We covered the announcement of the Vacheron Constantin Harmony series when it was announced during SIHH 2015. The collection is making its way around the world, to showcase the 7 special timepieces designated the Harmony Collection to celebrate the brand’s 260th Anniversary. We will cover the individual watches in some detail, but today, we focus our sights on a review of the art of finishing as exemplified by the Harmony Collection.rado watches replica
As can be seen in the example of the Dual Time shown above, the case is designed on a new shape for Vacheron Constantin: a slim cushion like shape, which exudes an elegance in a certain air of sprezzatura that can only be achieved by hours on the drawing board to refine and re-refine the lines. The result is magic: beautiful, elegant, and supremely beautiful.
Vacheron Constantin has shown time and time again their flair for dial works…from complicated techniques requiring grand feu, to the simpler dials, the choice of fonts, of colours, of wordings or lack of shows a deep sense of character in the designer.
The dial of the entire Vacheron Constantin Harmony collection is a silvered opaline which exudes pure class and elegance. The choice of the red for the painted pulsimeter scale on the VC Ultra Thin Grand Complication Chronograph shown above contrasts beautifully with the blue for the painted Arabic numerals against a pure white opaline background accented by the black markings on the subdial. The blued steel chronograph split hands are beautifully shaped and sets itself apart from the traditionally shaped hands.best replica tourbillon watches
We have almost always been impressed with Vacheron Constantin’s movement finishing. Almost without exception, the movements are beautifully designed and magnificently finished.
The teeth of the peripheral rotor is visible on the right side of the photograph below. As the rotor is part of a cylinder, it runs around the movement, affording a full view of the movement. Also visible are the cogs which engage with the winding mechanism, visible at the lower right corner. And at the top and bottom left corners, the gold, engraved rotor is just visible.
Note the high gloss finish if the movement, and the complexity of the split seconds chronograph movement. The base movement is in-house developed based on taken from historical cues from the Lemania 2310 ebauche. This is evident from the shape of the bridges, but the similarity ends there. The VC Caliber 3500 sports a peripheral winding rotor, when the Lemania is a hand wound movement. Also the split seconds chronograph works, is of course also completely in-house.

The chronograph is often mistaken by novice collectors as a simple complication, as indeed it can be found in inexpensive watches. But the craft required to construct and build a traditional column wheel chronograph to look beautiful and at the same time be accurate and robust is a high one. Some masters proclaim that it is indeed more difficult to make a chronograph, especially a rattrapante or split seconds than a tourbillon. jacob and co replica VC hints at this, by making the most expensive piece in the Harmony 260th Anniversary Collection to feature a split seconds chronograph, sans tourbillon. While the tourbillon equipped chronograph (no split seconds) is the second most expensive in their lineup.tudor black bay replica
VC improved on the base ebauche by redesigning the lateral coupling clutch. The clutch helps reduce the potential jumping of the chronograph hand when it starts running. As can be seen in the macro photograph above, the chronograph is in engaged stage, a jewelled lever is used to push the transmission wheel carrying power from the movement train’s fourth wheel to the chronograph wheel. Note the tiny teeth of the chronograph wheel engaging with the larger teeth of the transmission wheel. When disengaged, the transmission wheel (with the larger teeth) in the middle moves away from the chronograph wheel, with the tension guided and kept constant by the jewelled lever. iwc pilot chronograph replica
These actions are coordinated by the column wheel. As a design bonus, both column wheel caps are decorated with the VC Maltese Cross. jaeger lecoultre master control replica
Note the high level of finishing on each of the plates and chronograph works. Chronograph works are made of steel, harder and more difficult to finish than the brass used in the movement plates. Note that all edges, even on the steel chronograph levers are polished, and anglaged. Another worthy example is the shape of these levers, which feature many inward and outward angles which can only be executed by hand. Of course all the openings for the screws are chamfered and polished. Also of note is that all the jewels on the chronograph works are attached with chatons onto chamfered openings.
Aesthetically faultless, the design of the VC tourbillon cage is in the shape of their iconic Maltese cross logo. Execution is equally faultless. Note the tourbillon bridge, which cut from a single piece of steel, with its arms rounded into a gradually conical shape, and polished to a mirror finish. Note also the tourbillon carriage itself is polished to a black specular finish. The sharp inward angles on the cage is also quite spectacular.cheapest richard mille
The Harmony series of watches feature special engravings on the balance cock, and the winding rotors. These engravings are executed by master engravers, who not only display great skill in their works but also restraint in not over filling the surfaces with engraving. This keeps the filigree to an aesthetically pleasing level. vacheron constantin tourbillon replica
These are just some examples of the art of finishing as shown by Vacheron Constantin’s Harmony Series. All VC watches exhibit high levels of finishing, though in this article we only explored the art of finishing by using examples from the Harmony Series, with the exception of special features for the 260th Anniversary watches, the same techniques and levels of finishing are also applicable to all VC offerings. The Grande Dame is truly a doyen of high craft.


A large, skeletonzied flying tourbillon in a proprietary metal. If I stopped my description there, you’d probably say something like “Yeah, sure, that’s what Replica Roger Dubuis Excalibur Diabolus in Machina does. Those are the types of watches that have characterized the brand over the last few years.” And you’d be right. But I’m not stopping there. The Excalibur Diabolus In Machina takes that brand-defining formula and adds a minute repeater to the mix. I have your attention now, don’t I?

https://www.highluxurystore.co

The Diabolus In Machina starts with a 45mm x 16.8mm case made from a patented material called CarTech Micro-Melt BioDur CCMTM. It’s a metal that starts as a powder and is then sintered into solid form. Its biggest advantages over stainless steel are that it’s more wear resistant and that it will stay shiny even when scratched and scuffed. Roger Dubuis is the only watchmaker that has it. Here they’ve chosen it as the base for a watch that riffs on their usual design language in a few interesting ways. Typically, Replica Zenith El Primero Chronomaster RD’s tourbillons are all about open space. They’re highly skeletonized, with more air than metal or carbon between the two crystals. This watch, on the other hand, is all about density. You’ve got similar criss-crossed bridges, but they obscure one another and emphasize the movement underneath, instead of opening things up. replica piaget watch But the real centerpiece here is the minute repeater, which has been finely tuned (pardon the pun) for this specific watch. First off, there is a transparent disc with the words hours, quarters, and minutes on it that spins as the repeater chimes out those various intervals, giving you a visual reminder of what you’re hearing. It sits just behind the Roman numeral at 11 o’clock, so you have to look closely to spot it. The repeater also plays off the watch’s name, with the gongs tuned to C and G flat, otherwise known as the tritone, or, as Roger Dubuis notes, the “Diabolus in Musica” in medieval times. It presumably gives the repeater a slightly ominous sound, and I’d be really interested to hear it in person.

The watch also has a nice safety feature in the form of a function indicator right next to the crown. This tells you whether the watch is in winding mode or setting mode so that you don’t accidentally change the time while the repeater is activated (which could cause major damage). There’s also a mechanism in the repeater-activating push-button at 10 o’clock that prevents it from being partially triggered. It’s all or nothing here, saving you from another possible headache.
If you’re a regular Replica watch reader, replica jaeger lecoultre master I probably don’t have to tell you that this watch sits way outside my usual wheelhouse. Like, on the opposite side of the planet from it, if we’re being frank with one another. However, I can still appreciate this watch as an intellectual experiment and an exercise in watchmaking and design. Even if my wrists could support something this size, I wouldn’t wear the Diabolus in Machina, but I would definitely be interested in checking this watch out in the metal. It’s too wild for me not to want to see it.

Furthermore, I like that this watch is a piece unique and not some random installment in a collection. It makes its experimental nature feel more genuine and impressive. In the photos here, you can see just how tangled up the dial elements are, but I’m interested to see how the various colors and finishes play off one another in shifting light. I’m willing to bet that there’s a lot more clarity here than you see at first glance. I’d also love to dig deeper into the mechanics at play. Things like the dual micro-rotors for winding, that spinning repeater disc, and the finer engineering points here are clearly fascinating. Even if Roger Dubuis isn’t your bag aesthetically (and it’s certainly not mine), a lange sohne lange 1 moonphase replica the watchmaking is exceptional and definitely worth paying attention to.
Abrand that never had to go to the neighbors, i.e., fellow Richemont Group brands, for a bit of inspiration or watchmaking prowess is Roger Dubuis. Their latest devilish machine is the Roger Dubuis Excalibur Diabolus In Machina, and it packs a minute repeater, a flying tourbillon, and a host of other mechanical and design quirks.

The greatest thing in Bell & Ross Replica Watches to get 2019 is that the debut of the Bell & Ross BR 05 series that aBlogtoWatch surfaced here. The BR 05 is the first important new timepiece set that Bell & Ross has released for a while, and it’s the very first product whose layout is directly affected by watches Bell & Ross has generated previously.patek philippe 5711 replica

Bell & Ross threw its hat into the highly competitive integrated steel sports watch ring last year with the new BR 05 model line. Clearly inspired by the success of luxury steel sports watches but sticking to their characteristic round dial in a square case shape, the BR 05 opened up a new segment of the French watch brand.https://www.highluxurystore.com

To power this BR 05 Chrono, Bell & Ross relies on the tried-and-tested BR-CAL.301, based on the automatic modular chronograph ETA 2894-2. As with the 3-hand models, it features an openworked rotor. Note: the movement has not been photographed here, as the watch was still a prototype.
With the new addition to the BR-05 range, Bell and Ross introduce a bi-register chronograph to the watch, whilst increasing the case diameter to 42mm. The 42mm size on the case brings the new chronograph into line with other integrated bracelet chronographs in the market, but will likely do nothing to avoid similar “copycat” critiques thrown at the original BR-05.

Bell & Ross has always insisted on breaking out of the existing framework and relentlessly exploring new areas of timepieces. This chapter of the story of the mind richard mille rm 72-01 was unveiled just last year, when the brand launched BR 01 MIND as a declaration to break the traditional watchmaking concept. The Vikings of nearly a thousand years ago, the pirates of the 17th and 18th centuries, and the paratroopers of the Second World War, particularly in the military countries, can see the skull logo. In history, brave warriors will hang their richard mille rm 71-01 talisman on their bodies to show their braveness, which is used to deter the actual enemy, and also has the meaning of recommending good luck to avoid evil. In the past, pirates would hang the particular black Jolly Roger sailing flag on the mast from the ship, mostly in the pattern of two bones under the skull, which is said to have the effect of deterring the staff of other ships. In the early morning of June 6, 1944, typically the Allied forces landed in Normandy. At that time, the 82nd Airborne Division and a hundred and first Airborne Division of the US Army descended from the sky. The badges in the parachutists' parachuting uniforms had a cranium logo and the words Death from Above. Bell & Ross pays the highest honor to the courageous soldiers with the SKULL skull timepiece.

The actual geometric shape enhances the visual texture associated with pixels, just like the effect when the image is enlarged. The shape of the head and leg bones is also conceived in this way. The oris divers sixty-five replica irregular faceted lines undoubtedly possess the shadow regarding digital art. When a digital image is still, the constituent pixels can be seen best swiss replica watches.

The clean lines have taste of contemporary art and certain avant-garde trends. Many artists' works also have this method of expressing different levels of reality, checking the relationship between people as well as speed, light and of an. Clear corner lines and lightweight elements play an important role. The see-thorugh glass face and brain reflect lighting to create a visual effect of light and also shadow. cheap replica watches is like an innovative masterpiece of design, with head turning design that produces thinking. The particular screw-inlaid mind, crossbones along with audemars piguet royal oak offshore replica  movable chin seem to be suspended between 2 pieces of blue glass, while the matt black bezel and no lugs enhance this views.
