Richard Mille RM 11-03 Automatic Flyback Chronograph

zelin0802

The RM 011, an integral part of the Richard Mille collection since 2007, bids farewell and makes way for the new RM 11-03 Automatic Flyback Chronograph.

The main focus of Richard Mille was the three-dimensional quality of the new automatic movement RMAC3 and the visual realization of its complications. A glossy beveled surround marking the split times adds depth to the flyback chronograph’s colored counters and seconds display.

This spatial effect is further enhanced by the satin-finished grade 5 titanium upper bridge, which contrasts with the PVD-coated titanium of the movement. This inevitably draws the eye across the dial, from the annual calendar and its oversized date to the 12-hour counter and flyback chronograph.best watches for men

The labyrinth continues on the back of the movement: the satin-finished and PVD-coated lower bridge showcases the twin barrels and the new variable-geometry grade 5 titanium rotor, whose design is inspired by aerodynamic elements from Formula 1 . This technical solution, unique to Richard Mille, allows the self-winding mechanism to adapt to the wearer’s activity level by adjusting the moment of inertia of the oscillating weight using chamfered and shot-peened 18-carat white gold winglets. The oscillating weight, made of satin-finished and PVD-coated grade 5 titanium, is adjustable in six positions and is mounted on ceramic ball bearings.

But the new automatic movement RMAC3 also showed real power. Thanks to the use of grade 5 titanium in the bridges and bridges, the entire flyback chronograph movement has been optimized in terms of gear train functionality and stability. The two barrels installed in parallel ensure constant power transmission and a power reserve of approximately 55 hours. The 4 Hz variable torque balance is extremely shock resistant and allows finer adjustments than traditional balances. nice replica watches

The three-piece tonneau-shaped case has also been revised. The designers have gently modernized its shape without distorting it, giving it a more athletic and dynamic character.

The highest level of craftsmanship and an enormous investment of time were required to achieve the level of ergonomics and sophistication that characterize this case – unparalleled in the world of haute horlogerie. With a lot of patience and skill, the surfaces are satin-finished and chamfered entirely by hand. Originally used on the RM 27-01 Rafael Nadal, this silhouette now characterizes all Richard Mille sports watches. Not only does it differentiate them from the lifestyle models in the series, but it also reinforces their structural integrity.

The RM 11-03 is reminiscent of motorsport with numerous details.
The Grade 5 titanium crown is inspired by the design of racing rims and tire treads. The knurled buttons of the same material are inspired by pedal surfaces, and their caps are made from a material as ubiquitous in Formula 1 as titanium: NTPT carbon. replica watches online shop

As with Richard Mille, the entire mechanism can be admired through the anti-reflective coated sapphire crystal, revealing the caliber. The case is available in titanium, rose gold or white gold and is held together by 20 spline screws in grade 5 titanium. The RM 11-03 Flyback Chronograph is a sporty watch that proudly embraces the brand’s new aesthetic, inspired by motorsport. The model will be officially unveiled on September 4th as part of the third edition of the “Chantilly Arts & Elégance Richard Mille”.

TECHNICAL FEATURES OF THE RICHARD MILLE CALIBER RM 11-03 AUTOMATIC FLYBACK CHRONOGRAPH

Movement: CALIBER RMAC3, self-winding skeleton movement with variable geometry rotor, hours, minutes, seconds, flyback chronograph, 60-minute countdown at 9 o’clock, 12-hour totalizer, oversized date and month display.

Dimensions: 49.94 x 44.50 x 16.15 mm
Power reserve: Approx. 55 hours (±10%). The effective power reserve depends on how often the chronograph function is used.replica skeleton watches

Plates and bridges: Plates and bridges are made of grade 5 titanium. This biocompatible, extremely corrosion-resistant and very strong alloy allows the gear train to function optimally. The alloy is composed of 90% titanium, 6% aluminum and 4% vanadium. This connection increases the mechanical properties of the material and is therefore commonly used in the aerospace and automotive industries. The circuit board of the RMAC3 movement is optimized for the ideal weight/strength ratio.

Flyback Chronograph: A pusher between the 4 and 5 o’clock positions allows the running chronograph second hand to be reset without first stopping the mechanism. This feature was originally developed for pilots to avoid the inevitable loss of time (and precision) when stopping, resetting and starting the chronograph when passing landmarks. When the chronograph function is activated, the chronograph counters at 6 o’clock and 9 o’clock display the elapsed hours and minutes, while the central hand counts the seconds.

Use: The user can start or stop the chronograph function with the pusher between 1 o’clock and 2 o’clock. The flyback function for zeroing can be operated at any time using the pusher between 4 o’clock and 5 o’clock. replica Urwerk Watches

Breitling launches 3 models inspired by Ref. Chapter 765

Breitling launches 3 models inspired by Ref. Chapter 765

In honor of the 70th anniversary of the famous Ref. 765 AVI, also known as Co-Pilot, Breitling presents three new models that pay homage to the original timepiece. The collection includes the Classic AVI collection, the Super AVI Mosquito Night Fighter watch and a 1964 limited edition replica.

The Classic AVI collection comes in five editions, each showcasing a dedicated color scheme inspired by legendary aircraft. The P-51 Mustang is available in two models: one with a stainless steel case, black dial and tonal counters, and the other with an 18k red gold case and contrasting counters. The remaining three have stainless steel cases, including the Tribute to Vought F4U Corsair with a blue dial, the Curtiss Warhawk with an army green dial, and the black-dial Mosquito with contrasting white counters.

The Classic AVI Series features a smaller case size of 42mm compared to the original’s 46mm, but retains the well-loved reference’s rugged design and upgraded details. The GMT complication is replaced by Breitling’s Caliber 23 chronograph movement, which offers a 48-hour power reserve and 10 bar water resistance. Each model is available with a choice of aviator-style calfskin strap or a five-row stainless steel bracelet. swiss watch men

Inspired by the all-black two-seat Night Fighter 2 aircraft, the Super AVI Mosquito Night Fighter Watch features an all-black design. It is powered by Breitling’s own B04 self-winding mechanical movement, which offers an impressive 70-hour power reserve, and is housed in a solid 46mm ceramic case.

Finally, Breitling launched the original 1964 Ref. 765 AVI, which was favored by star athletes and celebrities at the time. This timepiece faithfully replicates the iconic inverted panda dial and black bezel, housed in a 41mm stainless steel case.

Breitling presents the new classic AVI “Co-Pilot” in a 42 mm case

Breitling showcased their modern Super AVI collection at an airstrip in Dallas in 2021, featuring real warplanes and pilots. We’re here to bring you live coverage, and while we’ve spotted some of the design, the case itself measures 46 x 15.9mm, which is an unpalatable 46 x 15.9 mm. To solve this problem, Breitling introduced a new Classic AVI series in the collection, which had a more wrist-friendly 42×14.7mm case, but sacrificed the GMT complication found in the Super AVI series. Additionally, there is a 41mm reference in this version. 765 1964 re-edition, faithful to the old school form inside and out. luxury swiss watches

The new Classic AVI watch follows the same design language as we’ve seen in the Super AVI, itself a reference to the early ’50s Breitling model 765, a watch that won the ‘Co-Pilot’ award for its usefulness to pilots nickname time. The design of the Super AVI watches was inspired by the iconic WWII aircraft, and the Classic AVI collection utilizes the same scheme to good effect. This includes the P-51 Mustang, Vought F4U Corsair, Curtiss P-40 Warhawk and Mosquito aircraft, each in 4 different colorways.

The latest AVI watches use the Breitling Caliber 23, which is their modified Valjoux 7753. This means that the pricing is also more attractive than the Super AVI series, and one of the watches released in this classic AVI series is the ref. 765 1964 Re-Edition, which differed from the others in several ways.

The 765 1964 Re-Edition has a more serene dial with baton markers and pencil hands, and a single numeral 12 at the top of the dial. The seconds and hour totalizer sub-dials have also been cleaned up a bit, while the unique minute totalizer remains at 3 o’clock. This particular watch has a 41mm case, is 14mm thick, and even touts an acrylic crystal for maximum vintage appeal. Additionally, the watch uses Breitling-made Caliber 23, a hand-wound chronograph movement with a 70-hour reserve.

The 765 1974 Re-Edition is probably the most striking modern watch to bear the AVI nameplate and respect the origin of the name in the best possible way. It’s a poignant reminder of the beauty that underpins the design language of modern Breitling. online men watches

Grand Seiko Evolution 9 Spring Drive Ushio Diver SLGA023 Watch

zelin0802

200-meter water resistance, +/- 10-second monthly accuracy, five-day power reserve, ceramic bezel and a dial reminiscent of the dynamic undulations of ocean waves, all wrapped in “high-strength titanium”: Grand Seiko Evolution 9 Spring Drive Ushio Diver The SLGA023 watch really seems to have it all, and we checked it out for ourselves at Watches & Wonders 2023 to see how it fares in the metal.

In 2020, Grand Seiko launched the SLGH002, a limited-edition timepiece powered by the next-generation caliber 9SA5, and a new design language now called Evolution 9 Style. As Grand Seiko explains: “The goal of Evolution 9 is to take the best elements of Grand Seiko’s design and improve upon it in a way that respects the brand’s history and embraces the future.” Its designer, Kiyotaka Sakai, started working on it in 2017 Develop this new design code and turn the clock back to 1967, back to the original epic 44GS. Like last year, 2023 will also expand the collection with more sporty styles, Sakai added: “I see no reason why we can’t use the Evolution 9 Style approach, which is the pointer and pointer approach and the lower gravity in the center, in the The same is true in sports watches.

The 44GS from 1967 was a rather unremarkable watch – until you saw the shape. It’s as angular, cool, and distinctive as Darth Vader’s helmet, and frankly, many Grand Seiko watches from the past decade have shown a similar approach to case profile design, well before the Evolution 9 Appear. That said, the concept of the Evolution 9 is not just for a single mid-century reference, but also for more contemporary pieces (both formal and sporty). Nonetheless, Grand Seiko seems excited about the “Evo 9” case style, which features arched quarters, pronounced crown protection and faceted treatment with flat brushed upper elements and distortion-free mirrored lugs on the top and sides .

While Grand Seiko prices have been rising over the years—nearly doubling in some cases in the past five years—the quality and sophistication of the Grand Seiko Zaratsu case finishing can hardly match that of the competition, Even over the $10,000 mark. Oddly enough, the bracelet finish is not always the same, as the brand more frequently opts for full brushed bracelets without any polished links, not even the narrow links on either side of the center link. These may seem more technical and purposeful, but, when seen in metal, they rarely, if ever, match the sophistication of the watch heads, which feature smooth ceramic bezels, polished Bezel profile, crown and lug bevels. The SLGA023 is in this configuration, and we can’t help but think a little more bling on the bracelet would have been nice.

The dial of the Grand Seiko Evolution 9 Spring Drive Ushio Diver SLGA023 is as much a piece of jewelry as it is a functional part, like its case. Japan’s coastal waters are influenced by the Kuroshio Current, one of the world’s major ocean currents, and the nutrient-rich waters of the Oyashio form one of the most diverse marine areas in the world. It is the dynamic ebb and flow of these ocean currents that the Ushio dial pattern expresses – ushio means tide in Japanese (which is also a name). Grand Seiko has been mastering these crease dials for years – think fan favorites Birch and Snowflake, or the gorgeous Shosho – but with its softer, less processed and more natural patterns, this might just be the best yet one of.

The hands and hour markers of the SLGA023 are coated with LumiBrite, one of the brightest and therefore most interesting luminescent paints used on watches today. The hands are shaped differently, making them easier to distinguish and read, while the hour markers are applied and stand quite high from the plane of the dial, giving this dial its own high-end look. The high-strength titanium bezel is very wide, with blue ceramic inserts inside, and some pretty serious cutouts around its perimeter for a better grip. Only dots are illuminated on the bezel, the rest of the markings are white.

On the wrist, the SLGA023 is big — probably too big, unless you have really wide wrists. Measuring 43.8mm wide, 51.5mm lug-to-lug and 13.8mm thick, the Grand Seiko Evolution 9 Spring Drive Ushio Diver SLGA023 is a chunky dive replica best watches. A decade or more ago, few people would have rolled their eyes at hearing those measurements, but, with ushio taking the big watch trend, Grand Seiko may hope to start rolling out more compact dive watches soon.

On the plus side, the SLGA023 uses all that real estate to pack some serious tech, and is actually some of the best in its class. The Grand Seiko Evolution 9 Spring Drive Ushio Diver SLGA023 is powered by a 9RA5 Spring Drive movement – to learn everything you need to know about Spring Drive’s incredible history and performance, read my post on the subject here authoritative article. The 9RA5 is the latest major development in this technology and the most powerful Spring Drive base movement to date. It is 0.8mm thinner than the 9R6 series (down from 4.2mm to just 3.4mm), but offers an extended 5-day power reserve and features an indicator at 9 o’clock on the dial. Grand Seiko claims that its one-piece center bridge gives it “significantly greater durability and higher transmission efficiency,” and that it still boasts an accuracy of +/-10 seconds per month (also known as the daily maximum tolerance +/-0.5 seconds) per day). Unfortunately, the SLGA023 comes with a solid bottom cover, so you can’t see the 9RA5 inside.

A stunning dial, a beautiful titanium case, and one of the most innovative and high-performance spring-driven movements is exactly what we’ve come to expect from a Grand Seiko. SLGA023 meets all these requirements, but still has some shortcomings. While the market for large dive cheap men watches is still huge, we’d like to see Grand Seiko shift its focus to more compact and therefore less bulky ways to enjoy all this unfiltered horological greatness.

Urwerk Introduces the UR-220 “Project Falcon” Watch

zelin0802

Few luxury watch brands capture the look and feel of science fiction quite like Urwerk. Even in the rare and fantastic ranks of haute horlogerie, Urwerk has built a line over the past few years that feels more at home on the bridge of the Romulan Warbird than any other from Switzerland. When the brand announced earlier this year that it would be discontinuing its iconic Wanderlust UR-210 series, it left a gap in the lineup that audiophiles were eager to see filled. Now, after months of uncertainty, Urwerk has returned to the roaming time concept with the improved UR-220, internally dubbed “Project Falcon” during development. While outwardly similar to the previous UR-210, nearly every element of the watch has been redesigned, from the slimmer, more ergonomic case to the redesigned movement from the ground up. Thus, the Urwerk UR-220 “Falcon Project” continues one of the brand’s signature looks while redesigning it for the new decade.

The first iteration of the Urwerk UR-220 featured a 43.8mm x 53.6mm lugless oval case made of carbon thin-layer composite. This multi-layered material (the case has a total of 81 layers of ultra-thin carbon material) results in a dark, striped look reminiscent of Damascus steel, with a uniform pattern of circular stripes. While the distinctive polygonal bezel and sapphire crystal and 12 o’clock crown are carried over from the UR-210, judging by the initial images, the UR-220 is much more profiled than its predecessor. While this is still a relatively thick watch at 14.8mm, it’s still a full 3mm thinner than the UR-210. A party piece for the UR-220 is located on the caseback, where a small sapphire display window highlights the “Oil Change” counter. This is a rotating display that tracks the number of months since the last service and reminds you of the recommended 39-month service interval. This is a fun way to remind the owner of the importance of service, and might make for a great talking point. The water resistance of the UR-220 may become a less popular topic, as this complex case is only water resistant to 30 meters.

Like its predecessor, the real heart of the Urwerk UR-220 is the skeletonized dial with the instantly recognizable ‘satellite’ roaming hour display. While the general layout is carried over from the UR-210, initial images show a narrower, more angular and visually cleaner design for the new series, with each rotating hour markers and retrograde minute hand dominated by a new serrated edge. Used for numerals and The font of the dial text has also undergone major changes, and the UR-220 has chosen a militaristic, angular steel stamp appearance. However, in addition to the font change, the retrograde minute scale on the bottom third of the dial also features a ribbed surface detail. While the proportions may appear confusing at first glance, the combination of the large central hands with the current hour markers and the current minute quickly becomes intuitive. The UR-220 also features dual power reserve indicators at 10 o’clock and 2 o’clock, the model at 10 o’clock covers the movement’s entire 48-hour reserve capacity, while the indicator at 2 o’clock focuses on Last 24 hours reserved.

Despite more visual resemblance to the UR-210’s movement, the UR-7.20 hand-wound caliber inside the UR-220 has undergone significant changes from its predecessor. In addition to removing the automatic winding system found in the UR-210, the UR-7.20 also increased the power reserve to 48 hours while maintaining a single mainspring barrel. Power reserve has traditionally been Urwerk’s Achilles’ heel, as the sheer mass of the wandering hour and retrograde minute hands requires extra torque to move, and while 48 hours at a beat rate of 28,800 bph isn’t groundbreaking by any means, it’s important one step forward. Discount fake watches

In keeping with the slimmer, more detailed, more aggressive aesthetic of the UR-220 series, Urwerk paired this new model with its first-ever rubber strap. There’s a wealth of visual detail here, from the angle-scaling layers that flow into the integrated case to the woven canvas pattern on the main face. Urwerk claims the strap is Vulcarboné-cured for extra softness, and the strap is secured with Velcro for quick attachment and removal.

With the UR-220 “Falcon Project”, Urwerk brings a series of powerful updates to one of its iconic series without compromising the series’ techno-sci-fi spirit. Popular cheap watch

Jacob & Co. Epic X Chrono Tourbillon Blue Titanium

zelin0802

Any one of Jacob & Co.’s mostly exaggerated collections would be a great fit for those who live well and get lucky. But if that person also wants something a little sportier, not just faking sporty stripes and body creases, but something that actually fits his rough-and-tumble lifestyle, then the Epic X-Series has a charm. In place of the horological miracle glass windows of the company’s high-complication timepieces or the blocks of colored gemstones on the bulky precious metal cases, the Epic X is visually delicate and taut, not least because of the angled watch that seemingly extends from the bezel. The lugs endow the clock with a spidery menace, or the idealized body curves of a competitive swimmer.

In this series, the Chrono Tourbillon Blue Titanium is arguably the most convenient, not the few. At 47mm, it’s a massive watch, but the 14mm case height maintains a reasonable aspect ratio. Plus, the watch is still light and hard-wearing because instead of precious metals, it’s made entirely of titanium with a blue PVD coating to prevent scratches. The crown, pushers and lug inserts in white ceramic provide color contrast while keeping the weight low and exuding a certain nautical impression. In addition, the Chrono Tourbillon Blue Titanium is water resistant to 200 meters.

The Chrono Tourbillon Blue Titanium removes the typical jewels of a Jacob & Co. watch, replacing the counters of a traditional chronograph with a flying tourbillon at 6 o’clock, bringing a spectacle to the watch. Adding to the everyday practicality of the watch is the internal rotating bezel, which is operated by the crown at 10 o’clock. For timekeeping activities that do not require chronograph precision, the rotating minute track is an easy and convenient solution.

Another feature that lets the fake watches for sale show as much as possible is the translucent blue dial. With a sapphire crystal case back and skeletonized hands, the new exclusive column-wheel automatic movement JCAA09 is best showcased. The semi-skeleton movement has an open barrel with engraved bridges, circular graining on the plate and beveled and polished column wheel.

The blue-and-white colorway of the Epic X Chrono Tourbillon Blue Titanium with red lacquer accents on the hands and rotor engravings is designed for easy living on the docks. This makes it more wearable in everyday life and swimming for as long as one likes it; a complicated tourbillon watch that is robust enough to go most places with the wearer. In this case, the hollow design of the pointer, dial and movement, and the white hollow rubber strap with a honeycomb pattern also have a breezy and light overall effect. This is a cool watch for someone who is calm and confident.

There is some duplication between the running seconds at 9 o’clock and the one-minute flying tourbillon; but the latter does more than just show that the watch replica swiss is running. As a flying tourbillon without upper bridges, it is on the same level as the glass dial, turning a handsome sports watch into a stunning one.

Richard Mille RM038

zelin0802

Angus Davies reviews the Richard Mille RM038, a watch built for recent Augusta Masters winner Bubba Watson.

Bubba Watson wins the Augusta Masters.

At 6-foot-3, he’s a colossus in size and hits the ball with prodigious power, leading the PGA Tour in driving distance with an average of 313.1 yards.

Bubba was a refreshing change from the average golfer on the PGA Tour. He is self-taught and has developed his own very personal style.

Many golfers spend years training with coaches, holding the club in a certain way and honing their swing through video analysis, but not Bubba.

Wearing an all-white outfit with pink detailing, he used a pink driver to support the charity. On his website, Bubba states that “helping these charities, and more importantly, the families involved, means more than winning a golf tournament”. I suspect this is a mantra embraced by many sports coaches.

Bubba is approachable and recounts his humble origins and growing up in Baghdad, Florida. He opened up about his emotions, tearing up and hugging his mother affectionately as he celebrated his victory at the Masters.

During his playoff with Louis Osterhuizen during the Masters, his ball landed in the woods. The bushes should have thwarted his ambitions, thwarted his ambitions. However, Bubba said that after hitting the ball with such ferocity, golf wisdom would suggest imminent failure, “It’s just a crazy shot I see in my head.” The ball landed on the green. This is not one to follow the rules. copy watches for sale

So it’s no surprise that he wears an unconventional watch, the Richard Mille RM 038.

dial
The dial is unlike any other brand of watch. The design language of Richard Mille watches is inspired by Formula 1. Skeletonized hour and minute hands are one of the few details faithful to orthodox horology.

The bridge is shaped like an anti-roll bar and spans the dial. They are not made of untreated silver and do not have the Côtes de Genève pattern in line with other high-end timepieces on the market. Richard Mille never went with the flow.

The bridges, bridges and balance cock are all made of grade 5 titanium and are clearly visible through the sapphire crystal mounted on the front and back of the case. This isn’t horological porn designed just to tease, and it has its merits in the choice of materials used. Grade 5 titanium is lightweight, ensuring it won’t weigh down on the wearer. Bubba Watson, Felipe Massa and Rafael Nadal have all highlighted this key advantage, all of whom choose to wear Richard Mille watches while practicing their chosen sports.

The wearer can appreciate the spectacle of horological craftsmanship, as the tourbillon cage rotates to resist the effects of gravity. But unlike some tourbillons that require care to ensure their longevity, Richard Mille has given its models a solid structure that makes them extremely wear-resistant.

case
Richard Mille never seeks expediency when designing watches, and the case design perfectly reflects this. The three-plan case is made up of three key elements; top, sides, and bottom. The sides of the case are perfectly contoured, with the top and bottom perfectly aligned to keep out dust or moisture that could damage the precious work inside.

Two Nitrile O-rings mounted on the sides and front and back of the case further reduce the risk of compromising water resistance. fake watches for sale

The case is the culmination of countless machine processes, resulting in the striking silhouette synonymous with this captivating brand. Twelve grade 5 titanium spline screws and 316L stainless steel wear washers snap together like clamshells to protect the internal structure from potential damage.

The most striking thing about the case is the color, a lighter shade of whiter. Made of extremely strong WE54 magnesium, an electric plasma oxidation treatment called Miarox® provides the unique shade. It is this treatment, commonly used in the aerospace, automotive and medical sectors, that gives the case its scratch and corrosion resistance.

sports
Tourbillons are one of the most complex complications, often heavier and more delicate than normal. However, this is no ordinary sport. It’s strong and light.

The lightweight of the rotating barrel increases its speed and its accuracy by default.

The choice of movement material is eclectic, not seeking change, but approaching the watch from different perspectives. The results are amazing.

The beauty of the RM038 Tourbillon movement is the ability to see through the sapphire crystal the hard work of the gears and cogs. The movement is delivered in a unique form and made of high-tech materials.

Richard Mille doesn’t skimp on the details for its clients. This is a great example of polished pivots, polished sinks and beveled polished steel components.

Richard Mille did not follow accepted norms, copied other masters, and did not follow the herd. The RM 038 is a refreshing change from the approach taken by many watchmakers, who some feel seem to offer homogeneous watches that lack originality.

Richard Mille chose a unique course for the RM 038, a bit like the way Bubba Watson plays golf.

Bubba succeeded in the green belt of Augusta, while Richard Mille mastered the green valley of Swiss watchmaking with the innovative RM 038. buy watches online

Hublot Introduces Big Bang Integral Tourbillon Repeater Ceramic

zelin0802

ceramic acoustics.

After launching a series of candy-coloured ceramic integrated bracelet watches at Watches & Wonders 2022, Hublot has launched a ceramic “high complication”, the Big Bang Integral Cathedral minute repeater ceramic watch.

While complex end-to-end ceramic watches already exist, striking watches in ceramic are rare, with only Hublot and Audemars Piguet making such watches. The Big Bang Integral is a novelty combining a tourbillon and a minute repeater, in fact, one of them has a longer than usual cathedral gong.

It manages to be water resistant in contrast to most attention-grabbing watches that are merely resistant to moisture, due to the challenge of sealing the slider while allowing for maximum sound transmission.

The latest Big Bang Integral perfectly sums up Hublot as a brand, showcasing its strengths (and some weaknesses). Powered by a complex in-house movement, paired with a case and bracelet, it showcases the brand’s mastery of unusual materials – all thanks to the brand’s extensive and flexible manufacturing.

In typical Hublot fashion, the watch is loud visually rather than audibly — even in black. It looks like a Hublot, and the brand essentially has one aesthetic. It has a technically modern aesthetic that complements the open dial, a feature uncommon in minute repeaters but useful because it reveals the chiming mechanism in its entirety.

Good value for money for such a watch. At the same time, it has a higher finish on the ceramic case and bracelet than older Hublot models, which makes it even more attractive.

Ceramics and One
The Tourbillon Repeater is the flagship model of the Big Bang Integral collection, the brand’s first integrated bracelet watch, but only two years ago. Although recently introduced, the watch still feels familiar thanks to the well-designed bracelet integrated into the case.

While open dials are common for Hublot Review best watches, this is relatively rare for classic haute horlogerie complications such as the minute repeater. Here, it can reveal the striking mechanism usually hidden under the dial, giving you a glimpse of the rack and snail mechanism responsible for promoting the minute repeater to strike the time.

And the minute repeater utilizes a cathedral gong that wraps twice around the circumference of the movement, rather than once like a traditional minute repeater. The extended length makes a louder chime.

It is worth noting that the movement structure also incorporates thoughtful details. The tourbillon is not hindered by any gears like a tourbillon movement. Instead, the center wheel sits just on the edge of the tourbillon cage. This shows the attention paid to the aesthetics of the tourbillon, although it is tempered by the relatively simple frame.

It can be observed that the decoration of the movement is a mixture of machined and hand-finished.

For example, most of the bridges feature wide, flat bevels with faint machining marks indicating that the angles were done on a CNC machine. At the same time, more critical parts such as the hammers and bridges of the governor are decorated with circular polished chamfers that can only be done by hand.

On the front, however, the visible steel components are neatly finished with ruled surfaces and hand-chamfered edges. perfect cheap watch

Richard Mille: Two new sports versions of the RM 67-01

It is at the London Olympic Stadium, during the World Athletics Championships, that the public will be able to discover Richard Mille’s new creations on the wrists of Wayde Van Niekerk and Mutaz Essa Barshim: RM 67-02 Sprint and RM 67-02 High Jump, RM 67-01 sports version.

Olympic gold medalist and world record holder in the 400m and 300m, multidisciplinary athlete Wayde van Niekerk is the only person to run the 100m in under 10 seconds, the 200m in under 20 seconds, the 300m in under 31 seconds and the The athlete who ran the 400 meters in less than 44 seconds. At his side we will find Richard Mille’s new partner, the high jump specialist Mutaz Essa Barshim. The two-time Olympic medalist, Dohanai has produced four of the world’s best performances in the past five years, proving he has all the makings to become the sport’s record holder, 24 years after Javier Sotomayor.

The desire to create a watch that fits the athlete like a second skin, allowing a kind of “symbiosis” between them, is the guiding philosophy behind this new development.

Starting with the idea of injecting a sporty vibe into the RM 67-01, where its lightness, sophistication and ergonomics fit perfectly, the Richard Mille team redesigned its lines to reflect its sporty character. The appearance of the iconic four jagged appearances of the brand’s sports watches also contributes to the reinforcement of the structure.

The case features Carbon TPT® and Quartz TPT®, Richard Mille’s exclusive composite material for exceptional shock resistance. The low thickness of the bezel/middle/back at 7.80 mm does not alter in any way their physical characteristics or ability to handle all situations of high-level athletic practice.

The manufacture of Quartz TPT® consists in inserting layers of silica fibers with a maximum thickness of 40 microns. Deposited by a specific machine that changes the direction of the fibers between the two layers by 45°, they are impregnated with three new purple resins for the Qatari Mutaz RM 67-02 High Jump and green and yellow resins for the South RM 67-02 Sprint African Wade. The Carbon TPT® carbon fiber used for the case comes from the same process, but from carbon wire.

The taut lines of the carbon fiber TPT® and white gold oscillating weight, bridges and DLC-treated grade 5 titanium plates of the new ultra-thin in-house movement CRMA7 seem to be under tension, firmly emphasizing the sporty nature of this watch. A minimum of two hours of machining allowed extreme skeletonization of the board to be obtained, ending hundreds of hours of machine programming and tuning.

All gear trains have been optimized with specific profiled toothing, creating a 20° pressure angle for an excellent transmission of power from the barrel to the variable inertia balance, guaranteeing a constant rate of 50 hours. .

The satin-brushed beveled hands and clean lines of the CRMA7 movement exude a strong sense of power.
The lines of the dial, in harmony with those of the movement, are machined from a titanium plate just 4/10 mm thick. Treated black DLC, then hand painted in the colors of the two athletes’ flags.

To complete the wearability of its RM 67-02, Richard Mille has added a new comfort strap. One-piece and non-slip, its enhanced elasticity allows it to fit perfectly around the wrist, allowing it to adapt to various morphologies. The brand’s lightest strap ever, reducing the weight of the RM 67-02 to just 32 grams. The RM 67-02 is thus positioned as the lightest automatic watch in the Richard Mille collection.

Mutaz, Wayde and Yohan Blake will be the well-deserved representatives of Richard Mille in London. We have assured them of our full support for these World Championships and we wish them greatness.

What kind of experience is it to wear the great white shark in the deep sea?

zelin0802

We all know that Ulysse Nardin copy watches started from sailing. In the early days of the brand, they were famous for creating high-quality marine astronomical clocks. Today, the deep relationship between Ulysse Nardin and the ocean can be continued in Ulysse Nardin’s traditional and classic nautical MARINE series and diving watch DIVER series. As a symbol of the ocean, sharks have naturally become an important design element of Ulysse Nardin watches. In the past, diving watches with sharks as the theme were launched almost every year. Last year’s new product was the DIVER diving series chronograph watch “Great White Shark”. Limited edition, today let us once again take a look at this watch through real photos. (Watch model: 1503-170LE-1A-GW/3B)

The size of this Great White Shark watch is 44 mm. Although it is relatively large, because the watch is made of titanium, it has its own lightness and the excellent ergonomic design of Ulysse Nardin. Not only is it not very demanding on the wrist , but also a very comfortable wearing experience.

The screw-in crown on the other side is tightly protected by the shoulder guard design to prevent accidental collisions underwater and cause water to open. The upper and lower timing buttons are also designed with a lock handle. To perform timing, you need to open the lock handle before operating. As for the titanium shell, Ulysse Nardin has done a brushed finish for it.

This diver’s watch draws inspiration directly from the white-gray back and belly of the great white shark. When we look at the theme color of the watch, we restore the main color of white to match the gray dial and the silver-gray luster of the titanium case. And like the diving bezel, it also uses a white rubber rotating bezel with a record pattern, which is common in Athens diving watches.

The gray dial is not only embellished with blue and white elements, but also adds a sense of refreshment to the watch. At the same time, Ulysse Nardin has made a very fine grain texture effect for the gray dial, which is reminiscent of the great white shark with teeth. Scaly skin. As a diving watch with a chronograph function, it adopts a three-eye layout, and the sub-dial at 6 o’clock has a built-in round date window.

As a professional diving tool, we can see that this great white shark performs very well in terms of the necessary clarity and readability. You can see that the hands, time scales, and the starting position of the bezel at 0 o’clock are all coated with light blue Color Super-LumiNova™ luminous coating.

The bottom cover of the watch is engraved with the pattern of the great white shark. Compared with the previous special editions such as the blue shark, hammerhead shark, and lemon shark, the great white shark is definitely the most ferocious bottom cover design in the shark series. Under the bottom cover, Ulysse Nardin is equipped with a UN-150 self-winding movement, equipped with a silicon escapement device, which is accurate and reliable. The full chain can provide a 48-hour power reserve. Its performance is excellent, but some watch friends may I don’t know much about the UN-150 movement. In fact, this movement has a great background and has an interesting history. In fact, it was purchased from Ebel. If we go back to the source, the original version of the movement is the Lemania 1340 automatic timing In theory, it has the same origin as the Breguet 582 movement. Regarding the content of this movement, if there is a chance in the future, I will give you a detailed introduction again. fashion replica watches

The watch is equipped with a white rubber strap, which distinguishes two buckle styles, namely pin buckle and folding buckle. The tape of Athens is very comfortable, whether in terms of covering or softness. I often tell everyone that I like it very much. The rubber strap of the Ulysse Nardin diving watch is connected to the lugs. The extra link piece design is equivalent to an extra extension surface to touch your wrist, so that you can actually experience it with your hands, so that it can be well compatible with different sizes of wrist circumference.

Ulysse Nardin, the great white shark, has been introduced to watch friends. I once talked about this watch with you, saying that it actually shows the mature use and matching of colors in Athens, which makes the great white shark both sporty and elegant. It has a stylish style, making it not only suitable for professional underwater adventures within 300 meters of water resistance, but also suitable for daily wear. review cheap watch
