A CLASSIC REBORN
Rolex
Cosmograph Daytona
Rolex released its new-generation Oyster Perpetual Cosmograph Daytona this year to celebrate the 60th anniversary of the original watch. In typical Rolex fashion, the model has received subtle updates, which include minor refinements to the case design and the dial. The biggest change comes with the updated calibre 4131 automatic chronograph movement that offers 72 hours of power reserve. The platinum 126506 Daytona is also the first Rolex sports watch in history to feature a transparent caseback.
TECHNICAL PROWESS
Grand Seiko
Tentagraph
For 2023, Grand Seiko expanded its Evolution 9 collection with its first mechanical chronograph, the Tentagraph. The highly technical timepiece gets its name from the brand new calibre 9SC5 movement housed inside the 43.2mm case, which has ten beats per second frequency, a power reserve of three days, and an automatic chronograph. The movement offers 72h power reserve, which is also the longest for a 5Hz chronograph.
TWIN TIME TRIUMPH
Jaeger-LeCoultre
Reverso Tribute Chronograph
The new Reverso Tribute Chronograph presents the perfect blend of Reverso's rich heritage and JLC's cutting-edge watchmaking. Offered in stainless steel and rose gold, the timepiece measures 49.4mm lug-to-lug, 30mm wide, and 11mm thick. The chronograph dial is skeletonised, exposing the brand-new calibre 860 and its Côtes de Genève-finished bridges. Beating at 4 hertz, the manually-wound movement has a 52-hour power reserve. It also displays the time along with the chronograph function on the second dial.
