Baselworld is a significant event in the watch world. While you attend, you will see some of the most beautiful watches in the world.

The new designs are interesting and appealing; these watches, whose design and construction stood the test of time, are renowned for their exceptional quality and because they managed to reinvented themselves several times.

Below we have created a list of men’s watches that sets the trend for 2016:

Bremont Boeing 100

This model was created in limited edition, with only 300 watches available. The British watch manufacturer seeks to celebrate Boeing’s 100th anniversary with it’s 43mm titanium chronograph each of which having a piece of carbon fiber composite from the ZA004 Boeing Dreamliner flying testbed in the crown. The design of this watch, with the frame that can be rotated bidirectional and a 42-hour power reserve, makes it good enough to take on a trip. Even the Boeing brown color can be found in the original cockpit.

Patek Philippe Ref. 5930G World Time Chronograph

This is the first watch created by Patek Philippe that contains both a world-time indication and a chronograph. This model is made of white gold and is the thinnest watch in its category, with a thickness of only 13mm. Silver and blue are combined in an elegant way on the three-dial, providing a clear reading of the 23 world time zones and chronograph readouts.

Jaquet Droz Grande Seconde Off-Centered

This design has become quite popular in China. It is difficult not to notice the figure eight, with the overlapping hour, minutes and seconds dials. How the clock looks is unprecedented at Jaquet Droz, though the automatic movement with 68-hour power reserve is the same as in previous brand models.

Chopard L.U.C Perpetual Chronograph

This watch has a COSC and Poinçon certifications and it strands out quite easily because of its large twin-aperture date display. It has a manual flyback chronograph and perpetual calendar, which is something new for the L.U.C line. It is made of white gold and has a dial coated with grey ruthenium.

Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean 600m Master Chronometer

The Omega Seamaster has a new Co-Axial movement with 55-hour power reserve. It’s created using an alloy of palladium, gold and copper called “pink Sedna Gold” that maches perfectly with the black enamel and Ceragold bezel. Also it’s scratch-resistant and it’s even less likely to suffer from discoloration. Also, the dial has polished markers that are filled with high-quality luminant.

Blancpain Fifty Fathoms Bathyscaphe

This watch is waterproof and can be purchased in two versions: with a NATO strap or a sail canvas version with rubber interior. It distinguishes itself by its unidirectional bezel and blue ceramic insert with hour markers made of LiquidMetal.

Vacheron Constantin – The Métiers d’Art Elégance Sartoriale collection

The Métiers d’Art Elégance Sartoriale collection distinguishes itself by the fact that it draw its inspiraton from the attention to details and fine tailoring that is associated with the making of a suit. The background of the dials reflect patterns of menswear and the subdials, that resemble the buttons of a shirt, not only tell the time but also stand out through their unique backgrounds including paisley, floral and geometric shapes. And to make things complete, alligator straps are added.
