New releases from Oris, Arnold & Son, Longines and more
Pietro PillaThis was was a fun week of releases to write about, with an incredible variety of colours and, where, surprisingly, most novelties could be divided into two macro groups – either white and pastel coloured releases (summer tones) or playing around with warm tones of brown (tropical vibes maybe?) H. Moser & Cie is announcing a limited run of sets inspired by both F1 drivers and engineers; Arnold & Son joins forces with Chronopassion for a unique, double tourbillon timepiece; and Longines drastically expands the Conquest collection with a Heritage line of the iconic model, among other highlights. Discover our full selection below and enjoy the reading!
