The Day in Watchmaking
RZE’s move into in-house digital modules and Louis Vuitton’s expansion of the Monterey’s permanent collection put the emphasis on what sits behind, and beyond, a new release. For RZE, the UTD-8080 introduces the brand’s first in-house digital module in a titanium tool watch, pairing dual time, multiple alarms and a countdown timer with an upgrade path for owners. That provision makes the module’s future replacement or development part of the ownership proposition, rather than leaving the launch defined solely by its functions. Louis Vuitton, meanwhile, adds green and black ceramic Monterey models to its permanent collection. Following the limited-edition yellow-gold version introduced in 2025, the two additions retain the Monterey’s 1980s-derived design while extending its material and colour choices.
