New releases from Omega, Tissot, BA111OD and more

Pietro Pilla

On Valentine’s Day, brands often propose new releases that could work as a his-and-hers pair, with similar styles but different sizes. For instance, this year Omega released a 20-watch Constellation collection with meteorite dials in four sizes. Another option is to introduce a single model with a compact diameter that could work for all kinds of wrists, as with the new Baltic, which features a unisex 36mm case. We have many other gems in this week’s selection as well, discover them all below!
