He was responsible for inventing the world’s first rewinding watches, which ultimately developed into the revolutionary automated winding system, marking an iconic point in the watch industry.
In 1995, the Perrelet watch brand was re-launched with a contemporary twist and the iconic Perrelet Double Motor was developed which became a highly prominent model in the watch industry. All materials used to create Perrelet watches are of an exceptionally high quality; Perrelet watch cases are made with metals including platinum and palladium, and 18k gold with subtle hints of pink tones for added colour definition in addition to smooth yet extremely resistant stainless steel and light and durable titanium. All Perrelet watches featuring leather or rubber straps also include folding clasps with double push buttons for added comfort, security and safety.

The TechnoMarine Cruise Diamond collection is an incredibly striking range with the watches featuring highly polished stainless steel cases complete with diamond encrusted bezels and Citizen OS60 movement. The TechnoMarine Cruise Mini watches are also worth a mention and perfect if you are looking for the full TechnoMarine functionality and vibrancy but with a smaller aesthetic. In a range of attractive colours including pink, blue and white and with features such as transparent gel straps and Mother of Pearl finished dials, TechnoMarine watches boast the ultimate elite style factor with the added element of glamour and superior technical innovation.
Versace Watches
Our next Elite brand comes in the form of Versace watches. The Versace watch collection comprises of a selection of luxury watches for men and women and perfectly captures the element of high-end fashion alongside exceptional quality.

The Versace Gents range includes a selection of Versace watches for men with a slightly more sporty appeal and featuring elements such as ceramic bracelet straps, sapphire crystal glass, automatic analogue movement and push button deployment clasps. Versace watches are designed to meet a highly varied range of style desires and thus the models capture and represent every element from understated chic to charismatic and boldly luxurious. Antique Grecian symbols and Medusa emblems are positioned upon the crown of each Versace watch to convey the unity of past and future fashion trends and are also symbols that the late Gianni Versace was personally highly inspired by.
Each model within the Versace watch collection incorporates refined Swiss movement ensuring perfect function, precision and reliability. Versace watches are ultimately designed for charismatic and confident individuals who instantly recognise timeless, exquisite style and flawless quality.
U-Boat will be back in stock early September.

TechnoMarine Watches Unveils New Cruise Sport Collection
TechnoMarine Unveils New 'Cruise Sport' Watch Collection
As you may have seen, we recently launched our Elite watch section which includes the ultra sophisticated, stylish and functional TechnoMarine watches.
If you like what you have seen so far from TechnoMarine then you will be pleased to know that a further collection within the range is due to be launched named the Cruise Sport collection which was unveiled at Baselworld 2010 – the world’s leading watch and jewellery exhibition.
The existing and varied TechnoMarine Cruise collections have really placed the brand on the map with their fun, flirty vibrantly coloured designs and the unique material combination of diamond and plastic. The Cruise watches quickly became the hottest watches to be seen wearing and now the latest Cruise Sport collection takes that to the next level but with a slightly different and more understated tone of style.
The TechnoMarine Cruise Sport collection is a revamped interpretation of the signature Cruise collection with a streamlined aesthetic that is perhaps a little less elaborate and without any embellishments but equally striking and boasting a strong and fierce presence!
The strap is made from silicone which has a softer finish and is more flexible upon the wrist and the TechnoMarine Cruise Sport 
watches are water resistant up to 200m. Available in a chronograph or 3-hand style, the new watches feature a re-designed bezel which is smoother and sleeker. The dial hands are wider to convey the essence of a strong sense of purpose and the re-envisioned 3D dial has a new depth and added definition which is testament to TechnoMarine’s superior technical innovation.
In terms of aesthetic style, the Cruise Sport has a stealth-like black finish which is effectively enhanced by subtle pops of colour featured in the bezel, minute hand and tachymeter which include purposely selected shades of white, blue, fuchsia, green, and orange. These colours are specifically chosen to signify and convey the brand’s invigorating ‘live for the moment’ and adventurous attitude whilst also of course allowing the watches to transcend through seasonal trends, climates and occasions. The new TechnoMarine Cruise watches look equally amazing at sea on a diving adventure as they do in the boardroom or dressed up for a chic evening out at the finest restaurant in town and also possess the incredible function and quality to support the immaculate, streamlined and sophisticated style.
The new TechnoMarine Cruise Sport collection is a further reminder of how the brand has successfully placed itself at the forefront of watch innovation, design and style. The collection will be available in June (we’ll be sure to let you know when!) and we just know that they are guaranteed to impress!
If you haven’t done so already, you can check out the current range of stunning TechnoMarine watches here.

U-Boat watches were originally intended to be worn by the Italian Navy and are therefore designed to endure the most extreme of weather and light conditions. The most distinctive physical factor which separates U-Boat watches from others is that the crown is positioned on the left-hand side; a unique and unexpected design feature which also enhances and compliments the bold aesthetic of U-Boat watches including the oversized numerals and markers. Every U-Boat watch is powered by Swiss ETA movements and each model is contained within an oversized stainless steel case ranging from a large 45 millimeters to an impressive 55 millimeters in diameter. From traditional and refined to sporty and ultra contemporary, U-Boat watches incorporate red, yellow, and orange PVD-treated crystals and precious metals uniquely fused with rubber and steel.
