Unfortunately, we can’t possibly cover every single new watch that comes across our desks in as deep a fashion as we’d like. However, here’s our roundup of some of the coolest new watches released over the last couple weeks that we didn’t get to just yet. You won’t want to miss these!

Named after the Royal Marines’ Commando Training Centre at Lympstone in Devon, the C60 Lympstone is made from forged steel and carbon, giving it a badass look. Water-resistant to 600m, it features an automatic movement with 38 hours of power reserve and a 42mm case.

The Automatic Field Sport Timer builds on the legacy of the Sport Timer 1540 from the 1990s, this time adding an automatic movement. It features a 42mm steel case, 200m of water resistant, a matching steel bracelet (it’s also available on a strap) and Luminox Light Technology, good for 25 years of illumination.

Hublot teamed up with tattooist and creative director Maxime Plescia-Buchi on this all-black version of the Big Bang. Featuring a ceramic case and an in-house chronograph movement, it ships on a black rubber strap with a titanium deployant clasp. 

This one’s for the motorheads out there: The RNR Beach Runner features a dial handcrafted from the roof of a 1981 Land Rover. Limited to 552 pieces, it features a compelling design, a 40mm case and the Sellita SW200-1 automatic movement. 

If you’re the adventurous type who likes to back Kickstarter campaigns, check out Fugue Watches’ new “Fiction One” Mystery Dial. Available in two dial colors, it uses a pair of hands mounted on glass discs that appear to levitate above the watch face, making for a compelling look.

If you’re loving the integrated bracelet revolution that finally arrived in 2020, you should check out the new BR 05 Blue Gold. Powered by the Bell & Ross calibre BR-CAL.321 automatic movement, it’s made of 18k rose gold that combines with a blue sunray dial for a stunning effect. 

A stunningly beautiful new entry in the Bathyscaphe line, the Day Date Desert Edition features a dial inspired by the Nevada Desert. A limited edition of 500 pieces, it’s powered by the Blancpain 1315DD automatic movement and ships on a sand-colored sail canvas strap.
