New releases from Jaeger-LeCoultre, H. Moser & Cie, Massena LAB x Raúl Pagès and more
Pietro PillaThis week has been all about collaborations, both from the big box brands as well as the independents. From William Massena and Raúl Pagès, Christopher Ward and Studio Underd0g, Ressence and Marc Newson to Louis Erard and Worn & Wound, it became clear that sometimes sharing ideas yields more results than the sum of its parts. Some projects took several months, others even several years, but the results did not disappoint. Discover them all and enjoy the reading!
