Swatch’s new holiday collection celebrates time together

Time well spent: Swatch's 2025 holiday collection celebrates shared moments

As pop royalty (you know who she is) continues to thaw out in anticipation of the Christmas season, Swatch has unveiled its touching Holiday Collection, framing its timepieces as symbolic invitations to cherish moments with close friends and family. The collection asserts the philosophy that the most elegant gift one can bestow is the gift of shared time, whether at a festive gathering or a heartfelt conversation. This narrative is encased in a selection of stylish and versatile watches, featuring dynamic color palettes and sophisticated stainless-steel designs. Swatch has a timepiece that suits every personality, designed to be worn and adored every day.

A collection of standout artistic designs

Among the curated offerings, two models capture the brand’s creative spirit. The ‘What If…Beige?‘ presents a distinct silhouette with its elegant square Bioceramic case and edge-to-edge biosourced glass, showcasing a gorgeous blue dial embellished with luminous hands and a practical day-date complication. An even bolder option, ‘The Pilgrim’, embodies a sporty, oversized aesthetic with a transparent matte biosourced case that displays a multi-colored dial and vibrant, glow-in-the-dark hands, reflecting the buoyant personality of its namesake athlete.

Swiss-made craftsmanship for the true watch collectors

True to its legacy, the collection offers the assurance of Swiss-made quality across a broad range of styles. For the gentleman who admires horological brilliance, there are always the enduringly popular stainless-steel chronographs and the statement-making 47mm BIG BOLD models. For the true aficionado, timepieces powered by the innovative SISTEM51 automatic movement represent the pinnacle of accessible mechanical artistry, ensuring there is a thoughtful timepiece for every personality.

A compelling statement on singular luxury

With the holidays approaching, Swatch masterfully merges playful design with a profound message for the season. These watches serve as elegant reminders that the ultimate luxury is the time we spend together and the celebration of connection and joy.

Hands-on with the new Victorinox Maverick, a 20-year-old icon gone smaller
Watch, Hands, Dial

There’s something to be said for knowing which way the wind is blowing. The watch world is no exception, and the newest release from Victorinox is doing exactly that: twenty years after the brand launched the Maverick collection, they’re modernizing one of their longest-running lines to meet people where they (and their wrists) are at.

The Swiss brand has dropped the case size, set up 14 total references — 10 quartz on Ronda 715 movements, four automatic on Sellita SW200s — swapped some movements, and adjusted pricing. I’ve been wearing the automatic in blue, priced around $1,200, for the past few days to see how that move plays out on the wrist — and the results are all business.

Dickies and Budweiser’s new collab is pure America-maxxing
Pants, Shirt, Clothing

Somewhere, a bald eagle is shedding a single tear over Dickies and Budweiser’s first-ever merch collab.

The two teamed up for Bud’s 150th anniversary, which is a heck of a milestone. Dickies was founded in 1922, so it’s no slouch either, and the hundred-plus years of combined workwear and beer experience have made this a pretty strong collection.

BENRUS moves past reissues with its first original design in years
Watch, Strap, Dial

Every BENRUS watch since 2025 has been a rerun. The Type 3X is the first new episode. The American watchmaker founded in 1921 just dropped a brand-new, modern field watch built with input from former Tier One special-operations veterans.

It’s the first watch since the brand’s 2025 relaunch that isn’t a reissue of an old design: the Vietnam-era DTU-2A/P, the Type 1 and Type 2 favored by Navy SEALs and Special Forces, and the #3061 famously worn by Steve McQueen in “Bullitt.” The Type 3X breaks from that pattern entirely, built from scratch rather than pulled from an old catalog page.
