Located at an altitude of over 9,900 feet, on Mount Titlis in the Swiss Alps, the boutique is operated within a redesigned 1980s telecommunication tower. Designed by the world-renowned firm Herzog & de…]]> https://professionalwatches.com/chronomaster-sport-skeleton/ Fri, 05 Jun 2026 20:08:44 +0000 https://professionalwatches.com/?p=102801 Whether you prefer a standard, meteorite, or skeletonized dial, the Chronomaster Sport model is clearly one of the stars of the Zenith lineup. Originally announced at Watches and Wonders 2026, the Chronomaster Sport Skeleton represents the latest iteration of Zenith’s answer to the industry-leading Rolex Daytona Chronograph. Presented in the familiar 41 mm x 13.6…]]> https://professionalwatches.com/duometre-heliotourbillon-perpetual-elevates-jaeger-lecoultre/ Thu, 28 May 2026 16:20:22 +0000 https://professionalwatches.com/?p=102784 Driven by Jaeger-LeCoultre’s unqiue Duomètre architecture, combined with a triple-axis tourbillon, and a Perpetual Calendar, the Le Sentier-based watchmaker’s latest high complication is a sight to behold. The Duometre Heliotourbillon Perpetual elegantly packages a sophisticated 655-component, 89-jewel hand wound mechanical movement inside a 44 mm x 14.7 mm 950 platinum or 18K pink gold case,…]]> https://professionalwatches.com/swatch-botches-royal-pop-launch/ Mon, 18 May 2026 17:30:41 +0000 https://professionalwatches.com/?p=102750 Swatch is a multi-billion dollar a year Swiss-based company, which has a significant presence in the US, and around the world. That fact was put on full display this past weekend, when reports were rampart across the internet and Instagram (with loads of video evidence to back it all up) that chaos was ensuing across…]]> https://professionalwatches.com/swatch-x-audemars-piguet-royal-pop/ Tue, 12 May 2026 15:02:38 +0000 https://professionalwatches.com/?p=102685 Take one of the most hyped watches of all time, the Royal Oak, and market it as an entry-level bioceramic watch, akin to what Swatch Group did with the Omega Speedmaster via the MoonSwatch, and there’s a chance the results might be incredible. The Swatch x Audemars Piguet “Royal Pop,” is a design that’s not…]]> https://professionalwatches.com/royal-pop/ Tue, 12 May 2026 14:20:56 +0000 https://professionalwatches.com/?p=102716 Swatch and Audemars Piguet built up the anticipation around the Royal Pop, then, predictably, could not wait until the May 16th to make it official. The Audemars Piguet x Swatch “Royal Pop” is presented in Swatch’s proprietary bioceramic (plastic) material, with the unmistakable, and highly desirable Gerald Genta-octagonal-shaped case design. The case measures 40 mm…]]> https://professionalwatches.com/patek-philippe-6105g-001-celestial/ Sun, 10 May 2026 18:27:38 +0000 https://professionalwatches.com/?p=102647 Patek Philippe’s new Celestial timepiece features a massive 18K white gold case, coupled with an equally astronomical price. Unlike the company’s hyped Nautilus, which carries a legendarily high secondary retail market value despite having a basic movement, the 6105G-001 Celestial delivers actual horological innovations, that somewhat justify its sky high ask. Case With a space…]]> https://professionalwatches.com/hydroconquest-2026-commonwealth-games-limited-edition/ Wed, 22 Apr 2026 06:18:32 +0000 https://professionalwatches.com/?p=102613 Following the viral success of the HydroConquest last month, Longines wasted no time releasing another variant just one month later. The Hydroconquest 2026 Commonwealth Games Limited Edition takes a cue from its sibling Omega’s Seamaster Aqua Terra 150M “Turquoise” which costs $7,800. Both are dive watches, and both have a turquoise/teal gradient dial, but the…]]> https://professionalwatches.com/rolex-green-ombre-dial-datejust-41/ Fri, 17 Apr 2026 15:23:03 +0000 https://professionalwatches.com/?p=102576 Rolex introduced a special green Datejust as part of its Oyster 100 anniversary year. Dating back to 1926, the Oyster case is Rolex’s name for its water and dust resistant case, an area of watchmaking expertise they pioneered, and still lead in 100 years later in 2026. You’d think this would mean they’d come out…]]>
