WATCH SPECIAL

HAMILTON PAN�EUROP

The Pan-Europ of 1971 was

among the world's  rst

self-winding chronographs.

This re-issue has the original

version's cushion case but

features Hamilton's new H-30

three-hand, self-winding

calendar mechanism with 80

hours of power reserve. The

retro look is completed with a

choice of grey or blue dials and

a classic, perforated leather

driver's strap. A more practical

(but less appealing) textile

version is also available.

From £780; hamiltonwatch.com

SEVEN FRIDAY M1�01

Seven Friday is a two-year-old, Zurich-based

brand that is attracting attention with its range

of distinctive, Chinese-made watches powered by

Japanese mechanical movements. The new M1 and

M2 models feature chunky, 47mm cases, left-side

crowns - and no hands. Instead, they use a system

of three rotating discs to display the time, with the

outer showing hours, the middle minutes and the

inner seconds. £995; sevenfriday.com

RAYMOND WEIL TOCCATA

Raymond Weil, who sadly died

at the beginning of this year,

established his eponymous

watch brand in 1976 with the

object of proving that luxury

watches don't have to be

ultra-expensive. His founding

ethos still prevails today, as

demonstrated in the new

Toccata models, which are

available in 38 or 42mm case

sizes and with a choice of black,

white, or blue dials on leather

straps or metal bracelets.

£550-675; raymond-weil.com

TONINO LAMBORGHINI SPYDER

The distinctive-looking Spyder chronograph from

Tonino Lamborghini features a triangular-shaped

crystal and dial design that was inspired by the

radically shaped windscreens of Lamborghini's

modern-day supercars. The chunky, PVD-coated

case contains a high-quality, Swiss-made quartz

movement, while the dial, push-pieces and bezel

feature some appropriately sporty red detailing.
