PANERAI

Panerai continues its commitment to sustainable luxury and a circular economy by presenting the “smaller” 44mm Submersible QuarantaQuattro with its case, case back, Safety Lock crown protector, and ceramic bezel all made of eSteel — a recycled steel alloy with identical qualities to a non-recycled alloy.  This means that 52% of the weight of the watch consists of recycled materials. Among the dial options is this misty gradient grey with a matching strap.

OMEGA

The green trend established last year just keeps growing. Omega’s Speedmaster ’57, first introduced in 2013, gets a Master Chronometer upgrade and slimmer 12.99mm profile this year, and among the eight stainless-steel models is this splendent sun-brushed bottle-green dial. These smaller 40.5mm chronographs feature two sub-dials and are driven by the manually wound Calibre 9906 with column wheel and Co-Axial escapement. The new polished-brushed bracelet is inspired by the Apollo 11 tribute launched in 2019.

TUDOR 

Dubbed the Black Bay for adventurers, Tudor’s new Pro is one of the favourites of the year. Inspired by 1950s Arctic explorers, this “technical model” also brings a new aesthetic to the BB collection and is especially appealing in steel-on-steel. Its 39mm case features a 24-hour satin-brushed steel fixed bezel and a more robust winding crown. The manufacture Calibre MT5652 was developed for this GMT model, which features a date window at 3 o’clock. Also available on a range of straps.
