Audemars Piguet CODE 11.59 Flying Tourbillon Chronograph

Diode SA – Denis Hayoun

Audemars Piguet’s controversial CODE 11.59 collection gets a complicated, high-end, avant-garde new model with a skeletonized treatment, flying tourbillon and flyback chronograph. Housed in a white gold case, it’s limited to only 50 examples.

Junghans Meister Terrassenbau

Junghans

German watchmaker Junghans introduces a pair of minimalist watches dedicated to a local landmark in the Black Forest: a building called the Terrassenbau, which housed the Junghans manufacture. The building’s terraced facade is depicted on the case back, but the watch is overall tasteful and classic, available in automatic and hand-wound versions.

Diameter: 38.4mm (auto); 37.7mm (manual)
Price: $1,695-$1,895

Grand Seiko T0 Constant-force Tourbillon Movement

Grand Seiko

Grand Seiko announced not a complete watch but teased with just a movement — of a type and complexity that’s unexpected from the brand. Grand Seiko rarely strays into complications, but the new movement not only features what’s considered the pinnacle of complicated horology, the tourbillon, but one of an even more rare variety using the principle of constant force. Keep an eye out for the watch that’ll house it.

Diameter: 36mm
Price: NA

Ulysse Nardin Executive Dual Time

Ulysse Nardin

Joining Ulysse Nardin’s Executive collection is a new Dual Time model, which shows a second time zone in 24-hour format at 9 o’clock. Don’t mistake it for a date window — the date is displayed digitally at 2 o’clock.

Diameter: 43mm
Price: $8,300
