The Atelier Wen Perception Xuan (漩) pairs the structured architecture of the Perception case with a natural pietersite dial - each one cut from stone, each one visually distinct. The result is a watch that feels controlled in design, but organic in detail. Inspiration & Design Perception is built around traditional Chinese architectural principles, reinterpreted into a modern sports watch. The case and bracelet reference sloped rooftops and geometric windows, while the dial construction draws from 榫卯 (sunmao) — a friction-based joinery system used without nails or glue. The Xuan edition adds a material layer to this concept. Its pietersite dial reflects 山水盆景 (mountain-water landscapes) — flowing patterns resembling streams against darker quartz structures. No two dials share the same composition. Dial & Case Details The dial is cut from natural pietersite, revealing layered, iridescent textures unique to each watch. A four-layer dial construction creates depth, framed by a black PVD huiwen-patterned chapter ring filled with X1-grade Super-LumiNova. Rhodium-plated indices and leaf-shaped hands provide contrast without overpowering the stone surface. The 904L steel case features a mix of brushed and polished surfaces with sharp transitions and tight finishing. 40mm diameter 47mm lug-to-lug 9.4mm thickness Screw-down crown, 100m water resistance Wears compact, closer to a 38–39mm profile. Movement & Mechanics The Perception Xuan is powered by the customised SL1588 automatic movement. At 3.4mm thin, it enables the overall case to stay slim while maintaining mechanical robustness. 28,800 bph (4Hz) ~41-hour power reserve Regulated to ±10 seconds/day Adjusted in 5 positions and temperature Finished with circular côtes de Genève, heat-blued screws, and a tungsten rotor with black rhodium plating. The semi-display caseback reveals key movement components, framed by a hammered texture and raised stone lion motif. Bracelet & Wearability The integrated 904L bracelet is engineered to match the case - not just visually, but structurally. Tapers from 22mm to 18mm Gradual thickness reduction for comfort Quick-release spring bars The proprietary on-the-fly micro-adjustment and telescopic deployant clasp allow for precise, tool-free sizing. Final Impression The Perception Xuan is not loud, but it is distinctive. The stone dial introduces natural variation, while the architecture keeps the watch grounded and precise. It’s a piece that reveals more over time - especially on wrist. Availability Preorder now at Red Army Watches Singapore. Batched deliveries scheduled for Q3/4 2026 onwards.

The Lucky Harvey Dragon Green draws from one of the most powerful symbols in Chinese history: the dragon. Revered since ancient times as an emblem of authority, fortune, and wisdom, the dragon was claimed by emperors as the “true dragon,” representing supreme power and divine legitimacy. In this timepiece, Lucky Harvey transforms that legacy into living mechanical art. Through precise engineering and thoughtful restraint, the Dragon Green brings ancient culture and contemporary watchmaking together - creating a watch that does not merely reference history, but animates it. Why We Curated This Watch A culturally significant automaton inspired by Chinese imperial symbolism Rare “dragon spitting pearl” mechanical animation Hand-finished sculptural dial with deep artistic character A bold yet refined statement piece rooted in heritage Inspiration & Design In ancient Chinese belief, the dragon stood as the head of the Four Sacred Beasts - a symbol of prosperity, protection, and cosmic balance. Lucky Harvey draws upon this mythology to create a timepiece that expresses strength with elegance, and movement with meaning. The dragon encircling the dial is finely carved and richly coloured, coiling with purpose rather than aggression. Crafted with enthusiasm and precision, the design reflects Lucky Harvey’s commitment to integrating ancient cultural symbolism with modern fashion sensibility - not as ornament, but as storytelling. Dial & Case Details The dragon motif surrounds the dial in a sculptural composition, brought to life through meticulous engraving and layered colour finishing. At its centre is a 999 pure gold bead, a symbolic “dragon pearl” associated with wisdom and fortune. Every hour on the hour, the gold bead is revealed before slowly retreating back into the dragon’s mouth - a measured, ritualistic motion that feels deliberate rather than theatrical. The watch is housed in a 43mm stainless-steel case, paired with a deep green dial that enhances the richness of the dragon’s form while reinforcing the watch’s cultural depth. A sapphire crystal protects the dial, while 5ATM water resistance ensures the piece remains suitable for everyday wear. Movement & Mechanics Powering the Dragon Green is Lucky Harvey’s in-house automaton movement, delivering approximately 40 hours of power reserve. This calibre governs both precise timekeeping and the signature bead animation, synchronising mechanical reliability with symbolic motion. It is this balance - enthusiasm paired with rigour - that defines the watch’s character. On the Wrist Despite its expressive design, the Dragon Green wears with surprising balance. The deep green tones temper the bold dragon motif, while the case proportions and strap ensure comfort and stability throughout the day. This is a watch that commands attention without demanding it - a statement of culture, craftsmanship, and individuality.

Atelier Wen's Perception was conceived to challenge conventional ideas about Chinese watchmaking, placing traditional craftsmanship within a thoroughly contemporary sports-watch design. Perception V3 advances that idea with perhaps its most significant evolution yet. The new Yún 筠, rendered in bamboo green, retains the hand-turned guilloché that defines the collection while introducing a micro-frosted 904L steel case and bracelet. More importantly, V3 replaces the previous movement architecture with a highly customised Pequignet EPM03 - a French manufacture calibre extensively reworked for Atelier Wen and now displayed through a full sapphire exhibition caseback. Inspiration & Design Perception draws heavily from traditional Chinese architecture, particularly 榫卯 (sǔn mǎo) - the mortise-and-tenon construction technique that allows structures to interlock without nails or glue. That principle informs the four-part dial construction, where the components fit together around the guilloché centre. The huiwen-patterned chapter ring provides another architectural reference, while the case flanks and asymmetrical bracelet links echo the curves, rooflines and geometric forms found in traditional Chinese buildings. Yún is the first new core Perception dial colour in four years. Atelier Wen describes the shade as bamboo green, giving V3 a colour that feels distinctly connected to its Chinese design vocabulary without becoming overtly thematic. Dial & Case At the centre is Perception's signature écailles de poisson - or fish-scale - guilloché, produced by the workshop of Cheng Yucai, whom Atelier Wen identifies as China's first master guilloché craftsman. Each dial is individually hand-turned on a rose engine designed by Master Cheng himself, requiring sustained manual control throughout the process. The bamboo-green guilloché is surrounded by a huiwen-patterned chapter ring printed with X1-grade Super-LumiNova, complemented by applied rhodium-plated indices and substantial rhodium-plated leaf-shaped hands. The minute and seconds hands are individually bent by hand. Yún receives its own case treatment within the V3 collection: micro-frosted 904L stainless steel contrasted by mirror-polished chamfers. At 40mm in diameter, 47mm lug-to-lug and just 10.4mm thick including the crystal, it retains the relatively compact proportions that have characterised Perception. Water resistance is 100m/10ATM. A double-domed box sapphire crystal sits above the dial, treated with ten layers of anti-reflective coating. Movement The most significant change arrives underneath. Perception V3 is powered by a highly customised version of the Pequignet EPM03, produced by independent French manufacture Pequignet in Morteau. The automatic calibre operates at 28,800 vibrations per hour, uses 21 jewels and provides approximately 65 hours of power reserve. It also brings hacking seconds to Perception for the first time. Atelier Wen specifies chronometer-grade accuracy of -4/+6 seconds per day, with an average stated deviation of ±2 seconds per day. Each movement is adjusted in six positions and across three temperatures. Bi-directional automatic winding uses a pawl-based system with a patented tooth profile designed to improve efficiency and reduce wear. But V3 doesn't simply install a French movement unchanged. Its bridges have been reshaped around the traditional Chinese representation of wind, then filled with mirror-polished blue aventurine lacquer. Finishing includes wavy Côtes de Genève, black-polished screws, machine-made anglage, perlage, a snailed barrel and a rotor combining snailing and frosting. For the first time on Perception, all of this is visible through a full sapphire exhibition caseback. Bracelet The integrated-style bracelet continues in 904L stainless steel, with Yún receiving the same micro-frosted treatment as its case. Individually chamfered links create polished highlights against the softer matte surfaces. It tapers from 22mm at the case to 18mm at the clasp and gradually reduces in thickness from 3mm to 2.6mm. Quick-release spring bars also allow it to be exchanged for Atelier Wen's optional FKM rubber straps without tools. V3 introduces a patent-pending on-the-fly micro-adjustment system operated through a button concealed within the Atelier Wen logo, together with a proprietary telescopic deployant blade designed to maintain a slim clasp while making the watch easier to put on and remove. Final Thoughts Perception V3 doesn't discard what made the original watch distinctive. Instead, Atelier Wen has concentrated its changes where they matter. Master Cheng's hand-turned guilloché remains at the heart of the watch, while the new Pequignet EPM03 transforms what happens on the other side. The extensively customised movement, exhibition caseback, upgraded clasp and refined finishing give V3 considerably greater mechanical depth without compromising Perception's original identity. Yún may be the most cohesive expression of that evolution: bamboo-green guilloché against softly micro-frosted 904L steel, with Chinese craftsmanship on the dial and an unusual Franco-Chinese collaboration visible through the back.

Mechanical watches are usually experienced through sight and touch. The Lucky Harvey Chiming Watch 2.0 adds another dimension: sound. Its self-produced LH003 automatic movement incorporates an hour-chiming mechanism, with the hammer and circular gong deliberately exposed on the dial. For this limited blue edition, Lucky Harvey combines that unusual complication with a Grade 5 titanium case and bracelet and a hand-worked radial-brushed dial. Production is limited to 100 pieces. Inspiration & Design At the centre of the Chiming Watch 2.0 is its visible striking mechanism. Lucky Harvey says the hammer takes inspiration from the bianqing, an ancient Chinese ritual musical instrument, connecting the mechanical function with a reference to traditional ceremonial music. Unlike the previous dial treatment, this edition also removes the former silent-window display. That leaves more uninterrupted space for the radial texture and puts greater emphasis on the interaction between the dial, hammer and circular gong. The result feels less like a conventional complication hidden beneath a dial and more like an instrument whose mechanism forms part of the visual architecture. Dial & Case The green dial is produced using a manual radial-brushing process rather than a conventional machine-applied sunburst finish. Lucky Harvey states that each dial takes approximately two to three hours to complete, with individually formed grooves creating a strongly directional texture that shifts with changing light. Surrounding it is a 40mm Grade 5 titanium case measuring 11mm thick. The case combines precision CNC machining with directional brushing, polished surfaces and chamfered detailing. Sapphire crystal protects the dial, while water resistance is rated to 5 ATM. Movement Inside is Lucky Harvey's self-produced LH003 automatic movement, operating at 28,800 vibrations per hour (4Hz) with 30 jewels and approximately 40 hours of power reserve. Its defining feature is the hour-chiming mechanism. The exposed hammer works with the circular gong to produce the audible strike, turning the passage of time into both a visual and acoustic experience. Through the sapphire exhibition caseback, the movement is visible with Geneva-stripe finishing and a gold-toned PVD rotor decorated with a guilloché pattern. Lucky Harvey states an average daily timekeeping deviation within ±15 seconds. Bracelet The watch is fitted with a matching Grade 5 titanium bracelet. Lucky Harvey redesigned the bracelet curvature for the Chiming Watch 2.0 so that it conforms to the wrist earlier, bringing the watch approximately 3mm closer to the wrist than the previous construction. Despite the mechanical complication and full titanium bracelet, the complete watch weighs approximately 97g. Final Thoughts The Chiming Watch 2.0 shows why Lucky Harvey is difficult to categorise simply as an automata-watch brand. Here, the spectacle comes from traditional mechanical principles - a hammer, a gong and the physical production of sound - presented in a distinctly contemporary package. The green hand-worked dial and Grade 5 titanium construction give the watch enough material and finishing interest to stand on their own, while the chiming mechanism provides the feature that makes it unmistakably Lucky Harvey. Technical Specifications Limited edition: Only 100 pieces available worldwide Case size: 40mm Case material: Grade 5 titanium Case back: Sapphire Movement type: Automatic Movement no.: In-house movement LH003 incorporating jade chime Power reserve: Approx 40hrs Dial: Green, hand-finished radial-brushed textured dial with big date display, lumed hands Glass: Sapphire Water resistance: 5ATM Strap type: Bracelet Strap material: Grade 5 titanium Buckle: Deployant buckle Warranty: 2 years

The Laco Frankfurt 43 GMT Schwarz takes the clarity and functionality of the classic pilot's watch and adapts it for modern travel. A dedicated 24-hour hand works with an internal rotating bezel to display a second time zone, while the dark sandblasted case, black dial and flashes of orange give the watch a distinctly contemporary instrument aesthetic. Powered by the Swiss-based Laco 330 automatic movement and equipped with magnetic-field protection and 200 metres of water resistance, the Frankfurt GMT is a genuinely capable travel watch built on Laco's aviation heritage. Inspiration & Design Pilot watches have always been instruments first, designed to deliver essential information quickly and clearly. The Frankfurt GMT extends that philosophy to one of the realities of modern travel: moving between time zones. A dedicated 24-hour hand indicates a second time zone against the internal rotating bezel. Rather than requiring the bezel to be manipulated directly, it is adjusted using the watch's second screw-down crown - keeping the functionality integrated within the case. The design combines recognisable Laco pilot-watch elements with a more contemporary technical character. Its dark sandblasted finish references the purposeful appearance of historic aviation instruments, while the orange GMT indication clearly separates travel time from the primary display. The Frankfurt GMT's combination of classic and modern design was recognised with a Red Dot Award for Product Design in 2020. Dial & Case The black dial retains the immediate readability central to Laco's pilot-watch design. Arabic numerals and indexes are treated with Super-LumiNova C3, complemented by a crisp white minute scale. Thermally blued hour and minute hands are also luminous, while the seconds hand incorporates an aircraft detail. The dedicated GMT hand is finished with orange Super-LumiNova, making the second time zone immediately distinguishable from local time. The dark sandblasted stainless-steel case measures 43mm in diameter, 12.5mm high and 50mm lug-to-lug. It incorporates additional magnetic-field protection and is topped by a double-domed sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating on both sides. Two protected screw-down crowns operate the watch and internal rotating bezel, while the solid screw-down caseback is decorated with an aircraft relief. Water resistance is rated to 200m/20ATM. Movement The Frankfurt GMT is powered by the Laco 330 automatic movement, based on the Swiss-made Sellita SW 330-2. Designed specifically for GMT functionality, the movement drives the central 24-hour hand used to track a second time zone alongside the conventional hours, minutes and seconds. Combined with the independently adjustable internal 24-hour bezel, the system gives the Frankfurt GMT a practical travel complication without compromising the straightforward readability expected of a Laco pilot's watch. Bracelet / Strap The Frankfurt 43 GMT Schwarz is supplied on a black, water-resistant FiberTech strap, paired with a stainless-steel buckle and a 20mm lug width. A second grey-and-orange nylon strap is included, providing a more casual and overtly aviation-inspired alternative while picking up the orange GMT accents on the dial. Laco also supplies a strap-changing tool, making it easy to switch between the two. The complete set is presented in an aluminium box together with a "Remove Before Flight" keyring. Final Thoughts The Frankfurt GMT succeeds because the additional functionality feels like a natural extension of the pilot-watch concept rather than complication for its own sake. The second time zone is useful, intuitive and visually well integrated. At the same time, magnetic-field protection, screw-down crowns and 200 metres of water resistance make this considerably more robust than the average travel watch. It remains unmistakably Laco, but this isn't a historical reproduction. The Frankfurt GMT takes the brand's aviation DNA and gives it a genuinely modern purpose - something its Red Dot Award recognition reinforces.

The Laco Cuxhaven 42.5 is a modern Navy watch shaped by the visual language of historic maritime timekeepers. Its white enamel-look dial creates a clean backdrop for the black Arabic numerals, railway minute circle and subsidiary seconds display at 6 o’clock. The layout is restrained and highly legible, while the fluted bezel and mixed case finishing introduce a measured degree of refinement. At 42.5mm, the Cuxhaven has a confident wrist presence, but its slim 11mm height helps maintain balanced proportions. The result is a watch that feels substantial without becoming overly heavy or cumbersome. Inspiration & Design Laco’s maritime watches are closely connected to the precision instruments developed to meet the specifications of the German Marine Observatory in Hamburg. The Cuxhaven reflects that heritage through clarity rather than decoration. The railway minute track supports precise reading, the Arabic numerals remain immediately legible, and the small-seconds display preserves the traditional architecture associated with hand-wound marine watches. The white enamel-look dial gives the watch a brighter, more classical character than Laco’s black-dial pilot watches. Combined with the polished and brushed case surfaces and fluted bezel, it delivers a more refined expression of the brand’s functional German design language. Dial & Case The 42.5mm stainless steel case combines polished and brushed finishes and is framed by a distinctive fluted bezel. A flat anti-reflective sapphire crystal protects the white enamel-look dial. The Arabic numerals and indexes are treated with Super-LumiNova C3, while the railway minute circle reinforces the watch’s precise, instrument-inspired appearance. The hour and minute hands are varnished black and filled with Super-LumiNova C3. The small-seconds hand is also luminous, supporting readability across the full display. These are not thermally blued hands. The screwed caseback incorporates an extra-large sapphire crystal opening, providing an expansive view of the movement. The case measures 11mm in height, 49.8mm lug to lug and accepts a 22mm strap. Water resistance is rated to 10ATM. The watch is completed by a light-coloured leather strap with a stainless steel buckle. Movement The Cuxhaven 42.5 is powered by the Laco 98 hand-winding movement, based on the ETA 6498.2 in top quality level. The movement does not feature a stop-seconds function. Its appeal instead lies in its large-scale construction, traditional hand-wound operation and extensive decorative finishing. Visible through the extra-large sapphire caseback, the movement features: Côtes de Genève across the bridges Thermally blued screws Sunray finishing on the ratchet wheel and crown wheel Engraved Laco logo on the ratchet wheel The absence of an automatic rotor leaves the movement architecture fully exposed, allowing the finishing and large calibre layout to become an integral part of the watch’s character. Final Thoughts The Cuxhaven 42.5 is one of Laco’s most distinctive watches outside its pilot collection. Its white enamel-look dial, small-seconds display and fluted bezel give it a classically maritime identity, while the decorated Laco 98 movement adds genuine mechanical interest. The hand-wound format also creates a more deliberate ownership experience, rewarding those who appreciate interacting with a mechanical watch rather than simply wearing one. For collectors drawn to traditional German design, visible craftsmanship and the quieter elegance of historic Navy watches, the Cuxhaven offers a compelling alternative to the conventional Flieger.

The SEVENFRIDAY P1C/06 Bubble Gum proves that serious watchmaking doesn't always have to take itself seriously. Inspired by the nostalgic joy of bubble gum and pop-art aesthetics, this watch brings together pastel tones, glossy surfaces and the unmistakable layered architecture that defines the P-Series. Bold, playful and unapologetically expressive, the Bubble Gum is a reminder that collecting watches should be fun. Inspiration & Design Created under the theme "The Exhibitionist", the P1C/06 celebrates self-expression through colour. Soft pastel shades of mint, pink, lavender and orange are layered across the dial to create a visual experience that feels playful without becoming childish. Unlike traditional watch designs that rely on monochromatic palettes or conservative styling, the Bubble Gum embraces contrast and personality. Every component contributes to a vibrant composition that immediately attracts attention while remaining unmistakably SEVENFRIDAY in its construction and proportions. This is a watch designed for those who enjoy standing out rather than blending in. Dial & Case Details The P1C/06 retains the signature multi-layer architecture that established the P-Series as one of the most recognisable collections in contemporary watchmaking. A four-layer dial construction creates depth throughout the display, while high-gloss finishing enhances the playful colour palette and allows the pastel tones to shift subtly under different lighting conditions. The iconic rounded-square case is paired with a white ceramic bezel, matching crown and animation ring, creating a bright and cohesive aesthetic rarely seen in mechanical watches. The result is a design that feels fresh, energetic and distinctly modern. Movement & Features Powering the Bubble Gum is the reliable automatic Miyota movement, delivering the mechanical character expected from a SEVENFRIDAY while allowing the dial design to remain the visual centrepiece. Protected by a sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating, the watch offers durability for everyday wear while preserving clarity across the layered dial architecture. NFC authentication technology embedded within the caseback allows owners to verify and register their watch through the SEVENFRIDAY App. Bracelet / Strap & Wearability The white calf leather strap complements the watch's pastel palette and reinforces its light-hearted character. Tone-on-tone stitching maintains a clean appearance while allowing the dial to remain the focal point. Despite its playful aesthetic, the P1C/06 wears with the same confidence and wrist presence that collectors expect from the P-Series. It feels substantial without becoming overwhelming and comfortably transitions between casual weekends, creative workplaces and social occasions. Final Impression The P1C/06 Bubble Gum captures a side of watch collecting that is often overlooked - joy. It challenges the idea that a mechanical watch must be serious, monochromatic or rooted in heritage-inspired design. Instead, it embraces colour, creativity and individuality while remaining unmistakably SEVENFRIDAY. For collectors looking to add personality to their collection, few watches deliver quite the same impact.

A mechanical spectacle on the wrist. The Lucky Harvey Genghis Khan Automata Chiming Watch in Rose Gold combines animated dial motion with a synchronised chime - transforming timekeeping into a visual and acoustic experience. Limited to 100 pieces worldwide. Inspiration & Design Inspired by the commanding presence of Genghis Khan, this rose gold execution leans into richness and visual impact. The warmer tone enhances the narrative, turning the dial into a mechanical stage rather than a flat display. It’s less about subtlety, more about presence - where design and motion work together to tell a story. Dial & Case Details The dial is built in layers, with sculpted elements that create real depth and interaction. Multi-layer dial with applied automata components Rose gold case enhances warmth and detail visibility Strong separation between static and animated elements The case acts as a frame - keeping attention on the moving scene without distraction. Movement & Mechanics Powered by a mechanical movement integrated with an automata and chiming module.
