The Best of Baselworld 2015

Baselworld, the world’s largest watch show, comes to an end tomorrow, but plenty of new releases have been announced already. Making headlines at the show were a multitude of innovative timepieces from independent watchmakers, updated classics from iconic brands and news about things to come. (TAG Heuer announced a partnership with Intel and Google for a smartwatch that is set to hit shelves closer to the end of this year.) In case you missed it, here’s the best of Baselworld 2015.

(1/13)

Citizen Eco-Drive Satellite Wave F900

Features: The Citizen F900 receives information from GPS satellites in order to tell its wearer’s position anywhere in the world, without having the wearer set the time zone, unlike previous Citizen watches.



Price: $2,400

Itay Noy Part Time

Features: This piece is divided into two parts; the dial has one side for the day and one for the night. It’s like taking shifts: when the day side is active (from 6am-6pm) the night side sleeps, and vice versa.



Price: $4,800

Longines Heritage Diver 1967 Chronograph

Features: The watch will retail with either a steel bracelet (double folding clasp with dive extension), a black alligator leather strap, or a black rubber strap with a fold over clasp and dive extension.



Price: $3,150

Omega Seamaster Ploprof 1200M Co-Axial Master Chronometer

Features: An impeccable and interesting-looking watch, the Omega Seamaster is water resistant to 1,200 meters and has a sapphire crystal caseback with a view to the movement.



Price: $18,000

Patek Philippe Calatrava Pilot Travel Time 5524

Features: The ultimate travel watch, this Patek piece comes complete with a local jumping hour hand, day/night indication for both home and local time, and a sub dial for the date.



Price: $47,600

Seiko 62GS Hi-Beat & Spring Drive

Features: This limited edition watch is a gorgeus feat in style with its dauphine-style hands and precision diamond-cut hour markers.



Price: $5,900

Ulysse Nardin Anchor Tourbillon

Features: This limited edition watch features a complex system of winding blades and springs visible in a tourbillon under the six o’clock hour.



Price: $84,000

Zenith Elite 6150

Features: This piece from Zenith is as handsome as it is thin. At only 3.92 millimeters thick, it might be the most perfect dress watch ever.



Price: Price upon request

Rolex Oyster Perpetual

Features: Rolex is keeping it simple and keeping it classy with the Rolex Oyster Perpetual, which comes in three colours: grey, red and blue.



Price: $7,055

TAG Heuer Carrera

Features: TAG is boasting their first skeletonized Carrera. A tricompax display on the skeleton dial shows off the different types of movement.



Price: $4,300

Tudor Pelagos Blue

Features: If the bright blue shade of the Tudor Pelagos Blue reminds you of the ocean, good, because that’s what they’re going for. With a 42mm titanium case that is water resistant to 500 meters, this is a watch for a man who loves the sea.



Price: $4,300

Christophe Claret Allegro Minute Repeater Two Time Zone

Features: The many complications on this watch (including the date, a second time zone, day/night indicator and more) mean that there are 520 parts inside.



Price: $350,000

HYT H3

Features: The HYT time display has no hands, satellite or pretty much anything else you’re used to. Instead, a rotating dial with four faces (each face graduated with 6 hours) enables the 24 hours of the day to be displayed.



Price: $290,000
