Your Weekly Dose of Watches.

Welcome to another week of Time Drops! 🤝 

With Geneva Watch Days happening over the weekend, there was always going to be a whole load of new watches announced! 😅 

Whether released on their own or unveiled at the show, here are some of the hottest drops from the last week! 🔥👇️

🗞️ What’s New?! 🗞️

🔥 G-Shock Launch The GM-700 Series 🔥

Following the teaser in our latest episode of What’s New? G-Shock is set to launch the GM-700 series this September with three striking models! 👊 

These include the Silver GM-700-1A ⚪️ Gold GM-700G-9A 🟡 and the Purple GM-700P-6A. 🟣

Based on the popular GA-700 series from 2017, these watches combine a stainless steel bezel with a durable resin case and band 💪

The GM-700 retains signature rugged features like the bold front light button and offers an impressive 5-year battery life.🔋

The GM-700 is one of the big G-Shocks, and measures 58.4 x 53.4 x 18.6mm, weighing 111 grams, slightly larger than the GA-700 and very much built for those wanting a beast on their wrist. 🦍 

Equipped with module 5522, the GM-700 offers a 1/100-second stopwatch, countdown timer, 5 daily alarms, LED light, full auto-calendar and hand shift functionality. 🌟

In Japan, the GM-700-1AJF is priced at 30,250 yen, which is approx. $205, while the gold and purple ion-plated models are 34,650 yen/ approx. $235 each.💰

🔵 Tudor Black Bay Chrono "Blue" Boutique Edition 🔵

Tudor expands its Black Bay Chrono lineup with the new "Blue" Boutique Edition, seamlessly following up on the buzz around the recent "Pink" model. 💥

This latest release features a distinctive blue dial with a matching tachymeter bezel. In fact, at the time of writing, this is the only Black Bay Chrono with a coloured bezel. 🔵✨

Of course, the watch maintains the classic Black Bay Chrono design with a 41mm stainless steel case and a bicompax chronograph display. 🕛️ 

Powered by the COSC-certified Calibre MT5813, the watch boasts a 70-hour power reserve and is automatically wound. ⚡️

Exclusively available only through select Tudor boutiques, the Black Bay Chrono "Blue" Boutique Edition is priced at £4,880.💰️

Given the success of the pink edition, I suspect this new blue timepiece will follow suit.💥 

🥊 The Battle for the Thinnest Watch Continues! Konstantin Chaykin’s ThinKing Prototype 🤯

At Geneva Watch Days, Russian independent brand Konstantin Chaykin unveiled the ThinKing, a groundbreaking prototype that's just 1.65mm thick! 🤯

This ultra-thin watch enters the ongoing battle for the thinnest mechanical timepiece, competing with notable entries from Piaget, Richard Mille, and Bulgari. 👀 

The ThinKing is a 40mm steel-cased watch & incorporates the signature "Wristmon" face-like design. 🤡 

With displays for hours and minutes resembling eyes and a signature smile engraving on the case front. 😊

Powered by the K.23-0 manually wound movement, the watch offers a 32-hour power reserve and features a double balance system and single ultra-thin winding barrel. 🕐️ 

Due to the watch's extreme thinness, the strap includes alligator leather with elastic inserts, as well as titanium to support stress from wrist movement. 🐊 

Right now, this is just a prototype, so the ThinKing is not yet available for purchase.

Pretty insane though, right?! 🤯

🍇 H. Moser x Studio Underd0g's Passion Fruit Duo 🕰️

Next up, H. Moser & Studio Underd0g have teamed up to release a vibrant duo of limited edition "Passion Fruit" watches.🍸️ 

This collaboration offers a unique blend of Moser's refined watchmaking with Studio Underd0g's playful design ethos, resulting in a set of two timepieces that are as eye-catching as they are mechanically impressive. 👀 

H. Moser Endeavour Perpetual Calendar Passion Fruit

This watch features Moser's signature minimal perpetual calendar design, enhanced by a stunning purple lacquer dial with grand feu enamel. 🟣🟡 

It's powered by the HMC 800 calibre, offering a 7-day power reserve and displaying date, month and leap year indicators. ⚙️

Studio Underd0g Passion Fruit 03Series

Similarly, this monopusher chronograph showcases a coarse dégradé amber and royal purple dial. 🟣🟡

Powered by the Sellita SW510 M movement, it offers a 63-hour power reserve and comes with a playful green-tipped seconds hand, adding a nod to the fruit's seeds.

The Passion Fruit set is limited to just 100 pairs & interestingly, only available as a set, priced at $64,900.💰️

🟠 G-Shock Unveils The Functional Logo Series! 🟠

Each watch in this series sports a distinctive black "Functional Logo" on the upper band, as well as a QR code linking to the official Casio G-Shock website, offering a techy touch. 🕹️ 

This collection includes the GA-B001FL-4A (22,000 yen/ approx. $150)👇️
