Royal Oak Offshore Tourbillon
Chronograph
The Royal Oak Offshore collection strides into
the future with two new series, each limited
to 50 pieces that reimagine the Royal Oak
Offshore Tourbillon Chronograph. The 45 mm
case – a first for the Royal Oak Offshore – gives
these pieces a very robust feel. It houses a
brand-new technical movement design that
embodies Audemars Piguet’s expertise and
bold approach. Used previously in Royal
Oak Offshore Tourbillon Chronographs, the
movement has been entirely reimagined
exclusively for the occasion. With a new
architectural construction featuring sandblasted
titanium bridges and satin-brushed chamfered
edges, the movement looks as if it were
suspended from the bezel.

The Clifton Club, Burt Munro Tribute Limited Edition
This limited edition automatic chronograph features a
number of special details designed to commemorate the
extraordinary achievement of Burt Munro. Immediately
apparent is the large, yellow number 35, Munro’s
lucky number, in the chronograph seconds counter.
Next, the “Indian Red” colour of the calfskin strap
evokes the deep vermillion colour that is identified
with the Indian Motorcycle Company, and the colour
of the Munro Special. The dial itself is silver-coloured
with sandblasted and snailed finishes, meant to mimic the
surface of the Bonneville Salt Flats, where the record was set.
The counterbalance of the chronograph seconds hand is the
immediately recognizable Indian “I.” The 44mm stainless steel
case has a tachymeter scale on the bezel, with the record, 184mph,
highlighted on it. The Clifton Club Burt Munro Tribute is limited to
1967 pieces, recalling the year that Munro set his iconic record.suspended from the bezel.

CARTIER
The New Santos
In the age of engineering, at the dawn of the 20th century, its revolutionary design and
usage echoed the spirit of speed and progress. Its distinctive aesthetic symbolised the
modern era. The new Santos de Cartier watch stays true to this original philosophy
by reflecting the innovative, ever-changing spirit of its own age. The design of the
bezel has been updated to favour the synergy between the lines of the case and the
strap. These sleeker lines accentuate the stylistic dynamic of the watch. The watch
is designed for a perfect fit on the wrist and has been precisely
weighted and measured to optimise comfort and ergonomics.
The new strap caters to modern lifestyles and ease of
movement, and can be tailored to suit any occasion according
to the choice of materials and colours. Available in steel, gold,
calfskin or alligator skin, all versions are interchangeable
thanks to the Cartier QuickSwitch system (patent
pending) hidden under the strap.BAUME & MERCIER
Clifton Baumatic
This elegant and contemporary steel timepiece
with a 40 mm case and a refined white dial with
a porcelain finish, making it truly of its time as
well as a watch for the future. More importantly,
it is powered by a revolutionary mechanical
self-winding calibre: simple, powerful and
accurate, developed in-house in collaboration
with the ValFleurier Manufacture and the R&D
team at the Richemont Group, this self-winding
12.5” new-generation movement has been
named the Baumatic (cal. BM12-1975A). The
120-hour (five-day) power reserve is achieved
thanks to the optimized alloy used for the barrel,
the escapement with Powerscape technology,
and the Twinspir silicon hairspring. These same
elements help ensure an accuracy of between
four seconds slow and six seconds fast per day.
