Wheels X Wardrobe: The Outsider

Natural landscape is an overlooked inspiration for vehicle design as well as fashion.

Ulysse Nardin Launches the New Blast Watch

Ulysse Nardin has unveiled the Blast model as the latest introduction to their lineup. This new watch was inspired by the forces of nature like glaciers and eruptions of magma, and modeled after stealth jet fighters. Buy Now Buy Now Buy Now Buy Now The first thing you'll notice about this watch is the amount of transparency is offers. The open-worked body is made possible thanks to the UN-172 movement with the new automatic silicium tourbillon and a three-day power reserve. This movement is housed in an X-shaped cage, similar to the "X" design found in the Diver X, Freak X and Skeleton X. Resting above the X cage is a rectangular frame, a design cue found in many other Ulysse Nardin watches. At the 12 o'clock, the barrel is seen, while the flying tourbillon rests at the 6 o'clock. The Blast model was designed after the sharp lines found on stealth jets. Ulysse Nardin actually reworked their signature three-horned strap fixture to have a geometric design that mirrors the wings of a stealth aircraft. " width="680"> Ulysse Nardin is releasing the Blast watch with three different models: Blue Blast ($44,000), Black Blast ($46,000), White Blast ($46,000) and Rose Gold Blast ($54,000). Each comes in the same 45 mm diameter but don different colorways that were inspired by the elements.

MB&F x H. Moser & Cie. Announce Two New Collections

MB&F has teamed up with H. Moser & Cie. to launch two new collections, but their relationship has been going on for just about a decade. In fact, Precision Engineering, a sister company of H. Moster, has been supplying hairsprings to MB&F for the past several years. Because of the closeness between the two, they have collaborated in a way where we see a collection launching from each brand but they both feature the DNA from each other. First is the LM101 MB&F X H. MOSER from MB&F. This new timepiece features floating time and power reserve subdials, and it features H. Moser's double hairspring beats for the first time in an MB&F. It's available in four different fumé dials: Funky Blue, Red, Cosmic Green and – exclusively for our retail partners in Dubai, Ahmed Seddiqi & Sons – an Aqua Blue edition. Each of these are limited to just 15 examples. Learn More Next is the Endeavour Cylindrical Tourbillon H. Moser x MB&F from H. Moser. Just like how the new LM101 features DNA from H. Moser, this watch has been injected with MB&F DNA. This comes in the form of the titled dial that's used in MB&F's LM FlyingT and LM Thunderdome. It also features a cylindrical hairspring that controls the tourbillon. This one comes with five different colored dials, all limited to 15: Funky Blue fumé dial, Cosmic Green fumé dial, Burgundy fumé dial, Off-White fumé dial and Ice Blue dial. Learn More

Jacob & Co. Unveil New 'Scarface' Timepiece

Jacob & Co. have been hard at work creating a complex and magnificent timepiece that honors the film 'Scarface'. Within this watch are so many details that cannot be overlooked if you want to truly appreciate it. Called the Scarface Opera, it follows the path of the other Opera timepieces in Jacob & Co.'s collection. This path is one of music. Yes, this Scarface can actually play a song but not just any song. Jacob & CO. worked with NBC/Universal Pictures to be able to use not only the image of the title character Tony Montana but also the song "Bolivia" from the movie. The integrated Swiss music box can play the 120-note song when activated by the pusher at 10 o'clock. In total, there are 658 individual parts that make up the Scarface Opera, including an incredibly complex triple-axis high-speed tourbillon.

New HYT H0 Introduced in All-Black With Orange Super-Lumi...

If life were merely a series of photo finishes, a stopwatch would suffice. But it isn’t. Life is a stream of individual experiences, each one heightened by the impact of what went before it and the potential of what’s to come. The latest H0 timepiece by HYT is an invitation to reflect deeply on one’s own perception of time. It provides an enigmatic black canvas to visualize and honor the flow of existence. The authenticating signature is the content of the wearer’s life. This new member of the H0 family uses the power of monochrome to present a distraction-free view of fluidic time. HYT challenges the horological convention of affording midnight and midday artificial importance. Instead, a focus on the hour of six o’clock encourages contemplation of alternative turning points in the day. Wearers are also inspired to reflect on the importance they personally attribute to darkness and light. Mirroring the outline of the sun, orange Super-Luminova®, underneath the capillary, charts time’s flow. Perpetual motion is the story of everyone’s lives; its milestones are in human hands, even in the most restrictive circumstances. Visit HYTWatches.com Purity is the mantra of the all-black H0. In design terms this is expressed by its domed, sapphire crystal, which instantly facilitates different perspectives on the passage of time. The watch’s mission, to attract rather than distract, is echoed by the seclusion of the bellows behind smoky grey glass. Any visual punctuation of the monochromatic whole is carefully considered, down to the finest detail, from the Super-Luminova® touches on the flange numbers and hands, to the ultra-fine markers on the dial. Time is continually on the move. This timepiece refuses to do anything that may stand in the way of this energizing flow called life. Technical Specifications CASE : BLACK DLC STAINLESS STEEL WITH BRUSHED, MICRO-BLASTED AND SATIN-FINISHED FINISHES DIAMETER: 48.8 MM HEIGHT: 18.7 MM BLACK DLC STAINLESS STEEL CROWN DOMED SAPPHIRE CRYSTAL SCREWED CASE-BACK, SAPPHIRE CRYSTAL WATER-RESISTANT TO 30 METRES FUNCTIONS : BLACK FLUIDIC HOURS MINUTES, SECONDS, POWER RESERVE MOVEMENT : MECHANICAL WITH MANUAL WINDING, EXCLUSIVE CALIBER 28,800 VPH, 4 HZ, 41 JEWELS RHODIUM THINLY-SANDBLASTED BRIDGES 65-HOUR POWER RESERVE HYT’S EXCLUSIVE PATENTED MICRO-FLUIDIC MODULE: BOROSILICATE GLASS CAPILLARY TUBE, NANO-COATING INTERIOR MULTI-LAYER METAL BELLOWS TWO IMMISCIBLE LIQUIDS; ONE TRANSPARENT, THE OTHER ONE COLORED WITH A HIGHLY RESISTANT DYE THERMAL COMPENSATOR WITH DEDICATED BELLOW AND SPECIFIC LIQUID HIGH-TECH CERAMIC FLUIDIC RESTRICTORS INTERFACE: TRANSMISSION BETWEEN MOVEMENT AND FLUIDIC MODULE BY CONVERSION OF ROTATION INTO LINEAR MOVEMENT USING A CAM-FOLLOWER SYSTEM ISOSTATIC CONNECTION OF THE FLUIDIC SYSTEM GUARANTEED BY A TRIDENT DIAL : BLACK DIAL, ENGRAVED BLACK OPALINE MARKERS AND NUMERALS, LATERAL NUMERALS WITH ORANGE SUPER-LUMINOVA® ORANGE SUPER-LUMINOVA® UNDER THE CAPILLARY/LI> BELLOW APERTURE IN SMOKY GREY SAPPHIRE/LI> SANDBLASTED COUNTERS, BLACK MARKERS, BLACK NUMERALS/LI> BLACK MINUTE AND SECOND HANDS, ORANGE SUPER-LUMINOVA®/LI> STRAP : RUBBER, BLACK DLC TITANIUM FOLDING BUCKLE REF.
