The CIGA Design Blue Planet Ice Age takes the same concept and softens it. Instead of strong contrast or metallic highlights, it leans into cooler tones and layered textures - creating a dial that feels calmer, but no less detailed. Time is still read through motion, but the experience is more subdued. Inspiration & Design The design draws from glacial landscapes and frozen terrain. Rather than emphasising separation between elements, the dial blends them. Land and ocean transition more gradually, creating a sense of continuity across the surface. The result is less graphic, more atmospheric - closer to a landscape than a display. Dial & Case Details The dial is constructed as a three-dimensional Earth, with terrain rendered through layered finishing and subtle tonal shifts. Unlike the Black Gold version, contrast is intentionally reduced. Details emerge through texture rather than colour, giving the dial a softer visual presence. Light plays a key role - revealing contours gradually rather than immediately. The case remains restrained, allowing the dial’s surface treatment to define the watch. Movement & Mechanics The automatic movement drives the rotating Earth display. Time is read against a fixed indicator, with the globe acting as the moving element. The motion is continuous and slow, reinforcing the overall calmness of the design. The mechanics stay in the background - the emphasis here is on surface and form. Bracelet/Strap & Wearability The softer palette makes this one of the more wearable Blue Planet variants. It integrates easily with neutral outfits and does not dominate the wrist, despite the complexity of the dial. Presence comes from detail, not contrast. Final Impression The Ice Age version offers a different entry point into the Blue Planet series. Where other versions are more expressive, this one is more restrained - focusing on texture, tone, and atmosphere. For those who appreciate subtlety over statement, it is the most understated interpretation of the concept. Technical Specifications Case size: 46mm Case material: Ceramic Case back: Sapphire exhibition caseback Movement type: Automatic Movement no.: In-house movement Power reserve: Approx 40hrs Dial: Unique dial design depicting our planet Earth on your wrist Glass: Sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating Water resistance: 3ATM Strap type: Ceramic and fluorine rubber Strap material: White ceramic bracelet and white fluorine rubber Buckle: Deployant clasp for the bracelet and tang buckle for the rubber strap Warranty: 2 years

The CIGA Design Blue Planet Gilding Black Gold watch shifts the concept into a more defined visual language. Where earlier versions emphasised form, this variant introduces contrast - using black and 24K gold to sharpen the structure of the Earth and make the passage of time more legible. It remains unconventional, but more resolved. Inspiration & Design The design continues to centre on Earth as a system in motion. Here, the addition of black creates a stronger visual foundation, allowing the gilded terrain to stand out with greater clarity. The contrast enhances both depth and readability, giving the dial a more architectural presence. It feels less like a concept piece, and more like a finished object. Dial & Case Details The dial is constructed as a three-dimensional Earth, with oceans, landforms, and terrain rendered in precise proportion. Using CNC engraving and multi-layer gilding, the surface captures both the contours and relative altitude of the landscape. Each dial is produced over 68 hours, with multiple finishing stages to achieve depth and clarity. 24K gold is applied selectively across the terrain, introducing warmth and contrast while highlighting the sculptural details of the globe. Against the darker base, the gold elements become more pronounced - reinforcing the depth and making the structure easier to read. Movement & Mechanics The automatic movement is adapted to drive the rotating Earth display. Instead of traditional hands, time is read against a fixed indicator while the globe itself rotates. This changes how time is perceived - less segmented, more continuous. The mechanics remain largely hidden, but their effect defines the entire experience. Bracelet/Strap & Wearability Despite its visual complexity, the watch wears comfortably. The case proportions remain balanced, while the darker palette makes it feel slightly more understated on the wrist compared to lighter Blue Planet variants. It carries presence, but in a more controlled way. Final Impression The CIGA Design Blue Planet Gilding Black Gold Automatic Watch refines an already unconventional concept. By introducing contrast and material depth, it makes the design more legible, more structured, and ultimately more wearable. For those drawn to the Blue Planet but looking for a stronger visual anchor, this is the most resolved execution. Technical Specifications Case size: 46mm Case material: Ceramic Case back: Sapphire exhibition caseback Movement type: Automatic Movement no.: In-house movement Power reserve: Approx 40hrs Dial: Unique dial design depicting our planet Earth on your wrist Glass: Sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating Water resistance: 3ATM Strap type: Ceramic and fluorine rubber Strap material: Black ceramic bracelet and black fluorine rubber Buckle: Deployant clasp for the bracelet and tang buckle for the rubber strap Warranty: 2 years

The Choisi Heritage collection captures the essence of a classic watch design. A form that can never fall out of fashion, the round 42 mm case design strikes a perfect balance between wearability and style. Its high detailing allows instant readability. Sophisticated yet unassuming, the Choisi Heritage collection is a subtle reflection of enduring true values. A good 'ol chronograph sometimes looks better without most frills. The Choisi Heritage Tachygraph is a great example of that - focusing instead on design elements that bind the watch together into a coherent package. Rose-gold applied indices and a blue tachymeter scale, used to time average speed over a fixed distance, appeal to our inner vintage nut while a workhorse Valjoux 7750 automatic chronograph caliber keeps timekeeping accurate for years to come. Technical Specifications Case size: 42mm Case material: Stainless steel Case back: Sapphire exhibition caseback Movement type: Manual winding Movement no.: FHF96 Power reserve: Approx 42hrs Dial: Cream dial with rose gold applied indices, blue accents and tachymeter scale Glass: Sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating Water resistance: 5ATM Strap type: Leather Strap material: Calf Buckle: Stainless steel tang buckle Warranty: 1 year

Dark yet unassuming, the Choisi Heritage Pilot is as legible as it gets. Back when pilots did not have the privilege of digital instrumentation, they had to rely on their watches. That's why pilot watches are one of the easiest-to-read timepieces in the world. With a new-old-stock (NOS) FHF96 caliber, this watch is not merely a homage to the old days - it lives and breathes it. The handwound movement is the same exact caliber used in the watches issued to soldiers during WWII. Now, how's that for a conversation starter? Technical Specifications Case size: 42mm Case material: Stainless steel Case back: Sapphire exhibition caseback Movement type: Manual winding Movement no.: FHF96 Power reserve: Approx 42hrs Dial: Black aviator dial with silver hands and vintage lume Glass: Sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating Water resistance: 5ATM Strap type: Leather Strap material: Calf Buckle: Stainless steel tang buckle Warranty: 1 year

A form that can never fall out of fashion, the round 42 mm case design strikes a perfect balance between wearability and style. Its high detailing allows instant readability. Sophisticated yet unassuming, the Heritage Collection is a subtle reflection of enduring true values. The Choisi Heritage Docteurgraph is unlike any other chronograph watch you have ever seen. Aside from its distinctly vintage appeal in the form of rose gold applied indices and red prints, there's also one good reason (or two) why the watch is named as such--it comes with a pulsometer scale, allowing medical professionals to time the heart rate of their patients (in beats per minute). Did you notice that the chronograph pushers are also on the opposite side? This is to ensure that when worn on the left wrist (in majority of cases), they do not dig into the hands of a person performing CPR (cardio-pulmonary resuscitation). Technical Specifications Case size: 42mm Case material: Stainless steel Case back: Stainless steel Movement type: Manual winding Movement no.: FHF96 vintage caliber Power reserve: Approx 42hrs Dial: Cream dial with rose gold applied indices, red accents and pulsometer scale Glass: Sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating Water resistance: 5ATM Strap type: Leather Strap material: Calf Buckle: Stainless steel tang buckle Warranty: 1 year

Sophisticated yet unassuming, the Heritage Collection is a subtle reflection of enduring true values. The Heritage Bienne's sector dial design harkens back to the 1940s, a styling cue that was intended to inmprove legibility. Today, it not only does that, but looks like it never aged a single day.

The creators of Azimuth have once again allowed fantasy to result in the creation of the latest time travel machine: the Azimuth Spaceship Predator Lava Overland, a Volcano Exploration Machine with the ability to withstand extreme temperatures and go back in time to capture the moments of earth’s creation. The Azimuth Spaceship Predator Lava Overland is the result of the long-running love affair between Azimuth and the world of science fiction – an obsession that has birthed some of the watch marque’s most iconic collections such as Mr Roboto, Spaceship, and Twin Turbo. Marrying state-of-the-art case construction, unique material treatment and contemporary design, the Azimuth Spaceship Predator Lava Overland is a direct descendant of Azimuth’s popular Spaceship collection, known for its spacecraft-inspired aesthetics, as well as ingenious jumping hour display complemented by a highly stylised, broad minute hand. Expressing Azimuth’s uncompromising spirit of invention, the Azimuth Spaceship Predator Lava Overland's cockpit-inspired look is anchored by a two-part case. It comprises an inner capsule and an outer chassis with lugs. CNC cut in bronze, the modular case construction offers endless possibilities for new designs with the opportunity to experiment with different combinations of materials, finishing and surface treatments. The design of the Azimuth Spaceship Predator Lava Overland evokes a time and place that is of the future. The oversized crown at 12 o’clock, instead of the typical position at three o’clock; the subtly faceted surfaces on the case; the domed sapphire crystal cover; and massive titanium hands shaped like intergalactic weapons all combine to lend the watch an otherworldly, sci-fi-inspired disposition. The Azimuth Spaceship Predator Lava Overland's spirit extends to its inner workings. The highlight of this timepiece must have been the intricate enamel hand-painted dial, depicting the ferocious flow of molten lava over land. Each dial is meticulously hand painted, and the result is no two dials are exactly alike. Powered by a hand-wound caliber, the movement plates are surface treated in micro sand beads and finished in bronze colour, which accords the whole watch an earthly tone, a reflection of the natural hues of Mother Nature. Technical Specifications Case size: Capsule: 43mm; carrier: 53mm with stepped sides Case material: 2-part case consisting of a capsule and carrier in German Bronze Case back: Sapphire crystal Movement type: Manual Movement no.: Modified in-house ETA movement Dial: Enamel hand-painted dial showing the flow of lava over land Glass: Super-domed sapphire crystal  Water resistance: 3ATM Strap type: Rubber Strap material: Black rubber Buckle: Bronze tang buckle Warranty: 2 years
