Jacob & Co. Astronomia Tourbillon Watch

In 2014, Jacob & Co. replica is back with some pretty amazing timepieces sure to impress everyone from traditional watch lovers to the general public. Watch the video below about the new Astronomia Tourbillon and it’s easy to see why the typical reaction to this complex and very interesting timepiece is “wow”. When and if the Astronomia will actually be produced is another question, but even if the timepiece remains a digital video, I’d be happy to create pure concepts.

The whole point of the Astronomia is to give you a “four-armed” movement that has a time dial (which twists to stay upright as the entire movement structure rotates around its axis), a tourbillon (which technically moves on two pivot points ), a rotating seconds indicator, and a rotating sphere reversed seconds indicator. Astronomia Sky more or less retains this performance (albeit differently in design and execution) and adds some astronomical complexity. Look around the perimeter of the dial through the face of the scene, and you’ll see a tiny hand that follows using a 12-month scale that runs along the entire face. Now, look at the center of this four-armed kinematic structure, and on top of it you’ll find a small sphere that looks like Earth. This globe has a hemispherical shield surrounding it as a day and night indicator. There are only two axis points to note here, other than the Earth’s rotation every 20 minutes, which is the 24-hour rotation of the diurnal index, as that is the rotation time of the four-armed movement. The little “world” itself is made of titanium and then hand-crafted Painted and carved. On the flow of this watch below the movement is a celestial star map with a zodiac indicator. This face is made of blued titanium (similar to our long-time favorite De Bethune watches) and features oval “sky indicator” hands. The entire dial actually rotates once a year,

Jacob & Co. was one of the first watchmakers to understand the power of the “crazy swiss luxury replica watches,” as a mechanical watch with an epic complication meant only to impress in a way that resembles the tone and substance of many rap music videos. Impressed. These are designed as “ultra-luxury lifestyle” watches for those who are bored of buying a new yacht and browsing eBay on their phone while waiting for their personal banker to leave the yacht toilet they’re currently sitting on. The only thing about a watch like this is that it should be more impressive than most other watches that rich people can afford.

Nothing I said was meant to be mean or sarcastic. That’s indeed a fairly small target audience for a timepiece like this. We’re talking about that new money, new big money. These consumers are keen to show off their wealth, but sometimes cannot afford to spend it. Having said that, a piece like the Astronomia Tourbillon does have an air of refined sophistication given its haute horlogerie pedigree. While Jacob & Co. may have a “diverse” clientele that represents who you do and don’t want to have dinner with, they certainly have the ability to get things done when they go all out.

There is very little information about the Astronomia Tourbillon at the moment, other than a video and pictures, Jacob & Co. did a great job preparing us for the ‘launch’ of the piece at Baselworld 2014. We hope to see it in person there or eventually. Sometimes best cheap watches like this first debut in computer rendering, only to be actually released a few years later because the time it takes to produce a working movement can be much longer. This may be the case, as the movement in the Astronomia Tourbillon seems very ambitious. While the watch itself is not an astronomical complication, it is themed around them. At the center of the watch is the “sun”, surrounded by four orbiting objects.

These items include the time dial (which remains upright in all positions as it moves around the main dial), a rotating globe model, a rotating spherical crystal (possibly a diamond), and finally, an impressive biaxial tourbillon. This It’s all based around a nifty planetary gearing that any engineering student (or watchmaker) would be proud to have as their semester project.

It’s not clear whether a spinning globe that aligns with Earth’s 24-hour cycle could be clearly used to indicate anything. It doesn’t even matter, because the simple action of it looks fun enough. The dial was probably the most impressive to me at the time, as it was both legible and quite complex in visual presentation.

Jacob & Co. introduces the Astronomia Tourbillon, featuring a large diameter 18k rose gold case with a bezel and glass made from a single block of sapphire crystal. This allows a full view of the dial from all angles. Also note the lack of a crown, which means it’s either on the top of the watch or, more likely, somewhere on the back. The mechanical movement itself is designed to take up only a small portion of the dial to allow for roominess in the case and give the impression that the four “planets” have a lot of room to move. It is most likely hand-wound.

As a pure movement of horological decadence, the Astronomia Tourbillon is certainly a very interesting watch, and its production cost and final retail price may be just as awesome. We at aBlogtoWatch love this thing because it makes owning a simple timepiece so much more fun. We can look at our most basic “classic” watches and imagine that somewhere out there, someone might be wearing an Astronomia Tourbillon and reading at the same time of day, but more ornate.

Aviation watch, you still have to look at Breitling

Everyone knows how popular sports watches are nowadays, and among sports swiss watches, watches related to “ocean” and “aviation” are even more popular. Today I want to talk to you about the watch industry. The aviation table of the “fighter”. Among all kinds of aviation watches, I personally prefer Breitling.

In Breitling’s more than one hundred years of watchmaking history, the exploration and implementation of aviation watches have always been carried out. Combining years of aviation watchmaking experience, it has given prominent characteristics to brand products.

“Aviation Computer” Breitling

If one word is used to describe Breitling’s profound history and outstanding achievements in the field of aviation watches, it is “aviation computer”.

The first aviation chronograph launched by Breitling

The love relationship between Breitling and aviation watches can be traced back to 1915. Gaston Breitling developed the first chronograph watch, providing the first aviation chronograph watch for the pioneers of flight, and also for Breitling’s in-depth research on flying watches. Foundation.

When the time came to 1932, Breitling ushered in the third generation of Willy Breitling, the head of Breitling. With his youthful vision and bold ideas, he foresaw the future of Breitling in the blue sky, so he opened up a new field for the brand, namely aviation. Timing field. He also led the founding of the “Huit Aviation Flight Department”, which designs sophisticated cockpit instrument panels for the fledgling aviation field. Breitling has since risen to fame and is favored by aviation professionals, especially senior officers of the Air Force.

Twenty years later, in 1953, Breitling launched a new type of flight instrument AVI 765 pilot watch, which was presented in a wearable form. “Pilot” watch, and affected the shape and performance of later pilot watches. In 2020, Breitling launched a 1953 replica of an AVI 765 watch, which fully reproduced antique watches. Compared with the prototype model, the replica watch has only two significant differences: one is the removal of the word “Geneve” on the dial, and the other is that the water resistance is increased to 30 meters, which has a high collection value.

And this year, Breitling used the “Co-Pilot” Ref. 765 AVI pilot watch and four legendary fighters (North American P-51 Mustang fighter, Water F4U Corsair carrier fighter, Curtis P-40 Warhawk fighter and De· Havilland Mosquito Bomber) for design inspiration, launched the new Super AVI series watch, which is also the first series of Breitling legendary aviation watches.

Charm from flying

Breitling CEO George Cohen said: “This series of watches embodies a nostalgia for the early aviation era, when pilots relied on watches as an onboard tool. But even if you are not a pilot or a fan of vintage airplanes, I can appreciate its extraordinary craftsmanship and sturdy design.” These remarks illustrate Breitling’s emphasis on the new Super AVI series, and also reflect the brand’s confidence in the quality of the series.

Retro aesthetics, unique design

The Super AVI series watches are based on the brand’s century-old aviation watchmaking experience and have designed many iconic features for the watch models.

The case size is 46 mm, continuing Breitling’s usual tough guy style. Corresponding to the “large diameter” are the “large hour markers” and the “large crown”. The dial and bezel are engraved with clear and easy-to-read capital Arabic numerals. The oversized crown is located at 3 o’clock. It can also be easily adjusted with thick aviator gloves.

The two-way rotating bezel is decorated with knurled pits, which can provide the wearer with the best grip.

The brand equips this series of watches with a calfskin strap. The stitched style is intended to pay tribute to the stitching on the leather flight suits of that era, with all the details.

The Super AVI series launched by Breitling this time contains five different styles with distinctive features. Next, we will introduce these watches one by one.

Aviator 8 Curtis Warhawk Fighter Watch

The Super AVI P-51 Mustang fighter watch pays tribute to the all-around fighter North American P-51 Mustang fighter in two different styles. One has a stainless steel case with a black dial, and the other has a 18K red gold case. Equipped with an anthracite dial to meet the different styles of players.

The Super AVI Tribute Water F4U Corsair Carrier Fighter Watch inspired by the paint of navy fighter jets uses a blue dial. The timer is the same color as the dial, echoing the ocean elements.

In 2019, to commemorate the partnership with the iconic P-40 Warhawk fighter manufacturer, Breitling launched three Aviator 8 Curtis Warhawk fighter watches, which aroused unanimous praise from players.

This year, the Curtis Warhawk fighter element is applied to the watch again. The Super AVI Curtis Warhawk fighter watch is equipped with a military green dial with a white timer and red decorations. The color contrast is sharp, showing the famous The art style of shark mouth is highly recognizable.

The bezel of the Super AVI Mosquito Bomber watch is more unique. It is made of polished and satin-finished black ceramic. The orange and red elements of the hands and the white sub-disc are not only reminiscent of the De Havilland Mosquito Bomber. Discs and marks.

Self-produced movement with outstanding performance

The new Super AVI series watches not only have excellent appearance, but also remarkable in terms of performance. Like the aviation watch launched by Breitling before, it also has a timing function. There are 30-minute counters, 12-hour counters and small seconds counters at the 3, 6, and 9 o’clock positions of the dial, and the date display window is located at 6 o’clock, with complete functions.

In addition to the timing function, Breitling also added a GMT function for it. Pilots or other travelers can check the time in the second time zone through the 24-hour mark on the inner bezel and the red pointed Greenwich Mean Time hands.

Through the back of the watch, we can see the Breitling-made B04 movement carried by the watch. This movement is one of the few automatic mechanical chronograph movements that can perfectly provide convenient dual time zone display. It has an exclusive patented system that can be used to eliminate differential gear gaps, making time zone changes smoother and more convenient and will not cause any interference with minute, second time and chronograph. In addition, the B04 movement has been certified by the Swiss Observatory and can provide approximately 70 hours of power reserve and is water-resistant to 100 meters.

As fake Breitling Creative Director Sylvain Benilon said, “We cannot forget that Breitling created aviation tool watches such as the AVI 765 model. This tradition is so powerful that we must not only keep it intact, but also Re-write it in the 21st century.” From its first entry into the aviation field to becoming an undoubted “aviation computer”, Breitling has experienced a century of journey. The launch of the new Super AVI series of watches symbolizes Breitling’s exploration of aviation watches. To a new level, and its fate with aviation continues.

Delacor Replica watches

Its excellent cylindrical structure is very complicated in realization to ensure this perfect visual harmony. replica watches price

A excellent work is born, the chassis seems to be lost. The four rigid tubes constituting their structures are roughly exposed to the inside of the watch, thereby revealing all of its purity gear lines. This new model shows Drak’s expertise and has two new technologies:

First, the fine insertion of the cylinder is adjusted to a perfect vertical axial structure as a bridge, and the maximum rigidity of the movement is given.

Then, additional glossy turret reflects like a mirror, high quality reflecting light. This is the novelty in the modern watchmaking, which brings transparency, while temptation of weight loss. Like its tray, the side wings of this watch reflect the heart of the best replica watch.
