Urwerk went back to the drawing board and unveiled a minimalistic watch: the UR-100V Magic T Hunter Green. Think of it as the perfect timepiece for different environments.

Previous models had a contemporary look—like something out of a sci-fi movie. As the name hints, this new timepiece comes with a dark green hue, which is complemented by white denotations.

Featuring a 43mm titanium casing, this timepiece stands out due to Urwerk’s design. While the casing has an interesting profile that looks like a UFO or a spacecraft, the dial has a minimalistic design that keeps things simple. The casing was also put through the sand-blasting procedure to create an interesting allure.

Just like other watches from the UR 100 collection, the new green edition was rolled out with a curved sapphire crystal, a small feature that makes it look more stylish. This watch is unique, thanks to the green hue that’s featured on the dial. It’s not a vibrant hue, but it’s a very interesting color that is subtle and dark—one of the reasons why this watch leans on the minimalistic side.

Even though a dark green appearance characterizes the dial, it has components with a luminous green color that breathes some life into the front face and makes it more lively.

Since this new watch is equipped with the Caliber UR 12.02, it can offer a 42-hour power reserve, like other watches from this collection. Only 35 pieces will be rolled out into the market, and each will cost $66,000.

Longines refreshes its cult-favorite central power reserve in light blue

The Swiss watch company is giving the Conquest Heritage Central Power Reserve some new dial and bracelet options.

Wristwatch, Arm, Dial

Longines has been around since 1832, which makes it one of the oldest continuously operating watchmakers on Earth — old enough to have spent decades strapped to the wrists of aviators and explorers before most brands existed. So when the Saint-Imier company, now part of the Swiss giant Swatch Group, revives something from its own archives, it's got real history to draw on. The Conquest Heritage Central Power Reserve is a good example.

The Conquest line dates to 1954 — the first Longines collection to have its name trademarked with the Swiss IP office. And in 1959, one Conquest model introduced the complication this watch is built around: a power reserve indicator planted dead center on the dial. For 2026, Longines has given the modern revival a light refresh: a new light-blue opaline dial and (for the first time on this model) a stainless-steel bracelet alongside the returning dark leather strap.

Shohei Ohtani’s newest Seiko is out of this world

Seiko built Shohei Ohtani a one-of-one watch that tracks a million hours across five rotating discs — and you can't buy it.

Wristwatch, Arm, Body Part

The Seiko Star Time, presented to Shohei Ohtani on July 3, marks his tenth year as a Seiko ambassador. It's not for sale, will never be for sale, and there's exactly one on Earth — currently strapped to the best baseball player alive. Oh, and also? It looks absolutely nuts. Instead of hands, the Star Time tells time with five stacked, concentric discs, each tracking a different scale of accumulated time: 24 hours, then 1,000, 10,000, 100,000, and finally a disc that runs all the way to one million hours.

That's roughly 114 years — a full human lifetime, give or take. The discs turn continuously, so slowly you can't see them move. Seiko named it "Star Time" for exactly that reason: like stars drifting across the sky, the motion is imperceptible in the moment but relentless. A little existential for a watch company, but let's go with it.

The Internet Killed Expertise and Then Made It Cool Again

How the Internet Killed Expertise, Made It Worthless, and Then Made It Cool Again

Watchmaker's workshop. Mechanical watch repair.

We’ve gone through a little period that I like to call the “Dark Ages of Knowing Things,” when the internet had an entire generation of men convinced they no longer needed experts. Why would they? Everything was available at the drop of a hat, and with one Google search, you could have the world at your fingertips. There were deep-dive forum threads written by a retired Swiss watchmaker in Neuchâtel who had seen 40 years of studying the serif on a Rolex dial (probably, but I can’t actually verify that.) It was all there, free for the taking, and unfortunately, completely indistinguishable from a guy who just bought his first watch 6 weeks beforehand and was already writing a buying guide.

For a while at least, it felt like the walls were coming down, and in some ways, they were. The gatekeepers no longer had their gates, which meant that a kid from Doncaster could learn to identify a fake Submariner faster than a back-alley dealer who had been in the business for 20 years if he simply spent enough nights casually perusing Reddit threads. Knowledge, we were told, should be free. Of course, nobody mentioned that free knowledge and good knowledge are not the same thing.
