Introduction:
Watchers and Wonders 2020 has come to a close, and while it may not have been the best year for watch releases, there were a few that stood out. In this article, we will be highlighting three of Federico Talks Watches’ personal favorite releases from the event.
Tudor Black Bay Burgundy with Jubilee Bracelet:
The Tudor Black Bay Burgundy with Jubilee Bracelet is a sports watch that was released at Watchers and Wonders 2020. This watch features a classic black bay burgundy with a new movement that boasts a 70-hour power reserve. It is also meta certified, which is an interesting feature. The Jubilee bracelet and Neo vintage styling add to the overall look and feel of the watch. The thinner case, which was a major complaint of previous Black Bay models, has been addressed in this release.
As someone who has owned a Tudor Black Bay in the past, I can attest to the fact that they are fantastic everyday watches. The addition of the Jubilee bracelet and upgraded movement only adds to the appeal of this watch. Overall, the Tudor Black Bay Burgundy with Jubilee Bracelet is a winner in my book.
Cartier Santos Dumont Skeleton:
The Cartier Santos Dumont Skeleton is a high horology watch release that may not be for everyone but is certainly impressive nonetheless. The thin case is historically tied to the first-ever wristwatch that Cartier invented with the Santos Dumont. The blue inlay on the watch is something that is not seen every day and adds to the overall aesthetic of the watch. The skeletonized movement is also a sight to behold.
As someone who has worked for Cartier in the past, I have a soft spot for the brand. The Cartier Santos Dumont Skeleton is a prime example of how the brand can pull out all the stops in terms of high horology. The flying machine on the micro rotor is a nice throwback to Alberto Santos Dumont, who ordered the watch from Louis Cartier because he needed a wristwatch while flying. Overall, the Cartier Santos Dumont Skeleton is an impressive watch that deserves recognition.
Chopard LUC 1860:
The Chopard LUC 1860 is a re-release of a watch that Federico Talks Watches not only loves but used to own. This watch is a beautiful dress watch that comes in stainless steel with a salmon dial, which is a personal favorite. The special movement, the 186 movement with the Geneva seal, swan neck regulator, and micro rotor, is a standout feature that sets this watch apart from others.
The proportions of the case are perfect for a dress watch, and the salmon dial only adds to the overall appeal. While some may argue that the price point of $23,000 is steep, taking a look at the movement shows exactly where the money went. The Chopard LUC 1860 is a stunning watch that is worth the investment.
Conclusion:
In conclusion, Watchers and Wonders 2020 may not have been the best year for watch releases, but there were a few that stood out. The Tudor Black Bay Burgundy with Jubilee Bracelet, Cartier Santos Dumont Skeleton, and Chopard LUC 1860 are three watches that deserve recognition. Each of these watches has standout features that make them unique and appealing to watch enthusiasts. Ultimately, it is up to the individual to decide which watch is right for them.
