A. Lange & Sohne

Designed from the ground up. For all lovers of the outstanding Lange 1 watches, including those who especially enjoyed the process of winding the movement, the German manufacture introduced the automatic Lange 1 Daymatic watch with a sector indicator of the day of the week. For a watch collection with a prestigious name, this marks the beginning of a new era.

At first glance, the watch seems familiar, but a detailed examination shows how innovative it is. They have a newly developed automatic mechanism that provides collections with completely new perspectives.

On the dial, the main dial with the hour and minute hands is located on the right. For those who appreciate high-end watches who are used to wearing a watch on their left wrist, this design gives a definite advantage. When they open the watch, pushing back the sleeve, the first thing they see will be the most important information - the current time.

The watch uses an automatic Caliber L021.1, which was literally designed from scratch. The efficiency of the plant process is ensured by a heavy central rotor, decorated with an exquisite bas-relief inscription "A. Lange & Sohne". The rotor is equal to the entire diameter of the mechanism - 31.6 mm. It is made of nickel silver, an alloy traditionally used in Lange due to its remarkable properties. The outer sector of the rotor is made of platinum; it helps to turn even the smallest hand movements into kinetic energy that winds the watch.

When fully wound, the travel spring has a 50-hour power reserve.

The mechanism has a manually engraved balance bridge, a balance unit without a thermometer, a large balance wheel with eccentric adjusting weights, as well as a balance spring designed and manufactured in Lange workshops. The balance node operates at a frequency of 21,600 vibrations per hour.

Chopard

"Snake" of the Urushi East. The case of the novelty is made of 18 ct pink gold with a diameter of 39.5 mm. The dial is eye-catching, as it is made in the oldest varnishing technique - Urushi.

The figure on the dial is completely made by hand. A flowering shrub with a golden snake around it is listed in Chinese literature as a symbol of good luck. The icing is derived from the juice of the Urushi tree, known as the "lacquer tree." This tree grows in East Asia, mainly in Japan and China. Juice is collected as well as juice from a rubber tree: it is necessary to tear off the bark and collect the resin. For three to five years, the resin is processed to transform the consistency of the varnish. This material is resistant to acids, alkalis and alcohol, and also withstands high temperatures.

A model based on an ultra-thin self-winding mechanism L. U. S. 96.17-L is functioning. Caliber 6.8 mm thick, assembled on 29 stones. Power reserve - 65 hours. The balance frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour. The caliber is fully decorated by hand, and the impeccable micro-rotor is decentralized. His work can be observed through sapphire crystal.

Breguet

A new dimension of the Type XXII chronograph. Breguet will present this year a new version of the Type XXII mechanical chronograph with an oscillation frequency of 10 Hz (up to 72,000 vibrations per hour). Model Type XXII 3880 is now made in an 18-carat rose gold case. The second hand of the chronograph makes a complete revolution in 30 seconds. At the same time, the minute indication located in the form of alternating white and red strokes along the perimeter of the dial, as well as the second indication of the same colors, makes it possible to determine whether the chronograph makes the first (red sectors) or second (white sectors) 30-second revolution. The Breguet Chronograph also has a fly-back feature that allows you to instantly return to zero and start a new measurement.

The clock allows you to determine the time in the second time zone, and the convenience of translating the central clockwise without affecting the minute provides a two-position head. The 24-hour indicator of day and night at the 3 o'clock position tells the owner of the clock day or night time in the second time zone. A gold case is complemented by a brown leather strap.

Dewitt

Fascinating "blackness". The striking design of the watch creates a feeling of extraordinary lightness. The 43mm diameter case with side columns in a mature style perfectly matches this model. Thanks to the smooth shape of the “ears”, the watch is extremely comfortable to wear, and the bezel polished with micro balls and the side of the case create an amazing play of light. Due to this, the new design has become more vibrant and dynamic.

“Galvanic” black color acquires amazing depth due to the volumetric relief and sectors with a guilloche pattern. Pink gold overhead indices, as if strung on an invisible thread, stand out clearly against a dark background. The “scene” is complemented by a small retrograde dial with a pattern that resembles thin, vibrant flames of fire that sway solemnly in time.

The mechanical "heart" of the watch is the automatic caliber DW1102 with Agenhor retrograde seconds display module. The frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour provides the highest possible accuracy.

Eberhard & Co

The first wall clock. In honor of its 125th anniversary, the Swiss watch manufacturer introduced the Chrono 4 wall clock. With a diameter of 40cm, an aluminum case and an electronic mechanism, the Chrono 4 Wall Clock personifies the "movement of the manufactory in time." The watch has four additional small dials showing time in capitals such as London, New York, Moscow and Tokyo. If you wish, you can pick up other time zones. On the white dial are hour, minute and second hands.

Ocean Sport ™ Chronograph: for him.

Multi-level dial, complex mechanism, technical excellence. The Zalium® alloy bezel is rotated in one direction with DLC-coated hour markers, emphasizing the bright, contemporary character of the model. The case, also made of Zalium® alloy, serves as an excellent setting for a three-dimensional dial with a smoky metallic finish that gives the time display a special depth.

The most complicated skeletonized mechanism is clearly visible behind the arrows coated with Superluminova. Hourly and minute markings are applied to the flange, and luminescent elements guarantee optimal readability of readings in any conditions.

Ocean Sport ™ Quartz: for her.

The Ocean Sport ™ Quartz watch is based on a bold combination of sporty design and high technical sophistication.
