It’s almost here! As we count down to the longest day of the year on June 20, we’ve got an XL Hot List for you. This week, we’re pulling back the curtain on an incredible UN, a very special Oris, and THREE special pieces from Zenith! Let’s get it!
ULYSSE NARDIN FREAK X GOLD ENAMEL
The Freak is no stranger to gold, and blue dials are some of the most popular references in the collection’s storied history. Now, they finally meet! Announced this week, this one “freakures” a gorgeous enamel dial set beneath the famous exposed mechanics that bring time-telling and engineering together
PARMIGIANI FLEURIER TONDA PF GMT RATTRAPANTE VERZASCA
Named for the Swiss municipality of Verzasca, this Tonda PF spruces up Parmigiani’s groundbreaking rattrapante With a gold GMT indicator that can perfectly “hide” behind the hour hand when not needed, it’s one of the most innovative examples of haute haute horology at Feldmar.
ZENITH DEFY
Going into 2025, we knew it’d be a big year for Zenith. Celebrating 160 years of watchmaking, the brand has already wowed us with some very special blue releases (more on that later). This week, the Defy collection got an adjustment with serious attitude: special neon yellow versions of both the 43mm Extreme Diver and 37mm Revival Which one are you reaching for?
CHRONOSWISS SMALL SECONDS DESERT

Who’s ready for desert? Wait… were we not talking about ice cream? Either way, the newest Chronoswiss at Feldmar is SWEET. Pairing a captivating tan dial with electric blue markers/hands was an inspired move while the guilloched sub-dial is the cherry on top
ZENITH CHRONOMASTER ORIGINAL LAPIS LAZULI
As mentioned, Zenith’s been partying nonstop for its 160th year with a bevy of blue watches. One of our favorites is surely this Chronomaster Triple Calendar featuring a dial made from real lapis lazuli Because of its natural variation, no two dials are alike! We’re giving the one in our showcase (seen above) a perfect “10” since it’s got the perfect markings!
TUDOR BLACK BAY 58
Burgundy Black Bay? It’s not just a mythical harbor in land-locked eastern France. One of the top releases from Watches & Wonders 2025, the ultimate tool watch now takes on an even more head-turning appearance! The deep, red dial sits beneath a sapphire crystal that’s, well, crystal clear
ANGELUS FLYING TOURBILLON
Iconoclastic collectors evangelize Angelus That’s fun to say, but it’s also true. The brand has been quietly building up since being revived by La Joux-Perret in 2010. Now part of Citizen, Angelus’ close ties to one of Switzerland’s best movement manufacturers explains how it can pull off something other brands only dream of: a flying tourbillon!
ORIS PROPILOT
Each year since 2020, Oris has debuted a special Hölstein edition watch as a special showcase. Limited to just 250 pieces, they’re always a hot commodity. This year’s version is part of the ProPilot line and features a fully-lumed dial with a twist Want a preview? Click through to the product page to see for yourself!
GRAND SEIKO HERITAGE HI-BEAT SBGH353
Rules were meant to be broken. Which is why Grand Seiko chose to pair the unmistakeable pink dial of its SBGH353 with a green seconds hand! That clash of contrasts might be jarring, but in its own way, shows the total harmony that make Grand Seikos famous. Eminently wearable, this Heritage Hi-Beat is smooth!
SEIKO PROSPEX 1968 HERITAGE DIVER’S GMT SPB475
Seiko’s U.S.-Exclusive SPB475 pairs vintage inspiration with modern mechanics, powered by the high-performance 6R54 GMT movement with a 3-day power reserve Inspired by the landmark 1968 Diver’s Watch, this model honors Seiko’s legacy while showcasing its latest mechanical GMT innovation.
BAUME & MERCIER RIVIERA AUTOMATIC CHRONOGRAPH
Don’t sleep on the Riviera! Unless you’re on vacation at Cannes, that is. This heritage-inspired chronograph from Baume & Mercier has tons of old-world charm thanks to a sector layout and the Riv’s signature Roman numerals.
GIRARD-PERREGAUX LAUREATO 42MM
As spice-fiends know, sometimes, the smallest pepper is the hottest So it makes sense the Laureato in black ceramic is a sleeper too. With a no-nonsense appearance at first glance, this G.P. packs some real venom in the award-winning movement!
