These new watches are insanely beautiful

Insanely beautiful watches. Today I've got 20 brand new watches for 2026 to show you. All of them look a million bucks, offer great value for money and hopefully they'll all make you smile too. From a brand new affordable Tissot to one of the best looking chronographs that I've ever seen. Trust me, you're not going to want to miss these watches. And I've even got a $50 watch that you've never seen before. Okay, let's start with a bit of a hidden gem. This is the Lima GMT Transit in teal. You've likely never seen this brand covered on YouTube because they haven't had much coverage, but let me tell you, these guys make some really good looking watches and I think you should take notice. This particular watch is a new color variant of their Transit GMT. In terms of style, it goes after that Explorer sort of field watch design. Large flat brushed bezel, quarter hour Arabic numerals, a bit like the Rolex Explorer. And then you've got a set of skeletonized hands, but they're done in black so they really stand out against the teal dial. It feels like every single element on this watch has been carefully thought out. Even the GMT function doesn't get in the way like it often can. The case is quite boxy, maybe even a bit brutalist, but I think in totality, it looks a million bucks. In terms of spec, you get an automatic GMT movement inside of here, a K1 domed mineral crystal, not the best, but acceptable. But price is only $310 USD, including your taxes, which I think is super compelling for this watch. But if you've got a little bit more money to spend and you want to get something that's retro looking, check out these three new colorways of the awesome Intramatic Chronograph by Hamilton. Originally, this came in Panda and Reverse Panda. However, there's now some new colors that take watch to another level. So it now comes in blue, comes in green, and a lovely burnt orange. For me, the orange is the pick of the bunch. I think this one looks exceptional. And this is a hand-wound Swiss-made mechanical chronograph. That means you need to wind it every single day to keep this watch running. So you will develop a proper connection with this watch, which is why I like mechanical chronograph so much. But I compact, so the dial is nice and clean. Also delivers that retro chronograph vibe. Comes in at the 40 millimeter sweet spot. However, it is a little bit thicker because of that chronograph movement. But in terms of chronographs, for me, this is one of the very best ones you can buy regardless of price point. Stone Sapphire, mechanical chronograph Swiss movement. Price on these comes in at around 2,000 USD, depending on where you buy it from. Okay, and now we're covering that $50 gem. Get ready for this. So this is a watch from DWC. They're called the Deli Watch Company. And this particular model is called the Terra. Now, it's somewhat a field watch, right? Especially with that dial design. But let's be honest, this watch is all about this insane case. So it's rectangular in shape, but then it also has some skeletonized sections. And this case was actually inspired by a carabiner, you know, like you climb with. That means that the strap actually slides in and out of the case from each side. I've never seen a watch that looks like this before, and that's why I like it so much. Titanium case, acrylic crystal, quartz movement. So, you know, you're not getting tons of spec here, but you know, remember this is only 50 USD. The first batch of these sold out. I can see why. However, DWC are restocking these at the end of April. So if you fancy getting one, maybe sign up to the newsletter. I think I'll be getting one of these myself because it's just so cheap. I might as well. Then next up, we have one of the best looking GMTs that I've ever seen. This is the new Beaucroft Contour GMT. This one for me is all about that dial. Just look at it. There is so much going on in terms of the finishes, in terms of the shapes, but I think they've done a great job of merging it all together so it doesn't look chaotic. You've got those lovely large leaf hands. The GMT feature on this one has been reduced to an inner ring, which I always like because it doesn't clutter up the dial and reduce legibility, and it comes with the beautiful element case. That means you get a lovely sweep from lug to lug. The case finishing is exceptional, and these watches are now assembled in-house by Beaucroft themselves. Price £795. My own 9.075 movement sapphire crystal. Great value on offer, but I just think this one looks so damn good. Okay, then next up, we've got another watch that you've likely never seen before. I've been hunting for some gems recently. So this is the Signature by Cero Watch Company, and this is just one hell of a good-looking dress watch. So there's four dial options within this range. Red, blue, silver, and gold. All of them come with heat-treated blue hands. All of them feature a lovely set of Breguet numerals. My favourite feature of this watch is the brushed metallic dial. That means it's going to play with the light and catch the eye. I also appreciate that these are a little bit smaller in size. 37 millimetres wide and just 9.5 millimetres thick. These are currently on pre-order, €899, but that does include a manual wind Swiss movement in the back of it, so I do think you get some decent value for money here. Now next up, we're visiting AliExpress. Everyone's favourite place to grab a bargain. So this is the new Watchdives WD0016, and this of course goes after that integrated bracelet sports watch vibe, right? Royal Oak, Tech Nautilus, Vacheron 222, etc. I don't think this watch breaks any new ground. It's not introducing something we've never seen before, but I just think it looks good. It's got those hooded flanks a little bit like the Nautilus. The bracelet feels very Vacheron, but then the actual flatness to the case feels very AP. So because of that, this one is a true homage, not just a rip-off like most watches on AliExpress. Quite a lot of dial options with this one, including some stone dials My favourite though is actually the all-black version without any indexes. Stainless steel, sapphire, mecha quartz. These come in around 200 USD, which is really good value for money. Of course, I'll leave this one affiliate links below if you want to check it out. Next up, we've got that new Tissot, and this one is very good looking. So Tissot have released a new version of their Viso Day. This comes in at 39mm, so it makes for a great everyday watch, and stylistically, it is made to be a great everyday watch. Three dial options. So you've got blue, you've got silver with golden accents, and then there's a regular black dial option. Beads of rice style bracelet, I think it looks a million bucks on this. It leans into that vintage vibe of the dial. Dial design is clean, very Oyster Perpetual, Omega Aqua Terra vibes, but there are a couple of finishes within that dial to offer just a little bit of detail. Automatic movement, sapphire crystals, and price around 800 USD. Not bad for a big name like Tissot. Then we've got another sports watch, but probably the best looking of the lot. So this is the new Venetianico Arsenale 37. The Arsenale is just a masterpiece in terms of the silhouette. The finishing is genuinely incredible on this watch, and I think they've absolutely nailed the dial designs too. So this is a new version of the popular Arsenale, right? First of all, it comes in a smaller size, 37mm, which means it's going to look a lot more elegant on the wrist. But then also, Venetianico added some new pearl dial finishes to this new range, which for me, dresses it up alongside that smaller case size. One thing I love about the Arsenale, it's only 9mm thick, and you can feel that on the wrist. This one looks dressy and sporty at the same time, meaning that you can wear it as a dress and an everyday. Price, 850 Euros, sapphire, my 0-9 series. Can't argue with that. Then we've got one of the craziest watches that I've seen this year, but also one of the most technically impressive for the money. This is the New Monroe Lunar Adventure. I have reviewed this on the channel, and I was very impressed with it. Story here is that these are inspired by planets, you know, planets in a solar system. That's delivered by stones on the dial that are made to look like planets, but then the outer dial is made to look like a spaceship window, so it literally looks like you're peering out of a rocket looking at a planet. Very cool. But that's not everything. You see, when you flip the case on its side, it features a vented mid case with a luminous core within that shines through the case. Then you can flip the watch over, you can see the custom rotor, which also looks a million bucks. Yeah, this watch just looks good all over. It's not just one angle, it's everywhere. My 0-9 series, stone dials, sapphire crystals. Price on these on pre-order, about 520 pounds. Then we've got unusual, but I think this looks so cool, and I wish I was cool enough to wear this one, but I don't think I am. So this is the new Yema Wristmaster Slim Small Seconds in camo, and it's not just a camo dial like some brands might do. Yema have put camo on the case of the watch. Now, it's a snow camo, so you wouldn't want to wear this one in the jungle. It might stand out, but if you're fighting in the Arctic, it might be the best watch to take with you. You've got a cog-like bezel, although it is hard to see with that camo finish. You've then got an asymmetrical dial design with that sub seconds off to the left-hand side, and for me, the best thing about this watch is when you flip it over, you're getting Yema's in-house micro-rotor movement. This isn't a watch where the beauty is only skin deep, it's the full thing. Now, don't get me wrong, you are paying more for that in-house micro-rotor movement. This one comes in at 2,249 euros, but let's be honest, it looks good. It's got a cool movement. I think it's worth considering. Okay, then we've got one of my favorite dress watches released so far this year. This one looks pretty cool. Denison has been making a ton of noise recently. They even won a GPHG this year, which is the Oscars for watches, and this one is a bit of an evolution of their ALD model. So, this is called the Shades, and this is a dual-time dress watch, but instead of a GMT feature, this one literally features two dials on the head of the watch. Now, it comes in three colors. You can get blue, brown, and green, and this is the first time that Denison has actually offered a bracelet with one of their watches. It's sort of got a pebbled finish to it, very reminiscent of old-school dress watches. You don't really see this style of these days. Because there's almost two dials on there, you are getting two quartz movements inside. You're getting a sapphire crystal, priced just over £500. It's not the most insane value for money you'll find out there, but in terms of style, I think it's right up there with the best-looking dress watches right now. Now, I've got another sports watch for you. For some reason, I've featured a lot of them today. I don't know why. So, this is the new San Martin SN0149, and I think this might be the best-looking watch that San Martin has ever made. So, there's three color options, a golden dial, a silver dial, and then a mixture between the two. And the reason I like this one is because it doesn't feel like any other sports watch you can currently buy. It's got a solid bar bracelet, quite a flat case, it's got a rounded brushed bezel, and then a metallic dial with the San Martin design cues in terms of that hand set. I don't think this one's trying to be flashy or over-the-top like sports watches often can be. It's sort of a utilitarian sports watch with a metallic dial. It's quite a juxtaposition. Obviously, this is a San Martin, so you are getting really good value for money. Miyota 9 series, automatic movement inside, and finishing on San Martin watches is always insane. Price is around 350 USD, which for the spec on offer and the quality that they usually deliver, you can't argue with that. Now, I've got another option for you that's a little bit more expensive, but I think this one is pretty special. Wait till you see it. So, British micro brand, Duckworth Prestex, have done something pretty special here. This is the new Mikato, and this is their Jumping Hour Limited Edition. Now, Jump Hours have been hot recently. I've even got another one coming up later in the video. This one, though, is pretty special because it features an in-house Jumping Hour module. It's been built on top of a Sellita SW300 Swiss automatic movement, which is a quite high-end movement that the likes of Christopher Ward use. And the reason I like this one in particular is because that Jumping Hour is actually off to the 9 o'clock. Now, what that means is when the hour actually jumps over, it's not going to be blocked by the minute hand. A lot of people complained about the Christopher Ward Jump Hour because that was its Achilles heel. Not here, though, because of that 9 o'clock placement. Now, there's four options here in terms of dial finish, with three of them including a beautiful guilloché center. 39mm case, only 11.75mm thick, sapphire crystal, automatic, and the pre-order price is £1,650, which is expensive, but you're getting a bespoke Jump Hour module inside of here, so understandable. Now, we've got another new watch that you've likely not seen on YouTube yet. This is fresh off the press. So, this is a new watch from Undone, and this is called the Slim Watch. I know, not very inventive, but the shoe literally fits here. So, this watch comes in at 4.9mm thick. For a modern watch, that's truly insane, right? You don't see watches this slim these days. Now, it is only a two-hand quartz, which is why it is so slim, but with the 37mm case, 43 lug-to-lug, this watch is going to wear like a dream on the wrist. Yes, it's another integrated bracelet sports watch, but because it's slimmer and because it's smaller, for me, this is more of a dress watch than a sports watch now. Daggered handset, simple stick indexes, and a completely silver finish all over the watch. No confirmed price on these yet, but Undone usually operate at around $300 to $500 USD, and given that it features a quartz movement, I think this one will be on the more affordable side. Okay, now it's time for that chronograph. This is one of the best-looking chronographs I've ever seen. So, this is the new Kuo Royal Smith 90-012, and for any of you who watched my Wind Up New York vlog, you'll remember that I talked about this chronograph, that I couldn't show it on camera. Well, now I finally can. Here it is. So, this is a dress chronograph. Most chronographs go down the racing-inspired route, some the pilot route. This one, though, is purely dress, and I absolutely love it. So, it's bi-compact. It features a date down at the 6. It features multiple dial finishes, including a grain texture on the outer. We've then got sunburst on the sub-dials, and then a brushed metallic section in the centre. Applied Breguet numerals that look incredible on this one. I also think they nailed the choice of bracelet here. There's three colourways with this new Kuo, however, currently, all of them are sold out. I can see why. Of course, they'll be back in stock soon, sign up to the newsletter, etc, etc. But listen, you don't get many automatic chronographs that look this good, and they're this compact at just 37mm in size. Yes, it's more expensive, nearly 2 grand, but it is an automatic chronograph, so that's understandable. Okay, next up, we're continuing with the impressive complications. If you haven't yet seen it, Erebus released the 24. This is a field watch that features a jumping-hours complication. Basically, once every 12 hours, the numerals jump over to a new set. So, you either get 1-12 or 13-24. You get endless dial options, as usual with Erebus, and it even comes in two sizes. You can get 38 or 40. Say what you want about Erebus, this is a very impressive watch from them, mechanically. I also think it's very good-looking, especially the contour dial. For me, it's an absolute winner. These are on pre-order, 549 USD. However, of course, there is a wait, because it's pre-order. Now, we're visiting another Swiss brand with another beauty. So, this is the new Raymond Vale Milliseam Small Seconds. And listen, if I was putting a top 3 together, in terms of the best-looking watches on this video, I think this one would be in the top 3. This one is purely about the design, about the aesthetics, because for me, it just delivers pure beauty. Now, what makes this one new? Well, it's the first Milliseam that actually features a Small Seconds complication. For me, though, it's not interrupted the beautiful symmetry of the Milliseam, with the Arabic numeral ring and that sector central section. For me, this one is firing on all fronts. Yet, a Swiss automatic inside, sapphire, stainless steel, and the finishing on this watch is genuinely exceptional. I've had one of these in office now for a couple of weeks. I've been really enjoying it. The 39mm case wears like an absolute dream on my wrist. These are on the more expensive side, because they are Swiss-made watches. This is sort of entry-level luxury here. It's around 2 grand, depending on if you want the leather or the bracelet. Now, we're coming on to the final 3, and I want to finish strong here. So, let me introduce you to the out-of-order Forma Venti. Now, if you know out-of-order, they're a brand that mostly produces dive watches. And the thing separates them from other brands is that they usually sell watches that look like they've been beaten up. So, not vintage-inspired watches, watches that actually look vintage. Well, this one is a complete departure, because it's nothing like that. You could say that the brand has sort of sold out a little bit to maybe jump on a trend with this one. However, listen, if the watch is good-looking, I'm going to talk about it. So, this Forma Venti is a jump hour watch, and it sort of goes after that Cartier style, right? Rectangular case, black dial, and then cutouts for the jump hour feature. The hour is, of course, on a jumping disc at the top. Then, we have a constant rotating disc for the minutes and the seconds. Now, it does use a seagull movement inside of here, because that's pretty much the only movement available. And that does mean, unfortunately, this watch is quite thick. It's 10 millimeters for a rectangular watch. That is on the chunkier side for this style. But in terms of price, taxes included, $770 USD. That includes free shipping as well. I think that's pretty impressive. The first two batches of this have sold out already, and I can see why. I'm a fan of this watch too. However, there's another one coming at the end of the month. So, again, keep an eye on the website if you like the look of it. And we're staying with that dress watch style. However, this one is very different. Vario have just released some new colorways of their Futurist watch. And let me tell you, if you've never seen this watch before, you're in for a treat. So, the case is long, quite angular. It features a fluted upper case section. Not a fluted bezel, a fluted case. But let's be honest, the star of the show here is the crystal. It features a gemstone-esque sapphire crystal that plays with the light like you've never seen before. As well as that, some really striking dial finishes that really accentuate that crystal finish. But just because these watches look a bit insane, you need to take them seriously. My Ota 9 series movement, those crystals are very expensive to produce, let me tell you. And because this is Vario, you get an excellent quality leather strap. Price on these, 640 USD. And a couple of these have already sold out. I think it's because they look so unusual. And then we've got a stunning new Pilot GMT. This is the new Marlowe Skysplitter. And it goes after that Flieger look, but with a modern twist. I think the Flieger has been done to death. It's nice to see a fresh take on it. There's quite a lot of unusual features going on here with the dial that, for me, makes it feel individual. For example, the aeroplane tip to the GMT hand. I think it looks cool. The yellow and black counterbalance to the seconds hand. Again, it's just a nice little touch. But you still get the triangle and the two dots. You still get the very large sword handset on this one. So, although it looks unusual, it still delivers insane legibility as usual with the Flieger. Assembled in-house here in Great Britain. 40mm case, Miyota 9075 True GMT movement. The best part, though, might be the price. £599. For a Miyota 9 series that's assembled in the UK with a design that looks this good, that one is pretty special. If you want more watches, though, here's another video with 20 beautiful options. See you over there.
