NEW BREITLING ENDURANCE PRO 44 AND 38 WATCHES FOR 2024

zelin0802

Breitling has released some exciting timepieces so far this year. Some of the brand’s 2024 releases include the historically inspired B70 Orbiter watch, the Navitimer 41 in new dial colors, a titanium Chronomat design, the Red Arrow 60th Anniversary Special Edition, a unique Triumph v Breitling Chronomat B01 model, and some beautiful rainbow-colored Superocean dive watches. Joining these pieces are a range of new colors for the Breitling Endurance Pro watches, now available in an additional size of 38mm for those with smaller wrists or female collectors. Perfect for those who lead an active lifestyle and those who need a watch that looks sporty and bold, these new models benefit from the brand’s Breitlight case material, giving it that all-important tool watch look.

Endurance Pro Stronger Than Steel

Breitling is a Swiss luxury watch manufacturer that never rests on its laurels. It is one of the few companies in the world where all of its movements are chronometer-certified. But that’s not all. Back in 2009, Breitling made the foray into in-house movement manufacturing. If the brand hadn’t already earned enough respect for its bold aviation watches and chronographs, making its own movements certainly changed everything. Another triumph worth mentioning is the company’s patented case material, Breitlight. We still know very little about this material, but it’s no surprise that the brand wanted to keep this revolutionary material a secret. Breitlight is tougher and stronger than stainless steel and lighter than titanium.

In sports watches, many companies use stainless steel and titanium as case materials. Titanium is known for its lightness and comfort, and steel for its toughness. But Breitlight goes beyond these qualities. It’s hypoallergenic, non-magnetic, thermally stable, and impressively scratch-resistant. These qualities are all similar to carbon, although we may never know the true composition of this innovative Breitlight material. It runs throughout the entire Endurance Pro collection – a series of light, rugged, sporty and lively sports watches for those with an active lifestyle.

The look of the Breitling Endurance Pro watches has always been slightly different from the other watches in the Breitling Professional collection. For example, the Aerospace and SOS watches. Even so, all watches in the collection share the same sporty prowess and masculinity. The Endurance Pro watches are surprisingly rugged, and their lightweight construction makes them an extremely comfortable companion on the wrist. You can wear the Endurance Pro watch to take a dip in the sea, to a workout in the gym, or with casual sportswear. This approachable sports watch is suitable for any active person looking for a watch that stands out.

The New Breitling Endurance Pro 44 and 38 Watches

So, the first notable change to mention is the introduction of the smaller 38mm size. This is a comfortable size for anyone with a wrist circumference of around 6-7 inches. The Breitlight case is more than just a practical choice for a watch. In addition to its lightweight and rugged qualities, it also has a textured surface that creates a masculine and technical feel. In addition to the new 38mm model, there is also a more familiar 44mm case – a bold and daring size for larger wrists.

The main features of the new 2024 Breitling Endurance Pro watches are the clearly legible chronograph dial with clear luminous markings, the iconic B-wing anchor design under the 12 o’clock mark at the top of the dial, and the practical pulsometer scale on the outer edge of the display. The new watches also feature an innovative compass bezel, a rubber crown (for easy grip under wet skin), a closed sealed case back, and a new rubber strap to ensure durability and longevity for a variety of sports.

Case

As mentioned above, the new 44mm and 38mm Endurance Pro watches feature a black Breitlight case and a screw-down crown to prevent water from entering the case. The rubber crown, which is matched in color to the respective model, is a standout feature that adds a more sporty touch to the design. The 44mm model comes in dark blue, orange, white, blue and red for the rubber strap and crown, while the 38mm model comes in dark purple, pink, white, blue and red, the latter three of which will appeal to a male audience. best luxury replica watches

Each of the new models is water-resistant to 100 meters and features a sapphire crystal on the front to protect the dial from damage, scratches, moisture, heat and debris. The compass scale on the bezel is bidirectional and designed for easy grip. To use this feature, simply align the hour hand with the direction of the sun. From there, find the midpoint between the 12 o’clock position and the hour hand, and that’s your north position. The case also features a closed caseback to protect the COSC-certified SuperQuartz movement inside.

Dial

The dials of the new Endurance Pro watches have all returned to their stealthy black color. These features are equipped with a large amount of Super-LumiNova to ensure optimal readability when the wearer is checking the time under stress or in dark environments. The dial features a 30-minute counter at 10 o’clock and a 12-hour totalizer at 2 o’clock. These counters are balanced by a small seconds function at 6 o’clock. The dial also features a date window and a set of oversized Arabic numerals at 4:30. The pulsometer on the edge of the display is another feature that comes in handy for sports-related tasks. Simply count 30 or 60 heartbeats and read the seconds hand to determine your heart rate per minute.

Strap

Breitling’s new Endurance Pro watch features a newly designed rubber strap that adds a vibrant touch to the watch. With a fresh, sporty style perfect for summer, the strap comes with a black buckle that matches the rest of the case.

Greubel Forsey Grande Sonnerie – Haute Horlogerie and the best innovations

zelin0802

The Grande and Petite Sonnerie have a special place in the world of Haute Horlogerie. Only a handful of watchmakers are able to manufacture (and present in their catalogs) such works of art, often regarded as the pinnacle of complex watchmaking. Robert Greubel and Stephen Forsey had been thinking about this major move for years, beginning an 11-year research and development effort that culminated in their own interpretation of the complication, which A “self-contained” creation is undoubtedly one of the highlights of SIHH 2017.

The Grande Sonnerie is one of the most complex watch mechanisms (for more on chiming watches, read our Technical Viewpoint). Both the grande sonnerie and the petite sonnerie strike the time and quarters at the same time, but only the grande sonnerie repeats the time every quarter of an hour. Not surprisingly, Greubel Forsey’s interpretation of this complication – the dynamic duo’s first striking watch – is unlike any other in the history of horology: it is a A masterpiece, with a super-complex movement composed of 855 parts (with several noteworthy innovations), first-class craftsmanship, excellent acoustics and unparalleled Greubel Forsey style.

The GreubelFors Grande Sonnerie is equipped with mode selectors GS (Grand Sonnerie), PS (Small Sonnerie) and SL (Silent), all operated by a pusher at 4 o’clock. It is also a minute repeater, able to tell the time by pressing a button in the crown. In such mechanisms, the management of functionality and power is crucial so that all parts can interact simultaneously and tell the time perfectly, while managing energy consumption. The movement is powered by two energy sources: the first energy source is used for the chronograph part of the movement, with two coaxial series quick-rotating barrels (one of which has a sliding spring – 72 hours power reserve).

Although the Review fashion watch is water resistant to 30m, the sound quality of the chime is excellent, loud and pure. The case is made of titanium, which has good resonance properties. The hammer strikes the steel gong of the cathedral. The silent governor eliminates any unsightly background noise. The chimes are optimized without pauses, eliminating the usually perceptible tiny silence between the chimes of the hours and minutes.

Another notable and useful feat is the addition of 11 safety features. For example, when the timekeeping is in progress, the time setting is disconnected, and the timekeeping cannot be sounded during the time setting. In fact, striking watches need to be handled with care, as improper handling can damage the movement… and repairing such a mechanism is a long and complicated process (the assembly of the movement takes months)!

To enhance the timekeeping performance of the watch, Greubel Forsey added a 24-second tilting tourbillon to its impressive Grande Sonnerie. Of course, it’s up to the standard you’d expect from a brand: 86 perfectly handcrafted parts, weighing just 0.37 grams in total, light alloy cage struts, titanium cage bridges, gold counterweights, variable inertia pendulum with gold screws Wheel, hairspring with Philips terminal curve and Geneva-style studs…running at 21,600 vibrations/hour, inclined at 25° angle, and making one revolution every 24 seconds.

In traditional luxury Greubel Forsey style, the multi-layered black dial shows the hours and minutes by the brand’s skeletonized gold hands with arrow-shaped luminous tips. All applied indicators/markers are gold. Around the dial, small seconds at 6.30, chronograph power reserve at 5, chiming power reserve at 2 and chime mode selector at 3. The hollow position allows easy observation of the hammer and gong.

Despite its mechanical complexity, the watch is enduring because Greubel Forsey housed all 855 parts of the movement in its signature asymmetrical case measuring 43.5 mm in diameter and 16.13 mm high (relatively compact) middle. Crafted in titanium, it features a hand-finished case and a side window that reveals the tourbillon and steel cathedral gongs.

As always, the movement finishing is top notch. Bridge in nickel silver, brushed with embossed inscriptions, micro-rotor in black finish (also with embossed inscriptions), black-polished hammers, olive dome jewel set in gold-tone rhinestones.

The Greubel Forsey Grande Sonnerie is fitted with a black hand-stitched alligator strap secured by a titanium folding clasp. wholesale watches replica

Tudor watch original movement MT5400

zelin0802

Biwan 54 is equipped with the original Tudor watch movement MT5400, which has the display function of hours, minutes and seconds. The movement adopts the classic finish of the original Tudor watch movement. The one-piece hollowed-out tungsten automatic rotor is frosted, with sandblasted details, and the splint and main splint are interlaced with polished and sandblasted surfaces, embellished with laser decoration.

The inertia fine-tuning balance wheel is fixed on both sides by a strong horizontal splint to ensure stability and precision, and is equipped with a non-magnetic silicon hairspring. After the watch is assembled, it is tested that the travel time error of the original Tudor watch movement MT5400 is only within 6 seconds (-2+4).

Another notable feature of the original Tudor caliber MT5400 is its power reserve of up to 70 hours, allowing the wearer to have “no worries on weekends”. In other words, if you take off your watch on Friday night, you only need to put it on your wrist to use it normally on Monday morning, without needing to rewind and adjust. Give it “working time” and return “rest time” to yourself. high quality watches replica

Steel or rubber strap

The Biwan 54 watch is equipped with a frosted three-link steel strap with a Tudor “T-fit” quick-adjust buckle. This device is equipped with five holes, and the wearer can make quick and fine adjustments without using tools. The adjustment length of 8mm can be realized on the buckle, which is very convenient and practical. The buckle adopts ceramic ball bearings, which can be operated flexibly and smoothly, ensuring that the buckle can be fastened smoothly and safely.

The Black Bay 54 watch is also available with a black rubber strap, available in three sizes, all equipped with a Tudor “T-fit” buckle. The strap can be precisely cut according to the width of the wearer’s wrist to ensure a good wearing experience. The inner side of the strap is decorated with the iconic snowflake pattern, which is specially designed for the Black Bay 54 watch and can also effectively improve the grip.

The essence of Biwan type

Inspired by the classic aesthetic style of Tudor diving watches in the 1950s, the Biwan series incorporates the angular hands known to collectors as “snowflakes” in the dial design. A watch with this characteristic pointer appeared in the brand’s 1969 catalogue. The unprotected winding crown and unique case features are even more reminiscent of the first generation of Tudor diving cheap replica watches.

The Biwan series cleverly combines the brand’s traditional aesthetics with contemporary watchmaking craftsmanship. It is not simply a replica of classics, but condenses the essence of Tudor’s diving watch production for more than 60 years, and at the same time takes root in the present and reflects the trend of the times. Although its design concept embodies a kind of neo-vintageism, it follows the stricter requirements of modern watchmaking in terms of craftsmanship, reliable performance, solid quality and detailed finishing.

Tudor Watchmaking Center

Every Tudor watch, including the Biwan 54, strictly follows the brand’s excellence standards and is assembled and fully tested at Tudor’s new watchmaking center in Le Locle, Switzerland. After three years of construction, the watchmaking center will be officially completed and put into use in 2021, bringing together cutting-edge watchmaking skills, efficient production management and automatic testing systems. Its exterior is shown in eye-catching ‘Tudor Red’, covering four floors with a total area of 5,500 square meters, which complements the adjacent Kenissi watchmaking center. Founded in 2016, the Koenigs Watchmaking Center is dedicated to the production of Tudor watch movements. Based on the Koenigs Watchmaking Center and other self-operated organizations of the brand, Tudor has successfully integrated the R&D and production capabilities of high-performance mechanical movements. So far, Tudor has been able to fully control the production of core components and ensure stable quality.

This warranty does not require registration of the watch, does not require periodic inspections, and is transferable.

The RM 47 Tourbillon watch, armouring the watch

zelin0802

Art and spirituality merge into one. As an aesthetic masterpiece that pays tribute to Japanese culture, the RM 47 Tourbillon watch is amazingly presented after nearly four years of careful consideration and careful design. This ingenious, artistic watch is equipped with a movement that is compact and compact and designed to make room for samurai armor.

• Originating from the spirit and values ​​of Bushido
• 16 hours of craftsmanship and 9 hours of careful drawing to achieve 3N gold samurai armor carving

The birth of this watch was inspired by a heartfelt conversation between Mr. Richard Mille and his close friend, Fernando Alonso. Alonso is a two-time Formula 1 world champion and a fan of traditional Japanese art and samurai spirit.

This new replica watch breaks through the boundaries of creativity and occupies a place in Richard Mille’s watch series known for its “decorative” and “ornamental value”. The samurai armor was hand-carved by sculptor Pierre-Alain Lozeron and painted by his wife Valérie Lozeron. The samurai armor carving shows the various styles of Japanese culture passed down from generation to generation, and the moral code conveyed by the samurai spirit is still prevalent in Japanese society today. Armor in 3N gold comes to life, reminiscent of the gold leaf elements used to decorate the most sacred temples and some traditional crafts in ancient Japan.

Many of the details in the watch refer to the family crest of the Asano family, a symbol of the Japanese Bushido spirit. At the beginning of the 18th century, Asano Naganori, who was also the lord of the “Daimyo” of the family domain, was also a lord followed by the forty-seven ronin. After avenging the death of the lord, these ronin resolutely followed the lord and died. In Japan, each samurai family has its own family crest. The tourbillon decorated with the Asano family crest is located at the 6 o’clock position of the watch. This family crest composed of two intersecting eagle feathers symbolizes the strength of the battle and the authority of the lord, and is also finely engraved on the winglet of the samurai helmet. The crown is made of titanium, Carbon TPT® and polished 3N gold, and features a Japanese maple leaf pattern. The maple leaf symbolizes the change of seasons, beauty, grace and the shortness of life. At the bottom, two knives are engraved in their sheaths, with the blades pointing upwards for quick extraction in the face of danger. 2022 replica watches

As a dual artistic fusion of sculpture and carving, the production of samurai armor requires patience, meticulousness, dexterity and enthusiasm. “There are so many similarities between the knife and the chisel, between the sharp edge and the precise positioning of the incision of the engraver’s skill, one cannot help but think of the resonance of Bushido and the ingenuity of the craftsman,” says Pierre-Alain Lozeron. After more than 16 hours of precision engraving and 9 hours of painting – it took more than a full day to create the 11 parts of the “Samurai”, which are seamlessly embedded around the RM 47 Tourbillon movement.

The samurai armor is like a guardian, providing loyal protection to the RM47 hand-wound calibre with hours and minutes display. The base plate and the hollow bridge are made of black PVD-treated grade 5 titanium alloy, an alloy commonly used in the aerospace industry, with high biocompatibility, corrosion resistance, hardness and surface flatness. This ensures that the movement runs smoothly.

The movement, case and decoration of the RM 47 watch reflect the harmonious fusion of elements. The tonneau case consists of three parts, including a 3N gold middle case, a black TZP ceramic bezel and a case back. With its outstanding aesthetic expression, the RM 47 Tourbillon evokes the spirit and connotation of Bushido, symbolizing a persistent pursuit of excellence and a respect for tradition.

New: Patek Philippe Calatrava Ref. 5226G

zelin0802

Patek Philippe copy has launched the new Ref in its iconic Calatrava collection. Made of 5226G white gold, new textured dial and case sides with guilloché de Paris studs.

A new Calatrava is usually a warm welcome to the collection. Last year, Patek Philippe launched the Ref. 6119 with surprising success, as it brought the Clou de Paris bezel back to the collection. This year, the new Calatrava comes in white gold, but features a self-winding Calibre 26-330 SC with sweep seconds, date and hack seconds.

The main difference from the Calibre 30-255PS used in Ref. 6119 is that this movement has a date mechanism and the seconds hand is a centrally mounted sweep hand instead of an auxiliary seconds hand in the sub-dial at 6 o’clock.

Patek Philippe Calibre 26-330 SC.
But the sport is not entirely new. The dial is now a textured dial, made on a printing press, with a gradient from charcoal grey to black around the edges. The hands are less classic, but probably a more modern syringe shape with a luminous coating, while the hands of the Ref.6119 are very classic Dauphine shapes without luminous.

Patek Philippe, textured dial of PP-5226G.
And, of course, the studded Paris motif engraved on the side of the case. This new design treats the lugs as extensions and integrates with the case backsplash. The case is a “just right” 40mm, slightly higher than the 39mm of the Ref.6119.

Patek Philippe, PP-5226G, showing the Paris studs on the side of the case.
These two features also apply to the new Ref. 5326G calendar time, we regard these two watches as siblings. Of course, the 5326 is very useful in combining the annual calendar with Patek Philippe’s excellent two-time-zone implementation, while the 5226 is time-only, with a date. As we said in our review of the 5320, the look is determined to be more modern (albeit inspired by vintage cameras) and likely aimed at a younger demographic than traditional Patek Philippe customers. Although, in fact, the design may be timeless and appreciated by children of all ages.

Calatrava new in contemporary retro style with guilloche de Paris decoration

Patek Philippe is unique not only in its creative and technical mastery of movements, but also in its creativity in cases and dials. The latest addition to the Calatrava collection, the new white gold Reference 5226G-001, perfectly exemplifies the pursuit of excellence in all areas of watchmaking.

Based on the round, streamlined case shape that has made Calatrava models famous since 1932, Patek Philippe has reworked its flanks with guilloche de Paris (nail pattern) on both sides – a The pattern symbolizes the year 2021 in the 2021 Calatrava Clous de Paris Reference 6119. To allow this guilloche pattern to run all the way around the strap, the designers also created a special case structure in which the lugs form an integral part of the case back.

The charcoal grey vintage-style dial features black gradient edges. Its slightly grainy texture is reminiscent of vintage camera bags. The dial features white gold applied numerals with a beige luminous coating, as well as a low-profile “railway” scale for the seconds hand. Hours and minutes are indicated by syringe-shaped white gold hands with beige luminous coating. The date display is displayed through an aperture at 3 o’clock, printed in beige on a black background.

This new model is powered by the self-winding 26-330 SC calibre with stop-seconds function.

The new Reference 5226G-001 comes with two interchangeable straps – one in beige calfskin with a nubuck finish and the other in black calfskin with an embossed fabric pattern and beige stitching – both made of White gold claw clasp secures.

The same case, dial and strap design is also present on the new Reference 5326G-001 with annual calendar and travel time functions.

Watches & Wonders 2022 First look and reactions to Rolex, Tudor, Patek Philippe and more!

zelin0802

Watches & Wonders Geneva is in full swing right now, which means many of the world’s top luxury watch brands have just released new models for 2022. With 38 brands exhibiting, this also happens to be the first year that Watches & Wonders Geneva can exist as a live event. This is arguably the most exciting time of the year for collectors and aficionados, so here is your official review and overview of the most important new releases from Watches & Wonders Geneva 2022.

The biggest news for Rolex this year is the new stainless steel GMT-Master II 126720VTNR, which has a green and black bezel and a left-handed crown. However, the new Rolex Air-King 126900 also received a lot of attention, as it marked the first time the crown guard appeared on a model in the Air-King line. Other new additions to the Rolex sports watch collection include a yellow gold version of the Yacht-Master 42, a new stone dial option for the white gold model, and a slightly modified Deepsea version.

A classic part of the Rolex catalog is the new platinum Day-Date model with a fluted bezel (a first for a platinum presidential watch), as well as many new dial options for the 36mm and 40mm models. In addition, the Datejust series introduces a range of new dials, including an expansion of the fluted and palm-patterned dials introduced last year, and a new diamond-set dial for the 31mm model with a floral pattern on the face.

While the new Tudor Black Bay GMT S&G mimics the Rolex “Root Beer” GMT-Master II, arguably Tudor’s most talked-about new watch is the all-new Black Bay Pro.

The Tudor Black Bay Pro is essentially a version of the brand’s vintage Rolex Explorer II ref. 1655. The watch itself is powered by the same movement as Black Bay GMT, but it features a 39mm stainless steel case with a fixed steel bezel. Unlike the vintage Rolex models that served as its aesthetic inspiration, the new Black Bay Pro is a proper dual-hour GMT watch, and even features an independently adjustable local hour hand, just like its Black Bay GMT sibling.

When it comes to its annual releases, Panerai usually tends to focus on one of its collections each year, and the one that gets the most new releases at Geneva Watches & Wonders is Submersible. The new Panerai Submersible QuarantaQuattro model features a 44mm case made from traditional stainless steel, the brand’s recycled eSteel or its proprietary carbon-based Carbotech material.

The new 44mm Submersible model sits between the current 42mm and 47mm watches, expanding the number of options and reinforcing Panerai’s commitment to sustainable materials. Panerai’s eSteel material has the same properties as conventional stainless steel, including the same chemical behavior, physical structure and corrosion resistance. However, because the alloy is mainly composed of recycled materials, it is more sustainable than conventional steel and allows Panerai to reduce its environmental impact. https://www.moon-watch.co
