News Of The Week: Jan 27th 2026
from News Of The Week by The Fourth Wheel · host Chris Hall
Hello and welcome to the Fourth Wheel’s weekly news bulletin. This week I pick out my personal favourites from the list of limited edition launches coming up at British Watchmakers’ Day - these were announced just today and there are some crackers, notably from Pinion, Schofield, Farer and Christopher Ward - but the other news is that for the time being there are no limited editions from Studio Underd0g, Anoma, Bremont or any other name liable to cause round-the-block queues. Elsewhere in this episode, I see what we can learn from WoS UK’s latest set of accounts, explain how I think the Toledano & Chan relates to the Omega Seamaster 300M, and muse on Baume & Mercier’s future. Our Independent Brand Launch of the Week is Mermont, a single-handed platinum-cased dress watch on a textile strap. It confused me. Let me know what you think - particular about Baume & Mercier. I want to hear different opinions to my own! Can it thrive under Damiani in a way that it wasn’t able to at Richemont? Thanks for listening. I’ll see you back here next week for more.
