But while rival European horologists vaunt the traditions of their centuries-old workshops, design duo Toledano & Chan’s new creation has a longer history altogether: It was carved from a meteorite that slammed into Earth around 1 million years ago. The Brutalist-inspired watch, dubbed the B/1M, was made from part of the Muonionalusta meteorite, the remains of which were first discovered in the Swedish village of Kitkiöjärvi in 1906. Since then, dozens more fragments — scattered around by the force of its collision with Earth — have been found across northern Scandinavia. “You often see meteorite dials; they are not uncommon on watches,” Toledano told CNN via Zoom from New York, where he is based. A slice of the Muonionalusta meteorite (not the fragment used in the watch) shows the material's distinctive structure, known as Widmanstätten patterns.

Glover said the first actual production model Jaguar is expected to launch in 2026 and will closely resemble the concept. Jaguar Land Rover hit an annual sales record in 2017. Though that was largely thanks to the success of Land Rover's three lines of muscular SUVs, Jaguar sales hit 178,601, a 20% increase over the previous year, at that point. Jaguar's struggles are not unique, said Karl Brauer, executive analyst for iSeeCars, a car shopping website and data provider. "Going volume definitely didn't help," said Charles Tennant, an independent auto analyst who is both the former chief engineer at Land Rover and a former director at Tata Motors, who advised the Indian carmaker on the Jaguar and Land Rover acquisition.
