Bulgari celebrates 140th anniversary with new Octo Finissimo automatic sketch dial

Bulgari celebrates 140th anniversary with new Octo Finissimo automatic sketch dial The cool “sketch dial” concept is back, this time revealing the mechanics beneath the dial. wholesale watches replica

Launched over a decade ago (how time flies…), Bulgari’s Octo Finissimo collection has become one of the most successful legends in recent watchmaking history. These watches not only broke slim records one after another, but also redefined the concept of ultra-thin watches with modern design and casual wear. To celebrate the tenth anniversary of the collection, Bulgari has released a pair of cool models with sketch dials. One of the most popular models in the collection, the Octo Finissimo Automatic Sketch Dial returns to celebrate the brand’s 140th anniversary.

Bulgari was founded in Rome in 1884 by Greek silversmith Sotirio Bulgari, where the brand remains headquartered. As one of the most prolific watchmaker/jewellers in the industry, the brand is known for its bold designs such as the time-honored and iconic Serpenti – watches and jewelry. Bulgari’s watchmaking craftsmanship combines the Italian “Sweet Life” (Dolce Vita) style with the seriousness of true Swiss manufacturing. In recent years, with the launch of a number of high-complexity watches, it has become more and more sophisticated. The more important… But mainly the Octo Finissimo, which is one of the most important watches. Iconic creations over the past decade have propelled the brand’s development in the watch industry.

On the occasion of the brand’s 140th anniversary, Bulgari has chosen the Octo Finissimo Automatic, a second generation watch with improved case and specifications, as the basis for two limited edition watches. Important is the return of the “Sketch Dial” concept, first launched in 2022 to mark the tenth anniversary of the collection and as a tribute to its designer Fabrizio Buonamassa Stigliani. Today, these two watches are highly sought after, available in both automatic and chronograph versions, paying homage to the dial design. The Octo Finissimo Automatic 140th Anniversary Edition once again features a hand-painted dial, but this time revealing the mechanics beneath the dial. patek philippe nautilus

Let’s talk about the basics first. Not surprisingly, we have the classic Octo Finissimo Automatic Watch MK2 version. This means that the watch is made of stainless steel or 18k rose gold, with satin and polished facets (not the original sandblasted style at launch), and the case has been improved to be more user-friendly, with comfortable 100m water resistance and screw-down Crown. This evolution comes at the expense of thickness, which is now 6.40mm instead of the original 5.15mm. Despite this, the Octo Finissimo Automatic watch is still one of the thinnest automatic watches on the market. The 40mm diameter and overall design are now mature.

As mentioned before, Bulgari offers a choice between classic stainless steel and luxurious 18K rose gold with a matching bracelet. These slim bracelets come in equally satin and polished finishes and close with a hidden butterfly clasp. The sapphire crystal case back reveals the in-house caliber BVL138, an ultra-thin automatic movement (just 2.23 mm tall) wound by a platinum micro-rotor that, despite its thinness, boasts a comfortable 60-hour power reserve. The watch is larger in size, with most parts exposed on the horizontal plane, and is decorated with Côtes de Genève stripes, circular textures and beveled bridges. The crystal is specially engraved with the words “Editizione Limitata” and “1884-2024”, as well as the limited edition of the watch. replica richard mille watch

However, this is not the only side of the watch where the movement is visible… The new sketch dial of this Octo Finissimo Automatic 140th Anniversary Edition pays homage to the mechanism. The sandblasted base dial is colored to match the material of the case and features a hand drawing by Buonamassa Stigliani, his first sketch for the BVL138 movement. Of course, this isn’t for everyone and is definitely an acquired taste, but it adds a human, fun touch to a fairly serious watch. For contrast, the hands are black PVD-coated and satin-finished – although the small seconds at 7 o’clock is barely visible. best fake watches

Breitling Endurance Pro

Equipped with a state-of-the-art thermally compensated SuperQuartz™ movement, the fake Breitling Endurance Pro is a high-precision, durable and lightweight watch for men and women whose active life blends a professional mentality with a sporty lifestyle.

This luxury sports watch combines high precision, innovative technology and a vibrant, colorful design. Offering optimum comfort, unparalleled precision and functionality, this timepiece will appeal to committed athletes and more casual sports enthusiasts.

The Breitling Endurance Pro combines an ultralight 44mm Breitlight® case. Breitling launched Breitlight® in 2016. The properties of this strong, ultra-light material speak for themselves: 3.3 times lighter than titanium and 5.8 times lighter than stainless steel, the material is non-magnetic, thermally stable and hypoallergenic.

Breitlight® is highly scratch, traction and corrosion resistant. It’s also warmer to the touch than metal and has a slightly textured effect that accentuates the originality of the design. Exclusive to Breitling, 100% Swiss Made.

SuperQuartz™ movements power every piece in the Breitling Professional collection, tool watches that have long been a favorite of explorers and pilots. The Endurance Pro brings the collection into the world of sports, in which Breitling also has an important legacy.

The Endurance Pro is inspired by the Breitling Sprint, an unforgettable 1970s watch that combines a pulsometer with impressive light weight. It’s ideal for athletes who want to monitor their heart rate. It’s made of resin, so it’s especially comfortable on the wrist. It’s also produced in some dazzling colors from the 1970s, and the Endurance Pro is clearly a modern evolution of that design.

The new Breitling Endurance Pro is available in five colourful variants. Each watch features a black dial and a black bidirectional rotating bezel with engraved compass base points (N, S, E and W). The five variants are distinguished by their respective bold colors: They are designed with an inner ring marked with a useful pulsometer scale and are available in white, blue, yellow, orange or red, making it easy for users to track them during exercise heart rate. The watch comes with a Diver Pro rubber strap in the same colour as the inner ring. The strap is secured with a Breitlight® double-pin buckle.

For Endurance Pro fans who want to add more color to this already dazzling watch, the vibrant Outerknown ECONYL® Yarn NATO Strap can be purchased separately to complement this striking chronograph.discount replica watch

The watch also features a tactile molded crown in the same color as the strap and inner bezel for excellent grip and maneuverability.

At the heart of the Endurance Pro is the COSC-certified Breitling Calibre 82, whose SuperQuartz™ technology delivers exceptional precision. This thermally compensated SuperQuartz™ movement is ten times more accurate than conventional quartz.

The hour and minute hands are coated with SuperLumiNova® for easy readability even in limited light. The chronograph second hand has a red hand, so it is easy to keep track of the elapsed time. In addition to the small seconds dial, there are 1/10 second and 30 minute counters, which are also designed for easy reading.

The Breitling Endurance Pro is water resistant to 10 bar / 100 meters / 330 feet.

Bovet Récital 20 Astérium watch

Bovet fake has created some of the most exquisite and complicated timepieces. Last year, in 2016, they released the Bovet Récital 18 Shooting Star – a limited-edition, otherworldly watch that we experienced here firsthand. In addition to the recent launch of the Virtuoso VIII 10-day flying tourbillon Big Date, Bovet continues the tradition of its Récital models with the Bovet Récital 20 Astérium, which includes a flying tourbillon with night sky chart, a perpetual calendar and a series of Celestial astronomical functions, all with 10-day power reserve. It’s an absolutely breathtaking creation that retains Bovet’s reputation for producing rather grandiose pieces.

Bovet knows how to capture the hearts of those obsessed with beautifully complicated timepieces designed to be a symphony on the wrist. With so much going on, it’s certain that the translucent blue sapphire dome stands out first. Before filling Super-LumiNova, it was fully laser engraved with maps of the stars and constellations visible on Earth. That alone is enough to show that Bovet is starting to create something far beyond what most people expect from a watch. With such majestic functionality, design aesthetics and extreme attention to detail, we can agree that it actually falls into the ranks of high-end mechanical art at this point.

With a diameter of 46 mm, the Bovet Récital 20 Astérium is built around the concept of a sidereal year, following the actual orbital period of the Earth around the sun – 365.25 days. This is a calendar function, and can actually be seen from the case back, where we find a central hand that performs a full rotation every 365.25 days. Furthermore, as we move from the outer edge of the bezel on the case back, we find the annual calendar (date and month), the signs of the zodiac and the corresponding constellations, as well as the indications of the seasons, solstices and equinoxes. At this point, it’s easy to see how one simply revels in pure admiration for this dedication and attention to detail. But as is typical of Bovet, there is always more.

Turning to the dial, the Bovet Récital 20 Astérium manages to pack together two hemispherical indicators and a hemispherical precision moon phase indicator with an integrated time equation complication. In the lower right of the night sky, we find a 10-day power reserve indicator that shares a position with the retrograde minute hand. Now, the hour hand itself can handle three functions. It also points north as it moves along the dedicated 24-hour dial, and in addition to indicating the time, features the oval window of the night sky. best quality replica watches

On top of that, we get a stunning view of the patented double-sided flying tourbillon, which gives us a glimpse into its power. The movement is the 17DM02-SKY – a hand-wound movement that operates at 18,000vph. The tourbillon itself is equipped with a variable inertia balance, which Bovet is paired with a carefully selected balance spring. It seems like a serious dedication to timing technology, everything we expect from Bovet and more. The Bovet Récital 20 Astérium will be available in red gold, white gold or platinum case configurations that can be customized in the way Bovet has traditionally offered. It comes with an alligator leather strap with an 18K red or white gold pin buckle.

Bovet is committed to creating horological works of art for collectors who can appreciate and afford its craft products. Taking its rightful place in the Récital collection, the Bovet Récital 20 Astérium will be a visual horological treat. fake luxury watches

FP JOURNE LINESPORT CENTRIGRAPHE

When dining at a Michelin-starred restaurant, it’s inappropriate to order a fine example of haute cuisine and kill it with Heinz ketchup. Likewise, dangling furry dice from a Bentley’s rearview mirror is out of place. Unparalleled creation should be respected.

Close to Geneva’s retail boulevards and seemingly far from the shopper’s world, this is a sanctuary for those with a discerning temperament. FP Journe cheap is headquartered in Rue de l’Arquebuse. The company’s premises serve three purposes: it holds the administrative functions of the company, it is a boutique, and most importantly, it hosts some of the finest watchmaking that can be found anywhere on the planet.

As the heavy door opened for me, I was warmly received by my host, and I entered a familiar world. At least twice a year, I make a pilgrimage to FP Journe’s highly regarded watchmaking factory. The walls are adorned with horological artifacts and books, while light floods the spacious room, providing the most discerning eye with a means of seeing the remarkable quality up close. Along with the many visual spectacles among me, there is a soothing soundtrack of ticks and ticks. Luxurious furniture, optimally positioned around the room, exudes sophistication. Wearing a casual suit, I feel well dressed and ready to rate the new FP Journe LineSport Centrigraphe.

The FP Journe LineSport Centrigraphe is now available in platinum or 18 karat 6N yellow gold. The chosen case material determines the tone of the dial. 18-karat 6N yellow gold case with “ruthenium-plated” silver guilloché dial. The latter treatment fills the dial with shades of grey.

Matte 5N gold hands effectively display the hours and minutes. Their curvaceous lines fit with FP Journe’s tried-and-true design language and successfully combine functionality and beauty with radiant effects.

No aspect of the FP Journe timepiece is perfunctory, and that includes the indexes. Applied Roman numerals, made of 18 karat 6N gold to convey the message with incredible balance. The high-end brand has skillfully manipulated the digital scales to inject another oomph into the dial. The white chemin de fer follows tradition and makes reading meeting minutes easier.

However, I’m saving this for last. Positioned center stage, the three chronographs, combined with the mirror-polished frame, have equal prominence. Each register is the same size, with silver guilloche and slim red hands. 20-second counter at 2 o’clock, 10-minute counter at 6 o’clock and 1-second counter at 10 o’clock. The latter indication gets the most attention, making a frantic detour every second.

This remarkable chronograph can measure elapsed time to an incredible 1/100th of a second. Furthermore, it can display this information in a highly legible, easily interpretable form.

case

FPJourne chose to house the watch in a case made from 18 karat 6N gold. This gives the watch a distinctive red hue that surpasses even the ebullient performance of the more commonly used 5N red gold. This shade gives the FP Journe LineSport Centrigraphe an amazing aesthetic look.

The bezel elegantly blends black and gold tones, while the crown at 4 o’clock lives up to another of the brand’s legendary design codes.

At 2 o’clock, a patented rocker mechanism starts, stops and resets the chronograph. While some brands are obsessed with chronograph precision, they seem to forget the importance of the wearer’s interaction with the putter. The joystick is more intuitive to use than normal buttons, so the time from observing an event to starting the chronograph is shorter, providing a more accurate measurement of elapsed time. François-Paul Journe has repeatedly demonstrated his ability to see details overlooked by his contemporaries.

Apart from the highly polished vertical sides, the bracelet has a matte finish. Once again, this subtle detailing sets this watch apart from competing watches, but without sacrificing beauty and taste.

The Calibre 1506 is a hand-wound movement that can be seen through the exhibition caseback. As with most of FPJourne’s movements, it is crafted in 18-karat rose gold.

Any FP Journe movement has two things in common: technical prowess and finishing. The Calibre 1506 installed on the FP Journe LineSport Centrigraphe continued this reputation.

François-Paul Journe chose to equip the chronograph with its own drive train, driven directly by the mainspring. When starting many chronographs, the amplitude of the balance wheel decreases, reducing accuracy. Calibre 1506 has two independent trains, which solves this problem, ensuring that the time indication is not affected. When the chronograph is inactive, the watch has a power reserve of 80 hours. When the chronograph is running, it goes down to 24 hours.

The Monsieur Journe is also equipped with a movement with a free-spring balance. By adjusting the four masses mounted on the spokes of the balance wheel, a competent watchmaker is able to change the moment of inertia, increasing/decreasing the ratio. This provides superior precision compared to common curb adjusters.

Gold is one of the least reactive metals in existence, so it does not corrode easily. However, most watchmakers avoid this material because it is so soft that it is easy to mark with random tools. Nonetheless, the punctual watchmakers at FP Journe clearly operate the tools with dexterity and composure. Clearly, FP Journe watches are designed to last for generations. high quality replica watches

Côtes de Genève pattern and gold-engraved text on the plywood. The baseplate features a pearl pattern and the crown wheel features a sunburst pattern. Each screw head is polished, gleaming, and has a chamfered groove. The nails have polished rounded ends.

Viewing the movement through the sapphire crystal, every visible jewel, pin and screw is housed in a polished sink. The dip provides a gleaming edge between the deck and the sides. Every element of the movement has an extraordinary look.

My love for the FP Journe LineSport Centrigraphe is obvious. I have considered every element of this watch and can’t seem to find a fault. It offers the ownership experience that most self-respecting enthusiasts should aspire to experience.

In fact, the term “experience” seems most apt when entering the realm of FP Journe and its esteemed founder, François-Paul Journe. There is a sense of occasion. The watch sits on a gorgeous brown tray, the timepiece is always handled with gloves, and a magnifying glass is provided to see every square millimeter of perfection. best quality replica watches

I’ve never taken a “wrist photo” of an FP Journe watch because it looks almost disrespectful. These watches, like the peerless pieces I mentioned earlier, deserve respect. In fact, the next time I go to the company’s boutique, I’ll probably consider wearing a black tie suit.

Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Self-winding Flying Tourbillon

50 years is an important anniversary for the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak. One of the updated models is the Royal Oak Self-Winding Flying Tourbillon, with three new additions to the collection: one in rose gold, one in stainless steel and one in titanium.

The first two have a plain smoked blue dial with the Grande Tapisserie motif, while the third has a matte blue dial. Each new model is powered by the calibre 2950, ​​which debuted in 2020, with a power reserve of 65 hours and a frequency of 21,600 vibrations per hour. Only now, on the back of the movement is a special gold oscillating weight with the “50 Years” logo, bringing attention to the Royal Oak’s 50th anniversary on the agenda.

This watch features design improvements aimed at improving its appearance. Improvements include wider bevels on the case and bracelet to better emphasise the effect of light on the surface; first link thickness on the one-piece bracelet is tapered to emphasise slimness for a more comfortable fit; slightly cut A sapphire crystal case back to better fit the wearer’s wrist; and hour markers and hands with new proportions that are more in harmony with the dial. Despite the changes, the watch still measures 41 x 10.6 mm, the same as the existing self-winding tourbillon. Audemars Piguet fake

The Audemars Piguet lettering on the dial is made from a thin layer of 24-karat gold using a galvanic growth process that the Associated Press describes as a chemical process similar to 3D printing. The letters are connected by thin chains that are hard to see with the naked eye. They are then attached to the dial with the help of the shank. Originally, the method of appending letters was developed for Audemars Piguet’s Code 11:59 series. The updated tourbillon looks great, as do the existing models that people are already lining up to buy.

The movement is all blue? Panerai Lumino series red gold tourbillon is too eye-catching

Born in 1860, Panerai is known for its superb watchmaking craftsmanship and fearless display of mechanical beauty. It first produced precision instruments and watches for the Italian Royal Navy, and now it has become a very representative world-renowned watch. Table brand. Panerai watches are dominated by sports and leisure styles, ranging from basic big three needles to complex tourbillon watches. What we appreciate today is the Luminor Tourbillon GMT Goldtech™ Luminor series red gold launched by the brand last year. The Tourbillon Two Time Watch, it combines Italian style and refined aesthetics, showing the eye-catching timepiece charm. (Watch model: PAM01060)

Compared with the Luminor Tourbillon GMT Luminor Series Tourbillon Two Time Watches in the direct metal laser sintered titanium or ceramic case style launched in previous years, this watch has a more unique temperament. It is Panerai. The first Luminor Tourbillon watch with a Goldtech™ red gold case is very significant.

The special feature of Goldtech™ red gold material is that it contains 24% copper, which is higher than that of ordinary red gold, which makes the case appear more ruddy, and the addition of a certain proportion of platinum is also conducive to improving the alloy’s strength. Antioxidant effect.

A closer look reveals that cheap Panerai designers took a different approach to remove the bezel. Such a design is relatively rare on watches, but the effect is very good. The function of this watch is more complicated, and it is easy to make people feel cluttered if the design is not good. Removing the bezel can effectively enlarge the dial space on the basis of the same size, making it visually clearer and more consistent.

The design of the Panerai Luminor Tourbillon GMT Goldtech™ Luminor Series Red Gold Tourbillon Two Time Watch subverts traditional cognition. Color, can not help but make people shine. In addition, the digital hour markers, small seconds, 24-hour display and power reserve display are all suspended on the outer edge of the dial, giving the watch a more personal appearance and highlighting Panerai’s unique aesthetic concept.

Panerai’s iconic crown bridge protection device can also be seen on this watch. It is composed of a semi-circular bridge protection bridge and a mobile protection lever. When the protection lever is in the closed position, the crown can form a good shape. It is sealed to prevent water from entering the movement and guarantees the waterproof performance of the watch.

Like its predecessors, Panerai has equipped this watch with the P.2005/T movement made of titanium, the reverse of which is also plated in blue, in line with the overall style of the watch. The movement weighs only 23 grams, and the three connected barrels provide a power reserve of up to 6 days. It is worth mentioning that the tourbillon cage of this watch is perpendicular to the horizontal axis of the balance wheel and runs one revolution every 30 seconds, which is intended to better compensate for the gravitational force by increasing the number of rotations. The influence of the operation of the regulator reflects Panerai’s excellent watchmaking technology from the side.

The Panerai Luminor Tourbillon GMT Goldtech™ Luminor Series Red Gold Tourbillon Two Time Watch uses a precious metal case with a mechanical blue hollow dial, which not only intuitively shows the brand’s superb watchmaking skills, but also gives people For aesthetic enjoyment, interested friends can learn more about it.
