Any self-respecting watch buff should have clocked (cough) these blockbuster new releases and fresh editions by now. But if you’re late to the party or new to the field, then this will help you study up: Style’s pick of top timepiece news for September, helpfully organised by ideal wearing environment.
The Omega Seamaster Professional 600, also known as the “Ploprof” (from plongeur professionnel – French for “professional diver”) is one of the sturdiest divers’ watches ever made. First unveiled in 1971, the timepiece even accompanied famous oceanographer Jacques Cousteau on his deep-sea excursions.
The latest 2023 version, made in O-megasteel with a sun-brushed blue dial, stands out for its hefty case with the famous screwed-in crown and security pusher at 2 o’clock. The pusher features a ring in blue ceramic to match with the colour of the rubber strap and the watch’s dial.
If you’re looking for a sporty watch that still looks chic paired with a sleek suit, look no further than the Pelagos FXD Alinghi Red Bull Racing Edition from Tudor. The timepiece celebrates the Swiss watchmaker’s partnership with one of the world’s most famous yacht racing competitions, the America’s Cup. With its fabric strap in navy with red accents, and a very light case of carbon composite, titanium and stainless steel, the timepiece has all the markings of a true classic. A second version, the Pelagos FXD Chrono, comes with – what else? – a chronograph function.
The Reverso One Duetto watch with a fully diamond-set bracelet from Swiss watchmaker Jaeger-LeCoultre is an elegant marriage between fine watchmaking and high jewellery. With a pink-gold case and matching bracelet entirely set with diamonds, the timepiece also stands out for its technical prowess. The case features back-to-back dials displaying the time on both sides. The clever design allows the wearer to completely change the look of the watch by just flipping the case, making this the ultimate evening timepiece worthy of any occasion.
