What would a collection be without a diver? What would a collection be without a toolwatch? What would a collection be without a robust watch, that can be worn every day, that can be discreet when necessary but can also be flashy? If I had to look for a watch for each category, I would be ruined and I would not know where to start… while my Tag Heuer Aquaracer succeeds in the challenge of ticking all these boxes! And much more! I am not afraid to wear it every day, I spend a certain amount of time at the sea and it accompanies me there, and, big positive point, it can change its look completely by alternating the different bracelets! The nato suits it perfectly, the tropic makes it vintage, a leather gives it an adventurer look, and on the original steel bracelet it is beautiful and simple. In short, an all-in-one watch, surely the one I wear most often, at a reasonable price, and which has more than one string to its bow!

I have always been a big fan of Breitling watches, the Navitimer is in my eyes one of the most iconic watches there is… but I quickly had to get used to the idea that the vast majority of Breitling productions were of a diameter far too imposing for my small wrists… I had to mourn… until I came across this little gem! A superb example from the 60s, in solid gold, with magnificent guilloché work on the cream dial, gold hands too, a Bydinator movement (one of the first rotors to be able to move freely in both directions of rotation), and, the cherry on the cake, a diameter of 34mm! It runs like a modern clock, lasts a little less than 40 hours, and dresses the wrist both discreetly due to its small size, but it has a real presence and crazy class. Old-fashioned charm. For this watch I also went through a whole range of different straps, fine leathers (16mm), others more classic in 18mm (the watch has an atypical lug width of 17mm, which leaves the possibility of playing a little with the different straps), even an old gold steel strap expandable for the Bling side to the end. In short, an exceptional piece that I have immense pleasure in wearing, and which does not fail to catch the eye of connoisseurs and neophytes alike. In the end, you can always find a shoe that fits you...

My first Jaeger…! I have often wondered what my favorite watchmaker was… a difficult question to which I am not sure today that I can give a single and definitive answer… but for sure, and for several years, the Jaeger Lecoultre manufacture is one of those that impose themselves on me and that I carry in my heart. They know how to mix high-flying know-how and sobriety, and their pieces are as impressively poetic and classic as they are relatively discreet. The only small problem… a rather high entry ticket. And that is when, while browsing an online sale, I came across this Club Automatic DayDate. It is sober, simple, but sophisticated at the same time: the deep black background highlights the faceted brushed steel indexes, the day/date window, and contrasts perfectly with the polished case with a slightly cushion shape. The imposing Jaeger buckle gives it a touch of modernity, and it can be worn on stitched leather for a sporty look as well as on crocodile or lizard, which gives it a certain class! In short. A piece that goes everywhere and has many faces, which I have great pleasure in wearing regularly. My first Jaeger Lecoultre… but maybe not my last…?

Jaeger Lecoultre Club, entry ticket!

I bought this Yema a little over 2 years ago now, found at an auction. I had wanted to add a chronograph to my collection for a long time, and when I saw this one I didn't hesitate! Its condition was still very good, the bronze case has a superb patina and gives the watch a unique touch, the light blue tachymeter scale highlights the gold hands, the worked crown adds to the chic side of the whole, the domed mineral glass emphasizes the vintage look... in short, since I have had it, this "little" gem (36mm in diameter and 18mm between the lugs) has been one of my favorites! And it runs like clockwork! With about 40 hours of power reserve once fully wound, it has never let me down! Whether it is mounted on a light suede strap, brown leather, crocodile... everything suits it perfectly! Its little extra...? An openwork sapphire crystal case back that reveals the heart of the watch: a superb Valjoux 92 hand-wound movement. And what a pleasure to hear its clicking, to see all its cogs moving… in short. Like good wine, this Yema has improved with age!

Yema was created in 1948 by Henry Louis Belmont in Besan&ccedil;on in France. It became famous for its sporty and robust watches made in France and in particular the Yema Superman which in 1963 became the first French watch waterproof to 300 meters.

(Updated January 2024)

A watch from an iconic French brand that was the first one with which I really set foot in watchmaking and that I wore every day for many years. It was given to me by my grandmother in 2002 for my 26th birthday and although I don't know why it no longer works today, I still keep it in my collection.

Cr&eacute;&eacute;e en 2017 par le designer Nicolas Ducoudert, Beaubleu apporte une dimension nouvelle &agrave; l&rsquo;horlogerie en cr&eacute;ant des montres &agrave; la fois esth&eacute;tiques, &eacute;tonnantes et profond&eacute;ment symboliques.

Created in 2017 by designer Nicolas Ducoudert, Beaubleu brings a new dimension to watchmaking by creating watches that are aesthetic, astonishing and deeply symbolic. The round hands, signature of the House, reflect singularity and sophisticated simplicity. Each model features a deliciously contemporary design, where every detail, every surface, interacts with light.
Breaking the codes of traditional watchmaking by providing a new vision of time, Beaubleu watches go off the beaten track by featuring round, hollowed-out hands, inspired by the work of Galileo in his understanding of the solar system. These hands poetically display the hours, which do not point to an index or a graduation, but which indicate a position, an instant from the center of the dial.
<h2 dir="ltr">What are the main models of the Beaubleu brand?</h2>
Beaubleu has just announced on June 5, 2024, the launch of a new limited series collection called<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/beaubleu/seconde_francaise"> Beaubleu Seconde Francaise</a>.

<h2 dir="ltr">How much does a Beaubleu watch cost?</h2>
The prices of Beaubleu watches change and differ depending on the model. Most cost between &euro; 800 and &euro; 1,600 according to the references.
