From afar, the watch industry may seem unhurried. But every passing day brings about new timepieces from brands big, small, new and old.
Below, find about a dozen new releases from the likes of Seiko, Timex and others. Together, they show an industry that never stops ticking — and, centuries later, can still find the time to surprise you.
Best New Gear: This article is part of an ongoing series collecting the most important new watches, gadgets, pocket knives and more. Catch up on other releases.

Casio G-Shock Black and Bold Red Collection
For this collection, Casio reskins five classic G-Shock watches with a black-and-red colorway that isn’t just tough but looks it. The most novel of the bunch might be the GX-56 variant, as it now represents the only active GX-56 with a positive display. Prices range from $99 to $150.

Noah x Timex Lighthouse Watch
Timex and Noah team up once again, this time for a simple summer watch inspired by Brendon Babenzien’s childhood. A Long Island native, the Noah founder rose to fame as the longtime creative director at Supreme and now oversees menswear at J.Crew. Beyond the unique dial, the watch features a leather strap with gold-colored hardware. But the unspoken halo feature here is the watch’s oval case, resembling the Patek Phlippe Ellipse first released in the late 1960s.

Breguet Type XX Chronographe 2075BH
Breguet is one of the most respected names in watchmaking, but a century ago, the same family was a pioneering force in aviation. This new pilot’s chronograph celebrates the first Paris-to-New York City transatlantic flight in a Breguet 19 aircraft, flown in 1930. An engraving on the solid gold bridge of the manual watch movement depicts the aircraft and a map of the flight, visible through an exhibition case back.

Timex 1971 Velocity Reissue
Timex’s 1971 Velocity reissue is back with a new dial color and bracelet. The blue and orange color scheme is more fun than the black and burgundy or previous reference, and the stainless steel five-link “jubilee” bracelet is dripping with 1970s swagger. This revamped reissue will be available on June 17th.
