Omega Speedmaster Reduced "Schumacher"
“Created in collaboration with Formula 1 legend Michael Schumacher, the Omega Speedmaster Reduced ‘Red Dial’ brings together watchmaking heritage and motorsport legacy,” explains Gonzague. “The vivid dial colour makes it a standout within the Speedmaster family, while its association with one of the sport’s most iconic figures adds lasting collector appeal.”
Zenith Chronomaster Original
“Powered by the legendary El Primero movement, the Zenith Chronomaster reflects technical achievement and historical significance,” he notes. “The high-frequency chronograph calibre – beating at 36,000 vibrations per hour – was one of the first automatic chronographs ever produced. A benchmark in precision engineering and design clarity.”
Breguet Classique
“The Breguet Classique exemplifies the brand’s dedication to traditional craftsmanship,” says Gonzague. “Its dial features four distinct hand-engraved guilloché patterns, framed by Breguet’s signature hands and the fluted cannelure on the case side. Its refined details and timeless proportions capture the enduring elegance that defines the maison.”
