Hot List: February 28, 2025
Eat, drink, and be Mardi! We’re coming up on Fat Tuesday, and Scott is in full celebration mode. As head of Krewe of Feldmar, he’s ready to let the good times roll with hot watches from Grand Seiko, Omega, and more. Which one’s got your “float”? 💜💛💚
GRAND SEIKO HERITAGE SBGH295
Is this, dare we say, the perfect watch? Grand Seiko’s pursuit of flawless watchmaking is on full display with the SBGH295. With a dial inspired by the texture of frost, it’s got it all: a Hi-Beat movement that’s buttery smooth and Zaratsu polishing that makes it clear this is an elevated experience ❄️
OMEGA SEAMASTER DIVER 300M
We’re calling this one the “Groat” because it’s gray and because when it comes to dive watches, the Seamaster is the GOAT (greatest of all time) 🐐 Good thing it’s a handsome watch because the word “Groat” is decidedly… un-handsome.
ZENITH DEFY REVIVAL A3648
Orlok aint’ the only one gettin’ revived! 🧛 (that was a ‘lil Oscars joke for ya). The Zenith Defy Revival has a few things going for it like vintage styling that demands attention and the rarely-seen pairing of diminuitive case size and uncompromising water-resistance. At just 37mm, this one’s rated for 600 meters! Whaaaat?!
LONGINES HERITAGE CLASIC ULTRA-CHRON
We’re ultra-stoked on this Longines! The world’s first high-frequency diver with a 5Hz frequency and a depth rating of 200m, Longines re-introduced the Ultra-Chron in 2022. For 2025, it’s gotten another update: a carbon fiber case! 🆒🆒🆒
BELL & ROSS BR-05 CHRONO PATROUILLE DE FRANCE
Ratatoille? Non 🐀
Patrouille? Oui ✈️
This isn’t the first watch Bell & Ross has made for the aerobatic demonstration pilots of the French Air Force, but it might be the best looking! With two chronograph registers and a sky-blue dial, this one is all form and all function!
MERCEDES-AMG PETRONAS F1 TEAM IWC PILOT’S WATCH MARK XX
It’s here! In January, we noted the launch of the (deep breath) IWC Pilot’s Watch Mark XX Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS Formula One™ Team watch. After a short wait, it’s arrived at Feldmar and is even better in person! 🏁 With a 40mm titanium case that wears like a dream, this is the right way to kick of the 2025 F1 season (it starts in two weeks, in case you wanted to know.)
RESSENCE TYPE 9 GREY
Compared to its other models, Ressence’s new Type 9 doesn’t cost a ton of cents… yet it makes a ton of sense! 🩶 Leaning into the brand’s minimalist design language, the Type 9 is a monochromatic, straightforward watch featuring the famous ROCS system that puts a new spin on timetelling.
BELL & ROSS BR-03 ASTRO
Speaking of new spins on timetelling… what on Earth is this?? Bell & Ross’s new Astro uses celestial bodies to tell the time. Be mesmerized as the satellite (seconds), Mars (hours), and the moon (minutes) circle the Earth to show time in a whole new perspective 🌎
TAG HEUER PINK MONACO CHRONOGRAPH
Did we mention F1 is coming up? TAG Heuer is not only the new official timekeeper of the fastest sport on earth, but its signature Monaco watch is taking on new life! Announced during last season in conjunction with the Las Vegas Grand Prix, its black/pink/skeleton combo is one that shouldn’t work but somehow really, really does 💗🖤 We love it!
BULOVA ARCHIVE SERIES MIL-SHIPS
Another new release to arrive in store is the Bulova MIL-SHIPS! 🚢 Now that it’s here, we WILL-SHIP it to you if you order it 📦
BREMONT SUPERMARINE 300M DATE
Fun fact: many of Bremont’s steel watches make use of 904L steel 🔧 With a brighter polish than the industry-standard 316L steel, it’s also more resistant to corrosion and takes greater skill to work with. Put one of these on the wrist, and the difference becomes obvious!
