New at DXB

Welcome to this week’s deep dive into a truly remarkable timepiece that blends heritage with cutting-edge technology. Today, we're exploring the MRG-B5000, a watch that pays homage to the original G-SHOCK while pushing the boundaries of metalwork and design. If you appreciate precision engineering and timeless style, this story is for you. At the heart of its construction, the case and bezel are forged from  Ti64-based super-hard titanium alloy , delivering incredible strength without the bulk. The band introduces a different specialty titanium alloy called  DAT55G , which is not only three times harder than pure titanium but also highly workable, striking a perfect balance between toughness and comfort. What truly sets this watch apart is the bezel’s top layer, crafted from  COBARION® , a cobalt-chrome alloy that’s four times harder than pure titanium. The bezel itself is a marvel, composed of 25 individually polished components that create a stunning te...

 PAMP Fender Telecaster 75th Anniversary Gold Pick Bar (2026) — Limited Edition Review A Gold Guitar Pick Fit for Rock Royalty: Inside the 2026 PAMP Fender Telecaster 75th Anniversary Bar Some anniversaries get a cake. This one gets 5 grams of pure gold shaped like a guitar pick — and honestly, that feels about right. To mark 75 years since the Fender Telecaster first plugged in and changed the sound of modern music, Swiss precious metals house PAMP SA has released one of the most creative collectibles to hit the bullion world this year: the 2026 PAMP 75th Anniversary Fender Telecaster Pick 5 Gram Gold Proof-Like Bar. Part investment-grade bullion, part rock 'n' roll memorabilia, it's the kind of crossover piece that has both guitarists and gold collectors paying attention — from Dubai's bullion trading floors to collector circles worldwide. Why the Telecaster Still Matters, 75 Years On Before you can appreciate the tribute, it helps to know what's being honored. ...

  DJI Mic Mini 2S: The Pocket-Sized Wireless Mic That Finally Remembers Everything Good gear disappears when you're working -you stop thinking about it and just trust it to do its job. That's the pitch behind DJI's latest wireless microphone, the Mic Mini 2S, which quietly solves the one problem that's followed the entire Mic Mini lineup since it launched: what happens when the wireless connection drops mid-shoot. The answer, as it turns out, was hiding in the name. The "S" stands for storage, and it changes what this tiny mic is capable of. What's Actually New Here The original Mic Mini and Mic Mini 2 were built for creators who wanted DJI's signature ease of use in the smallest possible footprint but neither one recorded audio locally. If your wireless signal cut out behind a wall or lost sync in a crowded venue, that take was gone. The Mic Mini 2S closes that gap by borrowing a feature straight out of the flagship DJI Mic 3 playbook: 32-bit float in...

There's a moment every collector chases — that split second where nostalgia and investment-grade silver collide. This year, two new releases are giving fans of a galaxy far, far away and the Marvel Cinematic Universe exactly that moment. Whether you're building a themed collection, hunting for a milestone gift, or simply love the intersection of pop culture and precious metals, these two 1 oz .999 fine silver coins deserve a spot on your radar — from collectors in Dubai and across the UAE to enthusiasts tracking new arrivals worldwide. Princess Leia Gets Her Silver Moment Few scenes in cinema history carry as much weight as the one that kicks off the entire Star Wars saga: Princess Leia, cornered and desperate, recording a holographic plea to Obi-Wan Kenobi and hiding it inside R2-D2. That single act of defiance in A New Hope (1977) set the original trilogy in motion — and it's the exact moment now immortalized on this new 1 oz .999 fine silver coin. The reverse design...

  Every so often a gold bar comes along that isn't really about the gold — it's about the moment. PAMP's new 2.5 gram .999 fine gold rectangular bar , released to honour the 250th Anniversary of the United States' independence , is one of those pieces. It's small enough to be an easy entry point into precious metals, but it's the kind of design detail and limited mintage that collectors actually chase. The Design: A Tribute Worth Looking Closely At The obverse carries a heraldic bald eagle , wings spread, holding a banner with "1776–2026" — a direct nod to the 250 years between the signing of the Declaration of Independence and this anniversary year. The dates flank the eagle on either side, framing it the way you'd expect on a commemorative coin rather than a bullion bar, which is really the point: this is a piece designed to be looked at, not just stored. Flip it over and you get PAMP's signature reverse: their house logo, the bar'...

  There's a particular kind of woman this watch was made for. She doesn't need a dial full of complications to feel accomplished. She wears classics, but never predictably. She's just as comfortable closing a deal as she is wandering a souk on a Friday afternoon, and her jewellery box probably has more gold than silver — but she'd never call herself a "gold person." She just is one. That's the woman Baume & Mercier had in mind when they created Joia . What Is the Joia Collection? Joia (the word means "jewel" in Portuguese, and it shows) is Baume & Mercier's answer to a question a lot of watch houses get wrong: how do you make a watch feel like a piece of jewellery without losing the integrity of a real timepiece? The brand's solution is a graceful 28mm silhouette — small enough to sit on the wrist the way a bracelet would, but built with the same Swiss watchmaking seriousness you'd expect from a house with a 195-year history....

  Baume & Mercier's Riviera 73 reissues the 1973 original with a 39mm dodecagonal case and quartz movement. Explore the new models and where to find them in Dubai. Every so often, a brand revisits its own archive and finds something that feels more relevant now than when it first launched. That's exactly what's happened with the Riviera 73 — Baume & Mercier's 2026 reinterpretation of the watch that quietly carved out its own lane during one of the most competitive moments in modern watchmaking history. The Original Riviera Was Never Trying to Be the Royal Oak The first Riviera launched in 1973, a year after Gérald Genta's Royal Oak reshaped the industry — but the Riviera was making its own argument for what a steel sport-chic watch could be, built around a twelve-sided case and an integrated bracelet, at a price that didn't require a second mortgage. In fact, the original was introduced partly as a response to the quartz crisis that was beginning to uns...

  Some watches are designed to be noticed. Classima isn't one of them — and that's exactly its appeal. Baume & Mercier's most understated collection returns for 2026 with a fresh generation of 40mm men's models that prove elegance doesn't need embellishment to make an impression. In a watch market increasingly crowded with logos and limited-edition hype, Classima's quiet confidence feels like a genuine statement. A Collection Built on Nearly 200 Years of Restraint Baume & Mercier is the sixth-oldest watchmaker still in operation, with roots tracing back to 1830, when Louis Joseph Baume opened a small watchmaking counter in Les Bois, a village tucked into the Swiss Jura. In the early 2000s, the Maison refocused on classical pieces rooted in that heritage, unveiling collections like Classima that continue to define the brand today. It's worth knowing that history before looking at the 2026 lineup, because Classima isn't a trend-chasing release — it...

  he FIFA World Cup 2026 is officially underway, and the world is watching. Sixteen cities. Three countries. Forty-eight nations. One trophy. If there was ever a moment in football history that deserved to be preserved in pure gold and silver, this is it — and Dubai Duty Free has done exactly that. Now available across Dubai International Airport terminals, the FIFA 2026 Official Gold & Silver Bars are here for football fans, precious metal collectors, and anyone searching for a gift that genuinely means something. These aren't novelty keepsakes. They're officially licensed, investment-grade bars minted to the highest international standards — with the soul of the beautiful game pressed right into the metal.

For the first time ever, the World Cup is being jointly hosted by three nations: the Uni...

  There are very few names in football — or in any sport — that carry the kind of weight Diego Maradona's does. Decades after his most iconic moments on the pitch, the man still gives you chills. And now, at Dubai Duty Free (DDF), you can literally hold a piece of that legacy in your hands — in 999.9 pure gold. The 1 Gram PAMP Suisse Maradona Gold Bar has arrived at Dubai International Airport, and it's already turning heads among collectors, football fans, and precious metals enthusiasts alike. Whether you're transiting through DXB or making a special trip, this is one airport find that genuinely justifies the detour. A Legend Immortalized in Gold Diego Maradona didn't just play football — he invented moments. The 1986 FIFA World Cup alone gave the world two of the most talked-about goals ever scored: the audacious "Hand of God" and the breathtaking "Goal of the Century" , a 60-metre solo run past five England defenders that is still replayed and...
