Black Dial Steel Case Longines heritage 1935 Replica Watch

However, this Steel Case Longines heritage 1935 Replica Watch definitely has a pilot vibe to it. Stemming from the highly legible dial with large arabic numerals to the hand choice everything just looks like a “cliche” pilot watch. At the heart of the 42mm cushion-style case beats the L615 movement, which is based off of the ETA 2895-2. The black alligator strap matches the dial and gives the watch a good, dressy look. However, like most other pilot watches it will look good on a variety of straps, so the possibilities of this watch are endless.

Picture

With my coverage of <$2,000 Longines heritage 1935 Replica Watch the majority of the past week, it’s time to change things up a little. The newest Longines retails at $2,500. This watch, as the name suggests, is a reissue of the popular design from the 1930’s. Originally intended for use by pilots this watch ended up being more popular with the general public. It is really up to the strap to decide what occasion this watch should be worn to. I can’t believe I’m saying this but the 1935 may be the watch for all occasions (depending on strap choice of course).
Picture

There are many subtle details found on this Longines Replica Watch including, but not limited to: the beveling on the case, the small branding on the dial, and the multiple layers of AR coating on the sapphire crystal. Since this is a pilot watch, it probably won’t be seeing any water so the case is water resistant to 30m (splash resistant). I love how Longines kept the outside design as original as possible but gave us all the modern features we have come to expect from a watch of this caliber. The mixing of the new and the old on the Longines Heritage 1935 was very well executed and Longines did a very good job.

Baselworld 2014: Cheap Shinola Runwell 41mm White Replica Watch

Sorry about the lack of pictures on this one, but with very strict terms of use over at Cheap Shinola Runwell 41mm White Replica Watch, I don’t want to get sued. The new Runwell is a 3-hand watch with a 41mm case. Since their past Runwell models came in 47mm cases, this new case size will not only have a wider appeal but also look better on people with smaller wrists.

Shinola Runwell 41mm White

It will feature the hand-assembled argonite 1069.2 quartz movement that ticks at 3,600 BPH (get it?). The case style shinola runwell replica is the same as other watches in the runwell collection and the leather strap is made by Hadley-Roma. There aren’t many special things about this watch, just the popular Runwell in a new 41mm size. Click here for more information regarding this new watch. To see the rest of the new Shinola watches for 2014, click here. The Shinola Runwell 41mm White will retail for $750.

Baselworld 2014: Cheap Bell&Ross B-ROCKET Replica Watch

However, this watch stood out from the rest. The Cheap Bell&Ross B-ROCKET Replica Watch are inspired by a motorcycle that basically uses both aeronautics and motorcycle technology as a thrust system. For basic movement the B-ROCKET uses a Harley Davidson engine. If you want to go a bit faster you can flip a switch and Bond-style airplane engines will turn on for an added boost.

Picture

Trying to cover the Bell&Ross B-ROCKET Replica Watch released for Baselworld is a daunting task. There are thousands upon thousands of new models every year and trying to pick out the most interesting or most important ones can be difficult.

r. Picture

These turbines use the same technology as airplane engines which I won’t get into because I don’t want to write a multi-page essay. Back to the watch, there are two versions available, the BR 01 B-ROCKET and the BR 03 B-ROCKET. The BR 01 is slightly more complicated and in addition to the timekeeping functions has a chronograph; the BR 03 features a power reserve and big date. No information has been provided about what movements are used as of yet.

Picture Picture

As with many watches nowadays, the Bell&Ross Replica Watch has a large case and at 46mm in diameter this watch will take some getting used to. The BR 03 is in a slightly more reasonable size at 42mm in diameter. Both watches will have leather straps with pin buckles. Last year Baselworld rang up a record 122,000 visitors. However, if people could see all the new watches for this year before the show started, something tells me the number would have been highe.

Best Girard Perregaux 

Pink Gold Girard Perregaux Constant Escapement L.M. Replica Watch

Girard Perregaux Constant Escapement L.M. Replica Watch is some serious tension. Besides the six day power reserve, the GP09100-0002 movement has 271 components and 28 jewels. It is also a large movement at 17.5”’ or 39.2mm. However, the movement size is appropriate for a case as large as this one. There’s a lot of pink gold in this case at 48mm in diameter, one of the reasons why the watch is going to be so expensive (probably somewhere around $110,000-$130,000). The black alligator leather strap is hand stitched and will include a pink gold folding buckle.

Picture

Baselworld ended yesterday and there are still lots of watches to cover. Last year girard-perregaux constant escapement watch replica released the constant force escapement in a steel case. This year they have made a new version of the watch, using the same movement, but in a pink gold case.

Picture Picture

To fit a six day power reserve in a watch with two barrels they had to use 1.5 meter mainsprings in each. Many times companies can ruin watches by releasing them in a gold version, however, this new girard-perregaux watch replica looks amazing in the new case and although the price is (very) high, it will still sell around 100 of them, just because of the very limited market of people looking to drop over 100K on a watch. Very cool.

Baselworld 2014: Best Hublot Classic Fusion Cathedral Tourbillon Minute Repeater Replica Watch

Today I will discuss their next new Best Hublot Classic Fusion Cathedral Tourbillon Minute Repeater Replica Watch. The case is available in two different metals, “King” gold and titanium. Both versions will have cases that are 45mm in diameter and water resistant to 30m. This movement is brand new for Hublot and since it is made in-house you will not find it in any other watches anywhere. The HUB8001 is a new movement for Hublot. It took 24 months of research and development to perfect and with that kind of time frame there wont be any problems with this movement. Picture

Before everyone gets too excited I must add that the gold version hublot classic fusion replica (Ref No. 504.OX.0180.LR) is a limited edition of 50 pieces while the titanium version (Ref No. 504.NX.0170.LR) is a limited edition of 99 pieces. The leather strap features a deployant clasp, a nice feature to have on a watch that I am sure will be expensive. More information will be on It’s All About Watches soon. Picture

Hublot is focusing mainly on the hublot replica watch this year. A few days ago I covered Vitrail, which has a stained glass dial. In addition, the Tourbillon Minute Repeater, although it has been completely redesigned since the original release in 2010, is able to keep the signature Hublot look that buyers want. Since the watch has two complicated complications the movement has 319 parts, 30 of which are jewels.

Baselworld 2014: Best Alpina Alpiner 4 Replica Watch Collection

This Best Alpina Alpiner 4 Replica Watch, first off, has a 44mm case which houses Alpina’s workhorse bi-compax movement, the AL-860. Although I have zero idea how to use it the outer rotating bezel is supposed to be used for as a compass, hence the “36” marks (360˚ in a circle).

Picture I will start with the Alpina Alpiner 4 Replica Watch. Inside beats the AL-550 movement which allows the wearer to independently move the hour hand for easy time zone changes. In addition, it also has the inner rotating bezel for the GMT hand.Picture Picture

The new Alpiner 4 collection from Alpina Alpiner Replica Watch  has two new watches, a bi-compax chronograph and a GMT. Both come in a number of versions and we should expect the GMT to cost less than $2000, probably around $1000-$1500. I would expect the chronograph to go for around $2,000-$2,400 depending on the version.

Picture Picture

You can see the pictures of the different Alpina Replica Watch below. Not as cool as being at Basel, but they are pretty good pictures that give you a good idea what the watches look like.

Picture Picture

The inner rotating bezel is for a second time zone. Pictures of all the versions are available below. Next we will briefly discuss the new Alpiner 4 GMT/24H. This watch also has a 44mm case however, the movement is brand new.

Baselworld 2014: Best Breitling Navitimer 46mm/48mm Replica Watch

The Best Breitling Navitimer 48mm Replica Watch version, which is a chronograph/GMT will also be available in steel and red gold (200 piece LE). Let’s start with the 46mm watch. It will use the in-house Breitling Caliber 01 (B01, hence the name Breitling Navitimer 01). It will have all the same design/functions as the original (slide rule bezel, polished steel case, panda dial, etc.). The dial will be available in black (pictured) as well as aurora blue (not pictured). The 48mm version, aka the Breitling Navitimer GMT will use the in-house B04.

Picture

The Best Breitling Navitimer 46mm Replica Watch has been available in a 41.5mm case ever since it was released over 60 years ago. However, since the trend today is large watches, they have just released a 46mm as well as a 48mm version of their watch, the new XL sizes. You will also note that many companies are releasing smaller watches, so this trend may not be around for much longer.

Picture Picture

There isn’t much Breitling Navitimer Replica Watch difference between the two movements, both have 47 jewels, a date complication, a chronograph, even the same subdial layout. It will be available in a black dial (pictured) or a mercury dial (not pictured although the silver color will look really cool). Both versions will come with either a barenia leather or crocodile leather straps.Picture

There will be 2 versions of the new 46mm Navitimer: the chronograph, which is available in red gold (200 piece LE) and steel.  The steel version is available with the leather straps as well as the bracelet. This watch defined pilot watches as well as pilot chronographs but now Breitling is letting others define the pilot chronograph for them by releasing the Breitling Replica Watch in a larger size.

Baselworld 2014: cheap bell & ross br03-92 ceramic replica watch

The cheap bell & ross br03-92 ceramic replica watch is included with two straps, a heavy-duty canvas as well as a thick black rubber strap. To match the case color they will come with a black PVD buckle. This watch is a new take on a classic pilot watch and I can appreciate the effort Bell & Ross designers put into making the ceramic case because despite common belief, they had to completely reengineer the case to make sure it would fit around the movement and still remain water resistant.

Picture

This bell & ross br03-92 replica is pure functionality. It has large white hands and markers set on a black dial. The case design of this watch, which is based off of their older cockpit clocks, is commonly used by Bell & Ross. In the past they released the red radar version of the BR03-92 as well as the phantom version (blackout). This version is more classic with a new case material, ceramic.

Picture

Since legibility is a big area of concern on this watch, all the hands and markers are coated with superluminova. However, they were able to succeed and they did a great job.  Picture

The case is 42mm in diameter bell & ross replica watch and it is probably close to 50mm in length with the relatively short lugs. It will come with an automatic movement that displays the hours, minutes, seconds as well as the date.

Baselworld 2014: hublot classic fusion tourbillon vitrail replica watches online sale

The blue and red hublot classic fusion tourbillon vitrail replica watches online sale you see is actually stained glass. Cut with a laser this glass is made to fit into the spaces to the micron. The stained glass they use is made in Switzerland and is currently available in ten colors, so there will most likely be more than just red and blue in the future. In addition, Hublot is also thinking of extending this technology to include semi-precious stones, ceramic, wood, or stone and with 15 spaces to fill, a person could basically create their own custom watch.

Picture

hublot classic fusion tourbillon vitrail replica is always a fan of new technology. Often times, they are the ones creating it. Now they have just released another watch with some new technology. The Vitrail currently comes in 4 versions. Red or blue in a 45mm steel case, and red or blue in a 45mm black ceramic case. This watch is something special.

Picture

The hublot classic fusion replica movement is the in-house HUB6017 hand-wound skeleton tourbillon movement which has a 5-day power reserve, 251 parts (19 of which are jewels), and a frequency of 21,600BPH.

Picture

The strap looks extremely comfortable because it is not your everyday leather strap. It is actually black alligator leather stitched onto black rubber. That means that the softer rubber will be against your wrist, which in my opinion is a bit more comfortable. The deployant buckle is available in 18K red gold or black PVD steel.

Picture

However, it will be released in a limited edition of just 20 pieces per version. New technology, hublot replica watch tourbillon, great design, just an all-around great watch.

Best Omega Speedmaster Professional Apollo 11 45th Anniversary Limited Edition Replica Watch

The Omega Speedmaster Professional Apollo 11 45th Anniversary Limited Edition Replica Watch uses the same movement as the original, the Caliber 1861. Omega says the dial is black PVD coated, although it looks more like a shade of gray/brown in the pictures and video. The dial is made using a special laser which creates the design elements on the watch’s face by removing the material surrounding the name, sub-dial numerals and hour markers. The indexes as well as the hour, minute, seconds and sub-dial hands are made out of 18K red gold.

Picture Apollo 11 was the first mission to successfully reach the moon. To celebrate the 45th anniversary of this occasion, Omega has released a limited edition watch that not only celebrates the achievement of getting to the moon, Omega Speedmaster Professional Replica Watch also pays homage to the chronograph that was there the whole time. Unlike the original version, this watch has a 42mm case in titanium. Picture

However, this is grade 2 titanium, not grade 5 like other Omega Speedmaster Replica Watch. The two grades are basically the same with the exception that grade 2 is not as strong as grade 5. However, the central chronograph hand is red gold-plated because it needs to be very thin in order to not hit the crystal and since gold would bend at this thickness, they had to plate it. Picture

The watch will be produced in a limited edition of just 1,969 pieces, the same year Apollo 11 went to the moon. It will be available in July 2014 for a price of $6,400. Picture The titanium, gold, brown Omega Replica Watch, and dial all work perfectly together to create a gorgeous watch that doesn’t look like any other Speedmaster that has been made or is likely to be made.
