20 New Watches You Missed from Seiko, Timex, IWC and More

Nivada reworks its Paul Newman-dialed Chronosport into the Autochron, featuring a new chapter ring, a ratcheting 120-click bezel, a streamlined dial and bold orange accents.

Baltic joins Time and Tide’s 2026 Founder Fest with a sporty reimagining of the Heures du Monde. The original stone dial is replaced with the Franch brand’s first forged carbon dial. It also comes on an elastic nylon hook strap, not available on previous models. The worldtime bezel now features Melbourne, London and New York, filled with blue lacquer as a nod to Time and Tide’s Studio locations. It will be available for purchase online for 24 hours only on September 22, or in person at one of Time and Tide’s three global Studios in Melbourne, London, and New York City.

Inspired by Seiko’s first wristwatch, the 1913 Laurel, this Craftsmanship series Presage Classic features a glossy black Urushi Lacquer dial plate marked with a printed shimmering gold Breguet numeral hour track and synchronized 24-hour subdial. The hands and case are gold-plated, and it comes on a black leather strap with a matching folding clasp.

Seiko replicates the dial of its very first wristwatch, the 1913 Laurel, on a Craftsmanship series enamel dial, including the Breguet numerals with a red 12. It features blue leaf hands and a synchronized 24-hour time subdial. It runs on a Seiko Caliber 6R5H automatic movement with a three-day power reserve, and comes on a black leather band with a stainless steel folding clasp.

Albishorn’s latest “imaginary vintage” tool watch combines a skin diver with a yacht timer in the Marinagraph Classic. The watch interprets what such a watch would’ve looked like and functioned like in 1958, but with modern materials and craftsmanship. A proprietary monopusher chronograph and patented countdown function handle the regatta timer duties, while an oversized, fully lumed, sapphire timing bezel and 100m water resistance make the watch a capable skin diver. Limited to just 99 pieces and sold with a pair of Tropic-style rubber straps, the Marinagraph Classic retails for CHF 3,950 (~4,870).

IWC honors the 140th anniversary of its longtime automotive partner, Mercedes-Benz, with this special Big Pilot’s Watch Perpetual Calendar featuring solid gold indices and IWC’s new ProSet perpetual calendar movement that allows forward-and-backward adjustments and exclusive setting via the crown alone.

The Retrograph Stone Blend continues Brew’s coffee-inspired design with a captivating stone dial. The swirling natural pietersite is meant to evoke milk folding into cold brew coffee. It also reimagines the Retrograph with a gold-tone 38mm tonneau case. The time-only dial, featuring retro baton hour and minute hands, is powered by a Miyota Caliber 9015 automatic movement. This is a limited edition of 250 pieces.

The F-B100W-1A updates the DNA of the iconic F-91W with Bluetooth and a built-in accelerometer that counts up to 999,999 steps, syncs to the Casio Watches app and sets daily goals between 1,000 and 50,000 steps. Its rectangular resin case measures 38.1mm across and keeps the retro silhouette intact while adding five alarms, a 200-lap stopwatch and a bio-based resin strap. It skips GPS and heart rate, but for anyone who wants heritage looks with a light activity-tracking layer, it makes a quietly compelling case.

Timex keeps its Peanuts train rolling with this special Snoopy edition of its Marlin Chronograph. The watch’s motorsports-inspired sunburst dial boasts racing stripes, a tachymeter scale and a checkered flag motif, with Snoopy and Woodstock added to the subdials, along with the number “50,” a nod to the year Peanuts debuted in 1950.

For 2026, Timex has launched two new stylish takes on its Waterbury Heritage Chronograph that more closely ties the watch to its motorsport inspiration. While the core watch remains intact, including its Meca-Quartz movement (which combines a quartz base with a mechanical chronograph complication), the styling is a bit more racing-derived, including a new perforated leather strap for additional comfort on the road.

Seiko collaborates with Tradman’s Bonsai on this gorgeous Presage watch modeled after a moonlit bonsai tree. The deep green dial features a pattern modeled after the tree’s bark, while the 38mm steel case and seven-row bracelet feature an elegant gold PVD coating. The watch is limited to 2,000 pieces.

One of the rarest MoonSwatches ever adds a very subtle update to the Mission to the Sun in honor of the solar eclipse on August 12, 2026. In addition to the upgraded white rubber strap, the watch replaces the yellow Bioceramic pusher at 2:00 with a black one and swaps out the sun-themed battery cover for one depicting the new moon. The watch is only available on the day of the eclipse, and only in Spain.

The entry point model in Seiko’s 145th anniversary “Edo purple” collection is the Seiko 5 Sports SKX Series. It adds the distinctive violet, finished with a satin sunburst texture, to the new SKX dial introduced in 2025. It retains the collection’s 100m water resistance, three-link steel bracelet and Caliber 4R36 automatic movement.

Timex expands the Automatic E Line collection with a new 38mm case size, up 4mm from the existing model, and it displays some very clear inspiration. The prominent, chamfered fixed bezel, the baton hour markers with a double 12:00, the date window at 3:00 and the “garage door” dial texture are all pulled from the Patek Philippe Nautilus. With a Miyota Caliber 8215 automatic movement and an integrated stainless steel bracelet, it is an excellent alternative for under $400. It debuts in blue, steel and two-tone.

Fears teams up with watch influencer Andrew Morgan for this special edition of the Brunswick Jump Hour. The watch is the most contemporary take yet on Fears’ classic jump hour, and will also serve as the final version of the watch. Its multilayer dial is the most complex in Fears’ history and comprises a sapphire outer dial with a black gradient, a frosted sapphire minute track and a luminous ceramic inner dial. Complete with the lumed, exposed rotating hour disc, the watch comes alive in low light. The seriously limited “Ultimus” will only be available to order from Fears from now until August 17, then it’s gone forever. The watch is priced at $4,600 on a leather strap, and you can add on a steel bracelet for $300 more.

Timex’s latest Waterbury Classic refreshes a long-running American icon with a textured dial, a metallic-blue handset and applied indices, and a sub-seconds register at 6 o’clock — details that punch well above the price. The 39mm stainless-steel case wears a slightly domed mineral-glass crystal and pairs with a brushed and polished steel bracelet for an all-steel look that reads dressy without demanding a tie. A battery-powered quartz movement keeps it low-maintenance, and 50m of water resistance makes it genuinely wearable every day.

Tag Heuer’s Formula 1 Solargraph gets a striking orange makeover in honor of the 2026 Dutch Grand Prix at Zandvoort, a race which is not on the F1 calendar after this year. The 38mm solar-powered retro racing watch has a steel case with an orange bezel, rubber strap and dial accents, and is limited to 1,500 pieces on rubber and 1,000 pieces on a steel bracelet.

The F-91WF takes Casio’s iconic 1989 digital and swaps its standard resin band for a woven cloth strap made from recycled PET, making this significantly better for the trail. The case stays true to the original: 35.2mm wide, 8.5mm thin and just 21 grams on the wrist. A 7-year CR2016 battery, 30-meter water resistance, 1/100-second stopwatch and alarm round out the package. It comes in black, navy and olive green.

The Weekender has long been a Timex staple, and the Chronograph version gives it a bit more function without losing any of its easygoing character. A 40mm brushed and polished stainless steel case frames a clean dial with unobtrusive markings, luminous hands and chronograph subdials — clean and no-fuss. A supple brown leather strap with contrast side stitching keeps things dressed up enough for the office, while quick-release spring bars make a casual swap effortless.

The Weekender New England, in its compact 34mm form, keeps things unfussy — a cream dial with simple numeral markers, luminous hands for low-light legibility and a double-layered eco-friendly leather strap that swaps out in seconds. Timex rounds out the redesign with a sleek new case profile and a crown stamped with the Weekender’s signature “We.” logo. It’s a no-fuss daily wearer built for anyone who wants a clean, casual watch without the commitment of a big investment.
