Tonnerre is the French word for Thunder. Interesting name for a German-made watch powered by a Seiko Japanese movement. But that interval between thunder & lightning—that’s a nod to the classic telemeter scale that rings the dial; found in many a mid-century telemeter chronograph. The Tonnerre’s 38mm brushed stainless case and domed crystal sapphire, plus the vintage-inspired dial, brings timeless style to a solid modern design.
With its square & chunky 42mm case, the Bell & Ross limited edition BR-0392 Red Radar looks literally like something pulled from the cockpit of an aircraft.

Seiko draws on 60s-era inspiration for its two newest Presage automatics.

With multiple options for dial and case color, the 40.8mm designs also features vintage-effect details in the crystal and bezel.
Powered by the German watchmakers’ newest in-house movement, the NOMOS Tangente Update is a refined and streamlined automatic with a cool, Midnight Blue dial. The Calibre 6101 movement is unique for its date complication, featuring a ring of numbers at the dial’s edge which lights up the day of the month in glowing green.
