A thorough review about the best of the best in horological excellence that we have published through 2021

This year that we are leaving behind has seen us emerge from the mists of the lockdowns to live the life we used to once again. And with the multiplication of social occasions, the desire to accompany our look with a nice new high-end watch has returned.

Fortunately, the Maisons, from the most famous to those most niche, have not been idle, and during this period have delighted us with the launch of new models that we have presented on our pages. Here, then, you will find a gallery of the most beautiful men's luxury watches that have come our way and that we have the pleasure of re-proposing to you – perhaps to suggest an exceptional Christmas gift

Our Favourite New OMEGA Watches 2021
