COLLECTOR'S FAVOURITE
Tudor
Black Bay 58 GMT
Tudor finally heard its fans and released a smaller, thinner GMT at Watches & Wonders 2024. The case measures 39mm in diameter and is just 12.8mm thick, making it almost 2mm thinner than the other two GMT watches in Tudor's catalogue. One of the highlights of the timepiece is the black and burgundy aluminium bezel, widely recognised as the coke colourway. The steel case features satin finishes, polished surfaces, and bevelled edges. Housed inside is the brand new Manufacture Caliber MT5450-U automatic movement. It is certified by both COSC and METAS and offers 65 hours of power reserve.
NAUTICAL EXCELLENCE
Panerai
Submersible GMT Luna Rossa Titanio
Panerai debuted a new Submersible Luna Rossa timepiece at this year's Watches and Wonders show to celebrate the 37th edition of the America's Cup. The 42mm case of the timepiece is crafted from Grade 5 titanium, which is 40 per cent lighter and 60 per cent harder than stainless steel. It's one of the primary materials used to build the Luna Rossa boat. It's also the first model to feature the new Super-LumiNova X2 on the indices and hour hand. It offers 10 per cent higher luminosity than its predecessor after 180 minutes in the dark. The P.900/ GMT24H calibre movement offers 3 days of power reserve.
