It became the official watch of several airlines, among them the famous Pan American World Airways, better known as Pan Am.

It’s a Rolex practice to introduce “exotic” versions of some if it’s existing watches. Three new Datejust 36 models feature unique palm leaf dial motifs. They have already been dubbed the “Jungle Datejusts”. The new Datejust 36 in Oystersteel and yellow gold features a golden fluted motif dial and jubilee bracelet. And the 2021 Cosmograph Daytona in 18ct white gold now comes with a meteorite dial mined from the heart of an asteroid. A trend she saw emerging across the industry is watches with a nod towards vintage styling. “We started seeing stronger customer interest in vintage emerge eight years ago; it’s taken the industry this long to design watches inspired by that and release them.” One might say: it’s about time.

StyleWATCH What's new from ROBERTO COIN Roberto Coin's jewelry has always been inspired by his deep knowledge of Italian art. The Venetian Princess and Navarra Collections are no exception. With its twists of 18karat gold strands and hand-picked diamonds forming designs are clearly rooted in that heritage. Yet the powerful motifs look thoroughly modern and are designed for everyday wear. To give you a sampling of this exquisite collection, we've chosen a few of our favorite pieces that can be worn over and over again — alone or stacked and layered for bolder impact.

Stack your fingers, stack your wrists Like the domes that sit atop Italian cathedrals, the pavé clusters that make up this repetitive design are meant to catch the eye — and inject a little glamour into daytime wear. Available in 18-karat white, rose and yellow gold — ideal for mixing and matching into a stack.

Understanding

Watch Speak

The world of watches is complicated. In fact the word for all that goes on inside a watch to make it tick is “complications.” Complications are intricate mechanisms that enhance a watch movement, also known as a caliber. They provide information other than simply keeping time. To try and uncomplicate the complications, here's a quick guide to some commonly used terms illustrated from our Patek Philippe Collection:

GUILLOCHÉ The decorative art of guilloché is one of the traditional crafts of watchmaking. It consists of engraving a dial or case with intricate patterns, from sunbursts to geometric shapes. It adds eyecatching flair to a timepiece and depth to the dial.

Ref # 5230R-012

GRAND COMPLICATION Grand complications include timepieces with the most complicated functions including minute repeaters, split-second chronographs and perpetual calendars. Ref # 5270J-001 (shown at right) also includes moon phases, leap year and day/night indication.

Ref # 5270J-001

MOONPHASE In the 16th century the need for a moonphase watch dial arose for travelers. A full moon meant a lighter sky and safety when planning an overnight journey. The moonphase mechanism consists of a 30-toothed disc. The disc has two gold-colored moons opposite each other on the disc, surrounded by gold- colored stars on a blue background. As the days pass, the moon will appear from the left side of the window. Ref # 5146G-010

POWER RESERVE

Ref # 5960/01G-001 (detail)

The first wristwatch with the power reserve mechanism was created by Breguet in 1933. However, this was only a prototype with only one watch assembled. Today certain models like the Flyback Chronograph (shown) have an extended power reserve of 45 hours. The power reserve indicator on the dial lets the wearer know how much energy the watch still has, like the gas gauge on your automobile.

CHRONOGRAPH A chronograph, the most common complication, is a type of watch with a built-in stopwatch feature. A separate hand can be started, stopped and returned to zero to measure elapsed time to one-fifth, tenth or even hundredth of a second. A chronograph typically has two to three subdials and a return- to-zero button, or pusher, on the side of the case. The top pusher starts and stops the chronograph; the bottom pusher resets it.

PERPETUAL CALENDAR

A perpetual calendar displays the date, day, month, an d year, automatically adjusting for leap year and the length of the month. It will only need adjusting for the rare years in which a leap year is due but doesn't take place, the next being the year 2100 and then 2400.

Most are privately owned while a handful are on loan from museums. The action happens on the 18th fairway at Pebble Beach Golf Links and the areas surrounding it. Spectators can look forward to a showcase that includes antiques dating back to the late 19th and early 20th centuries such as the Locomobile Steamer. Then there are hand-built cars from between the two world wars such as the Duesenberg from Indiana. Concepts for the future-- the next sleek Aston Martin perhaps-- are also part of the lineup. Numerous events take place throughout the week such as invite-only dinners and the Tour D’Elegance where most of the cars on display embark on the scenic and iconic 17-mile drive on Highway One. Pebble Beach Concours culminates in a competition where car industry experts vote for winners in different categories such as Best Antique Car. 2019 Best of Show winner 1931 Bentley 8 Litre Gurney Nutting Sports Tourer
