Best Corum Admirals Cup AC-One 45 Double Tourbillon Replica Watch

The 45mm layered case Best Corum Admirals Cup AC-One 45 Double Tourbillon Replica Watch is water resistant to 300m and 14.4mm thick. But as much as the sporty edge is prevalent on these watches they are also rather classy. The leather band really completes this look. Each balance wheel will be beating at 21,600 BPH and even though the dial is somewhat skeletonized, it still has an exhibition caseback.

Picture

This Corum Admirals Cup Replica Watch can be used up to five minutes before or after the hour. However, as with their other Admirals Cup watches, it is built for action. This new watch will be available in either 18K gold or grade 5 titanium and it will be seen by anyone not from Corum at Basel 2014. No information on pricing has been released yet, but I will update you on the everything I hear. It will be expensive, but I am just not sure yet. Thanks for reading!

Corum Replica Watch is a small company based out of La Chaux-de-Fonds. This new watch will be available for Baselworld 2014. It is Corum’s first double tourbillon. They really hit it out of the park with this new watch. They did not stop at just the tourbillon, but they also offered a 72-hour power reserve in the caliber CO 1008. They also added a retrograde date and another very interesting feature. One can push the crown and set the minute hand instantly to 12 so it is easier to set the exact time.

Pre-Basel 2014: Best Girard Perregaux Blue Dialed Replica Watch

The Best Girard Perregaux Blue Dialed Replica Watch case and dial are slightly curved to fit the contour of one’s wrist better unlike other square watches that are flat, making them uncomfortable (some of them at least) to wear. This nice touch causes the small seconds dial to have a slight ridge on top, because it cannot sit flat on a curved dial. This small area is not a negative thing however because it gives the dial the 3D look desired by many.

First off, I apologize for the length between the last blog post and this one, school has been really busy. Now for the new info… Girard Perregaux is perhaps most famous for their Chronohawk models. However these new watches are not from this collection. Both new models, the 1966 and Vintage 1945 have blue dials, something becoming more and more popular nowadays. I will cover both below.Picture

The Girard Perregaux Replica Watch combines both elegance and prestige in a gorgeous 38mm pink gold case. The dial is slightly domed, yes the dial is, and has a sunray pattern on it, giving it a beautiful effect by making the light reflect. The hands and markers are thin all the way around, keeping the dial uncluttered and allowing it to keep the dressier look the case size gives it. It uses the GP03300-0030 automatic movement with a power reserve of 46 hours and 28,800BPH, giving it a smooth second sweep.

Picture

The “XXL” notation in the name must be for 1945 standards. The case is 36.20 mm x 35.25 mm, smaller than most watches out there. It will be available on either a bracelet or leather strap and each will have a blue dial. Each of these watches will be available to buy in the summer of 2014, but may be hard to find depending on how well they sell and how many GP has time to produce. No information on pricing has been announced but I will guess that the 1966 is more expensive, just because of the gold. Thank you for reading and baring Girard Perregaux Replica with me through this “off” time!

Pre-Basel 2014: Another New Alpina Replica Watch

This New Alpina Replica Watch is going more on the theme of the original collection while the Black Star is really a beautiful new addition. Both versions have absolutely nothing wrong with them in terms of look or function and they really are nice watches. The watch has a diameter of 44mm and is 10.2mm thick. Pilot style watches may be the second most popular genre of watches, so it will sell amazingly well. The looks and features come together to create a perfect storm. It has everything someone could ask for, applied numerals and markers, screw-down crown, good size, automatic movement from a company that has an amazing reputation.

Picture It is post Alpina Replica Watch SIHH 2014 so it is time to look to the future, to Baselworld. SIHH is really just a small Basel. The former has 16 brands while the latter has easily over 100. While I can cover all of the new watches from 16 brands, 100 is far too many. Although I will do my best to write about the most interesting ones. Well, this watch qualifies as interesting. Picture

It is again part of the Startimer collection, the first new watch I covered here. Unlike the Black Star, which has a stealth case and black sunray dial, this watch goes on the original theme of the collection, a steel case and gray dial. As a result, it is named the Sunstar. Both versions have their own merits. My estimate for price is around $1,250 (MSRP) but I think that with some AD discounts it may be as low as $950-$1,000. This new watch is really going to do well and I can’t wait to see it in person when I get the chance. I know from experience that pictures of sunray dials don’t do them justice and I know this watch won’t be an exception. Alpina Replica until Baselworld 2014!

Best Swiss Alpina Black Star Replica Watch

Unlike the original, that has a gray sunburst dial, this new Best Swiss Alpina Black Star Replica Watch has a stunning black sunburst dial and PVD or DLC (I am not sure which) “stealth” case. The dial and case design remains the same otherwise. They both use the same in-house bi-compax automatic chronograph movement, the caliber AL-860. I do not believe the Black Star is a limited edition like the original Startimer chrono.

The Black Star is just beautiful and although I hope to see more from Alpina, but this watch is more than enough in my book. It looks like a pilot watch and unlike most, it is actually functional and something that a pilot might wear. I just love watches like this one.

Picture

The new Alpina Black Star Replica Watch  has a beautiful sunray dial and bi-compax chronograph layout. In the midst of all the new watches for SIHH 2014, we can sometimes easily overlook the new watches for Baselworld. One of these watches is the Alpina Black Star, a new model based off of their wildly popular Startimer chronograph.

Picture

The AL-860 movement can be viewed through the exhibition caseback. I think Alpina’s design team did a good thing by taking a very popular watch and giving it a new twist. Often times these “new twists” ruin the Alpina Replica Watch completely but it makes this watch look better than ever.

Rado hyperchrome Automatic Chronograph Replica Watch in Plasma Ceramic

The Rado hyperchrome Automatic Chronograph Replica Watch is, first of all, an automatic chronograph and uses a movement found in all their other hyperchrome auto chronos. It has proven to be a reliable and accurate movement and can be viewed through the exhibition caseback.

Picture

Rado, the company famous for their ceramic watches has just released another ceramic watch, this time with something new and special. The thing that is special about this watch is not the movement, but the ceramic it is made out of. The case is a single block of ceramic made with no metal frames, much like the Rado hyperchrome Automatic replica. But one thing the Omega doesn’t have is the plasma treatment.  Picture

The ceramic alone is the same as all their other watches. The regular process consists of firing clay in the shape of the case to turn it into ceramic. Then sharp edges are filed down, some final finishing of the case is done and the process ends there. Picture There is not much else to mention about the watch. It works, like most of their other watches, with either a suit or jeans, an extremely hard thing to do. No information has been released on pricing yet but if I had to guess it would retail for around $5,000 (MSRP), maybe more because this process has never been used on another watch before. Thanks for reading!

This wasn’t good enough for Rado replica watches so they took it one step further and basically blasted the case and bracelet with plasma, giving it a fantastic metallic look. The gases alter the surface of the ceramic (at 20,000˚C) so it will permanently have a metallic shine, no matter what happens to it.
