THE MASTER CHRONOMETER: A STORY OF TRIUMPH OVER TRAGEDY • With both Omega and Tudor now offering a Master Chronometer, the latter in the guise of the new Black Bay Ceramic, the brands have really upped their game and showcased just how incredibly accurate and technical in-house watchmaking has become.
THE STORY OF AN ICON: JAEGER-LECOULTRE REVERSO • The story of the Reverso is the story of watchmaking’s most famous swivelling case. Built for functionality during a polo game, it has since evolved to become a blank canvas for Jaeger-LeCoultre’s artistic creativity and a showcase for the brand’s technical innovations.
