Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Calendar Meteorite Dial Watch To Debut At SIHH 2015
It was at?SIHH 2013 that Jaeger-LeCoultre presented its Master Calendar, a?highly legible calendar watch that was inspired by a similar model the manufacture made around 1945. It offered the?date, day, month, and phase of the moon indications on?a nicely laid-out and,?indeed, very restrained-looking?dial.

Magrette Regattare Tiki Watch
Magrette is a small independent watch brand hailing from Auckland, New Zealand. We have covered their watches in the past and they have recently announced a new addition to their Regattare line of sport dive watches. The new Regattare Tiki will offer a wider range of dial colors as well as case finishing in either stainless or PVD. The Regattare Tiki builds on the Magrette formula with strong and legible dial design backed by a sport-ready case construction which boasts 500m water resistance. This 44mm steel sport watch can be had in one of three configurations, a stainless steel case with either a blue or black dial or a PVD black case with a black dial.

Timekeeping is managed by a Miyota 9015 automatic
