USA Issue 80

Revolution September 2025

The Fall Issue of Revolution U.S. is a celebration of the arts. German painter – and Glashütte Original collector – Michael Moebius graces our cover with the new PanoMaticCalendar “Blue of Dawn”, while sharing his story of artistic dreams nurtured behind the Iron Curtain and his global success after reunification.

We also explore watchmaker Rebecca Struthers’ new children’s book, which teaches elements of the U.K. and U.S. science curriculum to readers aged seen to nine through the principles of horology.

Already an Amazon bestseller, it carries a secondary mission: inspiring the next generation of watchmakers and watch collectors.

Color bursts onto the pages through the Rolex Stella and stone dials in the collection of David Silver.

We discuss the potential of timepieces to be conversation starters with Ed Margulies of Split Watches and punk-rock legend Don Letts.

And we look at how Bulova has been entwined with the cultural landscape of America for the past 150 years.

Elsewhere in this issue: Jean-Christophe Babin reflects on the sixth edition of Geneva Watch Days; Tania Edwards of Collectability uncovers the history of the officer’s watch; Wei Koh reveals the truth behind Jay-Z’s unique Rolex “Franck Muller” perpetual calendar; and we head for open seas with a selection of the best dive watches of 2025 (so far!).
