Hot List: September 1, 2023
The days may be getting shorter and shorter, but the #FeldmarFam is still clinging to summer! ☀️ Whether you’re raging against the dying of summer’s sunlight or eagerly awaiting the arrival of autumn, we’ve got the hottest watches that’ll “leaf” you amazed! 🍂
ZENITH PILOT BIG DATE FLYBACK
Zenith hit it out of the park with the new Big Date Flyback! 👨🏼✈️ Part of the Pilot collection, these aviation-inspired pieces feature a pop of color that takes this piece to new altitudes!
ORIS X BRACENET AQUIS DIVER
Oris had quite a week, announcing several watches as part of the Geneva Watch Days show. Among them is the newest Aquis Diver, made in collaboration with Bracenet, an organization that cleans up abandoned fishing nets from the world’s oceans. Any guesses what the dial is made of? ⚓
GIRARD-PERREGAUX LAUREATO – 18KT PINK GOLD
Elegance. Class. Luxury. The Laureato is a lot of things but in pink gold, it takes on a whole new character 💗 The premium case seems to exude light, while the black onyx dial seems to absorb it. This watch? It’s an experience.
TUDOR BLACK BAY GMT 41
Speaking of watch shows, this opaline-dial GMT was introduced earlier this year at the Watches & Wonders show and has quickly become one of the top models in the Black Bay collection! Oozing class and functionality, it’s the perfect travel companion for journeys near or far 🆒
OMEGA SEAMASTER 300 – SUMMER BLUE
Another week, another Omega Summer Blue! This week, we unboxed a shipment containing several of the commemorative divers from the Summer Blue collection including this Seamaster 300! We’re not sure if it’s the textured sandwich dial or the unique hue of the bezel, but this watch makes us feel like making one last summer trip to the beach! ⛱️
FREDERIQUE CONSTANT MANUFACTURE CLASSIC POWER RESERVE BIG DATE
FC keeps the hits coming! Introduced this week, the dial features a moonphase, power-reserve, and big-date feature yet maintains an elegant simplicity 🌛 How do they do it!? Shop here.
SEIKO PROSPEX SNR053 & SPB419
Sneak preview! 👀 We got an early look at Seiko’s forthcoming SNR053. Part of the Prospex LX line, this spring-drive GMT is a US-exclusive coming soon to Feldmar! Held up next to the 62MAS-cased SPB419 with its hypnotizing blue dial, this pair of divers steals the show!
CARL F. BUCHERER PATRAVI SCUBATEC VERDE
Pairing a dynamic dial with CFB’s ultra-comfy strap material and a name that’s just plain cool, the “Verde” Scubatec lives up to the hype — and its moniker! 🥦
BVLGARI ALUMINIUM AUTOMATIC
Got a 10-year anniversary coming up? We’ve got the perfect watch for you. As everyone knows, the traditional gift to celebrate a decade of marriage is tin or aluminum. So as we search for a watch made out of tin, why not try the BVLGARI Aluminum on for size? Made from the brand’s special alloy of aluminum and titanium, this one gets a 🔟/🔟 from us!
