Watches, the most beautiful models in the style of the seventies

From the unobtainable to the ones you never thought you could have, the best steel sports watches with integrated case and bracelet

October 18, 2021

Do you love watches and love the seventies? This combination will never fail to give you satisfaction, especially in this period, where any house attentive to trends has not failed to propose at least one model with the salient features of the watches of that period. That is: a sporty look, but transversal to practically any occasion of use, steel case and integrated bracelet. A trend that can be embraced whatever the budget at your disposal: stellar, for dreaming, but also more democratic.

Patek Philippe Nautilus 5711 / 1A



Dreaming does not cost anything? Well, it depends: if this is the watch you dream of, it will probably cost you at least a disappointment ... Small because this particular declination of the Nautilus will be discontinued at the end of the year, which is already well known and therefore - in short: you have not really believed you be able to win it, right?!? On the other hand, how can we talk about this trend without mentioning the model that represents it par excellence?

Audemars Piguet Royal Oak



Another progenitor of this trend, Audemars Piguet's Royal Oak remains a classic, whatever its declination, but for purists, the version with a 41 mm case and automatic manufacture movement, visible from the case back, will never disappoint.

Price: 24,000 euros

Bell & Ross Br 05 Gmt



Halfway between the vintage style and the super technical one, with the Br 05 Bell & Ross has proposed its first "urban" watch. Of course, there is also the more classic time-only version, with a black, blue or gray dial, but the new GMT model has something extra ... if only for its ability to remind us how good it is to travel .

Price: 4,990 euros

Baume & Mercier Riviera



Born in 1973, rhyme in 2021, the Riviera is Baume & Mercier's homage to the luxurious and relaxed lifestyle of the Côte d'Azur. The automatic version with a 42 mm case is available both with a Swiss Made movement and with a Baumatic caliber that can be glimpsed through the dial.

Price: from 2,250 euros

Tissot Prx Powermatic 80



Precise, resistant and waterproof up to X (10) atmospheres (or 100 meters): the promise of Tissot's Prx is already all in the letters that make up its name. The maison has taken it from its 1970s archives and, after a quartz version, proposes this interesting version with a checkerboard dial and Powermatic 80 movement: automatic, antimagnetic and with 80 hours of autonomy.

Price: 675 euros
