As the name hints, the Chronomaster Rainbow is characterized by a rainbow allure, thanks to the stones set on the bezel. It’s worth noting that this new rainbow timepiece is based on a rose gold version that was rolled out in 2024. Featuring a 41 mm casing, the new Zenith watch establishes some dominance in the industry with its shiny appearance.

The casing is fitted with 50 different stones for a rainbow-like look—40 sapphire and 10 diamond stones. To complete the whole look, the dial has sapphire markers that blend smoothly with stones set on the bezel.

The black lacquered dial accentuates hour markers and extra elements fitted on the watch.

When it comes to the overall performance, Zenith opted for a powerful caliber, the El Primero 3600.

The Defy Skyline Chronograph Skeleton

While the DEFY Skyline has a design that dates back to the ‘60s, it has been remodeled to match the changing times. The latest Defy Skyline, which was unveiled during the LVMH Watch Week, comes with a skeletonized dial. Since this model has an open-dial design, the El Primero 3600 movement is in plain sight. In short, the new Defy Skyline Skeleton offers beautiful views of the mechanism.

Elements fixed on the watch are highlighted by a finish, which reflects light stylishly. Zenith also preserved a few elements from the ‘60s to pay tribute to the initial design.

While the Defy Chronograph Skeleton retails at $15,500, the Chronomaster Sport Rainbow is priced at $112,100.

The latest Breguet watch is a marvelous piece with beautiful diamonds and a unique design. It symbolizes the brand’s innovative spirit and horological elegance, passed down through time. Thanks to a unique stone-setting technique, the watch has an elegant pattern that makes the dial stand out. According to Breguet, the Classique Tourbillion 3358 is the embodiment of Abraham Louis Breguet's ideas, which date back to 1801.

Abraham Louis, the founder of the brand, came up with a unique technique of setting gems on a watch’s dial in the 19th century. While this timepiece has a dazzling front face, it also stands out due to its mechanical precision. Abraham Louis’ innovations merged these two fields into one—mechanical precision and style.

The 2025 LVMH Watch Week would have been held in Los Angeles, but the venue was changed due to the recent fires that have been consuming the city. Different luxury watch brands, from Zenith and Bulgari to Tag Heuer had prepped for the event, which was supposed to go down in Bel Air. It’s worth noting that all these brands are under the same company.

Unfortunately, the California wildfires, which started on January 7th, have covered over 38,600 acres and burnt down 12,000 structures in seven days. What started as small fires grew into huge fires. Multiple neighborhoods, such as Bel Air, Sylmar, and Pacific Palisades, were affected. Evacuation alerts were sent to residents. While the firefighting department has stopped fires in various regions, the wildfires might spread to different neighborhoods as the winds grow stronger.
