Discover the 9 watches in the Invictus_S_e_r_g_i_o collection

I wanted to add some color to my collection, and green has always appealed to me. I initially wanted to acquire an OP 41 with a Matte Green dial, but my Lyon-based second-hand dealer only offered me a 36mm version, which I considered too expensive, while my Rolex retailer made it clear that there would be too long a wait, despite my good relationship with them and my previous purchases. The iconic white dial of the Cartier Santos didn't appeal to me much due to its lack of uniqueness: I saw too many of them everyw…

More and more seduced by vintage even if I measure all the difficulty that it is to find an old watch corresponding to both preservation and precision requirements, the Omega Speedmaster Ref 3592.50 from 1994 commemorating the 25th anniversary of the Apollo XI mission appeared as one of the ideal models to integrate into a collection because of the myth that it objectively represents and the very subjective luck of having found a copy in excellent condition, with its original papers and an Omega service box. Any l…

Having been a watch enthusiast for over 2 years, I have gradually built up a collection (only composed of manufacture/COSC movements) in stages and by theme (diver, chronograph); gradually increasing my investments. Tag Heuer, Tudor, Breitling... The next step could only be - within my means - the famous brand with the crown. Without being a primary Rolex aficionado, I ended up measuring all the majesty of the brand by dint of researching it and gradually fell in love with the model that I own today. Far from being…

Recent acquisition of a brand that I particularly like for its adequacy between the quality offered and what, in my eyes, constitutes the fair price to pay for a high-quality watch in full steel. Since it freed itself from the overly oppressive tutelage of its big sister from 2017 and the arrival of manufactured calibers, Tudor has never ceased to impress me. Everything seems measured, calculated, taken into consideration to please a majority. Almost all of the watches are aesthetically successful, mechanically ac…

THE unloved Rolex in its 116 900 version, the very one that broke the aesthetic and visual codes of all previous Air Kings when it was released in 2016 The Air King is both an incarnation and a paradox. The first because it is part of one of the oldest ranges of the brand with the crown. As far back as those who read me can remember, the vast majority of them will have always heard of the "Air" collection of which the "King" is the only survivor on the eve of its 80th spring. The second because it is a professional…

A diver's watch "special edition 50 years of the model" among aviation watch specialists is unusual! A watch of this size is even less so! 46mm on the wrist... Some will see it as a watch for ostentation, that we wear only to be seen and recognized... I see here a sublime timekeeper in a hypnotic sunray blue, 3-hand dial and Breitling logo in 18k gold nicely decorated with baton indexes with a "railroad" outline that seems to be one with the ceramic bezel of the same tone. The rendering is simple, effective and giv…

Having truly fallen under the spell of time in 2021, I was looking to acquire my second timepiece from a major watch manufacturer 1 and a half years later. However, after watching many videos of Xavier, after reading an infinite number of articles and specialist magazines, I still couldn't make up my mind... One fine day (or was it a night?), I went to a shop well known to the people of Lyon for its second-hand watches to just "look and try" without any definite intention to buy and luck would have it that I found…
