Doxa is a respected and revered brand in the watch industry, and has once again proved its prowess with the audacious Sub 300 Carbon Seafoam. This latest creation represents true innovation, reimagining and evolving the realm of luxury tool watches for connoisseurs for the 21st century. The brand’s iconic timepiece is limited to just 300 pieces and stands as a testament to Doxa’s commitment to horological brilliance, blending a storied past with a robust execution that celebrates the spirit of contemporary exploration.

A fortified case crafted from forged carbon fiber

This choice of material is a masterstroke of modern engineering, with each case boasting a singular, marbled pattern, ensuring that no two watches are identical — a subtle touch of individuality that collectors will immediately be drawn to. The vibrant ‘Seafoam’ silver dial, a color deeply associated with Doxa’s diving legacy, provides a stunning contrast against the dark, textured case. This dial is a model of purposeful elegance, showcasing the brand’s signature oversized orange hour hand and a unidirectional rotating bezel finished with a glossy black ceramic insert, selected for its supreme scratch resistance.

A timepiece powered by a chronometer-certified automatic movement

To ensure elevated precision, the COSC-certified Sellita SW300-1 automatic movement can be found here, a caliber known for its reliability and premium performance. This certification guarantees that the watch meets the highest standards of accuracy, a necessary feature for a professional instrument. The Sub 300 Carbon is built to withstand the rigors of the deep, equipped with an impressive water resistance of up to 300 meters. It is presented on a distinctive black rubber strap with the brand’s patented expandable folding clasp, designed to fit comfortably over a wetsuit. This combination of state-of-the-art materials and proven movement technology makes this limited edition a compelling choice for the discerning enthusiast.

A limited edition infused with heritage and high-tech innovation

The Doxa Sub 300 Carbon Seafoam is a horological statement, proving that a brand can stay true to its iconic history while fearlessly embracing the future. For the collector in search of a timepiece with a rich narrative and the benefits of advanced material science, this limited edition stands as a lightweight champion with a heavyweight legacy, perfectly encapsulating the dynamic spirit that has defined Doxa for generations.

Swatch’s new gold MoonSwatch is priced like it’s 1969

Wristwatch, Arm, Body Part

Guess what? It's another MoonSwatch — but this isn't just another colorway. The new drop from the Switzerland-based watchmaker, the MoonSwatch Mission to the Moon 1969, is the first to use real gold across the dial, hands, crown, and pushers.

The watch marks the anniversary of the Apollo 11 landing on July 21, 1969.

Breitling’s new Top Time is a wearable tribute to the Aston Martin DB5
The new watches rep the iconic Bond car right down to subdials shaped like its dashboard gauges.
Car, Watch, Man

Breitling just released a trio of heaters: the Top Time B01 Chronograph 41 Tribute to Aston Martin DB5, a three-edition collaboration with the British carmaker. The connection between the Swiss watchmaker and the British car company runs back to 1965, when a Top Time ref. 2002 appeared on Sean Connery's wrist in Thunderball, worn alongside the DB5 — the first Q-modified watch in the Bond series. It's a nice bit of trivia that the DB5 and that Top Time shared the screen in the same film, and both went on to outlive the movie by decades.

The car cues go deeper than the "squircle" gauge-shaped subdials: a wooden inner ring nods to the DB5's steering wheel, and each edition rides on a hand-colored gradient calfskin strap meant to read like automotive upholstery. All three run on Breitling's in-house Manufacture Caliber 01, a COSC-certified automatic chronograph with a 70-hour power reserve, visible through a sapphire caseback and finished with an Aston Martin-engraved rotor. The case measures 41mm. The editions are divvied up by material and rarity. Stainless steel with a silver dial is limited to 1,022 pieces and sticks closest to the original ref. 2002, while steel with a platinum bezel and black lacquered dial drops to 315 pieces.

Look to the sky for these space themed watches
These 5 space themed watches will have you seeing stars
Accessories, Strap, Wristwatch

It was the 1960s. We were in the middle of a Cold War with Russia, and instead of escalating to an actual war with bullets and bombs, we took the conflict to the sky. We created a war of economics, science, and morale in a race to the sky to be the first nation to reach the moon. While the race picked up throughout the decade, it came down to the wire before the USA won the race by landing on the moon (if you believe that sort of thing and don't believe Stanley Kubrick directed the greatest ruse of all time). In any case, no race can be run without a good timekeeper. And watches were a must-have for all involved. Ever since, chronophiles like me have been obsessed with space-themed watches and, in particular, moon mission watches.

That is why I happened to have this list in my head. Five watches that bring the space race and the great beyond to the forefront of thinking to build a collection that is out of this world.
