Another Record-Breaking Westime Charity Night!
At the 13th annual Westime Charity Night at the home of California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, guests donated a historic $9.75 million in support of the After-School All-Stars (ASAS) national children’s charity.

Hosted by After-School All-Stars founder Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger and Westime founder and ASAS board member John Simonian, last weekend’s annual Westime Charity Night raised a record-setting $9.75 million in support of After-School All-Stars, the nonprofit organization Arnold founded more than three decades ago to provide free after-school and summer programs to 150,000 students nationwide. Since its inception in 2013, Westime Charity Night has raised nearly $50 million to further this mission.

At the only public event held at Arnold’s private residence, guests enjoyed a western-themed evening filled with generosity, connection, and celebration, featuring exceptional food, western-style entertainment, celebrity-owned spirits, an intimate home poker game, and an auction showcasing rare items and one-of-a-kind experiences. This year’s attendees included actor Alan Ritchson, Mark Wahlberg, world champion boxer Ryan Garcia, Tia Carrere, Dolph Lundgren, Danny DeVito, Milan Carter and Tom Arnold. Westime President Greg Simonian presented 10 luxury watches donated by Westime and Richard Mille as coveted prizes at the end of the evening.

Can a flyback chronograph still feel minimalist?

The H. Moser & Cie. Streamliner Flyback Chronograph Automatic pairs the HMC 907 movement with centrally displayed chronograph minutes and seconds, keeping the Midnight Blue fumé dial unusually clean.

It’s a thoughtful approach to one of watchmaking’s more technical complications, and one of the details collectors appreciate most about the Streamliner.

Dial, movement, or overall design?

What happens when Moser goes ceramic?

For the first time, H. Moser & Cie. gives the Streamliner a fully integrated ceramic case and bracelet. The contrast comes from a fire-kissed red enamel dial and a flying tourbillon underneath.

The materials feel modern. The complication is anything but new.

Does that contrast work for you?

The SP One is what happens when MB&F takes a quieter approach without losing any of its character.

At 38mm, it’s the brand’s smallest watch, but the architecture is still unmistakable: an oversized balance wheel, inclined dial, and movement elements that seem to float inside the case.

A more restrained MB&F, but still very much MB&F.

Some of the most interesting chronographs are the ones that rethink what a chronograph should look like.

The Streamliner Alpine Drivers Edition moves both elapsed seconds and minutes to the center, removing the conventional subdial layout entirely. Underneath, the skeletonized HMC 700 turns that simplicity into something far more complex.

A different way to think about mechanical timing.

What makes a meteorite dial truly unique?

The new Bell & Ross BR-X5 Meteorite uses Muonionalusta meteorite, estimated at 4.5 billion years old. Its natural Widmanstätten structure means no two dials share exactly the same pattern.

Inside, the COSC-certified BR-CAL.323 delivers a 70-hour power reserve in a 41mm steel case.

A material formed in space, turned into a precision instrument.

Would you choose meteorite for the story, or for the pattern?

Does a watch really need hands?

The Pioneer Flying Hours uses three rotating hour discs orbiting a central minutes display, with each hour jumping instantly into view. Against an aventurine dial, the mechanics feel almost orbital.
Limited to 100 pieces, but the display may be the more interesting part.

Would you wear wandering hours every day?

What happens when El Primero loses the chronograph?

The new ZENITH CHRONOMASTER Solo Sport takes the collection in a different direction: three hands, 40mm steel cases, ceramic dials and the El Primero 3620 beating at 5 Hz.

White, black or brown—and for the purists, a black no-date version.

Same high-frequency DNA. A much simpler expression.

Which one would you choose?
