In the realm of haute horology, where craftsmanship meets innovation, Philipp Plein’s Timemachine Watches Collection stands as a testament to the fusion of style and precision. Renowned for his bold designs and uncompromising attention to detail, Philipp Plein has once again pushed the boundaries of luxury with his latest timepiece ensemble.
After the incredible success of the inaugural PHILIPP PLEIN Swiss Made timepieces during Watches and Wonders 2023, the brand unveiled a new collection this year. This year Philipp Plein showcased a collection with 2 lines of masterpieces: the PHILIPP PLEIN Crypto King Flying Tourbillon and the Crypto King Hexagon.
Craftsmanship Redefined
Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, every Philipp Plein timepiece is a masterpiece of its own. From the intricate dial designs to the precision-engineered movements, each component is crafted to perfection, ensuring unparalleled quality and reliability. These watches are made with the Timex Luxury Division in Lugano and are made there. This means that PP Timemachine watches are Swiss-made and represent the highest quality and cutting-edge movements.
Innovation and the Design of Timemachine Watches.
What sets the Timemachine Watches Collection apart is Plein’s innovative approach to design. Bold and audacious, these timepieces exude confidence and sophistication. Whether adorned with dazzling gemstones or featuring striking patterns, or NFT, each watch is a statement piece that brings attention. With their refined aesthetics and impeccable craftsmanship, Philipp Plein’s watches transcend fleeting trends, making them a symbol of timeless luxury.
Presentation in Geneva.
For this season PHILIPP PLEIN decided to present the new collection with an exclusive pop-up store in the heart of Geneva. During a few days, press and buyers could make an appointment to see their collection over there. The city was buzzing and this exclusive pop-up brought a lot of attention from all kinds of media and public. There was also an event where Philipp Plein himself expressed his excitement and personally met with the audience.
“Watches have always been an integral part of fashion and self-expression. It’s a journey that started last year with our collection at Watches and Wonders, we aim to redefine luxury timepieces, offering our loyal, distinguished clientele an unparalleled blend of sophistication and style.”
THE CRYPTO KING FLYING TOURBILLON: BEYOND TIME
This exceptional creation marks a significant step forward for PHILIPP PLEIN in the world of Haute Horlogerie, pushing the boundaries of innovation and craftsmanship while solidifying the brand’s position at the forefront of watchmaking artistry. The bespoke Landeron calibre PWL100LPP Manual winding Flying Coaxial Tourbillon movement is a demonstration of watchmaking virtuosity while integrating PHILIPP’s passion for mechanical innovation. The exceptionally open window dial offers an exciting view of the flying tourbillon; its inner workings are revealed as a symphony of gears seemingly floating, giving the impression of weightlessness, and offering perfect visibility. The Coaxial escapement, a testament to Swiss precision engineering, further enhances the watch’s exceptional performance. The collection offers four distinct models, each boasting an exceptional colour combination that defies convention.
DARE DEVIL XII: A fiery fusion of red and white, featuring a transparent PU strap for a modern touch.
NINJA PANDA: A classic contrast of black and white, with the white silicone strap complementing the look.
DRAGON FIRE: An electrifying mix of black and orange, accentuated by a soft-touch silicone strap.
NIGHT WOLF: The pinnacle of the collection, showcases an attractive black carbon case alongside luxurious 18k Rose Gold screws, a hexagonal side cage, and a crown.
And there is a surprise for everyone once they check the back of the watch. The back case window showcases disruptive elements – the brand’s iconic $miley and $kull-bone alongside the watchmaker’s signature initials.
These watches are produced in limited editions, each Crypto King Flying Tourbillon embodies the esteemed tradition of Swiss watchmaking while remaining true to the brand’s unconventional and irreverent philosophy.
THE CRYPTO KING HEXAGON: ARCHITECTURAL SOPHISTICATION.
This watch embodies the perfect harmony of functionality, architecture, and design. Its distinctive features include a tonneau-shaped case adorned with the brand’s signature hexagonal motif, a cutting-edge strap, and a powerful Swiss-made automatic movement. The impeccable craftsmanship and robust case construction uphold the highest standards of Swiss watchmaking precision.
Measuring 55 x 45 mm, the Crypto King Hexagon boasts a double-layered, open dial showcasing the recognizable hexagon logo with the double PPemblem. The see-through caseback and double-domed sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating provide a mesmerizing glimpse into the intricate workings of the timepiece.
Ladies Watches that were launched last year.
Apart from these novelties, we could also see the line launched last year during Watches and Wonders. I was happy to try on some of the Crypto Queen watches again. Some of my favourite ladies’ watches are Snow White and Cherry Blossom Ice Queen. Very feminine and modern.
Summary.
Philipp Plein’s watches are examples of timeless elegance, impeccable craftsmanship, and innovative design. These timepieces are more than just accessories – they are a celebration of luxury and a bold style.

The inspiration for Cristina Ortiz’s SS21 Collection called Mediterranean Pleasures (Lights, Nature, Sensations, Colors of the Mediterranean) is an imaginary trip along the Mediterranean coastline and I had a pleasure to speak with designer herself last September and find more about this dreamy line. SS21 collection was focused on a chic and easy off-duty look, designers featured plenty of everyday staples in high-end fabrics and as usual white, neutrals, light pink and blue, but also some black pieces. Crisitna Ortiz was inspired with ceramics, white houses, earth colors and she designed clothes with and idea to create versatile pieces that could be ideal for work at home, aperitif or holidays and women will feel comfortable in their Eleventy’s fashion staples. As always they feature some architectural shapes, classical lines and some modernism. It’s all about relaxed attitude, enjoyment, focusing on the moment and slowing down.
