OMEGA
SPEEDMASTER “SILVER SNOOPY AWARD”
50TH ANNIVERSARY: SNOOPY
CELEBRATES HALF A CENTURY
IN SPACE ORBIT

A
special timepiece has
been created 50 years
later to celebrate the
anniversary of the highest
honour awarded by NASA
to one of its suppliers. To
accurately represent the iconic
style of the Speedmaster,
OMEGA is offering a
42 mm case in stainless steel
inspired by the legendary
4th generation chronograph
(famous for being the first
watch to be worn on the
Moon).
The symbol Ag925 is laser-
engraved on the dial, which
features an embossed silver
medallion of the beloved
beagle on the blue counter at
9 o’clock. He is wearing his
famous spacesuit, exactly as
depicted on the Silver Snoopy
Award pin.
The legendary tachymeter
scale in white enamel on a blue ceramic [ZrO2] bezel ring includes a
nod to the history of the Speedmaster with a dot over the numeral 90.
The colour scheme continues on the silver dial with blue PVD angled
hour markers and hands.
Meanwhile, the NAIAD LOCK system ensures that all case back
engravings remain in an upright position, including the tributes to
Apollo 13 and to the Silver Snoopy Award. OMEGA received the award
seven months after the Speedmaster
helped save the crew of Apollo 13.

akame, the seaweed for expectant mothers
This brown seaweed has high levels of vitamin B9, calcium and iron,
all of which are beneficial nutrients during pregnancy. It must be
consumed with moderation, however, as too much iodine can harm the foetus.
How to cook wakame: Sliced in miso soups, blanched in salads.
Chef ’s tip: In the form of flakes, you can sprinkle it on cold dishes with vinegar or
lemon juice.

Royal Kombu, a slimming ally

Used in many Chinese and Japanese dishes, Kombu, like most seaweed, is noted for
its high iodine content. Its chemical composition rich in calorie-free natural sugars
makes it a good choice for diabetics and those on a diet. Moreover, its high fibre
content satiates the appetite and aids in digestion.
How to cook Royal Kombu: Firm and almost crunchy, Kombu can be eaten in salads,
with rice or potatoes, or as a wrap for meat and fish. It is also a flavour enhancer,
with its glutamate and sodium enhancing the natural flavour of any dish.
Chef ’s tip: You can blanch it for several minutes in boiling water to reduce the iodine
content.

Sea lettuce, a stress-relieving snack

Rich in calcium (it contains thirty times as much as milk), ulva lactusa is excellent
for when you’re feeling fatigued. It helps alleviate anxiety and effectively relieves
muscle cramps.
How to cook sea lettuce: It is eaten raw or cooked like wakame. It can be thinly sliced
and served with fish.
Chef ’s tip: To make it easier to chew, use it in stews.

Spirulina, rich in protein

Rich in beta-carotene, iron, phosphorous, magnesium, zinc..., this microalgae is
usually grown in fresh water and is ideal in cases of deficiencies. A good option for
vegans and vegetarians, it contains up to 70% protein.
How to cook spirulina: In powder, sticks or flakes, it can be added to soups, salads
and juices.
Chef ’s tip: Unlike macroalgae, spirulina is not a culinary algae and may not be to the
liking of some. If that’s the case, take it as a dietary supplement.

With its small islands, granite rocks sculpted by the waves and fishing villages,
Sweden’s west coast is full of lovely spots. Specialised companies like Catxalot
offer workshops and activities related to seaweed, this nutrient-rich marine plant.
Harvesting, which is both easy and safe, begins in spring and is a great activity
for children.

onsidered the country’s breadbasket, Skane is one of the most fertile agricultural regions in
Northern Europe. Its far-stretching fields, coastal cliffs, green hills and deserted white sand
beaches make it a popular destination for Swedes and foreign travellers alike.

Impressive sightseeing and breathtaking natural reserves

With its 300 castles and gardens dating from the 12th to the 19th centuries, Skane
°
offers a wide range of
choices in terms of cultural visits and outings. Wanås Castle in the lovely cobbled town of Kristianstad
has a large park, magnificent statues and a lake. Smaller in size, the medieval Örtofta Castle serves as
a guesthouse, as is the case with many traditional farms. For lovers of the great outdoors, Kullaberg
Nature Reserve and Stenshuvud National Park are extraordinary places for hiking, diving, kayaking and
fishing. Stroll around the heathlands and climb the rocks sculpted by the waves that flow into the Baltic.
Listen to the cracking of trees as tortured as the characters in Wuthering Heights. Perhaps here, at the
edge of Europe, between the sky and the sea, you will feel the Swedish soul and understand the country’s
close relationship with nature.

Golf and a tennis tournament

Golf and tennis enthusiasts will not be left out, as Skane
° has no fewer than 70 golf courses, most of
which are open year round thanks to the mild climate and are considered some of the most beautiful in
Northern Europe. The town of Båstad on the Bjäre Peninsula attracts visitors from around the world,
especially in July during the week of the annual ATP tennis tournament.

Tissot Gentleman Powermatic 80 Silicium Solid 18K Gold Bezel

Versatile, elegant and ergonomic, the Tissot Gentleman looks just as good with a
suit as it does with a more casual outfit, making it the perfect piece for a professional
meeting or an evening with friends. It suits both younger and older wearers and
can be worn on any occasion. It has an excellent price to quality ratio, especially
considering the 5.5 grams of gold that adorns the watch.
This fine material not only attracts eyes and warms the colouring of the Tissot
Gentleman, but also offers a bold contrast with the black dial. Its case measuring 40
mm in diameter and 10.64 mm thick is elongated by two strong curved horns that
ensure that the piece wraps more comfortably around the wrist.
The dial boasts four notable features. There is a central marking in the line of
sight that makes it easier to read the time and provides a contemporary look to
the models in the collection. Meanwhile, there are satin-brushed and polished
bevelled applied markers accentuated by facetted golden dauphine hands and a
date window at 3 o’clock, revealing the subtle originality of the dial. These stunning
golden pink features pair perfectly with the warmth of the 18-carat rose gold bezel.
A fine minute track ensures that seconds can by read accurately. Meanwhile, the
words “Powermatic 80 Silicium” reminds us that the Gentleman is fitted with a
quality Swiss-made calibre with a generous power reserve.
Finally, a black leather strap adds vintage accents to this model made for Gentlemen.

Koppel was a leading figure in Scandinavian modernist design. His many pieces for Georg Jensen are a clear example of his love for clean lines,
understated luxury and quality craftsmanship. The clock’s simple white dial and bold black hands are framed by a stainless steel case with a polished
finish. Excellent timekeeping is ensured by the internal precision quartz movement.

yhavn – The new harbour and its colourful buildings
To soak up the Copenhagen atmosphere, there’s nothing
better than starting with a walk along the canals of
the new harbour. Breathe in the Baltic air while admiring the
sailboats moored to the quays and the pretty colourful houses of
this picture-perfect setting. A red-light district in the old days,
despite its name (which literally means new harbour), Nyhavn
is actually not new at all and in its former life was a hot spot of
debauchery frequented by drunk sailors and ladies of pleasure.
Today, there are no sailors on the café terraces, but you can still
enjoy a cold one while snacking on herring. The chilly need not
fret – outside tables are heated and provided with blankets.

Kastellet and the Little Mermaid

Some 20 minutes on foot (and a bit less by bike) from Nyhavn is a
star-shaped fortress turned park which includes a lovely windmill
and a church. Opposite, on her rock, the bronze Little Mermaid
pays tribute to her creator, Hans Christian Andersen, a long-time
resident of the harbour district.

Østerbro, the pretty district

With its art galleries and small shops, Østerbro is an upper middle
class neighbourhood which exudes a chic and relaxed atmosphere.
Home to Europe’s longest pedestrian shopping street, it is a
hotspot for Nordic design. Must-visit shops? Illums Bolighus,
a household furnishings store focused on modern Scandinavian
design. And for more traditional items, Royal Copenhagen, a
fully-fledged institution that has been manufacturing porcelain
products for nearly 250 years.

Nørrebro, a bohemian hub

Nørrebro is one of Copenhagen’s last popular working-class
neighbourhoods. It is home to a mix of students and immigrants,
and its relatively low prices have made it a new hipster district.
With its thrift stores, flea markets and charity shops, it is sure to
please responsible shoppers!

A pioneer in the field, Breitling has been supporting
aviators for 80 years and is now offering a new lease of life
to one the favourite models of pilots, the legendary Chronomat.
Nearly 40 years after its release, the timepiece has been redesigned
in order to appeal to a new generation of men and women of
purpose, action and style. Available in a wide range of materials,
including stainless steel and 18-carat red gold, the Chronomat
is fitted with a 42 mm case and a bezel with four rider tabs. The
timepiece also comes in a variety of dial options, including black,
blue, silver and bronze, and is presented on a Rouleaux bracelet.
It is powered by the COSC chronometer-certified Breitling

in seven variations, all of which are three-hand with date models measuring 42 mm

luminescent hands and an oversized crown. A noteworthy innovation for TAG Heuer,
the collection includes two models crafted in bronze. In addition, behind the case back
engraved with a car tyre and propeller hides the COSC-certified automatic Calibre 5
with a 38-hour power reserve.

Take to the skies with the Oris Big Crown ProPilot Altimeter
With this generously sized timepiece measuring 47 mm in diameter and 55 mm from
lug to lug, Oris is once again demonstrating its expertise in pilot’s watches. The thick
luminous hands make for excellent visibility in low light conditions like night flying
and the large numerals ensure that the time can easily be read in all circumstances.
Meanwhile, the bezel draws its inspiration from the shape and design of jet turbine
engines and features a nice coined edge. In addition, the two oversized crowns (which
Flight baptism are hallmarks of the Big Crown collection) are used to set the time and date at 2
o’clock and to calibrate the altimeter that measures changes in barometric pressure
at 4 o’clock. The outer ring shows altitude while the inner ring displays air pressure.
The timepiece is driven by Oris calibre 733, a self-winding movement with a power
reserve of approximately 38 hours, and attached to a fabric strap or steel bracelet.

Longines Avigation BigEye: Paris – New York, New York – Paris

Since its inception, Longines, the official timekeeper of the first solo transatlantic
flight by Charles Lindbergh, has contributed to great aeronautical feats.
Inspired by a 1930s chronograph, the Longines Avigation BigEye draws on the brand’s
heritage to create a collection that helps pilots conquer the skies. It is equipped with a
column-wheel movement made exclusively for Longines. Its stainless steel case with a
nearly 41 mm diameter and its ergonomic lugs are paired with a graceful soft leather
strap with a pin buckle that enhances the comfort of the timepiece. With just one look,

hange for the Better
To support this new cause, the watchmaker created the
Oris Hangang Limited Edition, a watch that seeks to
raise public awareness about the fate of the Hangang in South
Korea, which is the country’s second longest river and supplies
water to Seoul’s 10 million residents.
Years of neglect have made the river dirty and polluted, which
means that it is in desperate need of cleaning. “With every
passing year, we grow more passionate about our mission,”
Volunteers cleaning says Oris Co-CEO Rolf Studer. “Conserving the world’s water
up the Hangang is critical; it’s also possible if we work together.” This Oris
commitment is not new, as evidenced by the series of limited
edition Oris Aquis diving watches aimed at supporting various
programmes to protect the oceans. Sales from the 2,000 pieces
in this collection will help fund the Hangang clean-up project.
The model is inspired by the Aquis diving watch and features
the same functions and performance.

A diving watch to safeguard the aquatic world

The timepiece has a 43.5 mm stainless steel case and a
unidirectional rotating bezel, which is very useful for safely
determining and displaying dive times. The dark green colour
of the ceramic insert and dial is reminiscent of the creek waters
at the source of the Hangang. The piece is water resistant
to 300 metres (30 bar) and contains an automatic Oris 743
movement with small seconds at 9 o’clock and a white circular
date indicator. The case back is engraved with the course of
the Hangang across Korea and the limited edition number. Its
generous power reserve ensures a running time of 38 hours. The
model is attached to a stainless steel bracelet closed by a safety
folding clasp with extension.

I
n the eyes of collectors and aviation enthusiasts,
the models in the Longines Spirit collection retain
the essence of the brand’s precision instruments,
having accompanied the pioneers in the conquest
of the air, sea and land while also incorporating the
technical advances of our century.

Building on this heritage, these timepieces are

inspired by the build of pilot’s watches and attractively
equipped with contemporary watchmaking codes.
The large crown, the flange, the bezel set back from
the side of the case middle, the font on the dial, the
diamond-shape indexes and the large luminous
“baton” hands are all elements inspired by aviation
that entail a vibrant tribute to this realm and its
daring pioneers.

Two exclusive automatic movements now power the

latest additions to the collection, the L888.4 and the
L688.4. They are fitted with silicon hairsprings, build
up a respective power reserve of 64 and 60 hours and
are chronometer certified by the COSC*.
The three hand/calendar version comes in a case
measuring 40 and 42 mm in diameter, respectively.
Meanwhile, the chronograph is housed in a uniquely
shaped 42 mm case. All the models have a domed
sapphire class that protects a matte black, grained
silver or sunray blue dial. Moreover, each of the
dial is stamped with five applied stars, denoting an
improvement in the quality of the brand’s movements.
Five stars is the maximum number that can be
achieved.

The case is set on a steel bracelet or on a leather strap

in dark brown, light brown or blue. The “Prestige”
edition of the three-hand/calendar model comes with
three interchangeable straps (steel, leather and NATO
in brown leather).

L
ong-lasting workmanship and age-old traditions
Made from high-quality, natural, traditional materials, a Sami
handcrafted item is an excellent gift that is both durable and
environmentally friendly, two themes which are crucial to the survival
of these indigenous peoples whose land is constantly being threatened in
order to be exploited.
Sami slöjd, or handicraft, is divided into two categories, hard handicrafts
and soft handicrafts. The first, which is traditionally reserved for men,
primarily consists of knives, bowls and cups with engraved reindeer horn.
Meanwhile, the second is traditionally for women and includes wool
clothing, tin wire jewellery, and bags and baskets woven from birch roots.

Where to buy Sami handicrafts

Sami handicraft items can be purchased in the northern regions of Sweden
and mainly in the towns and villages of Lapland. If you are in Kiruna, the
largest town in Lapland, visit the Carl Wennberg shop, which has been
selling Sami handicrafts since 1907. If you are in Stockholm, be sure to visit
the retailer Svensk Hemslöjd specialising in traditional arts and crafts.
If you are fortunate enough to be staying at the iconic ICEHOTEL in
Jukkasjärvi, visit the hotel’s shop, which sells a wide selection of Sami items.

Jokkmokk winter market

The Jokkmokk winter market, held yearly in late January/early February, is
a great place to find Sami handicrafts, as it is the largest Sami gathering in
the world. This arts and crafts market has been taking place for the past 400
years. There is probably no better place to experience Sami culture and buy
items directly from the local craftsperson. It is also a wonderful opportunity
to discover their vivid clothing, music, dance and food, which are part of
a colourful culture that is unfortunately being threatened by the modern
world, despite the fact that the Sami people are recognised as an indigenous
people by the UN with their own flag, anthem and official language divided
into nine dialects.

T
he Swedes are highly keen on this practice, going to the sauna to relax, but
also because of its social facet: you can go there for a chat, for a business
meeting or even to have a craft beer outside. Nudity is the norm, although
some saunas allow for the use of a swimming costume and have schedules for single-
sex use. A quick overview.

Step by step
Before entering the sauna, you first take a dip in ice-cold water, whether in the snow,
in an ice hole or in a pool designed for this purpose. It is only after this first step that
it is time to head to the log cabin that has been heated to a temperature ranging from
80 to 100 degrees Celsius. After spending some time in the sauna, you go back into
the ice-cold water before moisturising your body with a suitable lotion.

The sauna, beneficial against fatigue and stress

By loosening up your muscles through the use of heat, saunas allow your body
to relax and significantly reduce fatigue. Moreover, by increasing blood flow and
providing oxygen and nutrients to muscles, the heat of a sauna also enhances

Glowing skin
During a session, the skin’s pores open as a result of the heat, which
subsequently helps to eliminate toxins and dead skin. By combining a
sauna session with exfoliation, your skin will undergo a deep cleansing
that will restore softness and elasticity. Do not forget to drink plenty of
fluids to prevent dehydration.

Ribersborgs Kallbadhus, an open-air bathhouse

Are you looking for a unique experience in Sweden? Ribersborgs
Kallbadhus, or Kallis as the locals call it, will definitely leave you with
great memories. This open-air bath near Ribersborgs beach in Malmö
is an oasis of well-being visited by locals and visitors alike who want to

It has five saunas, two seawater pools, two wood-fired hot tubs and
a sun deck. The Belle Époque inspired facilities will transport you to

Divided into two sections, for men, for women and one shared sauna,
