The Spring/Summer 2018 season will give us our most colorful closets ever, with breathtaking accessories: jeweled sunglasses, dramatically shaped heels, Aladdin shoes, elf sneakers, and fidget spinners.
Many big brands have decided to go back to the 1980s for inspiration for the next season. Who would have thought that boots, sequins, pearls and stones would make a comeback? The standards have changed. We made a list of new trends for Spring/Summer 2018.
The reason I'm spending so much time talking about a virtually unobtainable unique link Baltic watch announced last summer is that it foreshadowed the very watches that we have in front of link us today. Baltic has just released a new collection, dubbed the Micro-Rotor. You'll no doubt notice the same Breguet numeral styling link seen on the Only Watch entrant.
The end of the video finished like any Rolex advertisement you might find link when watching a spot for the link PGA or Tennis—with a Rolex watch hovering into the frame. In this case, it would be easy to pass it off link as an easy-stakes showcase for the Day-Date, which is the watch that was displayed at the end. It was an Everose, 40mm, Roman marker variation with what appeared to be an Ombre or shadow rhodium-type grey dial.
What separates the platinum Split-Seconds Chronograph link from its Tonda PF peers, however, is the quality of the movement inside. What I had no link idea about in May 2017 is clear as day to me now – the caliber PF361 link is one of the finest, most underrated, and most visually interesting split-seconds chronograph movements being produced today.
For those who don't keep a Rolex anniversary calendar next to their bed, this year marks the 60th anniversary of the link Daytona, and link the 70th anniversary of the Explorer and Submariner. It's worth noting that Rolex doesn't always celebrate its model range's birthdays. But sometimes it does, link as it did with the Platinum Daytona, for example, in 2013.
Through the sapphire link caseback, you can see Patek's self-winding flyback chronograph CH 28-520 C. link It powers the central chronograph hand and the Aquanaut's signature 60-minute counter at 6 o'clock. It's a column wheel movement with a vertical link disk clutch. MSRP is CHF 64,000.
