Hot List: November 1, 2024
DODGERS WIN!!! 💙💙💙 Here in L.A. we can’t contain our excitement about our boys winning the World Series. As we get ready for the parade, we’re ready to “Shohei” you some of our spookiest, Mookiest watches from Parmigiani, Omega, and more! Without further ado, let’s “Kiké” off this week’s Hot List!
PARMIGIANI FLEURIER TORIC PETITE SECONDE
Our boy Freddie Freeman may have gotten the World Series MVP award, but our MVP (Most Valuable Parmigiani) prize goes to the Toric! 🏆 With a gorgeous hand-wound movement visible via the expansive caseback, this gold dress watch is a home run!
OMEGA SEAMASTER PLANET OCEAN 600M
Which goes deeper? A Dodgers dinger, or Omega’s Planet Ocean? ⚾ With a depth-rating of 600 meters, this sturdy steel diver can stand up to the pressure of both the oceans… and the playoffs. Featuring a gray galvanic dial, this one is all business when it comes to performance.
SEIKO PROSPEX 1968 HERITAGE DIVER’S GMT SPB475
Ever since the Expos left Montreal, it just hasn’t felt right calling it the “World Series”. Fortunately, baseball isn’t alone in having something reserved exclusively for the US! 🕒 Seiko’s new America-only diver uses the high-performance 6R54 GMT movement with 3 days of power-reserve!
NORQAIN INDEPENDENCE SKELETON CHRONO 42MM
There’s nothing scarier than losing key players to injury early in the season. Playing with a skeleton crew ain’t fun! ☠️ But playing with the Skeleton Chrono from Norqain is just the opposite! Pairing the brand’s sporty design with gold accents, this one can go the distance!
OMEGA CONSTELLATION QUARTZ 28MM
When it comes to mastering the diamond, it’s a close contest between the Dodgers and the Constellation! 💎 Elegant and just 28mm in size, it’s the perfect lady’s piece! Our favorite aspect? The patterned dial emanating from the signature star!
GLASHÜTTE ORIGINAL SEAQ CHRONOGRAPH
Fun fact: Dodgers infielder Gavin Lux’s full name is actually Gavin Luxury. Just kidding 😝 In all seriousness, the newest version of the SeaQ Chronograph is one of GO’s most “lux” divers in the store! With high-performance specs and materials, this one is as pretty as it is powerful!
MÜHLE GLASHÜTTE 29ER
Reliever Michael Grove may not have played in October, but he was nonetheless a big part of the Dodgers’ staff this year! He’s also got the distinction of being the team’s “29er” 📆 Don’t believe us? Just look at the back of his jersey! At Feldmar, our 29er is, well, the 29er. With a cool minty dial, it’s sporty with style!
CASIO G-SHOCK MR-G MRGB2100D-1A
You gotta be tough to come back from a 5-run deficit. Tough as, say, Cobarion? The special alloy from G-Shock is cobalt-based and highly resistant to wear. After years of abuse, it will still look brand new, free of scratches, tarnish, or degradation! 💪
ACCUTRON HUDSON WHISKEY
Some things are just named perfectly 🤝 Pitchers named “Walker”. Healthy players named “Hurt”. Guys with high K-rates named “Outman”. Or extremely accurate watches by “Accutron”. This special version celebrates the brand’s connection with Hudson Whiskey, pairing up two things that are a match made in heaven.
GARMIN MARQ AVIATOR
Whether you’re dodging trolleys or thunderstorms, the Marq Aviator will help ensure you get home safe. One of the most powerful smartwatches ever made, this one can do it all, including log flights, track HSI courses, and show NEXRAD radar ✈️
JUNGHANS 1972 CHRONOSCOPE
In 1972, the Oakland Athletics won the 69th World Series. Nice. It was also the year of the Munich Olympics 👍 As the official timekeeper of the Games, Junghans has kept the flame alive with the 1972 Chronoscope. Made in Germany and limited to (you guessed it) 1,972 pieces, this one is a sporty quartz chronograph that oozes retro charm!
