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.

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.

From deep sea to outer space, exploration has always formed a core component of people's dreams. The Starship from Behrens is designed with these explorations in mind. Notably, on the dial of the Starship, a space station-themed structure has been designed. The Behrens Starship is powered by an automatic Miyota 9-series movement. The in-house designed and developed mechanical module on top shows time by a skeletonized number ring for the hours’ display. In the center, there are two triangular star-shaped indicators inspired by the propeller of the engine for the minutes and seconds to be read. The Behrens Starship features a 42mm stainless steel 316L case coated in black and comes with an all-new design crown with a sporty look. The caseback has an engraved emblem featuring a dolphin specially designed to reflect the deep sea to outer space exploration theme.

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.

Channeling the ferocious and fantastical spirit of motor racing for 2017, Azimuth rolls out the Gran Turismo, a statement-making timepiece that oozes contemporary charm while paying tribute to the iconic four-wheelers of yesteryear.
A sculptural work of art, the Azimuth Gran Turismo is distinguished by a wholly unique case, flaunting curves that recall the profile of vintage cars, sharing the same design blueprint as its predecessor, the Twin Turbo, which was launched in 2016.
Testing the aesthetic and technical limits of automobile-inspired watches, the Azimuth GT case silhouette references the curvaceous bonnets of retro Porsche 911s from the 1960s. Elsewhere, the Gran Turismo’s striking dial – positioned at an inclined angle to allow drivers to easily check the time while on the road – is a nod to the larger-than-life speedometer displays found on Mini Cooper dashboards.
Further accentuating the throwback and sporty demeanour of the Gran Turismo are two decorative air vents that flank the dial, and ribbed leather straps with contrast stitching that matches the case and dial accents, which takes inspiration from the leather upholstery of 1970s supercars.
The Azimuth Gran Turismo is a perfect example of us going deep into the world of motorsports, looking back into its past and imbuing it with a sense of futurism to offer watch lovers a watch that is truly unique and distinctive.
The undulating and voluminous profile is a sight to behold, and cranking up on style quotient, the case comes in four dashing colour options that span the sophisticated to the flamboyant. Featuring polished stainless steel, gold sandblasted PVD, electric blue sandblasted PVD and hyper cool military camouflage PVD treatments, each colour execution comes in a limited edition.
