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

The same Franck Muller Vanguard chronograph as the Master Square

Looking at the new Franck Muller Chronograph, many people will mistake this product for the Franck Muller Master Square watch – because of its design.

Looking at the new Franck Muller chronograph, many people would mistake it for a Franck Muller Master Square watch – because the dial design is quite similar to its predecessor in contemporary art style.

The new chronograph from the Vanguard collection is said to bring out the magic of the popular children’s movie Charlie and the Chocolate Factory: golden tickets wrapped in chocolate candy. Then here, different from the traditional watch design, will be the most precise and accurate chronograph movement.

Because the design of this watch is too similar to the older model of the Franck Muller Master Square watch, many people are not very excited, because the numbers on the dial look rather ugly – according to contemporary art. Except for the familiar Franck Muller Geneve watch lettering under the number 12, it is easy to see. But this is a truly extraordinary watch.

The tonneau-shaped case is available in 3 versions: 18K rose gold, stainless steel or titanium, which many consider to be a product of the Franck Muller Master Square watch because of the variety of materials, both high-end and luxurious. But for watchmakers, materials aren’t much of an issue. They had to make 2 diving chronograph dials under the 2 main hour hands, parallel to the 2 numerals at 3 and 9 o’clock – which was difficult for them. Apparently, people say the numbers on the Moulin Master Square watch are hard to see, but the Vanguard Chronograph made it even more difficult by designing a watch with numbers and hands so close together. Still, customers say the model looks really good, and they can still easily read the numbers on the dial.

The Franck Muller Vanguard Chronograph is powered by the Franck Muller 7000 self-winding movement, decorated with 27 jewels and jewels, with a power reserve of 49 hours and a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour (equivalent to 4Hz). This authentic Swiss brand is also decorated in a Côtes de Genève style with round beads evenly distributed.

The watch is quite large, measuring 44mm wide, 53.7mm long and 15.8mm thick. Wear it and your wrist is sure to stand out. If the Franck Muller Master Square is known for its use of Arabic numerals, Vanguard uses traditional numerals. The watch is inherently large and “oversized” and the use of Arabic numerals makes it look “clunky”.

Along with the number 6, the hour indicator has been removed and replaced with a date box. A lot of people commented that they didn’t really like the change, but the alligator strap – attached to the ears, the rubber band on the back makes it easier to remove the strap, and the grey dial makes it easier to see the colored dial than the others. discount replica watches

Richard Mille: 2022 Le Mans Classic Limited Edition

As a sponsor of the Vintage Le Mans Classic, Richard Mille has once again designed a limited edition timepiece. The eye-catching design should mainly appeal to fans who like the look of special retro cars.

The new RM 029 Automatic Le Mans Classic is the eighth model created as part of the Richard Mille event sponsorship. This tradition started in 2002. “Enthusiasts immediately recognized the timeless color combination of green and white,” the company said in an Instagram post. (Also interesting: Italian coach inspired Richard Miller RM 11-04)

The RM 029 Automatic Le Mans Classic is designed to celebrate the world’s largest historic motoring event – not least because the race, which is usually held every two years, is now scheduled for 2022 and 2023 due to the corona pandemic. 2023 is also a special year in the history of the Le Mans Classic, as that year will mark the centenary of the 24 Hours.

Richard Mille: Details of a strictly limited timepiece
Particularly striking is the skeletonized dial, which offers a glimpse into the interior of the white and green quartz case. The RMAS7 titanium automatic movement works there. The typical racing double stripes at twelve and six o’clock on the bezel are equally visually striking, giving the watch a retro look. Small orange details on the dial and crown support this look. The design is also special, as fake Richard Mille has integrated an enlarged date display at four o’clock in addition to the words “Le Mans”. There is also a 24-hour counter at 1 o’clock – a function suitable for a 24-hour race.

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

MB&F LMX Steel & Brass, Episode 3 of the LMX Series

When you can’t get enough of the good stuff!

Ten years — eleven years to be exact — have passed since MB&F’s Legacy Machine No. 1 launched. Introduced in 2011, the LM1 was a groundbreaking timepiece that countered MB&F’s signature galactic style, with classic features and a flying balance wheel on the dial. The LM1’s two white lacquered dials represent the two time zones, marking the first milestone in the legacy of the Legacy Machine collection. To celebrate its first decade in 2021, MB&F revisits the LM1 concept with a new model. Designated as LMX, many elements from sport to the cutting edge surface for an even more dynamic spectacle. The latest LMX Steel & Brass, with its gorgeous gold-brushed brass dial and gleaming stainless steel case, writes the third episode of the series.

Brass Motherboard
The lovely champagne matte color of the background set is made of untreated brass and corresponds to the reverse side of the main board. Like other LM models, the exposed moving parts of the watch face are not mounted on the dial, but on a brass plate that serves as the dial. Unlike earlier versions of the LMX with green CVD and black NAC treated plates, the natural golden luster of the brushed brass brings a pleasant warmth to the composition, contrasting with the brightly polished stainless steel case.

Two-way time shuttle
The guiding light behind the Legacy Machine is to explore what kind of watch Max Büsser would have dreamed of if he had been born in 1867. Filled with an aesthetic nod to traditional 19th-century watchmaking norms, the Legacy Machine incorporates the dynamic dynamism of MB&F. An elevated 14mm balance wheel hangs from the center of the dial (you can read all about the evolution of the LM in this article).

Against a lovely frosted background, two classic white lacquered subdials with a gold frame, Roman numerals and blue hands appear on the base. Its 50° inclination allows the owner to see at a glance two different time zones, which in turn can be adjusted via corresponding crowns on the steel case at 10 and 2 o’clock.

Following the design upgrade of the LMX, the lines of the 44mm stainless steel case are more streamlined and refined, and the hollow area extends along the strap. The 21.4mm height, including the super-dome sapphire crystal that contains the elements, ensures viewing pleasure from every angle.

exposed elements
Unlike the more enclosed appearance of the original LM1, the LMX reveals many functional elements, but they are arranged symmetrically. Proudly, the massive 13.4 mm floating balance wheel beats at 18,000 beats per hour, almost rubbing the high-dome sapphire crystal. Equipped with inertia blocks for increased accuracy, the balance is held in place by beautiful arched V-cleats.

At noon, located under the bridge is the hemispherical power reserve indicator, an evolution of the vertical power reserve indicator on the LM1. The numbers 1-7 on the arched scale indicate how much power is left in the powerful 7-day (168-hour) tank, and you can also see the working day displayed on the other side of the hemisphere. Thanks to the rotation of the entire display, you can adjust the direction via the crown to view the power reserve or the work day. Continuing on the vertical axis, the components of the gear train are exposed on the tomahawk-shaped escapement bridge and the running seconds hand at 6 o’clock. review replica watches

Echoing the crowns at the 10 and 2 o’clock positions of the case, the dial’s two horizontally-aligned wheels sit above two titled sub-dials, which rotate when the time on either dial is adjusted.

The sapphire crystal caseback showcases MB&F’s hand-wound 367 partial calibre, with three concentrically arranged mainspring barrels that provide a powerful 7-day power reserve. This Steel & Brass version showcases untreated brass plates and bridges on the back, decorated with Côtes de Genève and other refined 19th-century handmade finishes.
