Watches & Wonder Highlights 2025: Tudor, Cartier, Rolex, Tag Heuer, IWC & Grand Seiko!

Watches & Wonders 2025 has officially wrapped... and well, Born to Dare? More like born to disappoint, Tudor. In this video, I run through my personal highlights (and lowlights) from this year’s big releases — from the surprisingly cool white dial Explorer II (officially the Rolex Explorer II 226570) to Grand Seiko’s mind-blowing new UFA Spring Drive movement. Rolex dropped a landmark release with the new Land-Dweller (see what I did there), and IWC quietly stole the show with the blacked-out “Darth Vader” Ingenieur. Oh, and TAG? Yeah… maybe leave the haute horology pricing to someone else. I’ll also share thoughts on the new 40mm Patek Philippe Calatrava "Cubitus", the over-the-top Vacheron piece, and a few under-the-radar gems you might’ve missed. Let me know in the comments — which release impressed you, which flopped, and did your grail just drop?
