Look, Ma, No Hands: 5 Watches That Tell Time Differently

The vast majority of replica watches uk store stick to traditional hour and minute hands to display the time, but a handful of bold manufacturers use their technical prowess to find new, innovative, and often downright audacious methods to indicate the hours, minutes, and occasionally even other functions. Below is a list of unusual watches that deviate from the conventional time-telling style, finding creative alternatives to hour and minute hands.

Introduced at Baselworld 2013, the HM3 Megawind by MB&F features a movement designed by Jean-Marc Wiederrecht that features an oversized “battleaxe” rotor. As with other MB&F “horological machines,” the hour and minute are indicated by revolving cones, machined from solid blocks of aluminum to paper thinness, housed inside larger cones made from brazed gold and sapphire.

HYT’s H1 does away with the hour hand, instead indicating the hour by means of a green liquid that flows through a tube along the edge of the dial. This unconventional cheap replica watches uk is famous for being powered by a system of bellows used to pump the liquid forward. Click here for our detailed analysis of how the HYT H1 works.

A year after it introduced the H1, HYT brought out the H2 model (titanium/white gold version below), which added three additional functions: a power-reserve indicator, a temperature indicator and an “H-N-R” indicator. The latter is connected to the crown and tells the wearer which position the crown is in — H for setting the time, N for neutral, and R for winding (remonter in French).

Christophe Claret’s X-TREM-1 features a tourbillon and uses magnetic fields to create the illusion of hour and minute indicators floating through the air. Two small steel spheres – hollowed to make them lighter – are encased within two sapphire tubes placed to the right and left of the caseband and controlled by precision magnetic fields generated by two miniature magnets moved by cables. The position of each sphere indicates the hour and minute.

One of the most unconventional timepieces in the always-innovative Harry Winston Opus collection is the Harry Winston Opus XI, with its futuristic, moving dial. Every hour, on the hour, in the span of 2 or 3 seconds, the numerical hour display – a system comprised of a multitude of wheels, pinions, arbors, bearings and tiles – disintegrates into utter chaos and then returns to order for the remainder of the hour.

Vacheron Constantin and the European Artistic Crafts Days share common values

The Geneva Maison is the world’s oldest Swiss replica watches Manufacture in the world, faithfully perpetuating a proud heritage imbued with excellence and passion across almost 260 years of uninterrupted history. For Vacheron Constantin, the promotion of Artistic Crafts is more than a commitment; it is a duty.

This is a perspective consisting of nine works inspired by heritage pieces of the museum and produced by collectives of artists and craftsmen. In Milan, in partnership with the Fondazione Cologni dei Mestieri d’Arte, Vacheron Constantin is presenting the “Intrecci” exhibition at the Bagatti Valsecchi Museum, revisiting the art of traditional weaving.

The European Artistic Crafts Days in Western Switzerland: some 60 trades represented across three cantons

Baselworld 2015 Preview: Hublot Brings Out New Big Bang Ferrari Models

Hublot has announced two new Swiss replica watches that will premiere at Baselworld 2015. The new Big Bang Ferrari comes in two different color combinations. Both versions have Ferrari characteristics that Hublot had not previously used, but are still distinctly Hublot in design.

These new Big Bang Ferrari models join the growing family of replica watches uk for sale made in the three-year-old partnership between Hublot and Ferrari. That partnership had its highlight so far in 2013, when Hublot introduced the MP-05 LaFerrari, a mechanical watch with a 50-day power reserve.

The new Montblanc replica watches are named for their coloring: the Big Bang Ferrari Black Ceramic and the Big Bang Ferrari Grey Ceramic. They have 45-mm cases made fully in ceramic. Push-pieces for the chronograph, situated at 2 and 4 o’clock, are made of titanium and either satin finished (on the gray model) or PVD treated (on the black). The reset pusher beneath the crown is topped in titanium with the Ferrari name in red lacquer running across it.

The loudest feature on the new Big Bang Ferrari is its strap. Made of black rubber and leather by Schedoni of Modena, Italy, each strap has a racing stripe running down its center. The Black Ceramic has a blue-and-white stripe to contrast the red, and the Grey Ceramic has black-and-white to play off the gray with somewhat greater subtlety. (Hublot says that the colors are meant to evoke Ferrari’s classic red and the gray of the North American Racing Team.) The straps have a titanium deployant buckle, engraved with the Hublot name.

The dial is where we find all the Ferrari touchstones. The car brand’s logo, the prancing horse, appears at 9 o’clock. Across from it is the chronograph minutes counter window at 3, with a yellow-backed date aperture inside of it. (Through the openworked dial you can see the skeletonized date numerals in a rotating ring.) But the most prominent and novel feature of this Ferrari dial is the latticework that functions as a dial. This mesh echoes the grilles on Ferrari cars; it also lets you look through to the movement. Above the grille, the hands and indexes have Super-LumiNova coating and are either rhodium plated or coated in black for the gray and black models, respectively.

The new Ferrari pieces use the HUB 1241 Unico movement. This automatic caliber is a flyback chronograph with a power reserve of 72 hours. The movement can also be seen through the ceramic caseback, which includes a sapphire window.

Pricing for the new Big Bang Ferrari is not yet available, but each of the best luxury replica watches uk will be produced in a limited edition of 250 pieces. Gentlemen, start your engines.

A. Lange & Söhne 1815 “200th Anniversary of F.A. Lange”

February 18, 2015 marked what would have been the 200th birthday of Ferdinand Adolph Lange, one of the founding fathers of Saxon watchmaking and namesake of the modern A. Lange & Söhne Swiss replica watches sale brand, founded by his great-grandson. To commemorate this milestone, the brand has released a limited-edition timepiece, the A. Lange & Söhne 1815 “200th Anniversary F.A. Lange.”

A. Lange & Söhne’s 1815 collection, which derives its name from the year of F.A. Lange’s birth, provides the appropriate platform for the new replica watches, which is limited to (again, appropriately) 200 pieces worldwide, all sold through A. Lange & Söhne boutiques. And the fact that the company chose the 1815 model’s clean, elegant design — just an hours and minutes display, along with small seconds on a subdial at 6 o’clock, a layout reminiscent of those on Lange’s historic pocketwatches — pays tribute to the simplicity of the founder’s earliest horological achievements, before he attained international renown with chronographs, remontoirs, jumping-seconds models and repeaters.

The A. Lange & Sohne 1815 “200th Anniversary F.A. Lange” comes in a 40-mm-diameter platinum case and a black dial made of solid silver. The hands are in rhodiumed gold, and the cheap replica watches uk has a sapphire crystal in the front and back. Whereas the front crystal showcases the dial’s classical simplicity, the view through the caseback offers a glimpse into the complex artistry of traditional Saxon watchmaking, as pioneered by Ferninand Adolph Lange.

The watch’s manufacture movement, manual-wind Caliber L051.1, bears all the hallmarks of the classical Glashütte horological style, including the three-quarter plate made of untreated German silver, a hand-engraved balance cock, classical screw balance, whiplash spring, gold chatons to secure the bearing jewels, and thermally blued screws. The three-quarter plate, in particular, is a living symbol of F.A. Lange’s contributions to German Swiss fake watchmaking, invented in its current form in 1864 for the purpose of better stabilizing the overall movement.

The A. Lange & Sohne 1815 “200th Anniversary F.A. Lange” is delivered on a had-stitched black alligator leather strap with a platinum pronged buckle. Each watch bears an engraved series number (001 through 200) on the caseback. It will be priced at $33,500. Scroll down for more specs on the best replica watches uk.
