1) Ralph Lauren’s vintage car inspires his new Sporting Watch
Watch |
I have always liked purposeful things; things that are designed not just to be decorative. I like sports and speed, style and beauty – Ralph Lauren.
Offering an elegant, athletic sensibility, the new Ralph Lauren Sporting Watch draws inspiration from the renowned designer’s passion for his vintage cars. The RL Sporting Watch, in particular, is inspired by the 1938 Bugatti Type 57SC Atlantic coupe. The watch flaunts a beautiful outer dial made of elm burl, the wood type you will find on the dash of Lauren’s Bugatti. The matte black galvanic dial on the watch features Arabic numerals for increased readability. The watch’s arrow-shaped hour and minute hands move around an open railroad-like track.

The crown of the RL Sporting Watch has been signed “RL” and on the rear is a sapphire exhibition caseback, which gives a full view of the RL Caliber RL98295 made by IWC. The watch boasts a manually wound movement with 156 components and a power reserve of 45 hours. The decor is Vertical Côtes de Genève and Perlage. The new Ralph Lauren Sporting Watch carries a price tag of $13,200.

2) Bugatti Super Sport timepiece by Parmigiani
Bugatti Watch |
A few days back, we saw some of the most exotic and expensive Bugatti Veyrons to date, and the list included the special edition Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Super Sport, the world’s fastest production car. When the supercar was lately unveiled, Swiss luxury watchmaker Parmigiani showcased its new Bugatti Super Sport timepiece developed especially to complement the supercar. While the 16.4 Super Sport is billed as the fastest car in the world, Parmigiani calls its new creation “The Fastest Watch in the World.” An evolution of the Bugatti Type 370 watch, the new Bugatti Super Sport watch has a case that resembles the standard Parmigiani curved tear drop lug, and there is a set of bending lugs in traditional form. The partially carbon fiber dial of the watch has been placed perpendicular to the axis by integrating a system of double pinions with bevel gearing.
They have designed the manually wound Calibre Parmigiani 372 two planes to complement the curves of the new Bugatti watch. Six sapphire crystals reveal the amazing movement made up of 372 parts. The bridges flaunt gold black, côtes de Genève and satin finishes. The straps are courtesy of Hermes Paris. The Bugatti logo is on the dial and the Parmigiani name is on the side at 9 o’clock.
Available in a limited run of 30 pieces, the Parmigiani Bugatti Super Sport watch comes in a 18k white gold case and is priced at $259,000.
Individualists demand excellence, exclusivity and choice, and for the very same reason, luxury watchmaking firms are always busy creating some unusual, out of the world wrist watches for the elite individuals. A luxury watch usually says a lot about the monetary and social status of its owner. If you love to spend your hard earned money on an unusual luxury wrist watch, we present to you some of the most extraordinary watches of all time.
• Hublot’s Black Caviar Bang
The $1 million Caviar Bang comes festooned with a 18k white gold case and clasp with hundreds of precision cut black diamonds, totaling to 34.5 total carats. There are 322 diamonds on the case, 179 on the bezel, and 30 on the clasp. The one million dollar watch has only one visible feature, which is the black and deep tones of the diamonds, shining in their harmonious alignment. The watch features a special Hub Solo T tourbillon movement that symbolizes the fusion between watchmaking and jewelry.
• Day & Night watch
The Day and Night watch, which doesn’t tell the time but just day or night was snapped up within 48 hrs of its launch by watch fanatics. The Day and Night watch uses the complicated tourbillon movement, invented to overcome Earth’s gravity that used to affect the accuracy of watches, which lures watch connoisseurs as well as fashion aficionados.
• Maîtres du Temps’ Chapter One
Created by master watchmakers Christophe Claret, Peter Speake-Marin and Roger Dubuis, Chapter One is a world first combination of complications comprising a tourbillion, mono-pusher chronograph, retrograde date, retrograde GMT and two idiosyncratic rolling bars, indicating the day of the week and phase of the moon. The laser-pierced moon and stars on the outer roller of the moon phase indication add to its stellar elegance.
• MB&F’s Horological Machines
There are two stunning Horological Machines No3 (HM3) watch designs named Sidewinder and Starcruiser. Both the models have some visual distinctiveness and each presents its own angle while telling the time. Hour and day/night indicator is on one sapphire cone and the Minutes indicator is on the second cone. The most striking feature of these two MB&F models is the movement with automatic rotor, which is upside down. It means you don’t have to turn your wristwatch over to boast its most appealing element.
• Moon Dust-DNA collection
The “Moon Dust-DNA” collection includes watches made from moon dust, parts of the Apollo 11 rocket and bits of spacesuits. The dials of the new watches will feature tiny craters, with dust in them from the moon rock. Steel from the Apollo 11 space shuttle will be used for the case while the strap will use fibers from a spacesuit that was worn during the ISS mission.
• Hublot’s Big Bang
The $1 million Big Bang boasts a fully invisible setting that makes the material disappear and the only thing revealed are the diamonds. The credit goes to the craftsmen who accomplished the tedious job of making this exclusive watch, which was not feasible a few years ago. Startlingly, the tourbillon movement of the watch is veiled under 493 Top Wesselton baguette diamonds of dissimilar sizes.
• Titanic-DNA watches
The Titanic-DNA watches have been made from the hull of the doomed Titanic. The metal has been mixed with contemporary shipbuilding steel to make the casing of the timepieces. The black dials have been made by mixing the recovered coal burned in the Titanic’s furnaces with ceramics.
• Vacheron Constantin’s Quai de I’lle
Dubbed the Quai de I’lle, the watch features invisible UV marking, laser perforations, high-security inks, and other techniques employed to secure passports and currencies. Some of the models available in this watch collection tout tiny text on the dials, which can be read only with the help of a magnifying glass.
• Ulysse Nardin Tellurium J. Kepler
Depending on which part of the globe you live, you can order a Ulysse Nardin Tellurium J. Kepler showing Earth as seen from the North or South Pole. Sitting in any part of the world, you can know which part of the Earth has daylight and which is wrapped in darkness. The watch is divided in two parts where one part rotates once in a year and the other shows when there will be a solar or a lunar eclipse.
• DeWitt Concept No. 1
This gothic pirate spaceship of a watch does set new standards for steampunk artifacts with its expanding riveted case, flying tourbillon, five barrels and a 21 day power reserve. The flying tourbillon has been employed to counteract the force of gravity and keep the watch accurate.
• Cabestan Winch Tourbillion Vertical Watch
The Steampunk-ish Cabestan Winch Tourbillion Vertical Watch is such a stunning creation that you’ll forget that it actually tells the time. It has 1,352 components all working together, driven by a 450 link chain and nickel silver drums. Two rotating drums indicate the time, while further drums show power reserves.
• Hysek Colosso
Hysek Colosso watch gives you the liberty to watch the Earth spin right on your wrist. It features a 12mm three dimensional globe that sits at 12 o’clock. The movement is implemented by a cathedral timbre and 62 jewels with a 48 hour power reserve. Featuring a big date at 12 o’clock, it also displays an indication of the cities of the 24 time zones linked to the GMT.
