You won’t find full specs here. You will find intent, posture, subtext. These are horological classifieds for new releases from independents — announcements, invitations, provocations — interpreted for the collector’s subconscious.
Le Régulateur Louis Erard x Vianney Halter II
Louis Erard x Vianney Halter
World Tour. 178 + city drops of 18-25 pieces each.
Steampunk regulator seeks global nomad. Split-time display, riveted bezel, crown at 2 o’clock—because conventional is boring. Each city gets its own colored seconds hand. Collect them all or pick your favorite stop. Warning: may cause obsessive chasing behavior across continents.
Caballero
Singer Reimagined
Geneva. CHF 17,500.
Quiet confidence in a 39mm steel case. Four-barrel movement runs six days without losing its composure. Doesn’t need to announce itself—the kind of gentleman who lets his Calibre-4 do the talking. Available in Empire Green, Petrol Blue, or Piano Black. Revolution disguised as restraint.
U-BOAT
Lucca. 300 pieces per variant.
Oversized Italian with oil-immersed movement and a compensation bubble that floats like a restless spirit. 46.50mm case seeks wrist that appreciates theatrical gestures. Quarter-century celebration disguised as a dive watch. Black, green, or blue soleil dial—pick your poison for the next 25 years.
UltraFino Sapphire
Bianchet
CHF 85,500.
Transparent tonneau case reveals everything—no secrets, no shame. Just 9.8mm thick with a flying tourbillon that dances at 6 o’clock. Curved sapphire body built for daily wear, not display cases. White rubber gasket turns waterproofing into a design statement. See-through soul seeks appreciative wrist.
DC12 MaveriK
David Candaux
Vallée de Joux. Three patents.
Free double balance refuses to follow rules—named after a Texan rancher who wouldn’t brand his cattle. Flying satellite planetary at 12 o’clock spins once per minute while two independent hearts beat in titanium. 39.5mm case carved like mountain ridges. “Le Cœur et l’Esprit” engraved at 6 o’clock for those who understand.
Classic Tourbillon Teal
Laurent Ferrier
Geneva. 5 pieces. CHF 195,000.
Fifteen-year anniversary calls for platinum and secrets. Teal grand feu enamel hides double balance spring tourbillon—precision, not spectacle. Online-only drop for the faithful few who understand that true luxury whispers. First platinum case in brand history. Be fast or stay curious.
Klepcys DICE Glacial Blue
Cyrus Genève
Le Locle. 38 pieces. CHF 33,500.
World’s first double independent chronograph seeks wrist that appreciates complications. Two column wheels, two crowns, two timing functions—because why settle for measuring one thing at a time? Glacial blue titanium case hides 443 components and the restless mind of Jean-François Mojon. White and black hands reset at opposite poles.
Modello Quattro U4S-T-SPW
UNIMATIC x Massena LAB
Geneva Watch Days. 60 pieces. €2,500.
White titanium case holds a genuine meteorite dial—each slice carries Widmanstätten patterns formed over millions of years in space. The final chapter of the NASA trilogy seeks a collector who appreciates cosmic accidents. Markers float on sapphire crystal above ancient iron-nickel fragments. Professional dive specs meet extraterrestrial materials.
Freak X Crystalium
Ulysse Nardin
Le Locle. 50 pieces. CHF 40,000.
Most complicated time-only watch meets ruthenium vapor-deposition crystallization. Hour disc made from platinum-group metal 10 times rarer than platinum—fractal structures impossible to duplicate. Black DLC titanium case hides a flying carrousel with silicon escapement. No two Crystalium patterns alike. Revolutionary material art for revolutionary mechanics.
