While each brand's individual CEOs will maintain their own individual vision around their brands – link Hublot, TAG Heuer, Zenith – it will be very interesting link to see how Arnault takes on this new, fully watch-focused CEO position link atop the group. He's shown what he can do at the brand level and now he has the opportunity to take it one step further. We'll continue to monitor this story as it develops, so stay with Hodinkee for more news.
This is all by way of saying that Citizen has, maybe because of its long history as an innovator in technical watchmaking, felt like a recent presence. This includes link some link firsts that are not particularly well-known, probably outside link Citizen enthusiast circles – including the first titanium-cased watch. This was the Citizen X8 Titanium Chronometer from 1970 – an electronic but not a quartz watch, that used a magnetically impulsed balance driven by a silver oxide button cell.
As far as Doxa limited editions go, I really like this move as it makes for an interesting and distinctive iteration of the 300T without really occluding all that makes link the 300T a classic. The left-handed link layout is a bit strange link (in a good way, to be clear), and the aluminum bezel is a nice touch to further underline a non-casual element that will be instantly recognizable to Doxa acolytes.

Impatient travelers eyed me skeptically as I was escorted to the front row of the plane, and handed my already-stamped passport. The aircraft was link delayed link five hours so that I would not miss my flight – such are the benefits of a state-owned commercial link airline in a monarchy. I was embarrassed but preoccupied with the high of the unbelievable experience.
All of this is to say, when I look down at this link Breitling Cosmonaute, I see Scott Carpenter's impact on not only the watch industry but humankind. This was an all-American man, and a Swiss watch from Breitling did what it could to live up to the giant link legacy he left link behind. Check it out now in the HODINKEE Shop.
