Titoni Seascoper 300 Chronograph
Titoni’s chronograph version of its Seascoper 300 dive watch is a dark horse competitor to Tudor’s popular Black Bay Chrono, thanks to similar styling, like its screw-down pushers, and specs, like its COSC-certified automatic movement.

AnOrdain Model 2 Porcelain
After mastering enamel dials, beloved Scottish brand AnOrdain tries its hand at another artisan trade. The Model 2 Porcelain reportedly took three years of R&D. The result is a deceptively complex watch, complete with a true in-house porcelain dial and bespoke numerals.

Benjamin James Scarifour Ice Blue MOP
Benjamin James is a British watch brand founded in 2023. The small operation, run by its eponymous founder, has only released one design so far, but the rectangular integrated steel sports watch has been perfected with an icy blue mother-of-pearl dial. The 31mm by 40mm brushed steel case contains either a Ronda caliber 762 quartz movement or a Sellita caliber SW210-b hand-wound movement.

Louis Erard La Petite Seconde x 75th Anniversary Seddiqi
Swiss independent brand Louis Erard has teamed up with Dubai-based jeweler Ahmed Seddiqi for this special version of the former’s La Petite Seconde dress watch that honors the latter’s 75th anniversary. The watch combines the model’s standard Art Deco design with Dubai’s more contemporary landscape to create a unique design language the brand has dubbed “Neo-Deco.” The copper dial features an attractive mix of finishes, making it quite dynamic, and the usual Arabic indices have been swapped for Hindi ones (Dubai has a large South Asian ex-pat population who speak Hindi). Most notably, the hour and minute hands have been shaped to resemble Dubai’s famous Burj Khalifa, the world’s tallest building. Limited to 75 pieces, the watch retails for AED 11,900 (~$3,240).
