If ever there were a good time to compliment a brand on actually following watch consumer taste trends, it is with today's modern Tudor. For Baselworld 2016, the Tudor Heritage Black Bay Bronze reference 79250BM introduces the brand's first bronze case as well as an in-house-made Tudor movement into the popular Heritage Black Bay series. What's even better is that this new version of the Tudor Black Bay is actually different enough to compel existing Black Bay watch owners to add it to their collection.http://www.ablogtowatch.com/tudor-heritage-black-bay-bronze-79250bm-watch/

Fossil is announcing the release of two new smart watches at Baselworld 2016, following up on their first touchscreen smart watch, the Fossil Q Founder. The new Fossil Q Wander and Fossil Q Marshal actually reduce case size down from 47mm to 44mm and 46mm, respectively. The Android Wear pieces introduce another welcome change from the 13mm thick Q Founder - a slimmer case, which the brand claims is motivated by customer feedback. It always does well to listen to your customers, and Fossil seems intent on keeping their fashion-oriented identity while simultaneously trying their hand at the smart watch game.http://www.ablogtowatch.com/fossil-q-wander-q-marshal-smart-watches/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+Ablogtowatch+%28ABLOGTOWATCH%29

This year at Baselworld, Tudor is launching the fourth version of the Heritage Black Bay, its celebrated retro diving watch – this time in bronze, and with an in-house movement. It follows the charismatic red-bezel and blue-bezel versions from 2013 and 2014 respectively, and the Heritage Black Bay Black which was released in autumn 2015.http://www.salonqp.com/updates/tudor-heritage-black-bay-bronze-baselworld-2016/

If you ever want to truly and distinctly feel as though small horological gnomes are behind the design, production, and assembly of your high-end wrist watch, then something like the new-for-2016 Bovet Recital 18 Shooting Star is a good place to start looking. Few timepieces can combine such a sheer majesty of details, unconventional design, and complications in a package that is as much fantasy as it is a piece of functional, mechanical art.http://www.ablogtowatch.com/bovet-recital-18-shooting-star-wrist-watch/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+Ablogtowatch+%28ABLOGTOWATCH%29

Exhibiting for the first time in Baselworld since its reinvention as an independent watch manufacturer, Porsche Design introduced the newest of its revamped watch collections, the 1919 Datetimer Eternity, a timepiece the brand says was inspired both by Bauhaus design and by the aesthetic codes of the legendary Porsche 356 sports car.http://www.watchtime.com/wristwatch-industry-news/watches/bauhaus-comes-to-basel-the-porsche-design-1919-eternity-collection/

Yes, there’s Rolex, there’s Tudor, there’s Patek Philippe, there’s even Hublot, but the reality is, as far as Baselworld is concerned, there’s only one thing on most Watchuseeker’s minds, and that is, what is Casio G-SHOCK up to. Wonder no more.http://www.watchuseek.com/baselworld-2016-its-hammer-tone-casio-g-shock-mr-g-mrgg1000ht/

2016 marks the 55th anniversary for Sinn, and to celebrate, the hard-working German brand has released a small series of watches punctuating the occasion – including this Sinn 910 Anniversary chronograph from its Frankfurt Financial District collection. But being Sinn, and being a commemorative edition, this isn’t just another chronograph in the 900 series – no, this is a very special split-seconds chronograph that incorporates a ratchet, or column wheel lever for its actuation. Intermediate split times can be recorded with the actuation of the pusher at 8:00. Now, unless you’re looking at a vintage Lemania or Universal Geneve, column wheel-equipped chronographs are a relatively rare sighting these days – largely killed off by their own complexity to manufacture, which is what visually and functionally makes the Sinn 910 Anniversary so much more interesting.http://www.ablogtowatch.com/sinn-910-anniversary-split-second-chronograph-watch/

At Baselworld 2016, Seiko's very high-end arm Credor released a limited edition piece that features the very first tourbillon movement by Seiko. At first, I was a little surprised, but the fact is that tourbillons are actually hard to find in Japan, and the collectors there are generally pretty tepid on the tourbillon. With a new Caliber 6830 movement based on their Caliber 68, the Credor Fugaku Tourbillon Limited Edition watch is made by three of Seiko's Master Craftsmen.http://www.ablogtowatch.com/seiko-credor-fugaku-tourbillon-limited-edition-watch-first-ever-seiko-tourbillon/

If watch brands stopped coming out with products like this, I would probably stop going to Baselworld. I might not ever be in a position where I have a spare 280 grand lying around to buy a Ulysse Nardin Grand Deck Marine Tourbillon, but I am sure as hell happy at least a few people out there do. Otherwise, I would be missing the smile that comes to my face when seeing the sail ship-inspired dial of this fascinating mechanical timepiece in action.http://www.ablogtowatch.com/ulysse-nardin-grand-deck-marine-tourbillon-watch/

These days, if it says "Toric" and the watch is a Parmigiani, you can be mostly sure of two things. First, that the watch is more than likely a one-of-a-kind "piece unique"; second, that it is a minute repeater. Parmigiani Fleurier produced series "Toric" models in the past, but today, I believe, these high-end watches are almost exclusively produced as one-of-a-kind art watches to satisfy the brand's more "esteemed" clientele. Almost each year, Parmigiani comes out with at least one new Toric minute repeater watch, and for 2016, one of them is this Toric Kaleidoscope Prestige that is interesting to observe in action.http://www.ablogtowatch.com/parmigiani-toric-kaleidoscope-prestige-minute-repeater-watch/

Ball has released many versions of their Engineer Hydrocarbon watches through the years, all featuring the unique case sporting that memorable crown guard and bright, tritium gas tube-lumed dial. Unveiled at last year's Baselworld 2015, the Ball Engineer Hydrocarbon AeroGMT watch provides the legibility, construction and material quality, and masculine looks the line is known for and takes it a step further by introducing the first ever tritium gas tube illuminated bezel. I've now spent a couple of months wearing this watch, and I still feel like a kid when I see the normally mostly black-and-white-with-touches-of-yellow dial illuminate to a bright green, blue, yellow and orange dial in the dark. The amazing part of this watch is really how it goes from being totally monochromatic by light, to being gloriously colorful in the dark.http://www.ablogtowatch.com/ball-hydrocarbon-aerogmt-watch-review/

There is an art of communication that only recently was renamed thanks to social media. This newly dubbed but very old practice is the art of “humble bragging.” Humble bragging, or displaying false modesty, has been around for as long as people have wanted others to admire them (basically forever) because above all we are social animals.http://quillandpad.com/2016/01/28/why-the-manufacture-royale-1770-voltige-has-no-need-to-humble-brag/

It’s not often that I come across a fountain pen that I consider mechanical art, so I was really excited when the new Richard Mille Mechanical Fountain Pen was introduced at SIHH 2016 alongside Mille’s new timepieces. Equally thrilling was the fact that this pen was introduced as neither an “add-on” to the watch collection nor as an aside: it debuted front and center as it should have, right along with the new RM 50-02 ACJ Tourbillon Split Seconds Chronograph and the RM 67-01 Automatic Ultra Flat.http://quillandpad.com/2016/02/05/richard-milles-rms05-mechanical-fountain-pen/

The Angelus U20 Ultra-Skeleton Tourbillon wants you to forget about microscopic texts discreetly saying "tourbillon" on solid watch dials. With an "ultra-skeletonized" movement, the Angelus U20 puts everything on show, practicing levels of transparency scarcely experienced in the Swiss watch industry. A flying tourbillon, bridges in blue, and everything else you'd possibly want to see: it's all laid out in front of you. All it takes is a fair bit of engineering, a sprinkle of blue titanium, and some massive pieces of sapphire crystal.http://www.ablogtowatch.com/angelus-u20-ultra-skeleton-tourbillon-watch/
