Swiss luxury watchmaker TAG Heuer has masterfully entered the realm of high-octane racing with the inauguration of an elegant new boutique in Austin’s lofty Domain Northside. The grand opening, strategically timed to coincide with the city’s Grand Prix festivities, was headlined by Formula 1 World Champion Max Verstappen, cementing the brand’s bond with motorsport excellence.

The boutique’s design embodies a sophisticated racing spirit

The new Austin space is a masterclass in merging racing heritage with a luxurious retail environment. The interior presents a refined atmosphere, accented by rich wood and sleek black tones that mimic the precision of a racing machine. The brand’s acclaimed legacy is tastefully integrated throughout the venue, with racing suits displayed as artwork and the TAG Heuer logo featured on a latticed wood surface, producing an immersive experience that resonates with clients and collectors.

An opening celebration filled with F1 stars 

To commemorate the launch, TAG Heuer hosted an exclusive event with three-time F1 World Champion Max Verstappen, captivating an audience of top clients. This unforgettable gathering underscored the brand’s authenticity and commitment to the world of motorsports, celebrating over a century of pioneering chronograph technology as the Official Timekeeper of Formula 1.

A strategic expansion for the iconic brand

The new boutique substantially elevates TAG Heuer’s footprint in the Americas, serving as a dedicated space for connoisseurs to explore its cutting-edge watches, from iconic mechanical chronographs to the latest Connected watch. Its arrival also cements Domain Northside’s status as a premier destination for luxury retail, providing a sophisticated gateway for clients to engage with the brand’s storied legacy.

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.

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.
