Hot List: November 3, 2023
It’s a big week for timekeeping! On Monday, American sports fans celebrated the Sports Equinox with MLB, NBA, NFL, and NHL games all on the same day! The bad news? Days get shorter this weekend with Daylight Saving Time coming to a close 😔 While that means an extra hour of sleep, don’t get caught sleeping on this week’s hottest watches! ⏰
ZENITH DEFY SKYLINE 41MM
A Zenith boutique exclusive? At this time of year, at this time of day, in this part of the country, localized entirely within Feldmar?! You bet! The Skyline is steaming hot, and now the rare ice blue edition is available for a limited time 🧊
TUDOR PELAGOS FXD
How do you pronounce it? Do you say Pelagos? Or Pelagos? 🍅 Personally, we like to say Pelagos but no matter how you come at it, the Pelagos FXD with its integrated lugs and titanium construction is one of the most sought-after Tudors for good reason.
NOMOS METRO 33 SAGE
The newest Metro from NOMOS is a “sage” choice — and we’re not just talking about the dial color! In a reduced 33mm case size and with all the fixins’ that make the brand a fan-favorite, the in-house caliber, simple design, and a luxurious suede leather strap combine to make this an evergreen choice 🌲
OMEGA SPEEDMASTER “BLUE SIDE OF THE MOON”
Bringing together blue ceramic and bright gold, the “Blue Side of the Moon” is one of the most compelling pieces from Omega’s sprawling Speedmaster collection 🌝 Drawing inspiration from the dark blue hue of the night sky, this piece is a salute to the Apollo lunar missions of the 1960s!
PARMIGIANI FLEURIER TONDA PF FLYING TOURBILLON
There are luxury watches… and then there is this. With around 10,000 watches in our store, it’s hard to pick just one that represents a high-water mark amidst our inventory. That challenge got a lot easier this week with the arrival of the solid-platinum flying tourbillon from Parmigiani’s Tonda PF collection 🤩
ORIS DIVING DIVERS SIXTY-FIVE CHRONOGRAPH
Timing dives can be tricky business. A chronograph, when paired with a unidirectional bezel, can certainly make that task easier. And when it comes to measuring how much oxygen you’ve got left, this is a timepiece that might someday save your bacon 🥓
BREITLING AVENGER B01 CHRONOGRAPH 44 NIGHT MISSION
This week, Breitling unveiled the new generation of its famous Avenger line. One of our favorites has to be the 44mm Night Mission! With a carbon fiber dial and sparing red accents, this one is giving off major tactical vibes 🦇
TAG HEUER AQUARACER PROFESSIONAL 300
Managing to make a 36mm diver water-resistant to 300m is not easy. Putting diamonds on the dial? 💎 Well, that’s just a flex! Rounding it out, the Aquaracer’s pink textured color is frosting on the cake! 🎂
OMEGA SEAMASTER AQUA TERRA 41MM
Another week, another “Summer Blue” arrival! This week, we unboxed some new Omega pieces and were stoked to see the 41mm Aqua Terra on matching strap! When it comes to the “Summer Blue” collection, it’s wave on wave of winners! 🌊
RADO CAPTAIN COOK HIGH-TECH CERAMIC
Rado has quietly carved out a niche in the world of horology for one-of-a-kind ceramics. The High-Tech Ceramic material on display here is no exception! In an olive drab color, it gives the Captain Cook dive watch new life 🤎
BELL & ROSS BR 03-94 BLACKTRACK
Bell & Ross 🤝🏼 Iconic case design. It’s a match made in heaven! The new BR 03-94 Blacktrack takes on an all-new angular shape with bold lines and dark tones across the chronograph configuration. Halloween may have already come and gone, but this one’s already counting down to Halloween 2024!
