong visual and emotional identity, paying homage to tradition while remaining resolutely modern. Here, the color is applied by ion arc plating (deposition), a more complex form of PVD that uses plasma to instantly evaporate the material due to the extremely intense energy deployed, resulting in much higher adhesion and hardness properties.

The impeccable manufacturing quality, often exceeding Swiss standards at this price point.
The artisanal hand-finishing is worthy of the most prestigious brands. The level of finish on hand-polished titanium at Casio MR-G is extremely rare, even among Swiss watchmakers.

Owning an MRG-B5000BA-1 means choosing exclusivity through knowledge, not social recognition. It means rejecting the fuss of a logo to celebrate the quintessence of Japanese design, engineering, and tradition. It imposes a new definition of contemporary high-end watches: one of ingenuity, durability, and technological craftsmanship.

In a world where Swiss watchmaking continues to dazzle with its mechanics, Japan responds with digital poetry. And the MRG-B5000BA-1 is its silent masterpiece.

Philosophy, excellence and resilience

My Lord Matic Special 5206-5080 is a rare model equipped with the famous 5206 caliber so renowned by Seiko. Its dial and its faceted crystal are the main attractions of this model, captivating and dynamic at the same time.

I find it particularly comfortable on the wrist, and despite its small size, it remains readable and superbly balanced on the wrist. A rare little gem from the 70s, which has seen very singular designs in the Seiko universe.

A rare and fanciful dial

The story of Grand Seiko is closely linked to that of <a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/seiko">Seiko</a>, the famous Japanese watch brand. However, Grand Seiko has a distinct identity as Seiko's premium division, focusing on watchmaking excellence, precision and refined aesthetics. Since its beginnings, Grand Seiko has strived to compete with the best Swiss watch brands, embodying Japanese know-how and developing its own vision of luxury watchmaking.
<h2 dir="ltr">History of Grand Seiko</h2>
The story of Grand Seiko dates back to the late 1950s, when <a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/seiko">Seiko</a> decided to create a line of high-end watches to compete with renowned Swiss brands. The goal was to design and manufacture watches that met the highest standards of precision, durability and finish.
In 1960, Grand Seiko was officially launched, with the introduction of the Grand Seiko "First" model. This watch was equipped with a manual mechanical movement and was distinguished by its exceptional precision and readability. The dial features a distinctive logo, &ldquo;GS&rdquo;, which will become emblematic of the brand. The first Grand Seiko models were received with praise, not only in Japan, but also abroad. The watches were particularly valued for their unparalleled precision, reliability and clean aesthetic. Grand Seiko quickly gained a reputation for watchmaking excellence, rivaling established Swiss brands.
Over the decades, Grand Seiko has continued to innovate and improve its watches. The brand introduced high-precision quartz movements in the 1970s, which were considered the most precise in the world at the time. However, Grand Seiko has always maintained its commitment to mechanical movements, developing sophisticated calibers with complications such as chronographs, minute repeaters and tourbillons.
In the 1990s, Grand Seiko faced challenges due to the growing popularity of quartz watches and the decline of interest in mechanical watches. However, the brand has continued to produce high quality watches with meticulous attention to detail and precision, cementing its reputation for watchmaking excellence.&nbsp;At the turn of the 21st century, Grand Seiko experienced a renaissance. The brand was reintroduced to the international market, with particular attention given to the United States and Europe. Grand Seiko watches were now presented as luxury products, with distinctive designs and high-end finishes.
The Grand Seiko line has also diversified with the introduction of collections such as the Grand Seiko Heritage, Grand Seiko Elegance, Grand Seiko Sport and Grand Seiko Nature of Time. Each collection offers a diversity of styles and features to meet the tastes and needs of watch enthusiasts around the world.
Over the past few years, Grand Seiko has consolidated its position as an internationally recognized luxury watch brand. Grand Seiko watches are made at the Shinshu Studio factory, located in the mountains of Japan, where master craftsmen are committed to creating watches of exceptional quality. Each watch is assembled by hand and undergoes careful checks to guarantee its precision and reliability.
The constant pursuit of watchmaking perfection is a key characteristic of Grand Seiko. The brand has developed innovative technologies, such as Grand Seiko's alloy spring movement and Zaratsu polishing, which gives the cases an impeccable mirror-polished finish. These advances demonstrate the brand's commitment to innovation and superior quality.
Grand Seiko has also been recognized for its distinctive design, combining elegance and functionality. Watches often feature sleek dials with precise indexes and hands, providing exceptional readability. The cases are designed with balanced lines and highly polished finishes, adding a touch of sophistication to each model.
The Grand Seiko watch has become a symbol of Japanese craftsmanship and watchmaking excellence. The brand is proud of its motto "The Nature of Time", which reflects the deep connection between nature, time and the creation of each watch. This philosophy is reflected in dials inspired by nature, such as the Mount Iwate motif or the dials of the "Snowflake" series, which recall the beauty and purity of Japanese landscapes.
<h2 dir="ltr">How much does a Grand Seiko watch cost?</h2>
Prices for new Grand Seikos change regularly and vary depending on the model. Most cost between $7,000 and $9,000 depending on the models and finishes. A Grand Seiko Spring Drive begins at $5,000, while a Grand Seiko Kodo Constant-force Tourbillon (limited to 20 pieces) costs no less than $370,000. The second-hand market is also an opportunity to look at to buy a less expensive Grand Seiko.
<h2 dir="ltr">Grand Seiko: The discretion of luxury Japanese watchmaking</h2>
In summary, the story of Grand Seiko is that of a Japanese watch brand which has established itself as a major player in the world of luxury watchmaking. With its commitment to watchmaking excellence, unparalleled precision and refined aesthetics, Grand Seiko has captivated watch enthusiasts around the world.

What emotions for this SLGH003! I was first struck by the exceptional dial of this watch, with such lively and contrasting colors, then by the always exemplary finishes as only Grand Seiko knows how to do them. A clinical execution of the alternations of polishing between the elements of the dial, which then continues on the facets of this new "evolution 9" case.
With this anniversary watch limited to 1000 pieces, Grand Seiko introduces its new movement with free balance-spring, a double impulse escapement, and a complete balance bridge to give this piece improved robustness and precision.
There is an extra soul that emerges from the watch, transforming a gloomy morning into a little moment of happiness. The whole case, bracelet, movement and dial form a congruent whole that delights me with every glance.

The revival of Grand Seiko

I wanted a somewhat "sport chic" watch and I hesitated for a long time for this SLGH017. My heart was torn between this one and the White Birch 2021 and 2022. Finally, when I tried all three at the Place Vendôme boutique, it was the Night Birch that won my favor, hands down! Its dark dial is as detailed as the White Birch 2021 and is impressive, a treat to admire. Its hi beat 36000 movement is excellent and the fact that it is full Titanium also played a big part. I highly recommend the pieces from the Evolution 9 range. In addition, the experience in the Place Vendôme boutique is exceptional.

Grand Seiko SLGH017

A refined watch distinguished by its shimmering, iced dial that shifts from white to bluish-silver. I adore its 44GS case with its Zaratsu-faceted lugs and mirror-polished hour markers that reflect light like no other. The transparent case back also reveals the beautiful Japanese architecture of the new Hibeat movement, developed in-house by GS.

A Japanese woman as beautiful as snow melting in the sun

Grand Seiko SLGH003: Japanese Craftsmanship at Its Finest
Japanese Fine Watchmaking
Imagine yourself in a secret workshop at the foot of Mount Fuji, where master watchmakers wield their tools with samurai precision. This is where the SLGH003 comes to life. It is the result of years of craftsmanship, tradition and innovation. Forget the clichés about Swiss and German watches. Japanese fine watchmaking is a force in its own right, and the SLGH003 is living proof.
An Affordable Masterpiece
Some people think that fine watchmaking is reserved for billionaires and eccentric collectors. Well, think again! The SLGH003 is an affordable gem. Its price, while more than a cheese pizza, is far from exorbitant. You don’t have to sell a kidney or take out a loan for three generations to afford it. It’s there, within reach, ready to make you forget your earthly worries.
The Perfect Balance
The SLGH003 juggles tradition and modernity like a tightrope walker above an erupting volcano. Its Hi-Beat 9SA5 movement beats at 36,000 vibrations per hour, as if each second were a katana strike. The finishes, worthy of the greatest masters, recall the Zen gardens of Kinkaku-ji. And yet, it remains humble, without boasting or pretension.
In fact:
The Grand Seiko SLGH003 is a delicious paradox. It is the watch you wear to a society dinner, but also the one you take hiking in the mountains. It is understated elegance, sophistication without ostentation. So, my friends, look no further. Japanese fine watchmaking has a name: SLGH003. And she's waiting for you, ready to seduce you, without you having to sell a single organ.
