“With the summer expression of Blue Book 2026: Hidden Garden, birds parade in a burst of colour; their nests, woven from yellow gold, diamonds and platinum, play with graphic contrasts. They dialogue with another art of weaving, that of raffia, whose strands inspire supple, geometric and luminous structures,” said Nathalie Verdeille, Senior Vice President – Chief Artistic Officer, Jewellery and High Jewellery, Tiffany & Co. “This collection celebrates the richness of coloured stones—precious flowers set against interlacing patterns of gold and platinum. The tropics bloom in the colourful volumes of the Blossom chapter. It is a triptych of the tropics where shapes, textures, and shades compete in their flamboyance.”

The summer launch captures nature in full bloom. Through intricate, sculptural

creations uplifting vivid gemstones, each story reveals a heightened sense of movement and energy, reaffirming the House’s mastery of transforming the natural world into expressive high jewellery creations.

In Paradise Bird, extraordinary creatures take flight through a series of imaginative brooches that celebrate creative freedom and the wonder of discovery. Reimagining the iconic Bird on a Rock, each fantastical bird is perched atop an exceptional gemstone, including Australian boulder opals and chrysoprase, American chrysocolla, Namibian purple chalcedony and Nigerian spessartine. Feathers unfold through pointillist arrangements of richly hued gemstones that echo the tone of each centre stone, while unexpected combinations—emeralds, turquoise and tourmalines, or paillonné enamel paired with faceted stones and diamonds—bring each creation to life with remarkable texture and vitality.

The Daisy story is a study in pattern and movement, where the illusion of symmetry gives way to nuanced individuality. Emerald-cut blue zircons radiate with crisp intensity, set against rich emerald cabochons in a striking colour pairing. Each petal is meticulously handcrafted in a fluid mesh composition, with sculpted textures illuminated by diamonds. Subtle variations in curvature and form animate the designs, evoking the gentle motion of petals stirred by a breeze while demonstrating the House’s exceptional technical mastery.

In Raffia, the woven textures of nature are reimagined through a dynamic interplay of colour and craft. Sugarloaf tanzanites—a Tiffany & Co. “legacy gemstone” discovered by the House in 1968—anchor the designs with their rich blue-violet hue, punctuated by vivid rubies and framed by interlaced strands of platinum and 18k yellow gold with diamond accents. Rope-like chains thread through each piece, a nod to Jean Schlumberger’s signature twisted motif, imparting distinctive texture and complexity. The result is a vibrant expression of movement and form that honours the House’s gemstone heritage.

The Blossom story is a tribute to Tiffany & Co.’s legacy of technical virtuosity and colour mastery, capturing the poetry of flowers in sculptural form. Exceptional cushion cabochon and oval rubellites evoke the heart of a lush bloom, while layered compositions create volume and dimension. Diamond-set gold flowers nestle among platinum petals with intricate pavé settings, forming unexpected arrangements that appear to bloom and sway across the skin. The designs offer a modern interpretation of a vibrant bouquet, defined by bold colour and inventive artistry.

The Petals story celebrates movement and delicacy, inspired by the interplay of ribbons and buds in Jean Schlumberger’s archival works. Cushion-cut peridots, selected for their vivid blue-green hue and exceptional saturation, take centre stage. Whimsical diamond-set ribbons gently embrace the gemstones, while hidden bud-like accents reveal subtle, imaginative details. Each curve is shaped to evoke the fluid motion of ribbons lifted by a soft breeze, creating a lively and poetic tribute to a magical garden.

Nathalie Verdeille’s latest Blue Book collection launches in three phases: spring, summer and fall. Debuting at a private gala, the summer pieces capture nature in full bloom—where colour, motion and craft brilliantly come together. This extraordinary collection reaffirms the House’s mastery of high jewellery, as well as its ability to transform the natural world into expressive creations defined by inventive artistry.

Originally created in 2020, Bremont’s first Stephen Hawking limited edition collection became one of the brand’s most iconic and celebrated historic sets of limited-edition models —an enduring tribute to one of the greatest scientific minds of our time. As Bremont embarks on a bold new chapter with the launch of the Supernova collection, it felt both natural and timely to revisit its partnership with the Hawking family, whose legacy continues to inspire curiosity, discovery and a deeper understanding of the universe.

Tim Hawking, Professor Hawking’s son, said: “This magnificent timepiece is a fitting celebration of my father and his work. He spent a huge part of his scientific and literary career exploring the mysteries of black holes and their role in shaping our understanding of the universe. His fascination with discovery and exploration led him to tackle some of science’s biggest questions, challenging long-held assumptions about space, time and the nature of black holes themselves. His groundbreaking ideas opened up entirely new ways of thinking about the cosmos and continue to inspire scientists and explorers around the world today.”

Space has always represented the ultimate expression of human ambition—where knowledge is tested against the unknown. For decades, Professor Stephen Hawking expanded those boundaries, redefining our understanding of black holes and revealing that even the darkest phenomena in the universe are not silent, but alive with energy and complexity.

His pioneering work spanning cosmology, space and time – is most closely associated with his groundbreaking research into black holes. Through his theory of ‘Hawking radiation’, he demonstrated that black holes are dynamic systems that emit energy, possess temperature and evolve over time. This profound insight transformed modern physics as we know it today.

The spirit of limitless exploration is deeply aligned with Bremont. Built on engineering resilience, precision and endurance, the brand has long created tool watches for those who push beyond boundaries—from the depths of the ocean to the edge of space. The Supernova Hawking continues that legacy: a watch informed by discovery, designed with purpose and built to endure in the most demanding environments.

Davide Cerrato, Bremont CEO comments: “Stephen Hawking reshaped our understanding of the universe, bringing the mysteries of space, time and of black holes into sharp focus. We are once again honoured to commemorate his life and achievements with an iconic timepiece – a contemporary tribute that reflects the ongoing influence of his work. Inspired by his pioneering insights into the behaviour of black holes, this creation embodies both their complexity and their quiet power. More than a measure of time, it is a tribute to human curiosity and the enduring pursuit of knowledge.”

The Supernova Hawking

First introduced in April 2026, the Supernova collection represents a significant evolution in Bremont’s product design and engineering. Positioned at the pinnacle of the brand’s collection architecture, the line is defined by its futuristic aesthetic, advanced materials and uncompromising construction, inspired by the forms and structures of modern space technology.

At its core sits the Supernova Chronograph—a contemporary integrated bracelet sports watch crafted from 904L stainless steel. With its angular geometry, architectural case design and emphasis on technical execution, the collection draws inspiration from spacecraft, space stations and the engineering challenges of space exploration.

The Supernova Hawking extends this design language into a deeply symbolic tribute. Crafted in 41mm ultra black DLC-treated 904L steel, the watch features a striking, multi-layered construction and a highly technical, geometric aesthetic informed by both space engineering and Hawking’s work on black holes.

Its intricate dial design takes cues from spacecraft solar arrays, featuring an interlocking, galvanic black grid design with triangular pathways drawing the eye inward. Meteorite sub-dials at 3 and 9 o’clock reinforce its connection to deep space, while at 6 o’clock, Stephen Hawking’s name appears alongside his black hole temperature equation a tribute to Hawking’s pioneering exploration of one of the universe’s greatest mysteries. Triangular applied indexes filled with white Super-LumiNova® (blue emission) and rhomboidal black gold hands ensure exceptional legibility, while maintaining the bold, geometric design language.

The design is further distinguished by a multi-faceted decahedral black ceramic bezel, angular case architecture and a complex sandwich-style construction that echoes Bremont’s signature Trip-Tick case design. Faceted ultra black tones and layered surfaces evoke the depth and mystery of black holes, reinforcing the watch’s conceptual foundation. Powering the watch is the chronometer-rated BC77 movement, offering refined finishing and a 62-hour power reserve.

Turning the watch over reveals a striking exhibition case back, featuring a swirling black hole motif through which the decorated rotor and movement can be viewed—an artistic interpretation of the very phenomena that inspired it.

The Supernova Hawking is available on either an integrated ultra black DLC 904L stainless steel bracelet or a black rubber strap, both equipped with quick-release mechanisms for seamless interchangeability. The integrated design creates a fluid transition from case to bracelet, reinforcing the watch’s streamlined, modern aesthetic.

A tribute to one of the most influential theoretical physicists in history, the Bremont Supernova Hawking is both a celebration of scientific discovery and a continuation of the brand’s pursuit of precision, endurance and exploration – honouring a legacy that forever changed how we understand the universe.

Citizen unveils its latest collaboration with Marvel: a limited-edition Spider-Man timepiece inspired by the character’s unmistakable comic-book style and featuring exclusive original artwork created for Citizen by acclaimed Marvel comics illustrator Adam Kubert.

Released ahead of Spider-Man Day on August 1, and as anticipation continues to build around Spider-Man’s return to theatres , the launch taps into the continued cultural momentum of Spider-Man across film, comics, merchandise and more. Leveraging one of Marvel’s most beloved Super Heroes, the collaboration reflects the growing intersection of storytelling, collectible culture and elevated watchmaking.

The collaboration also arrives during a milestone year for Citizen, as the brand celebrates the 50th anniversary of its proprietary Eco-Drive technology — reinforcing Citizen’s ongoing focus on innovation, artistry and cultural relevance through character-driven collaborations.

Known for his long-standing contributions to Marvel, Kubert designed an original dial composition exclusively for Citizen, translating Spider-Man’s signature movement and style into collectible design details. Inspired by a comic book panel brought to life, the watch features an embossed Spider-Man swinging through a stylised cityscape, elevated by luminous web detailing that adds depth and dimension to the scene.

“I wanted the artwork to capture the energy and movement that make Spider-Man instantly recognisable,” said Adam Kubert, Marvel Comics illustrator. “The goal was to create something that felt rooted in the visual language of the comics while translating naturally into a watch design — from the sense of motion to the small details fans will recognise. It was exciting to bring that world into a new format.”

Additional details reward fans with nods pulled directly from Spider-Man lore. The iconic sound of Spider-Man’s web-slinging action — “THWIP” — appears on both the dial and caseback, transforming one of the character’s most recognisable comic elements into a hidden collectible detail.

The watch is housed in a bold 43mm grey ion-plated stainless steel case and bracelet, balancing graphic impact with everyday wearability. Finished with a three-hand movement and date display, the release also includes a matching collectible pin designed to complement the watch and complete the collector experience. Limited to just 1,500 pieces worldwide, the collaboration marks a highly collectible release for both Marvel fans and watch enthusiasts alike.

Citizen and Hypebeast, the leading global platform for contemporary culture and lifestyle, unveil the Zenshin Hypebeast 20th Anniversary Limited Edition, a collaboration that taps into the shared space where innovation, design and modern culture intersect. Built from Citizen’s proprietary Super Titanium™, the Zenshin has become known for pairing everyday wearability with forward-thinking engineering, offering a case that’s at least five times harder than stainless steel while staying impressively lightweight on the wrist. For this release, that technical foundation meets Hypebeast’s two decades of shaping conversations around style and culture, resulting in a timepiece that feels as considered in its craftsmanship as it does in its point of view.

“From pioneering premium materials to developing our proprietary Eco-Drive technology, innovation has always been at the heart of who we are,” said Jeffrey Cohen, President of Citizen Watch America. “With the Zenshin Hypebeast 20th Anniversary Limited Edition model, we’re honouring that legacy in a modern way by pairing our Eco-Drive movement with a minimalist aesthetic. This collaboration is a tribute to 50 years of Eco-Drive Innovation powering moments by any light and a celebration of what’s possible when heritage and modernity merge.”

With a limited run of just 600 pieces, the Zenshin Hypebeast 20th Anniversary Limited Edition features a unique number on its caseback and a striking, monochromatic aesthetic. Its sleek design is realised with Super Titanium™ DURATECT Platinum, a surface-hardening technology that makes the titanium dial and bracelet gentle on the skin, scratch and rust-resistant and incredibly lightweight. The model features the most extensive application of DURATECT Platinum in the Zenshin collection to date. Each timepiece comes in a custom box, featuring a limited-edition authentication card mirroring the caseback number.

The design is punctuated by subtle, intentional details that signal its anniversary status. The custom Arabic numeral “20” at the four o’clock position commemorates the milestone, while the Hypebeast logo is integrated seamlessly beneath the hands and etched onto the caseback. With its 39.5mm case and integrated bracelet, the watch strikes a balance between a refined silhouette and a sharp, edgy finish, making it a versatile standout for everyday wear.

True to Citizen’s core values, functionality meets sustainability. The model is powered by Eco-Drive technology, which harnesses any light source – natural or artificial – for power, permanently eliminating the need for battery replacements.

Polaris: The Elegance of Jaeger-Lecoultre in Modern Sporting Style

A sporting heritage born in the 1960s: In 1968, Jaeger-LeCoultre ushered in a new era with the launch of the Memovox Polaris, a watch distinguished by its unconventional large case, which established it as an icon of diving watch design. A bold statement of intent from the Maison’s watchmakers, it expressed a spirit of bold ambition that continues to define the Polaris collection today.

When Jaeger-LeCoultre revived the historic Polaris name in 2018, it reimagined the modern sporting watch through an entirely new collection of timepieces designed for a dynamic modern lifestyle. Deftly balancing the practical functions and robust capabilities of a sports watch with Jaeger-LeCoultre’s distinctively elegant and timeless aesthetic, the Polaris collection pays direct homage to the Maison’s eponymous diving watches of the late 1960s.

Powered by high-performance calibres and distinguished by instantly recognisable design codes, the Polaris timepieces embody the adventurous character of their predecessors while reinterpreting their vintage appeal through a distinctly contemporary lens. The result is a collection of versatile modern classics.

New Compact Proportions Enhance Versatility

Precision in every detail: As tastes and lifestyles evolve, Jaeger-LeCoultre revisits the anchor model of the Polaris collection – the Polaris Date – introducing it in a more compact, 40 mm steel case. As well as reducing the diameter of the steel case, the Maison has slimmed it down to a thickness of 12.9 mm, preserving the ideal proportions of its bold and purposeful design while enhancing comfort, wearability and versatility. The Polaris Date is presented on a blue canvas strap, fitted with a double-folding buckle.

The Polaris collection’s distinctive aesthetic is anchored by its cases, which are distinguished by taut lines, glass-box crystals complemented by narrow bezels, a dynamic mix of brushed and polished surfaces and dual crowns.

Positioned off-centre, the second crown adjusts the internal rotating bezel, enabling a countdown of pre-set elapsed time – a practical function derived from the diving watch ancestry of the Polaris collections. The steel case is water-resistant to 20 bar.

Performance inside and out: The sapphire crystal case-back reveals the finely finished automatic movement, Calibre 899. Exemplifying the pragmatic character of the Polaris collection, it combines mechanical elegance with high performance and offers a power reserve of 70 hours – highly practical for life on the move. Like the movement of every Jaeger-LeCoultre timepiece, it was designed, produced and assembled entirely under the Maison’s own roof.

A Signature Dial

The dial of the new Polaris Date retains all the signatures that distinguish the collection.

A distinctive architecture based on concentric circles; assertively designed Arabic numerals and elongated trapezoid indexes; and skeletonised hands – with all indications coated in Super-LumiNova® for optimum legibility in low light conditions.

The lacquering of the dials is a lengthy and exacting process. After the grained and sunray finish are crafted, 7 layers of coloured lacquer and 35 layers of translucent lacquer are successively applied and finally meticulously polished by hand to create the mesmerising double gradient dial with profound depth.

The new, more compact dimensions of Polaris Date elevate its confident modernity and relaxed elegance while underlining its sporty and purposeful character, anchoring it as a contemporary classic perfectly suited to life’s everyday adventures.

Citizen introduces its first-ever Disney Moana timepiece, a one-of-a-kind design inspired by the adventurous spirit, resilience and connection to nature that have made Moana a global cultural icon ahead of the highly anticipated new chapter in the franchise.

Inspired by the natural light and motion of the sea, the timepiece features exclusive original dial artwork created specifically for Citizen, blending flowing wave motifs, shimmering crystal accents and luminous mother-of-pearl details designed to evoke sunlight reflecting across open water. The design continues Citizen’s approach to artistic dial innovation through imaginative collaborations with Disney, bringing character-driven storytelling into collectible watchmaking through thoughtful materiality and elevated detailing.

The watch is also powered by Citizen’s proprietary Eco-Drive technology, which is celebrating 50 years of Innovation in 2026 and uses any light source, whether artificial or natural, to power a watch. A 36mm gold-tone stainless steel case is paired with a rich teal leather strap inspired by oceanic tones, while a three-hand movement and date display balance everyday versatility with elevated craftsmanship.

The limited-edition release is presented in a premium collectible box set inspired by the world of Moana, designed to extend the storytelling experience beyond the timepiece itself. Each set also includes an exclusive commemorative pin as a keepsake for Disney fans and collectors alike.

The Thalia Sodi ™ x Anna Zuckerman Collection was launched on 1/6/2026, available exclusively through Anna Zuckerman boutiques and at AnnaZuckerman.com.

Zuckerman, who has spent over 25 years quietly disrupting the idea that luxury is a privilege rather than a right, was equally clear about the intention: “This collection is fearless, colourful, contemporary and full of life. It was designed for today’s modern woman who wants luxury, glamour and versatility without waiting for someone else to buy it for her.”

That message, “Buy it yourself,” runs through every piece like a through-line. The vivid gemstone hues, the bold silhouettes, the designs built for layering and stacking and mixing, this is not jewellery made to sit in a box for that special occasion. It’s jewellery made to be worn now, by you, “just because.”

Founded in Miami with a mission to democratise fine jewellery, Anna Zuckerman has long understood that the desire for beauty is universal even when access isn’t. Diamond Crystalline® technology is the brand’s answer to that gap: it is technically sophisticated, visually indistinguishable from the real thing, and priced for the woman who shouldn’t have to choose between her rent and her radiance.

For international superstar and Queen of Latin pop, the collaboration is a natural extension of how she has always moved through the world: on her own terms, in full colour, without apology. She has always dressed the way she wanted. She has always believed women deserve more. This collection is simply the latest, most sparkling proof of that.

“I’ve always believed that fashion and luxury should be accessible to everyone. With this collection, I wanted to create pieces that make every woman feel radiant, confident and special, without compromising on quality or style,” says Thalia.

Set against the vibrant backdrop of New York City, the campaign captures intimate, everyday moments, each thoughtfully elevated by the subtle touch of Gabriel & Co. jewellery. Through this lens, the campaign highlights the beauty found in life’s quiet details and the power of meaningful connection.

“Jessica brings an authenticity and grace that aligns seamlessly with our brand, making her the perfect choice to bring our vision to life,” says Dominick Gabriel, Chief Design Officer and Co-Founder, Gabriel & Co. “The campaign truly reflects our belief that love is built slowly with intention, attention, and time which is the spirit behind all of our designs.”

At the heart of the campaign is Gabriel & Co.’s guiding philosophy, Love, Perfected. This philosophy remains the main goal for the brand in every endeavour, which can be seen through a commitment to crafting jewellery that resonates on a personal level and honours life’s most cherished moments. Alba’s presence within the celebrity endorsement campaign reinforces this message, showcasing pieces that complement both special occasions and the beauty of daily life.

“Jewellery has always been such a personal expression for me, it’s not just about how something looks, but what it represents. I chose to work with Gabriel & Co. because they bring this to life in such a genuine way, creating pieces that celebrate both everyday beauty and life’s biggest milestones. It becomes part of your life, your memories and the moments you want to hold onto,” says Jessica Alba, the face of the campaign.

This iconic pairing and celebrity endorsement marks a significant milestone for Gabriel & Co. as the brand continues to evolve and expand its reach, connecting with a broader audience through storytelling that is both aspirational and relatable.

For much of the 20th century, wristwatch design was shaped by a cultural preference for restraint. Above all, watches were instruments of precision and markers of refinement, designed to sit discreetly on the wrist. Men’s watches typically measured between 30 and 34 mm, reflecting ideals of elegance and proportion, while women’s timepieces were often conceived as intimate, jewellery-like creations, sometimes even smaller. The Reverso, created in 1931, embodies this philosophy. Its rectangular case, born from a functional brief, naturally lent itself to compact dimensions, becoming a canvas for both masculine sophistication and feminine expression. Over time, evolving lifestyles and aesthetics led to a gradual increase in watch sizes, favouring a stronger presence on the wrist. Today, however, a renewed sensitivity to comfort, authenticity and timeless design is bringing smaller proportions back into focus, reconnecting with a more classical vision of watchmaking. As a tribute to this heritage, Jaeger-LeCoultre revisits some of the most emblematic Reverso models through a selection of smaller, more refined interpretations.

• Reverso Classic Small Monoface: 2 versions are available – one in steel with an alligator strap or steel bracelet and one in 18k pink gold (750/1000) with an alligator strap.
• Reverso Classic Small Duetto: 3 versions are available – two in steel, one set with diamonds on the verso, with an alligator strap or steel bracelet with an additional alligator strap and one set with diamonds on both sides, with a blue alligator strap or steel bracelet, offered with an additional alligator strap. The last version is offered in 18k pink gold (750/1000), set with diamonds on the verso, available with an alligator strap or 18k pink gold (750/1000) bracelet with an additional alligator strap.
• Reverso Classic Monoface ‘Origin’: With their gadroons set with diamonds on the recto, presented in steel with an interchangeable blue alligator strap or with a steel bracelet.
• Reverso Tribute Duoface Small Seconds: Crafted in steel, featuring an interchangeable strap in black calfskin and grey canvas with a double-folding buckle.

Signature Design Codes, Subtly Refined

Immediately recognised by their swivelling case and Art Deco lines, both Small models are presented in steel or 18K pink gold (750/1000). On the front dials, the Reverso Small models’ timeless signatures are maintained: a guilloché sunray pattern in the central rectangle appears to extend seamlessly into the markings on the chemin de fer minutes track. The textured pattern and vertically brushed dial forms the backdrop to the crisply defined Arabic numerals.

The Reverso Classic Small Monoface is complemented by alligator straps: the 18k pink gold (750/1000) version comes with taupe alligator and the one in steel with blue alligator strap or the option of a polished five-row steel bracelet. Adding a subtle touch of refinement, the ‘JL’ logo on the dial is now applied rather than transfer printed.

As with all Monoface models, the blank metal caseback invites personalisation with engraving or lacquer work, to celebrate a treasured memory or express individual style – an element that the owner can keep private or display to the world, according to which way the case is turned.

Offered in steel or 18k pink gold (750/1000), the Reverso Classic Small Duetto features a subtly modernised dial with new tone-on-tone applied numerals and ‘JL’ logo creating a harmonious and nuanced three-dimensional effect. The reverse dial also gains a sleeker and more contemporary look: the absence of numerals for 12 and 6 amplifies the sunrayed effect of the circular centre, while applied ‘double sunray’ indexes reinforce the pattern of the guilloché outer section. Underlining the Maison’s commitment to craftsmanship, more than 20 steps are required to create the two dials. While the Reverso Duetto traditionally features diamond-set gadroons on the reverse side of the case only, a new ‘Double Set’ option in steel is set with brilliant-cut diamonds on both sides of the case.

The Reverso Classic Small Duetto is offered with a strap package comprising a blue alligator strap and a steel bracelet (steel case) and a taupe alligator strap and 18k pink gold bracelet (pink gold case). All models feature Jaeger-LeCoultre’s signature interchangeability system, enabling an effortless and rapid change of style with fingertip operation.

Introduced in 2025, the Reverso Classic Monoface ‘Origin’ pays homage to the proportions and aesthetics of the first feminine Reverso, created in 1931. A new interpretation features diamond-set gadroons, enhancing the play of light on the dial finishes and case. Presented in a steel case, with the option of a blue alligator strap or polished steel bracelet, it features the unique attribute of all Monoface models: a blank metal caseback that can be personalised with engraving or lacquer. It can be worn in two ways: with the decoration hidden and the dial showing or with the case flipped over and worn like a piece of jewellery, with the time hidden until the wearer wishes to see it.

For 2026, the Reverso Tribute Duoface Small Seconds has been reinterpreted with smaller case dimensions of 42.9 mm x 25.5 mm, creating a new ‘medium’ size that is closer to the original Duoface models of 1994. With this return to a classical size, the silvered-coloured opaline front dial is complemented by a blue-grey reverse dial that displays the second time zone – a colour new to the Duoface line that is enhanced by sunray satin-brushing and the polished steel of the case. Fitted with the manually wound Calibre 854, the Reverso Tribute Duoface Small Seconds is presented with a black calfskin, designed by Casa Fagliano, featuring Jaeger-LeCoultre’s signature interchangeability system for an effortless change of style.

Enhanced Reliability and Precision

Among the 1,400 calibres designed and produced in-house by the Manufacture Jaeger-LeCoultre since 1833, many have achieved notable longevity, thanks to their reliability and precision. However, even on these ‘pillar’ movements, the Manufacture’s engineers are constantly making improvements in a quest for enhanced performance.

The new versions of Calibre 846 – fitted in the Reverso Classic Small Monoface – and Calibre 844 in the Reverso Classic Small Duetto represent a total of 16 changes to the mechanisms. Among them, a new silicon escapement increases the movement’s efficiency by reducing friction, while also enhancing robustness and precision by reducing the negative impact of magnetism. With an increase in the barrel diameter – achieved without increasing the overall size of the calibre – power reserves have increased from 38 hours to 50 hours.

The latest versions of these four emblematic Reverso models perfectly represent Jaeger-LeCoultre’s commitment to safeguarding the collection’s unmistakable identity, evolving in new aesthetic directions that keep it eternally modern and constantly improving mechanical performance and precision.

Two originals. One DNA

The 911 GT3 S/C is defined by its ultimate motorsport spirit, perfectly balanced with everyday practicality. With stick shift and a high-revving engine, it combines maximum dynamics with endless fun-to-drive. Its high-revving, naturally aspirated engine and uncompromising lightweight design make the 911 GT3 S/C the lightest, most dynamic open 911, embodying pure motorsport DNA on track and street alike. Its horological twin: the 911 GT3 S/C Chronograph. Born from a joint development with the car, the two are inseparably linked.

Consistent lightweight construction

Lightweight construction does not automatically mean minimalism. True to the 911 GT3 S/C, the accompanying chronograph embodies Porsche’s distinctive approach to lightweight design: the case and pushers are available in either glass bead-blasted titanium or titanium with black titanium carbide coating. The same applies to the bezel, which is available with a pulsometer, tachymeter or minute scale.

Motorsport design for the wrist with customisation options

A distinctive design feature is the GT dial, developed specifically for the 911 GT3 chronograph, with its characteristic hexagonal pattern that echoes the hexagonal air intakes on the car. The GT dial and the optionally available “RS” dial in a carbon-like look also echo the lightweight design aesthetic. Both versions are protected by a sapphire crystal with sevenfold anti-reflective coating on both sides and a highly scratch-resistant hard coating. The clean design of the indices, a yellow ring, and black rhodium-plated hour and minute hands with Super-LumiNova® coating ensure optimal readability. This design is echoed on the 911 GT3 S/C’s instrument panel, as the Sport Chrono GT module—developed by Porsche Design for the Porsche GT models—mirrors the chronograph’s aesthetic. The look of the tachometer and the sporty totaliser at 6 o’clock are also perfectly aligned. The chronograph hands are available in Performance (white), Essence (black), and GT (yellow). Matching the vehicle paint, the colour ring around the dial is available in all 911 GT3 S/C exterior colours as well as the shades from the “Paint to Sample” programme. Further references to motorsport and the home of the 911 GT3 S/C are found in the small seconds at 9 o’clock, featuring the “911 GT3” lettering, a checkered-flag design, and the inscription “Born in Flacht”—the location of the Porsche Development Center.

High-performance on the inside. “Street Style” on the outside

The case back, made of sevenfold anti-reflective, hard-coated sapphire crystal, reveals the Porsche Design calibre WERK 01.200 with COSC certification and flyback function. It allows a running timing measurement to be stopped, reset and restarted instantly at the push of a button. The standout feature, both technically and visually, is the “911 GT3 S/C Rotor”, precisely modelled on the car’s wheel design and available in Brilliant Silver, Dark Silver, California Gold, and Black (satin finish). It is completed with the black rotor cap with the two-tone Porsche crest. The arch housing the sapphire crystal is crafted from glass bead-blasted titanium or titanium with a black titanium carbide coating and can be personalised with a laser engraving of up to twelve characters. Owners of the 911 GT3 S/C with the Street Style Package are furthermore entitled to exclusive, specially designed highlights. The Package embodies a look that stands out from the norm, distinguished by the sleek, contemporary pared-down contour of the Porsche crest. In Pyro Red, it not only gives the wheel hub covers a distinctive touch but also enhances the chronograph’s rotor cap.

Personalisation with character

The strap also offers a variety of options for personalisation. Made from genuine Porsche vehicle leather and stitching, it can be customised to match the configuration of the car’s interior. An optional “GT3” embossing at 6 o’clock reinforces the link between the sports car and the timepiece. The calfskin leather straps with a double-folding titanium clasp (matching the case finish) are available in three sizes and can be easily exchanged thanks to the quick-change mechanism. In addition, Porsche Design offers a titanium bracelet with a fine adjustable titanium folding clasp, available in case-matching finishes: glass-bead blasted or black titanium carbide-coated. Exclusively for owners of the 911 GT3 S/C with Street Style Package, there is a matching two-tone leather strap in Guards Red and Slate Grey. If desired, this leather strap can also feature a “GT3” embossing at 6 o’clock.
