6 Pink Watches That Push the Boundaries of Any Collection
Twenty years ago the world of high-end watchmaking was a much less exciting place. Sure there were a handful of great brands pushing the boundaries of horology with new movements and materials, but if silicon balance springs and flying tourbillons don’t get your juices flowing, you might have been left feeling a bit underwhelmed by it all. Fortunately, times have changed, and watchmakers are embracing all manner of new ideas in design, including a bold new palette of dial colours. Now, instead of white, black, and silver you can have your watch in forest green, powder blue, blaze orange or — if you’ve got especially good taste — pink. Here are a few of our favourites.
TAG Heuer Monaco Chronograph
Learn More
TAG Heuer’s latest edition of the Monaco, released in honour of the recent Formula One Grand Prix in Las Vegas, is an homage to the energy of Sin City, with a skeletonized pink dial and a black DLC-coated titanium case. With hot pink accents on the 3 and 9 o’clock counters and hands that contrast with the deep matt black of the case, it’s as well-suited for race day as for a big night out on the town. ($14,000)
NOMOS Glashütte Club Campus “Deep Pink”
Learn More
Much like Pokémon, when it comes to the NOMOS Club Campus it’s hard to resist the urge to collect them all, including this one in a deep pomegranate shade of pink. Featuring a “California” dial with combined Arabic and Roman numerals, it’s available in eight additional variants, all powered by the brand’s in-house manual winding Alpha calibre. ($1,740)
Tudor Black Bay Chrono “Pink”
Learn More
Any new addition to Tudor’s beloved Black Bay family is more or less guaranteed to get tool watch enthusiasts fired up, and such was certainly with the case with this 2024 drop, with a bubblegum pink dial in the same shade as Inter Miami FC’s uniforms. When team co-owner (and longtime Tudor ambassador) David Beckham was spotted wearing one pitch-side shortly after its launch, this instantly became one of the brand’s hottest recent launches. ($7,050)
Grand Seiko SBGA413 “Heritage Collection”
Learn More
In keeping with Grand Seiko’s tradition of drawing inspiration from Japanese culture, this watch’s subtly textured pink dial is a tribute to shunbun, the Japanese word for a specific time of year when cherry blossom petals scattered by the wind cover the surface of a river or pond. ($9,400)
Rolex Oyster Perpetual 36
Learn More
Unlike the Day-Date and Datejust, which are both available in precious metals, the Oyster Perpetual is available exclusively in Oystersteel. That makes it a bit less dressy than its siblings, but the OP compensates (and then some) with a range of colourful dials like this one. If cotton candy pink isn’t your jam you can always opt for robin’s egg blue or — if you’re feeling particularly colourful — Rolex’s much-hyped “Celebration” balloon motif. ($7,750)
Fears Brunswick 38 “Orchid”
Learn More
This once-shuttered British legacy brand is reaching new heights following its relaunch by the founder’s great-great-great-grandson. One of the many handsome designs in the new Fears catalogue, the Brunswick’s combination of a small-ish 38 mm case and a pink-tinted mother-of-pearl dial makes it surprisingly versatile. ($6,240)
