Among the featured models we have:
Omega Seamaster Ploprof Diver Watch
It was in 1970 that Omega made a bold statement with its initial design of this diver’s watch, and the version from just two years ago is very representative in its original conception. While similar in terms of aesthetics, the 2016 version is an upgraded model, particularly with its titanium case, ceramic bezel, and OMEGA Co-Axial and Master Chronometer calibers. The color scheme is rather simplistic, but its minimalism is to be applauded, particularly for its ability to blend well with sporty attire. Its price is 4,300 euros.
Omega Speedmaster Skywalker X-33
In addition to the impressive Star Wars reference in its name, the Omega Speedmaster Skywalker X-33 should be noted for the fact that it was the result of a collaboration between the Omega brand and the Solar Impulse Project. The Project has an ambitious goal of circling the globe in an airplane powered only by the sun. With skeletonized hands, iPad apps, lightweight design, and reliability on board, this watch is certainly an attractive option if you’re looking for a feature-rich watch. Its price is 4,100 euros.

Audemars Piguet
Founded in 1875 by Jules-Louis Audemars and Edward-Auguste Piguet, Audemars Piguet produces 36,000 of its prestigious timepieces a year. Something unheard of though, Tiffany & Co and Bulgari copy the movements of this brand.
This luxury watch brand is also noted for creating the first steel luxury sports watch. The watch in question was dubbed the Royal Oak in 1972. Later, in 1993, the brand created the first oversized watch called the Royal Oak Offshore.
Other outstanding models are:
Audemars Piguet Tourbillon Extra-thin Openworked
If you are looking for the best and most amazing designs in gold watches, the design of the Audemars Piguet Tourbillon model is notable for its intricate features. Its casing is almost bionic, having a small reference to C-3PO from Star Wars. With an 18-carat gold case, anti-reflective sapphire crystal and case back, as well as water resistance to 20 meters, Audemars Piguet has maintained its brand’s precision and reliability with this timepiece. Silver studs on the dial frame play off the gold, offering a more dimensional look. Its price is almost 180,000 euros.

Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Chronograph
The Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Chronograph model maintains the brand’s early ’70s aesthetic, but adds a playful modernity with some of its elements, particularly its three-counter chronograph. The dial also comes in a silvery white which is cool and classic or alternatively it can be purchased in a powdery pale blue hue for a more refined version. The yellow gold hour hand with luminescent coating completes this standout timepiece. We personally recommend the Royal Oak Chronograph to gentlemen who aren’t afraid to wear a more conservative watch model, but still want something classy and eye-catching. Its price is almost 20,000 euros.
