TAG HEUER MONZA 40TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION
The new Tag Heuer Monza is a modern interpretation of the Monza watch from the Seventies. The original Monza is important because it was one of the first PVD-coated watches and was created to celebrate Ferrari’s victories in Formula One. The new Monza stays faithful to the design of the original but has been updated with a modern PVD-coated titanium case. $7,150
ROMAIN JEROME BATMAN- DNA GOTHAM CITY
For fans of the Dark Knight, surely there isn’t a more suitable and desirable timepiece than this? The Romain Jerome Batman-DNA Gotham City watch features a laser engraved 3D logo of the Bat on the dial with Gotham City as the backdrop. But the coolest thing about it is that it appears to be all black, but then lights up in the dark thanks to the use of strong Super Luminova in the background. $25,400
TUDOR HERITAGE BLACK BAY DARK
The Tudor Heritage Black Bay Dark is the latest watch from the very popular Heritage Black Bay series, and it features a deep black PVD coating, which gives it a very stealthy look. Inside beats Tudor’s new MT5602 manufacturer movement, which has a 70-hour power reserve and is a certified chronometer. POA
OMEGA DARK SIDE OF THE MOON
The Omega Dark Side of the Moon is a modern icon of horology because it’s one of the first watches to be made almost entirely out of zirconium dioxide ceramic, which is immensely tough and virtually scratch-proof. The case, crown, pushers, and even the dial and buckle are all made out of ceramic, which means that this watch should look just the same even a hundred years later. $15,500
