To pay tribute to a TV series that highlights how Formula 1 driver Ayrton Senna rose to the top, Tag Heuer collaborated with the driver’s brand to create an iconic watch, the Tag Heuer Carrera Chronograph Tourbillon x Senna.

Every defining moment in his life, including the highs and lows, will be featured on a show that will be available on Netflix starting November 29, 2024. Some scenes of the show, starring TAG Heuer ambassador Gabriel Leone as Senna, will also provide insight into some of the Tag Heuer timepieces that Senna inspired.

Since 2024 is considered to be Senna’s 30th anniversary, Tag Heuer launched a stylish and sophisticated watch to mark the occasion.

The watch has a 44mm casing made from titanium for enhanced durability. And thanks to the sandblasted finish, the case has a very interesting texture that complements the overall design. On the front side, there’s a tachymeter scale with denotations that go up to 400km/hr. Think of the denotations as the high speeds that Senna hit during his Formula One career.

Featuring an openwork dial, the Tag Heuer Carrera Chronograph Tourbillon x Senna offers beautiful views of the movement. The bridges are characterized by smooth curves similar to racetrack bends.

While the openwork dial is designed to look like the racetrack, the movement has a beautiful check-like pattern. In terms of performance, this timepiece is equipped with a movement which offers a 65-hour power reserve.

As a limited edition Tag Heuer watch, only 500 pieces will be launched into the market, and each piece will retail at $37,900.

Bulova’s new MIL-SHIPS watch revives a 1950s military design in bronze

Bulova’s latest timepiece tells a deep story, which is centered around the brand’s evolution over the past 150 years. The MIL-SHIPS timepieces honor the brand's history of developing military watches.

Back in the 1950s, the US Navy was looking for a watch that could withstand tough conditions, so Bulova stepped in and created the Bulova MIL-SHIPS-W-2181 Submersible. This submersible watch was watertight, resistant to water vapor, visible in darkness, and equipped with a rotatable bezel. However, it was never available commercially and while testing was successful, Bulova didn't proceed to production, leaving a handful of prototypes in limbo.
That is until 2021 when it was brought back to life. It was given a beautiful makeover, which makes it look quite stylish—something to keep up with the changing times. It’s worthwhile to note the casing’s design was passed down from the original timepiece.
Now, the Bulova MIL- SHIPS watch has a CuSn8 bronze case, meant to be reminiscent of 19th-century diving helmets. As a watch that draws inspiration from old diving gear, this timepiece creates a smooth balance between retro and modern aesthetics.

Looks like Piaget went all out with this new tourbillion watch. The new Polo Flying Tourbillon Moonphase is the embodiment of the progress that the brand has made in the past few years, ever since it launched the modern version of the Polo.

It’s worth noting that the Piaget Polo is a retro watch from the ‘70s, revived and reimagined in 2016 to keep up with the times. While the 1979 Polo was solid gold, this one looks much different. The new watch has a stylish front face and an open dial that adds to the look. While the open dial is characterized by a dark blue hue, some sections have a metallic luster that creates a contrast between different elements. This timepiece also has white hour markers.
