Timex
Timex x Peanuts Marlin Automatic Soccer
Timex’s fun take on the Marlin Automatic features a “mystery dial” complication, where the seconds hand appears as a soccer ball printed on a transparent disc, giving the illusion that it’s floating around the dial after having been kicked by Snoopy at 6:00.
Mido’s criminally underrated diver gets a rich ocean blue color for its wavy 3D dial, complete with a matching aluminum bezel insert. The 39mm stainless steel case comes on a three-link steel bracelet with a folding clasp, and a matching blue rubber strap with fitted ends and a steel pin buckle is provided.
Vulcain reimagines its iconic cricket with a case made from Grade 5 titanium and a reworked mechanical movement that uses the same advanced material for many of its components. Not only is titanium lighter than steel, but it also provides superior acoustic resonance, making this Cricket’s alarm sharper and crisper than ever.
Longines overhauls its Master Collection with a more refined barleycorn dial featuring applied rhodium-plated indices, a sleeker and slimmer stainless steel case, a new automatic movement with a silicon balance spring and a microadjustable clasp.
For the 39th consecutive year, Chopard is the official timekeeper of the Mille Miglia, a prestigious 1,000-mile race from Brescia, Italy, to Rome. Only cars produced before 1957 can participate, so the race’s official watch is inspired by 1950s chronographs. This year’s edition is distinguished by a creamy eggshell white dial, paired with an unfinished brown calfskin leather perforated racing strap.
Christopher Ward reteams with “horological artist” seconde-seconde for this cheeky take on the C60 Trident Reef that reminds you how to behave while on summer vacation at the hotel pool, with time dedicated to reading, sunbathing, relaxing and more.
Timex evolves the Waterbury Ace lineup once more, adding an Intelligent Quartz movement and two retrograde chronograph subdials. This iteration cleans up the original Fly-Back models from the discontinued ’00s-era TX Watch Company sub-brand, removing the numerals and date window. It’s also incredibly affordable at just $300.
Urwerk bids adieu to one of its most recognizable models with the UR-120 Blue Planet. This wearable spaceship is powered by the familiar in-house Calibre UR-20.01 automatic, with hours displayed on three rotating satellites mounted on triple planetary gears and minutes on a retrograde display. What’s different is the color treatment, with a striking blue PVD coating covering the sandblasted steel case and 24K yellow gold PVD coating on the satellite architecture. The watch is mounted on a blue calf leather strap with a Cordura texture and blue PVD steel pin buckle.
Yema unveils the second generation of its cushion case dress watch, inspired by the Renaissance architecture of the Granvelle Palace. At 37mm, the case is 2mm smaller than the original, and outfitted with new hands, indices and textures within the same dial layout. It is powered by Yema’s in-house Caliber CMM.29 automatic movement, and is available in blue, slamon and black.
Autodromo throws it back to the 1980s with an ana-digi chronograph featuring an anodized aluminum body and a debossed grid-patterned dial styled after Group C tachometers.
Orient updated one of its most popular dive watches, the AC0Q, by borrowing the dial from its other most popular diver, the Kamasu. It retains the 40mm stainless steel case, featuring a steel unidirectional bezel with an engraved 60-minute dive track. Now the dial uses the distinctive Kamasu handset and applied hour markers, including a framed date window at 3:00. It debuts with a radiant sunburst dial in blue, green, brown, steel and tan.
For MB&F’s twelfth horological machine, the brand didn’t just build a watch. It made a robot. The 755-part humanoid forms the home for the watch when it’s off your wrist, with a quick-release system making it easy to switch the watch head from its strap to the robot, where it becomes a literal head. The watch’s dial was designed as the face of the robot, with its jump-hour and trailing minutes discs forming the eyes, its micro-rotor standing in for the mouth and its flying tourbillon sitting up top as the brains of the operation. The watch also features a new “Face Shield” complication that allows you to partially conceal part of the dial by turning the left crown. The robot’s body boasts several fun features of its own, with a mechanical thermometer in its chest, a magnifying glass “shield” integrated into its right arm, a UV flashlight in its left arm and a Super-LumiNova pattern across its body that makes it come alive in the dark. This machine is priced at CHF 280,000, which currently converts to around $351,000.
In the grand scheme of Japanese watches, there’s no denying the influence of G-Shock’s classic square-cased 5600 watch. And while there is no shortage of options in the Casio sub-brand’s catalog, this one gets a bit of a boost thanks to its connection to another Japanese icon, Toyo Tires. The watch remains affordable and maintains its classic functionality, but it gets some styling tweaks in the form of a white dial, Toyo branding and signature blue details, a special backlight icon (with the Proxes “R” logo) and a tire tread pattern on the resin strap.
TAG Heuer Carrera Chronograph Glassbox Europe Limited Edition
TAG Heuer’s Carrera Chronograph Glassbox, the modern iteration of the definitive auto racing watch, gets a sandy-colored dial featuring a pair of black sundials. It comes on a matching sandy-colored perforated leather racing strap with a steel deployant clasp. This is a limited edition exclusive to the European market.
Raymond Weil enters the integrated sports watch arena with the A.R.T. Collection boasting a 38mm case and integrated bracelet in stainless steel, a sunburst dial, 100m of water resistance and an automatic movement.
Casio follows up its automatic Edifice line with the EFK-200, debuting with a carbon fiber variant in tandem with Toyota. The new model keeps the same Miyota movement as before but cleans up the dial and adds a sportier bezel shape to the overall look. You still get 100m of water resistance, a 38mm diameter and a ~$300 price tag.
Japan’s hottest new watch brand unveils its fourth collection, set in a slightly shrunken 37mm version of the brand’s signature case, topped with a domed sapphire crystal. The dial revives the syringe hour and minute hands from the brand’s first release, but remixed with a sunken, off-center small seconds. The dial comes in royal blue, eggshell white and cherry blossom pink with a flower relief on the small seconds dial. All three are powered by a Miyota Caliber 82S5 automatic movement, and come on a quick-release leather pin buckle strap.
Chronoswiss cools down its Delphis jump-hour watch for summer with this glacier-inspired edition. The watch combines a 42mm Grade 5 titanium case and black rubber strap with a hand-guillochéd silver galvanic upper dial and brilliant blue guillochéd small seconds display. The retrograde minute hand is blued to match the subdial, with blue accents also popping up every five minutes on the minute track. Inside the 50-piece limited edition beats the Chronoswiss Cal. C.6004 automatic movement featuring a 55-hour power reserve and ruthenium plating.
Luminox is no stranger to tough tactical timepieces, as the go-to brand for Navy SEALs, Icelandic Search and Rescue teams and more. And the brand’s Pacific Diver is among its best, most recognizable offerings. This edition retains its IP-coated stainless steel case, Carbonox bezel (which is ultralight and ultra-tough), Swiss-made quartz movement, signature 25-year lume and more. But it also gets elevated styling courtesy of splashes of a Transformative Teal color based on the WGSN x Coloro “Color of the Year 2026.”
Ming teams up with California watchmaker J.N. Shapiro for this collaborative take on the former’s 38-Series sports watch featuring a titanium dial that’s personally finished by the brands’ two founders. First, Josh Shapiro applies a hand-turned “lightning” guilloché pattern. Then, Ming Thein uses a blow torch to heat treat the dial.
Favre Leuba’s legendary Deep Raider, revived in 2024, is now offered with a day-date complication. The 40mm stainless steel case is topped with a ceramic bezel insert and double-domed sapphire crystal. A sunburst dial with a vertical smoky black fade is available in blue, green, burgundy and salmon. It comes on a three-link steel bracelet with a butterfly clasp.
Blancpain unveils the ultimate version of its futuristic Fifty Fathoms Tech, combining the case and three-hour dive complication of the original Tech Gombessa with the high-vis dial, interchangeable strap system and date complication of the simpler FF Tech.
Worn & Wound teamed up with indie watchmaker Boldr once again for the 2026 edition of its Ride to Conquer Cancer team watch. This 41mm bicompax chronograph features a titanium case with a neon-pink Cerakote finish. It comes on a nylon NATO strap made exclusively for this release by StrapHabit, along with the 2026 Boldr x Worn & Wound Team Cycling Cap. It is a limited edition of 200 pieces, and $80 from every purchase goes to The Princess Margaret Cancer Foundation.
Citizen’s Promaster series is perhaps best known for its dive watches, but the lineup actually encompasses numerous other categories of adventure-ready watches. Take the latest addition, for example. The WaveTracker blends elements of a dive watch, field watch, driving watch and more. Once you know it was created for yacht racing, that all makes perfect sense. However, those elements also make it a formidable generalist all-around outdoor adventure watch, as well. And since its solar-powered, it’s also incredibly convenient.
