1. CHOPARD Alpine Eagle 41 XP CS Platinum.

A prestige ‘chassis’ for the sporty Alpine Eagle:

this new version combines an ultra-thin 41 XP

case and a refined platinum bracelet. The sig-

nature dial features a new ‘Shades of Ice’ blue

and is powered by chronometer-certified cal-

ibre L.U.C 96.42-L.

2. JAEGER-LECOULTRE Polaris Chronograph.

Elegant and sporty, this chronograph runs on

calibre 761 and features a sophisticated gra-

dient grey dial made from multiple layers of

lacquer and varnish – around 40 steps in total.

Paired with a beige canvas strap, it gives strong

gentleman-driver energy.

3. CHANEL Monsieur Superleggera Edition.

Part of the Monsieur line, with jumping hours

and retrograde minutes, the Superleggera mod-

els make their nod to the automotive world with

dials that echo vintage speedometers. They

house Calibre 1, Chanel’s first in-house man-

ual movement, inside ceramic cases.

4. CARTIER Pasha Skeleton Watch. With its

square railtrack and oversized Arabic numerals

blending into the mechanics of calibre 9624 MC,

this skeletonised Pasha loses none of its signa-

ture force – its visible ‘engine’ only strength-

ing its presence.

5. HERMÈS Arceau Le temps suspend. In

2025, Hermès reveals a glimpse of the mechan-

ics behind its emblematic Le temps Suspendu

module that’s mounted on the H1837 manu-

facture movement. With a desert-brown dial,

it offers a poetic escape from time itself far

from the beaten track.
