Corum Golden Bridge & Miss Golden Bridge Ceramic

In 2015, Corum celebrates the 35 years of its mythical movement Golden Bridge. An anniversary conjugated to the feminine and to the masculine and expressed by two new models which found the values of the brand: legitimacy and pioneering spirit.

When the brand Corum created the Golden Bridge in 1980, did its founder René Bannwart suspect that he had just launched a model which was not only going to become one of the pillars of his company but also an icon of the Swiss replica watchmaking?

The remarkable design of this timepiece all in transparency was certainly in line with the philosophy of a brand which wished from its creation to take place in the avant-garde of the watchmaking industry. The model completed an already very creative collection alongside with the very sporty Admiral’s cup watch. It also reached a branch of the watchmaking industry where no other watchmaking manufacturers had chosen to venture: the one of the “baguette en ligne” movement.

Thirty years later, this movement, which meanwhile became mythical, remains an exceptional achievement and a unique replica watchmaking expression. Composed of 140 components arranged in a parallelepiped rectangle of 33 mm in length, 3 mm in width and less than 5 mm in thickness, it is a masterpiece of micromechanics offering a balance wheel with variable inertia, a barrel with slipping spring, a power reserve of 40 hours, a 4 hertz frequency ensuring reliability and precision, and hand-engraved bridges and plate made of fine gold… At this level of miniaturization, there are few other pretenders.

The Miss Golden Bridge proposes a feminine expression of a design which has made his mark on the watchmaking history. It’s in a whole new ceramic case that the coveted movement is staged. The technical challenge that confronts this material is high because the fineness of the ceramic case is against a large proportion of sapphire crystal. The slim black case just supervises the movement of gold, marking a break between colors and shapes. The faceted hands overlap with lightness the CO113 caliber. The middle, opened above, below but also on its sides, still plays many effects of transparency and allows the movement to be admired from all parts, through its sapphire glasses. However, it comes rethought in a very feminine spirit, in a thin, slender and curved tonneau shape. Its horns were removed so that the hand-stitched crocodile bracelet perfectly integrates the case, setting itself in its continuity, in the style of a cuff watch. The crown located at 6 o’Clock emphasizes the refined character of this contemporary and elegant case.

At the time of the thirty-fifth anniversary of the famous Golden Bridge model, all credit is also to men, as a new model is entirely dedicated to them.  Always true to its avant-garde reputation, Corum chose the compromise between a traditional dial and a simple sapphire crystal. The new Golden Bridge model introduced in 2015 is indeed equipped with a metallic glass background. This treatment applied directly on the sapphire crystal allows a clever play of transparency – sometimes opaque on the wrist, sometimes translucent to light. The lines enshrined by the metallization movement make echo to the gold baguette. Devoid of any index, only faceted hands break this verticality. Following the example of all the details which make of this timepiece a masterpiece, the calibre CO113 is also visible from the back of the Cartier replica watches sale, through the sapphire crystal caseback.

Slim d’Hermès Pocket So H

Certain designs encapsulate the entire graphic culture of a House and the So H motif, created in 1971 for a Hermès tie, is definitely one of these. It now appears for the first time on the cover of a pocket replica watches uk: Slim d’Hermès Pocket So H. This exceptional model is issued in six-piece limited series for each of the four creations, respectively featuring a hawk’s eye dial with pink gold case; an ox-eye dial with gem-set rose gold case; an onyx dial with white gold case; and an aventurine dial with gem-set white gold case.

Giving life to this skilfully orchestrated interlacing pattern of “Hs” is a task that demands a particular blend of infinite patience and technical mastery. The finishing of the cover alone takes around 45 hours. The artisan begins with a previously openworked gold plate. A small graver is used to eliminate any rough patches on the surface of the Swiss replica watches cover and render it completely smooth, while devoting particular care to the interwoven “Hs”. Then comes the polishing. In a subtle rhythmic dance performed with pegs made from various types of wood ranging from the hardest to the softest, the artisan applies different pastes that will gradually rub down the gold and reveal its full brilliance.

The light, airy composition of the So H cover protects a hard stone dial of which tantalizing glimpses appear through its openings. Whether adorned with white diamonds or in a replica watches simply polished version, it distils a time that is infinitely Hermès, beating to the steady pace of the ultra-thin Manufacture Hermès H1950 calibre.

DeWitt Academia Mathematical

DeWitt unveils an extraordinary technical innovation, an automatic watch with a prestigious watchmaking tradition behind it – in the form of a mysterious replica watches uk that has no hands.

Entirely designed and hand-assembled within the Manufacture by our own master watchmakers, the Academia Mathematical watch, DeWitt’s 4th Concept Watch, is the fruit of months of research and development.

DeWitt’s mystery watch concept bears witness to the passionate interest in mathematics shown by its founder, Jérôme de Witt. Far removed from the conventions of traditional watchmaking, the numerals indicating the hours and minutes give the impression that they have been scattered, thrown into chaos so that in the end they can give the precise time. There are no hands, but rather totally autonomous jumping numerals that come to life by lighting up in the centre of the Swiss replica watches to indicate the passage of time.

It is thus that a grand watch complication, with its complex mechanisms and painstaking precision, places itself at the service of poetry.

Comprising 384 pieces, the Mathematical movement is based on the new DeWitt Manufacture automatic calibre, most of the components of which have been produced in-house, and all of which have been hand-assembled by our master Patek Philippe replica watchmakers.

It operates at a frequency of 21,600 vibrations per hour and features a screwed balance and a 48-hour power reserve. With its bridges decorated with both circular and bevelled Côtes de Genève patterns and its circular-grained mainplate, all the movement’s finishes are hand-crafted.

Fitted with a 42.5 mm round case in 18-carat rose gold, the Academia Mathematical watch is adorned, like all DeWitt cheap replica watches creations, with the brand’s emblematic imperial columns.

An entire watch concept rather than just a watch

Its aesthetic design and mechanical structure reflect DeWitt’s uniquely inventive approach to fake watchmaking, culminating in a myriad of fascinating calculations that drive relentlessly towards the nature of universal beauty.

Speake-Marin Bi-Tourbillon

Le Bi-Tourbillon de Speake-Marin (Vertical Double Tourbillon en anglais) dispose de deux tourbillons de 60 secondes liés par un embrayage à ressort pour plus de précision, d’un cadran en émail grand feu, d’un indicateur de réserve de marche et d’un indicateur de jour et de nuit. Les tourbillons ont été positionnés verticalement sur le côté gauche afin de faciliter la lecture de l’heure. En gardant les tourbillons discrètement sous la manche d’une chemise, il est tout de même possible de lire l’heure. Speake-Marin exprime ainsi l’excellence d’une sophistication discrète.

Le tourbillon joue un rôle important dans l’histoire de Speake-Marin. En effet, le premier garde-temps à avoir porté le nom de Speake-Marin était la « Foundation Panerai replica watches », une montre à gousset que Peter Speake-Marin avait équipé d’un tourbillon à échappement.

Peter Speake-Marin reconnait la capacité du tourbillon à améliorer la précision du garde- temps en contrant les erreurs de positionnement dues à la gravité, mais c’est l’aspect visuel de cet échappement hypnotique qui l’a conduit à ce projet.

« Le tourbillon est une des choses que j’aime le plus en horlogerie », dit-il. Pas pour la précision qu’il apporte au garde-temps, mais de part l’animation qu’il donne au cadran. Il indique comment le temps passe d’une façon unique que les répétitions-minutes ou une même les grandes sonneries ne parviennent pas à reproduire. C’est quelque chose qui, pour moi, possède une grande profondeur. »

Le cadran excentré retient tout d’abord notre attention. Réalisé en émail grand feu, il affiche les heures et les minutes grâce aux aiguilles « Foundation » en acier bleui signées Speake- Marin. Juste au-dessus de ce cadran se trouve un indicateur de réserve de marche de 72 heures. Il indique la réserve disponible au moyen d’un indicateur en forme de demi-lune qui s’ouvre lorsqu’il est complètement chargé pour dévoiler les rouages et le mécanisme et se referme progressivement quand la montre se décharge pour être remplacé par un indicateur rouge. Sous le cadran excentré se trouve l’indicateur de jour et de nuit qui apporte à la montre un équilibre visuel en contrebalançant l’indicateur de réserve de marche situé au-dessus.

Pourtant, ce sont les pirouettes synchronisés des tourbillons jumeaux alignés verticalement sur la gauche qui attirent rapidement le regard. Un unique pont massif, impeccablement fini à la main avec un polissage miroir et les angles biseautés, maintient le côté supérieur des deux tourbillons. Chaque tourbillon possède son propre mécanisme indépendant alimenté par son propre barillet. Les deux barillets sont chargés simultanément grâce à la couronne.

Une minuscule boite de vitesses à ressort permet de limiter les imprécisions, car ce ressort absorbe et équilibre toutes les petites variations entre les deux cages. Nommé un « équilibreur de marche », il lie les deux régulateurs des tourbillons.

Les généreuses proportions de cette boite Piccadilly de 48 mm, qui est disponible en or blanc ou rouge, ont été longuement étudiées afin d’accorder au garde-temps une grande lisibilité sur l’affichage du temps, tout en accordant aussi de l’espace aux tourbillons.

En retournant la pièce, l’observateur est récompensé par une magnifique vue mécanique. La partie inférieure des deux tourbillons est ouverte aux regards et une petite roue, sur laquelle est gravée « Equilibreur de Marche » prend le rythme des deux régulateurs indépendants et transmets la moyenne des deux rythmes pour afficher une heure précise.

Bi-Tourbillon (Vertical Double Tourbillon Movement)

L’inspiration pour le design du pont et la décoration du Bi-Tourbillon proviennent d’un des premiers tourbillons de Speake-Marin : le Tourbillon Vintage MKII. Comme ce dernier, le mouvement du bi-tourbillon est réalisé avec des ponts en acier, perlé et plaqué avec du ruthénium. La platine est décorée aux trois-quarts par des Côtes de Genève qui partent du centre mais s’en vont dans deux directions.

L’équilibreur de marche, qui relie les deux tourbillons de 60 secondes, consiste en deux roues concentriques mise en place l’une au-dessus de l’autre. Un petit ressort est positionné entre les deux roues et est attaché à l’extrémité de chacune d’elle. Chaque roue se met en rotation avec sa propre cage de tourbillon et le ressort au milieu est mis sous tension lors que les vitesses des deux régulateurs diffèrent ou est soumis à un choc asymétrique.

Le Bi-Tourbillon appartient à la collection J-Class de Speake-Marin et est produit en une Edition limitée de 5 pièces en or blanc et 5 pièces en or rouge.

Blancpain – Debuts The Ocean Commitment

On October 9, 2014 Blancpain President & CEO Marc A. Hayek, unveiled a special Ocean Commitment limited edition which will be part of a series of limited editions. Each purchaser will join the Ocean Commitment Circle and will contribute and reinforce Blancpain’s support for oceanic environmental causes through an additional donation which will be made for each  Swiss replica watches uk. First of this series, the new Ocean Commitment Bathyscaphe Chronographe Flyback is limited to 250 pieces. Blancpain commits to donate 1’000 Euros of the revenues from the sales of this piece to various initiatives.

The Bathyscaphe is a legendary name at Blancpain. Three years after the 1953 debut of the original Fifty Fathoms, Blancpain introduced the Bathyscaphe as a smaller diameter diving watch alternative adapted to daily wear. Over the years, the Bathyscaphe evolved in parallel with the Fifty Fathoms and became a part of the Fifty Fathoms legend. This patrimony is fully honored with the debut of the Ocean Commitment Bathyscaphe Chronographe Flyback, as it is a fully featured underwater chronograph, which at 43 mm in diameter is smaller than the core models of the Fifty Fathoms Collection.

Although it reflects 60 years of Blancpain Fifty Fathoms diving  fake watches online store tradition, the Ocean Commitment Bathyscaphe Chronographe flyback features Blancpain’s latest in-house movement, the F385. This entirely new column wheel controlled flyback chronograph movement runs at the high frequency of 5 HZ – 36’000vph, ideal for a chronograph, as each second is perfectly divided into 1/10th of a second intervals. The F385 is further distinguished by its use of silicon for the balance wheel spiral. Because silicon is a-magnetic, its use provides the same degree of protection from magnetism as constructions which rely upon a soft iron inner case. However, whereas soft iron inner cases foreclose use of a clear case back, as the movement would be hidden, the F385’s use of silicon allows both protection from magnetism and view of the movement. In common with all of the 33 new in-house calibers which Blancpain has introduced since 2006, the F385 has a freely sprung balance, with gold screws for fine regulation. Gold screw inertial regulation offers superior robustness and finer adjustment than the more common racket systems.

The F385 utilizes a vertical clutch for the engagement of the chronograph. Blancpain has been an industry pioneer in the development and refinement of vertical clutch chronographs. Unlike horizontal clutch systems used elsewhere, Blancpain’s vertical clutch guarantees flawless starting and operation of the chronograph. Horizontal clutch systems are prone to needle jumping upon starting and uneven movement of the chronograph seconds hand, both of which are avoided with Blancpain’s design.

Two other features of this new timepiece bring important functionality to the world of diving. Unlike most diving chronographs, which paradoxically forbid chronograph use underwater and require that the chronograph pushers be “locked down” when the Swiss fake watches store is submerged, the Bathyscaphe Chronographe Flyback has been equipped with sealed chronograph pushers allowing use of the chronograph during dives to a depth of 300 meters. Second, the chronograph itself incorporates a flyback function. Whereas standard chronographs require three actuations of the pushers to time back to back events (one push to stop the first event, a second to return to zero and a third to start the second event), the flyback function greatly simplifies operation. A single push of the return to zero pusher stops the first event, returns the timers to zero and restarts the timing for the second event. This is particularly useful for divers’ decompression stops.

Aesthetically, the Ocean Commitment Bathyscaphe Flyback is housed in a gray ceramic case, with a ceramic crown and ceramic chronograph pushers and a unidirectional blue ceramic rotating bezel marked with liquid metal indexes. The blue color theme is carried over to the dial, which offers three subdials for the chronograph counters and small seconds display. On the back of the watch, the movement and winding rotor are visible through the clear case back. The winding rotor has been specially decorated for this limited series bearing the logo for the Ocean Commitment.

Each Ocean Commitment Bathyscaphe Chronograph Flyback will be individually numbered. In addition, each purchaser of one of these limited edition timepieces will receive a copy of Blancpain’s collectible volume entitled Fifty Fathoms The Dive and Watch History 1953-2013. The copy received by each purchaser will be hand numbered to correspond to the serial number of his Cartier replica watches uk.

Every client will automatically be enrolled in the Ocean Commitment Circle and receive a certificate confirming that a donation has been made for that replica watches uk. Thanks to their purchase, they become an active player in reinforcing Blancpain’s support of oceanic initiatives. Special advantages will be granted to the members of the Circle, such as close relationships with Blancpain partners, opportunities to meet them, exclusive information and news through the members area of Blancpain’s new Ocean Commitment website, private invitations to scientific expedition report presentations as well as documentary film premieres.
