The Alessi Nuba Chronograph Orange watch has a 40mm wide stainless steel case and unique stainless steel bracelet. Boasting a modern and almost futuristic design the silver dial has three orange sub-dials complimented by a yellow outline as well as the grey pill-shaped time indicators. The watch has luminous hands, date display at 3 o’clock, mineral crystal and is water resistant up to 10 ATM. $189.
This smart looking watch by Giordano boasts handsome looks at a great price. The polished stainless steel case is only 34mm wide but the chunky bracelet gives it a masculine look.

Italo Fontana and Welder Creations always make sexy watches that ooze that Italian appeal. The K29 is made of steaming hot steel in red and black and the case is a whopping 53 mm wide. It has three Miyota movements that operate the chronograph as well as two other time displays and other variations of the K29 come with a silver sub-dial. ~$1,900.
The Angular Momentun La Boulle Classic is a handmade watch and one of the more impressive watches that make up the Day and Night Collection. It has a modified 24-hour indicator with a dial that allows one to easily read the dial and get an am or pm reading. The polished stainless steel rounded case comes in a variety of sizes from 39mm to 47mm. The two-toned dial is easy on the eyes thanks to the gold hands. $TBA.
Here’s yet another work of art by Magrette. There are only 10 pieces of the Lord of the Forest watch which makes sense when you consider the amount of hand-engraved work on this watch. The case, bezel, lugs and even the rotor have all been hand-etched with a classic Maori myth. Technical specifications include a 44mm steel case, a Swiss ETA 2824-2 automatic movement, an in-house MDV GX luminant and black leather strap with red stitching. $4,485.
