Issue number 316 of L'Orologio, June 2023, is available on newsstands. The cover of this month's issue is dedicated to the Spirit Flyback by Longines, a chronograph equipped with the so-called "flyback" function, patented by the St. Imier-based company in the 1930s.
Among the great classics, Breguet updates the Classique Perpetual Calendar, with a simplified and more contemporary look, and also inserts a retrograde month indicator in the new Ref. 7327. While Jaeger-LeCoultre reintroduces the chronograph in its iconic watch, the Reverso, paying tribute to the origins of this model.
Space for Rolex, starting with the Perpetual 1908, the new elegant response to the professional models of the crowned House and the analysis, in a collectors' key, of some of the most popular variants of the Cosmograph Daytona. Continuing with Tudor with the reinforcement of the identity of the Black Bay collection and the brand, also through the enhancement of its historical heritage.
The Buying Guide talks about chronographs, the most sought-after complication in watchmaking: 15 models priced under €10,000. While the technical in-depth look at one of the most sought-after watchmaking complications: the minute repeater.
And again: the Interstellar capsule collection, where Chanel reinterprets some of its famous models, including pixelated motifs, starry skies, phosphorescent effects and even a robot; the new and fresh "electric green" and "cream coral" colours of the dials of the Club Campus, the most casual watch by Nomos Glashütte; the Omega Seamaster Aqua Terra Worldtimer in new colours and new materials; the history and evolution of the Curv by Bulova; the 40th anniversary of the G-Shock.
In the Microbrand column, we talk about the young brand Byrne and its GyroDial that changes face every 24 hours, thanks to an unusual complication that turns the dial into a ballet. While for Journey in Manufacture, we "travel" to Germany to discover the atelier of Glashütte Original.
