Perhaps IWC’s new 40mm wide Ingenieur dress watch was the most talked about new Ingenieur piece for 2013, but for those who like larger sport watches these more simple-dialed Ingenieur pieces will fit the bill.

A. Lange & Sohne Grand Lange 1 Watch Hands-On
One of A. Lange & Sohne’s more quiet new releases for 2012 was this redesigned version of the Grand Lange 1 watch. Last year they released the great looking Lange 1 Daymatic with an automatic movement, and this year the Lange 1′s slightly bigger brother gets and update.

A new Formula 1 driver based watch from Audemars Piguet is this new Royal Oak Offshore Jarno Trulli.

It is possible that ending with the AP ROO Grand Prix, designer Octavio Garcia felt that the [...]
