Hot List: May 17, 2024

They grow up so fast! Seriously, where does the time go? (Hint: Feldmar Watch Company 🤣) If you’re graduating or have someone special in your life graduating, we have wonderful assortment of watches this week that will surely make the grade. We all have honorary PhDs on horology, so we’re well-credentialed to give you these picks. 🎓

IWC PORTUGIESER PERPETUAL CALENDAR

IWC PORTUGIESER PERPETUAL CALENDAR 2

This watch may be more worthy of when you win a Nobel Prize 🏆 Or maybe you just get this watch after you graduate to motivate you to get that early AM call from Stockholm. This true grail piece has an 18K gold case surrounding a fascinating perpetual calendar movement and moon-phase display made in-house in Schaffhausen.

TUDOR BLACK BAY 58 GMT

TUDOR BLACK BAY 58 GMT 2

This BB 58 GMT is one of the most anticipated releases from TUDOR this year, and we got one! Slightly thinner, lighter, and smaller than its regular Black Bay counterpart, this BB 58 has a striking black and burgundy 🍷 bezel that will turn heads on that first post-college job interview.

IWC PILOT’S WATCH CHRONOGRAPH TOP GUN EDITION “WOODLAND”

IWC PILOTS WATCH CHRONOGRAPH TOP GUN EDITION WOODLAND

Movie fans of a certain age will know the line, “Gentleman, you are the elite, the BEST of the best.” It’s from the flight school orientation meeting in Top Gun. This, along with “no points for second place,” are now part of the pop culture lexicon 🛩️ So Top Gun fans, naval aviation fans, or, heck, watch fans will certainly appreciate this uniquely-colored pilot chrono with green dial and green rubber strap with textile inlay.

ZENITH DEFY SKYLINE CHRONOGRAPH

ZENITH DEFY SKYLINE CHRONOGRAPH 3

Ok, college grad. How many tenths of a second are in a whole second? If you don’t know the answer, this watch will definitely help with its El Primero 3600 frequency automatic manufacture movement 🤓 Then again, if you actually need this watch to answer this question, maybe it’s time to go back to class…

BREITLING PROFESSIONAL AEROSPACE B70 ORBITER

BREITLING PROFESSIONAL AEROSPACE B70 ORBITER

Another play on tens here for you newly minted grads 🔟 This titanium chronograph houses the COSC-certified Breitling Manufacture Caliber B70, which is ten times more accurate than standard quartz and powers features including a 1/100th of a second digital chrono. Best of all, each special edition watch contains a living piece of history: A segment of the original balloon that was used in the first nonstop circumnavigation of the globe 🌎

FREDERIQUE CONSTANT MANUFACTURE PERPETUAL CALENDAR TOURBILLON

FREDERIQUE CONSTANT MANUFACTURE PERPETUAL CALENDAR TOURBILLON

For you econ majors graduating this year, I have a question for you: how is it even possible to package some of the most complex watch complications (tourbillon, perpetual calendar) in a watch that is so relatively compact and affordable? It truly boggles the mind, but FC pulled it off here 🤯

LONGINES HERITAGE CLASSIC CONQUEST POWER RESERVE

LONGINES HERITAGE CLASSIC CONQUEST POWER RESERVE

Wouldn’t it have been great to have had a power reserve meter of your own in school? You would have known exactly how much energy you would have had to write that paper or cram for a final or go out with your friends on a Sunday night. This Longines pairs a champagne dial 🥂 with an integrated black alligator leather strap along with a novel power reserve disc so that you’ll know exactly you much power your watch has left 🔋

ROLEX COSMOGRAPH DAYTONA 126500LN

Honestly, as of writing this, this panda Daytona is still available 🐼 But by the time you read this, maybe not. There’s only one way to find out, and that’s to call us…or email…or fill out the inquire form on the website. I guess that’s three ways, so maybe it’s back-to-school for me!

TISSOT SEASTAR 1000 POWERMATIC 80

TISSOT SEASTAR 1000 POWERMATIC 80

A powerful watch at an unbeatable value, this Seastar has a full 80 hours of power reserve. That’s over three days of power, making this piece “three-day-weekend-proof” 🤭 It’s also tough enough to withstand 300 meters-worth of water pressure. If only it could withstand similar pressure coming from your grandma to get a “nice” job 👵

MAURICE LACROIX PONTOS S DIVER DLC

MAURICE LACROIX PONTOS S DIVER DLC

The PONTOS S Diver is back and has been tested in the most extreme conditions. It’s ideally suited to underwater exploration 🤿 but is just as comfortable at an interview or the office. Cased in a sporty 42MM, this is a watch guaranteed to make you stand out. Contact us to inquire.

Born in Washington state, Tom developed an interest in photography during college at University of San Diego. There, he got started in music journalism, interviewing artists and taking photos at concerts. A life-long tinkerer and collector, it wasn’t long before Tom became fascinated with fountain pens and watches.

Those interests collided in November 2020 when Tom started at Feldmar Watch Company where he lives out every watch geek’s dream: photographing and writing about timepieces. When he’s not tinkering with his watch collection, Tom can be found traveling, biting his nails while watching PNW sports teams, and taking flying lessons.
