Hamilton's latest ODC X watch continues to draw on the 1966 Kubrick-commissioned original, a limited-edition watch featured in "2001: A Space Odyssey" and so eye-catching that both Vogue and Esquire featured it. In 2006, Hamilton decided to rework the ODC-X and came out with another limited-edition timepiece, "X-01." After tremendous positive response to the sequel, Hamilton started brainstorming for the next concept.
The new ODC X-02 supports three different time zones and features telescopic dials connected to each time chamber. With its aerodynamic shape, the watch has a futuristic look that will appeal to those who appreciate superior design and who aren't afraid to make a statement. Available in titanium or black PVD coating with a puzzle like clasp, there are only 1,000 available and are already in high demand. For more information, visit Watchismo.

Developed in conjunction with Comex and the infamous diving innovator Jacques Cousteau, Omega spent four years developing what was probably the first waterproof watch designed...

Maximilian Büsser, the mastermind behind the rule-breaking HM1, recently offered me the rare privilege to have first look in person at his new child, the Horological Machine No.2, before it went public. Since going public, it's been far and wide in the blogosphere, but I think it's too amazing to not put on CH. With four dials—Jumping Hours, Concentric Retrograde Minutes, Retrograde Date and...
The first Only Watch auction in 2005 was so wildly successful—raising €1.9 million Euros for charity (Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy)—there was little doubt they'd try to follow it up. Two years later, it's back with more rare machines from today's most desirable brands. The event, commissioned by Prince Albert II of Monaco, will offer 35 limited edition and one-of-a-kind prototype watches, or as the horologically...
