Every Single Watch Complication, Ranked - Esquire UK

This story is from About Time, Esquire’s free newsletter devoted to the watch world, in your inbox every Sunday. Sign up hereI’m going to start with the standard joke, here. Ready?Watch complications are… complicated.Now, I’m not happy that I had to do that, but there are certain rules when you’re talking about watch complications. That’s the first, and you reel it out because, well, it’s true. And also because it leads into the second – defining what a ‘complication’ is. And for the purposes of…

Sign up to Esquire’s About Time newsletter, style director Johnny Davis’s straight-talking take on the wonderful world of watches.Unless you’re a hardcore horologist or petrol head, you can be forgiven for not knowing the name Ukyo Katayama. To motorsports enthusiasts, he’s the journeyman F1 driver who racked up five Championship points across 97 Grands Prix in the Nineties. For watch enthusiasts, it’s his signature emblazoned on the hardest-to-find Tag Heuer F1 (we’re talking the OG, candy-colo…

Sign up to Esquire’s About Time newsletter, style director Johnny Davis’s straight-talking take on the wonderful world of watches.It was a banner awards season for the watch industry, as a cavalcade of Tanks, Royal Oaks, and Reversos paraded their way down the red carpets. The four-month run from the Gothams to the Oscars is always fruitful for watch spotters, but this year’s harvest was especially bountiful. In large part, that’s a tribute to how adept stylists and brands have become at tailori…

The Best TikTok Watch Accounts All Horology Heads Should Follow - E...

Nominative determinism aside, TikTok is a fascinating place for watches.Horology is a world that makes tectonic drift look adrenalised. And, perhaps unsurprisingly, it’s struggled to find a foothold in the most erratic and unpredictable of social networks. Which is refreshing.With no legacy players to crowd them out, the best watch accounts on TikTok are an at-times confusing – but always entertaining – mix of education, high-stakes drama, bling porn and, this being TikTok, beef between people y…

Why Antiques Roadshow Viewers Lost Their Shit Over This Rolex

Do you know what separates horology weirdos – like yours truly – from muggles? When you see a Seventies Rolex GMT-Master get a £7,000 valuation on Antiques Roadshow and think: is that it?After all, it was only last year that a feet-first red Sub (to the non-weirdos: a Rolex with the ‘Submariner’ name emblazoned in crimson, and the depth rating labelled as ’660ft = 200m’, rather than the other way round) was valued at £20k. Cut to the classic Antiques Roadshow scene of a man swearing he won’t se…

What’s in Store for the MoonSwatch in 2024? An Investigation

If you are the proud owner of an Omega Speedmaster, then that pride might have been dented over Christmas if – as happened to a friend of mine – a young cousin wearing a hat by some inscrutable streetwear brand quizzed you on a) which MoonSwatch variant is that and b) did you put the metal strap on yourself?Galling, no?This is the watch that went to the moon! Well, not this one. But one like it! It’s premium Swiss engineering! To be passed between generations! Not some fad with a shelf-life dict…

Could Tag Heuer Hold the Next MoonSwatch in Its Archives?

You are probably familiar with the 20-year rule; trends re-emerge every two decades or so, like cicadas that feast on popular culture rather than sap. Forecasters claim many inscrutable reasons for this cyclicity but it basically boils down to how long it takes to go from falling in love with something – a sneaker, a song – to being able to either create or buy those things yourself. To wit: Gen Z is dressed like All Saints because fashion and music labels are currently helmed by 30-somethings r…

Why Is the Apple Watch Ultra Suddenly Everywhere?

There are many reasons not to buy the Apple Watch Ultra. It’s an adventure watch that can’t compete with proper adventure watches. It costs twice as much as the Apple Watch 9 and almost as much as a Macbook Air. And it’s about the same size and weight as an actual apple, with zero vitamin C.And yet, by the only available metrics, it is going gangbusters. Apple – not the fruit, but the $181-a-share Apple, a price up more than 30 per cent in recession-teetering 2023 alone – keeps tight-lipped shou…

The Trailer for 'Stardust' Just Makes Us Miss David Bowie Even More...

As poisoned pills go, we can’t think of many more cyanide-dripping than being tasked not just with playing David Bowie, the chameleonic prince of pop, but also writing a bunch of songs that sound like Bowie’s, because your production company couldn’t get the rights.Such is the task facing Johnny Flynn, who’s gamely stepped in David’s platform boots in the trailer for Bowie biopic Stardust. It follows him on tour in the US in the early Seventies, when he was floundering creatively and commerciall…

Tom Holland's Pink Hoodie Does Not Want You To Vote For Biden. Honest

What a week, eh? Phew. In any other timeline, we’d be shocked if the president of the world’s only remaining superpower succumbed to a killer virus, then drove around waving at his Ultras like some mad dictator, then checked himself out of hospital while still contagious and waved to his Ultras, mask-free, from a balcony, like an even madder dictator. But in this timeline? The darkest timeline? Well, at least he didn’t goad anyone into nuclear war on Twitter.Still, it could all start to feel a b…

Interview: 'Tenet' Costume Designer Jeffrey Kurland - Esquire UK

Tenet is a film about many things, from entropy to time travel, Armageddon to environmentalism. But it’s also a film about Robert Pattinson wearing a succession of truly astonishing suits. For that, we thank Jeffrey Kurland.The storied costume designer had previously worked with Nolan on Inception – where he proved his tailoring chops – and Dunkirk, but Tenet posed a very specific set of challenges. The first one being just figuring out what the hell was actually going on. “I read the script at…

Tame Impala Talks His New Album, Forgiving His Father And The Dange...

Let’s start with an indisputable fact: Kevin Parker is not Jesus. He is, admittedly, on earth to spread a kind of salvation. And he has that hair and those warm eyes and the little beard, which combine to make him look like he should be sat at the centre of Leonardo’s Last Supper. But no, Kevin Parker is almost certainly not Jesus.Granted, in the flesh, you might wonder. He has this energy, or perhaps, a lack of energy, that bequiets a room. It’s a kind of stillness, a preternatural calm that se…

The vast majority of high-fashion trainer collaborations are, dare we say it, a touch uninspired. When confronted with yet another luxury label that’s done little more than upgrade the leathers and bung their logo on the tongue, you get the sense that they’re not really connected to the sneakerhead culture thats’ driven this boom in streetwear.And then, just when you’re losing hope for the whole idea, along comes something like the new, jawdropping, just-take-my-money hook-up between Maison Marg…
