This 1 March 2026 roundup spans a playful pizza-themed mechanical chronograph collaboration, limited luxury editions, a connected Formula 1 smartwatch and more accessible designs. Its standout pair is Studio Underd0g x Time+Tide’s Classic Cheese and Burnt Pepper0ni: two distinct manually wound chronographs, with listed prices starting at US$825. The prices and launch dates below are those reported at publication; they are not confirmation of current stock.
Studio Underd0g x Time+Tide: Classic Cheese and Burnt Pepper0ni
The collaboration comprises two 01Series Gen 3 watches: the stainless-steel Classic Cheese (reference 01MPT) and black PVD-coated stainless-steel Burnt Pepper0ni (01BPB). Both are manual-wind chronographs powered by the Seagull ST-1901B, with a stated 50-hour power reserve. Time+Tide reports that the movement is regulated in-house to -10/+15 seconds per day; that is the brand’s stated regulation, not an independent accuracy test. Time+Tide’s detailed feature gives the full specifications.
- Case: 38.5 mm diameter, 12.9 mm thick and 44.5 mm lug-to-lug; 50 metres water resistance.
- Crystal and functions: Sapphire crystal front and back; hours, minutes, small seconds and chronograph.
- Straps: 20 mm lug width. Both include leather straps from The Strap Tailor; Burnt Pepper0ni also comes with a black PVD-coated Milanese mesh bracelet.
How the two dials differ
Classic Cheese has a slice-shaped gap cut from its layered dial. Burnt Pepper0ni takes a charred-pizza look, paired with its black-coated case. They share the same movement and core case dimensions, but their distinct finishes and included bracelet make them different propositions rather than alternate names for one watch.

Time+Tide described the watches as a Studio exclusive and said they would be available at its Watch Discovery Studios in New York, London and Melbourne. The listed dates have passed, and current stock was not verified. The collaboration accompanied the opening of the New York studio; in the 1 March roundup, contributor Pietro Pilla called its relaunch “the biggest news” for the week and connected it to that opening. Studio Underd0g’s official site describes its Maidenhead workshop, The D0ghouse, as the place where its watches will be assembled.
