ONE FOR THE MOMENT

Jewellery is often used to commemorate milestones in life and what better way to do so than with a medallion necklace from Chaumet’s emblematic Jeux de Liens Harmony collection? The pendant is made of two asymmetric semicircles joined by the brand’s signature X-shaped link, evoking the bond that connects two individuals. Though different gem-set variations are available, the back of every pendant is kept plain so that it can be personalised with an engraving upon request, keeping a special memory close to one’s heart. The Chaumet Jeux de Liens Harmony medallion necklaces come in three sizes, with adjustable chain lengths for effortless layering.

"Seamaster Diver 300M Co-Axial Master Chronometer 007 Edition, OMEGA"

BOND IDENTITY

Your man may not lead as exciting a life as James Bond, but he can certainly channel his suave style. Our favourite spy, played for the fifth time by Daniel Craig, returns to the big screen this April in No Time to Die, sporting—but of course—an OMEGA timepiece the actor helped design. The reported watch enthusiast proposed a lightweight watch with a vintage hue for dial and bezel, along with a slimmer profile that fits comfortably under 007’s signature turnback cuffs. The result: a sleek and lightweight Seamaster Diver 300M 007 Edition driven by the OMEGA Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre 8806, with a titanium case and mesh bracelet, and an aluminium dial that takes on the aged patina of old watches.

"Plasma high-tech ceramic, mother-of-pearl and diamond DiaMaster Moonphase watch, Rado"

VERDANT VIEW

Rado’s DiaMaster family, loved by many for the minimalist design, welcomes a new moonphase model for women. This eye-catching timepiece comes in a polished plasma high-tech ceramic case and features a light green dial with a matching, painted mother-of-pearl moonphase indicator surrounded by 21 Top Wesselton diamonds. Its green calf leather strap can also be switched out quickly to another band that matches your mood or outfit, thanks to Rado’s Easy Clip system.

LUNAR ENIGMA

The moon never ceases to inspire Hermès, and its new, limited-edition Arceau Ronde des Heures is the latest watch to pay tribute to it through a poetic approach to telling time. The batonshaped hand points to the minute while the rotating carousel of sloping Arabic numerals indicates the hour when it passes over the mother-of-pearl crescent moon—the number that touches its lower tip represents the hour. Only 300 pieces of the watch, which features a bezel set with black spinels and a matching polished alligator skin strap, have been made.

FRESH PICKS

Why get a necklace you can wear just one way when you can get one that can be worn in three? Pomellato’s iconic Nudo collection sees a versatile addition that allows you to switch up your look according to mood, style and outfit: a rose gold sautoir—with obsidian; mother-of-pearl and white topaz; or sky blue topaz—that can be worn the classic way, as a lariat or double-wrapped around the neck. Also fresh out of Pomellato’s atelier in Milan is the Iconica collection, where voluminous, rounded contours inform necklaces, bracelets and earrings in plain or gem-set rose gold— a nod to the brand’s goldsmith heritage.

BEARY TIMELY

For its 50 anniversary celebrations, American brand Ralph Lauren has released a trio of watches featuring its iconic Polo Bear. The original Polo Bear was a limited-edition teddy bear produced by German toy manufacturer Steiff in 1991. Since then, the beloved bear has made its appearance on a variety of Ralph Lauren merchandise in the form of embroidery, prints and patches, and now, on the dials of the commemorative watches, dressed in outfits inspired by the designer’s signature looks. The timepieces are all fitted with a Swiss-made automatic movement, and each comes with two strap options in materials such as leather, tartan silk and distressed denim, to add a touch of sartorial playfulness to any ensemble.
