Franc Vila FV Evos 8 Cobra Blue Bandido Watch


Watch collectors either love or hate designs from Franc Vila. No other watch has a face that loosely resembles a cobra head—set into a case that looks like an egg sitting on its side. The reptilian look is furthered by the segmented scale style of the rubber strap (a separate crocodile strap is also included). With an almost ominous look, the famed FV Evos 8 Cobra watch is in all black and blue here; a special limited edition set reserved for the U.S. only. Eighty-eight people will be able to enjoy the look of this timepiece.

Description :


  1. 55-mm wide x 42mm tall case size
  2. Black DieHard Extreme steel bezel
  3. Carbon fiber used on the case and dial
  4. Arrives with segment style rubber strap as well as crocodile strap
  5. Face has time, big date indicator, and 12 hour chronograph

Louis Moinet Jurassic Tourbillon watch

The Jurassic Tourbillon contains fragments of authentic fossilized dinosaur bones around 130 million years old. While most of the rare fossils find a house in a public setting where they can be properly admired, Louis Moinet has innovatively housed these fossils for a unique admirer.

The hand-wound watch features an 18K white gold case with 56 Top Wesselton VVS baguette diamonds (3.46 cts) on the bezel, a tourbillon cage at 6 o’clock and an indicator for the 72-hour power reserve at 12 o’clock.

4N timepiece



Crafted by the brand called 4N, the watchmaker has weirdly named the masterpiece the 4N-MVT01/D01/42. So, to keep it simple, the 4N watch is manually wound and the hours and minutes are supposed to be jumping hours and minutes to allow a steady surge of power from the movement to move the discs without affecting the rate of the movement.

Featuring a wide screen, the 4N watch will be available in 18k white gold, platinum, along with the movement made mostly of titanium, aluminum alloys and carbon fiber.

Designed by François Quentin, the 4N watch will be available in a limited edition of just 16 units.

Josh Chadwick Digital-Analog Watch


Winner of Design Philadelphia, a design competition put on by The Cadence Watch Company, Josh Chadwick’s Digital-Analog timepiece concept combines the design elements of an analog watch with the aesthetics of a digital display. Currently pursuing a masters degree in industrial design at Philadelphia’s University of the Arts, Chadwick effectively repurposes the characteristics of a classical timepiece in a nontraditional, elegant and modern package.

The face of the watch has a modern digital display while still functioning like a traditional analog watch; the informational display in the center of the watch provides additional information (date, day of the week, AM/PM), while the outer rings represent the minute and hour hands.

Similar to other nontraditional approaches to time-telling (like Nooka), the Digital Analog watch by Josh Chadwick is a sleek modern alternative for those looking for unique design aesthetic.

Available for pre-order here.
