ou want watches? We’ve got watches. This issue of Time & Style features nearly 50 great timepieces that run the gamut from trendy to classic, high-tech to one-of-a-kind. They were not chosen at random. I estimate that I look at anywhere between 800 and 1,000 new watches in a given year, and I’m constantly editing them down into categories according to the latest technology, design trends, innovative presentation, and so on. Someone once asked me, “Don’t they all look the same after a while?” Surprisingly not.

Every watch has some distinguishing detail that stands out: Breguet numerals, Dauphine hands, clous de Paris finish, extra-large date window, high-tech case material, elegant onion crown, new complication, long lugs, tapered lugs, hidden lugs...the list is long and the more watches you look at, details like this, presented on such a small canvas, practically scream out at you. Before you know it, you’re a watch addict, dreaming of your own combination of elements for your ideal superwatch. We hope the following pages give you some ideas and answer your most pressing watch questions.

190 YEARS AGO

A MAN BET ON HORSES AND CHANGED WATCHMAKING FOREVER .

In 1821, at a horse race in Paris, Nicolas Rieussec successfully tested his revolutionary invention that allowed time to be recorded to an accuracy of a fifth of a second. The chronograph was born. Today, the Montblanc TimeWalker Chronograph Automatic is a tribute to 190 years of the chronograph’s technical evolution. 43 mm stainless steel case, skelleted horns and sapphire crystal back, black dial with red gold-plated hands and indexes. Crafted in the Montblanc Manufacture in Le Locle, Switzerland.

We’re celebrating this anniversary with “The Beauty of a Second” short-film contest, presented by Wim Wenders. Enter now at montblanc-onesecond.com. Every second counts.

xotic complications like tourbillons and jumping hours are definitely impressive feats of watchmaking technology (and command equally impressive prices) but aren't necessarily things you'll make use of on a daily basis. New high-tech cases, however, made from advanced alloys, will make your watch lighter, stronger, and—most importantly—more scratch-resistant. –CB 1. SILICIUM Ulysse Nardin’s Sonata silicium collection contains a movement with components made from this silicon-based material, and a portion of the dial is cut from a silicon wafer. The benefit of silicium is that it needs virtually no lubrication, and it is highly elastic and anti-magnetic, all of which reduces the need for maintenance and keeps the watch more accurate.

DUAL-CARBON Montblanc's dual-carbon-treated case, introduced in its TimeWalker series, is finished with a special thermal carbon treatment in addition to the standard DLC (diamond-like carbon) finish, making it intensely durable. $7,400

he factors that determine why some watches are more expensive than others are as complex and mysterious as the inner workings of the watches themselves. Movements, brand cachet, design, finishing details, degree of hand assembly, component materials and clasp construction all play roles in the cost of a given watch, and make it difficult to say that one watch is “better” than another. These pieces demonstrate a few examples of what you’re getting for the price difference. –CB 1. GOLD PLATE ➡ GOLD

4. STEEL ➡ ÜBER STEEL

Gold plating over base metal is standard in the lower range, while solid 18-karat gold is the norm for higher-priced pieces.

Bulova Accutron Stratford Chronograph with rose-gold plate, $995 Glashütte Senator Automatic in 18k rose gold, $14,800

The vast majority of watches are stainless steel, and the standard is 316L surgical steel: iron mixed with a small amount of carbon.

Some companies, such as Rolex, forge their own steel, going a grade higher by adding superstrengthening and anti-magnetic ingredients to the mix.

Tudor Glamour Double Date in stainless steel, $3,030 Rolex Oyster Perpetual Milgauss in 904L steel, $7,640

2. PVD ➡ DLC

Physical vapour deposition (PVD) is a process used to fuse black metal compounds (alloys such as titanium, chromium and aluminum, or carbon) to stainless steel, producing a black surface that is more scratch-resistant. Diamondlike carbon (DLC) is an even tougher surface coating, comparable to synthetic diamond, that’s just about impossible to scratch.

Movado Black PVD Master 2, $3,495 Cartier Santos 100 with DLC case, $7,750 3. MINERAL CRYSTAL ➡ SAPPHIRE CRYSTAL

A mineral crystal is a type of glass that is more scratch-resistant than acrylic, but less resilient than sapphire. It is also highly shatterresistant. A sapphire crystal is made of synthetic sapphire, which is the hardest gem known to man, next to diamond.

COVER STORY

ARACHN A new species of super watch from Concord.

——

A

s much as the C1 BlackSpider endeavours to present itself as creepy, it is really a rather dignified, architectural timepiece that says more about the possibilities of watch engineering than most others in its blacked-out category. The C1 in fact demonstrates a degree of design restraint compared to some of its tricked-out cousins.

The basis of the arachnid-inspired design code, and what makes it possible, is a plunging flange—the cliff-like drop between the top of the bezel and the dial plate. This allows for the dramatic treatment of the C1’s signature bezel construction, consisting of eight rampart-like tabs that hold the bezel in place. The tabs in this model begin just under the grooved dial plate and angle upwards over the top of the bezel and around the other side, resembling the eight legs of a spider.

This dramatic design element is enabled by an astonishing 13.5 mm case thickness that also allows for a depth of field in which the components of the dial are arranged on various levels for a 3D effect. The multiple levels of the hands, subdials and deeply grooved dial plate rise and fall like the towers of the Manhattan skyline.

The 47 mm case is titanium, a significant detail, given the size of this watch—titanium is 30% stronger than steel but half the weight, so it allows a big watch to be worn comfortably. This watch in platinum would be like wearing a brick on your wrist.

The movement is a tourbillon, a sophisticated complication that compensates for the pull of gravity, with its rotating carriage visible through a sapphire bridge at 6 o’clock. This is nicely balanced by an open view of the mainspring at 12 o’clock. Case and strap are fully integrated, creating a more continuous design than the conventional case-lug-strap construction. All in all, a fluid, elegantly designed watch that is far more benign than its scary name. $129,000

uper watches, it turns out, might actually have real superhuman powers.

When Luc Pettavino, long-time managing director of the Monaco Yacht Show, learned that his son had Duchene Muscular Dystrophy 10 years ago, he quit his job and started a charity to help fight the disease—all funded by watches.

He persuaded his friend, the late Nick Hayek, to donate pieces from his stable of high-end Swatch Group brands, and then secured commitments from most of the rest of Switzerland’s elite. In order to participate, all watches had to be one-of-a-kind, created especially for the auction, and all proceeds donated to fighting DMD, which afflicts one in 3,600 males. This year, under the High Patronage of HRH Prince Albert, 40 watches in the third biannual ONLY auction raised 4.5-million Euros at the Hotel Hermitage in Monaco, Antiquorum presiding.
