Haven't seen these before, Citizen BM8560 series, looks like European releases. Nice eco-drive titanium military / pilot style. 42mm, under $250. I need a green watch...

These look great. Will be a tough choice between these and the Seiko SRPG 5s — Eco Drive titanium vs. auto steel.

EDIT: Are those applied indices?

I hate to dilute my brand but after the TJM Airboss and my Startimer I’ve decided I’m gonna wear stuff I like and worry a little less about size. Doesn’t mean I still don’t wish everything was 38mm :lol:

There’s always the PMD56-2951 in 39-40mm. Not new. Amazing all over. Too small for me.

Or the very similar auto models: NJ0100

Hard to say. They do seem to be floating above the background texture, but could still be printed on. Looks like plenty of lume, regardless.

Not the watch I would've expected to be released by B&M.

Baume Skate - Aurélien Giraud Special Edition # 10653

https://www.baume-et-mercier.com/us/en/ ... 10653.html

Price is $1,550

The Baume Skate - Aurélien Giraud Special Edition is a unique timepiece based on upcycling. It features a case made out of skate decks, a dial using skate grip tape and is mounted on a black cotton strap with tag and overlays. The perfect timepiece for skateboard afficionados, curated by Aurelien Giraud himself.

Casing made out of skate decks, dial in grip tape mixing red and blue tones echoing Aurelien’s favourite colours, out-of-the-box time display, the Baume Skate Special Edition is the quintessence of style and upcycling process. The Baume collection aims to express watchmaking differently with a minimalist design in an alternative approach. Baume collection goes further by proposing original time displays and pieces made with natural and upcycled or recycled materials.

2% of the proceeds from the sale of each watch will be donated to the NGO Waste Free Oceans.

Back to the Alpina community project; had a reply from them, they don’t post to the UK so I assume the same for the US and Canada- bit odd

Panerai on South Beach diet. Not a major new release, but I like the sandwich dialand hands. Jubelee bracelet is nice. And decent specs/ price otherwise.
