TUDOR RANGER

Consider yourself a contemporary explorer? Tudor has just the timepiece for your off-the-grid adventures in the new Ranger M79950. This robust looker with its 39mm satin-brushed steel case is inspired by the Ranger 7995 from the 1960s and celebrates the 70th anniversary of the British North Greenland expedition of 1952-54 — the icy testing ground of the Tudor Oyster Prince that informed the original Ranger design.

Features include bold painted Arabic numerals and a unique hand design, and a COSC-certified MT5402 automatic movement inside with 70 hours’ power reserve. Waterproof to 100m. Available on Nato-style and hybrid leather-rubber straps or a steel bracelet.

BREITLING SUPEROCEAN

The redesigned Breitling Superocean dive watch is bold and crisp, offering maximised legibility at depth, where it counts. Taking a cue from the no-nonsense “Slow Motion” model of the 1960s, new novelties feature chunky luminescent indexes, squared-off hands, and a high-contrast dial ring.

Modern elements bringing freshness include the ceramic-inlayed bezel and colourful dials, such as this intense turquoise 36mm edition on matching rubber strap or steel bracelet. Also available in 42, 44, and 46mm models in steel, steel and gold, and bronze, featuring the automatic Breitling Caliber 17. With water resistance to 300m they will serve you well, from ocean to table.

ARCEAU HERMÈS STORY

The fanciful spirit that has been present in the Hermès Arceau since 1978 is captured in this playful diorama of exquisitely crafted animals striking a pose. Artisans have created the whimsical, colourful composition through fine marquetry, miniature painting, and engraving, and it is framed by a bezel set with 82 diamonds.

Inside its 38mm rose-gold case is the manufacture H1912 automatic mechanical movement. Featuring its characteristic single stirrup-shaped lug, the Hermès Arceau Story is presented on a white alligator-leather strap.
