Romain Jerome
The Five Black tourbillion is a striking design from Swiss company Romain Jerome. It has an unusual construction which uses satin finished blackened steel for the case, and ceramic for the bezel. It is manually wound, but the power reserve does not quite last a week - it is 120 hours.
Ulysse Nardin Blue Seal
Ulysse Nardin is another company which is using BaselWorld to launch a new chronograph. The Blue Seal will be available in limited edition only - 1,846 pieces in stainless steel and 999 pieces in 18kt rose gold. The self winding action has a relatively short power reserve of only 42 hours.
Schwarz Etienne
The Roma is Schwarz Etienne’s new model that they will be introducing this year at BaselWorld. It introduces what is fast becoming one of the most fashionable, and surprisingly for a complication, useful, features of recent times.
New Corum Romvlvs
For the first time Corum has added a chronograph complication to its Romvlvs product line. The watch comes with a 44mm stainless steel case engraved with roman numerals - there are no numbers on the face itself. The crystal is made from sapphire and includes an anti-reflective coating, but there is only one on the front, not the back as well.
Zenith Classic Diver Chronograph
This watch will be produced as a limited edition of only 250 pieces, with a case manufactured from brushed stainless steel. The balance bridge is made from a special shock absorbent material, known as “Zenithium” which allows the chronograph to measure short time intervals - down to 1/10th of a second.

David & Goliath
Once upon a time, long before the wristwatch was invented, the best clocks in the world came from England. The trouble was that they were rather big. This did not matter if their function was to act as a ship’s chronometer but it did get slightly awkward if, like all fashionable men, you tried to keep one of these clocks in your waistcoat pocket.
Collector's Item
Think expensive watch: think Rolex. Which may explain why nobody has ever had their hand cut off for a Patek Philippe or a Breguet. It also explains why the Rolex stand at the Basel Fair was at least twice as big as any other. The importance of Rolex to the luxury watch industry may also be seen from the fact that eighty five percent of all the officially-certified chronometers made in Switzerland come from the Rolex manufactory.
