Helicon Master in the Alps: The Bond Experience Puts Our Dive Watch to the Test

Helicon Master in the Alps: The Bond Experience Puts Our Dive Watch to the Test

One of the most rewarding things about Helicon Watches is the incredible people we meet around the world. Just this week, we’ve shipped watches to New Zealand, the USA, and the UK, to name just a few—and along the way, we’ve found friends who truly appreciate our work. Thank you!

A huge milestone: The Lichen Green Master is now sold out! Many of you have asked if we’ll restock, but when we say limited edition, we mean it. And consider this your warning—the MbE, Blue Hour, and Granite editions are now running low as well…

One of the last Lichen Masters was delivered to a fantastic gentleman named David Zaritsky, the creator of The Bond Experience. David is a passionate Bond aficionado who explores how to bring James Bond’s iconic style and ethos into everyday life—from tailoring and travel to watches, cocktails, and adventure. His YouTube channel is a must-watch for Bond fans, offering deep dives into 007’s world and how to embrace elements of that lifestyle in a modern way.

We were thrilled to see David take his Helicon Master to Austria, where key scenes from the Bond film Spectre were shot. In the film, Daniel Craig’s Bond navigates the icy landscapes of Sölden, including an intense chase through the Alps. Inspired by this setting, David put his Lichen Master through a true Bond-worthy test—snowshoeing in a blizzard, braving extreme conditions, and giving it some serious rough use. But of course, his Helicon handled it all effortlessly.

As David said, “It held up like a champ!”

Where else can you find a watch that’s beautifully made, designed for real adventure, and accessibly priced? Every single purchase means the world to us.

Thank you, David—and thanks to all of you—for making another Helicon adventure possible!
