HAMILTON VENTURA ELVIS80 SKELETON
Hamilton presents its new Ventura Elvis80 Skeleton as “an ultra-modern tribute to the past, present and future of the world’s first electric watch”. This triangular watch was created in 1957, at the crossroads of the sci-fi boom and the electrification of music. Now it’s back with a skeletonised dial traversed by an electric pulse in red against the black PVD of the case and movement, or, less badass, in rose gold against a rose gold-coloured PVD background.

TISSOT HERITAGE MEMPHIS LIMITED EDITION (left)
Today, with the Memphis style enjoying a return to favour, Tissot has taken the basic 1988 design but adapted it by tweaking the case, inserting a domed crystal and replacing the second hand by a small disc marked with a dot.

OCHS UND JUNIOR SETTIMANA (right)
Dr. Ludwig Oechslin launched the brand Ochs und Junior in 2006. The Settimana was one of his first watches. It is iconic thanks to its unique manner of displaying the date or weekday with dots that move around the dial in a clockwise direction.
