The Corum Admiral’s Cup Challenger 44 Chrono Rubber (yes, the name is as informative as it is boring) looks like a daring attempt to steal the loyal customer base from the legendary Casio G-Shock series: perhaps, they target those affluent kids who always wanted themselves a G-Shock, but thought that even the most limited versions of the family weren’t expensive enough to brag about. Now, they have a choice of whole five models to choose from (or they can buy them all.)

The new Deep Blue Daynight T-100 Tritium Flat Tubes is not particularly handsome in broad daylight, but it shines like a Christmas tree in total darkness.

Glashutte Original Senator Navigator WorldView 39-47-07-07-04
During Baselworld 2011, Glashutte Original has presented a number of timekeepers, all of them beautiful in their own way. One of the most interesting (at least, to yours truly) products that were exhibited in Basel, was the gorgeous Senator Navigator WorldView (Ref. 39-47-07-07-04) that tries to monetize general public’s growing interest to all kinds of “pilot’s” watches. Surprisingly affordable (like, affordable for a brand that often offers three-handers in stainless steel for a price of an 18-karat gold Longines chronograph) yet smart, the gadget combines a deliberately vintage dial with a high-grade in-house caliber.
