Snoopy dances happily in the register at 9 o’clock but the pièce de résistance is the caseback, so much so that you will want to wear it on the reverse.

First, the freshest of fresh blue in the tough fabric strap that sets the tone for an unexpected dial of a pure silvery white, with all blue details, from the classic handset, the recessed registers – right down to the indices. Price: CHF19,200 Omega Snoopy 50th Anniversaryįinally, a Snoopy version of the Speedmaster made accessible, and instead of going safe, Omega pulled out the stops for this one. Even if I feel my wrist needs a proper workout schedule to wear this muscular version of the Alpine Eagle, the new detailed dial and the pop of a red seconds hand tip makes for a strong contender in the integrated bracelet game and a very tempting proposition. This time we are going large at 44mm while retaining its intricate dial structure - broken up by the sporty touch of chronograph functionality. Chopard Alpine Eagle XLĪs one of the best dials of 2020, the Alpine Eagle surprised and delighted with its dazzling and ethical steel alloy, and bold re-creation of its ’80s inspiration. Unashamedly large at, yet light, the dramatic monochrome is accented by just the right amount of fresh red, in the fun jet fighter seconds hand counter balance, delicate pointer in the 6 o’clock register, and the pushers. The SFTI edition of the chronograph from the Top Gun line is a limited edition ceramic-cased 44mm weapon, with a Ceratanium caseback. This is an uncompromising black chronograph, requiring you to take your mission seriously. If you associate IWC only with the classicism of the Portugieser, then you need to wake up. The presence is one of bombproof strength, and even with the black details toughening up the act, it has a warm presence through the use of the trademark King Gold alloy. The case and thick bracelet are brushed with bold striations, and broad, decisive angular bevels create flashes of reflection that – if you had any doubts – mean this is not for the shy of wrist. The 42mm version in King Gold is as lustruous as it is brash, yet infused with a technical attention to detail and chronograph functionality. Yes, finally Hublot took the anticipated step into the strong integrated bracelet game, with their usual flair and bold lines. Price: CHF49,500 Hublot Big Bang Integral King Gold The functionality is as strong as the gold dial is vibrant, with blued hands and teardrop lugs completing a pure vintage composition of delightful contrasts that will pull you in. The shape is delightfully round, with an unfeasibly smooth transition from pink gold bezel to case side, with oblong pushers and vintage-styled crown as proportionate as they are delightful.
