Vacheron Constantin - Les Metiers d'Art "Les Masques" The Les Masques watches from Vacheron Constantine are not traditional by any means, and perhaps even a far cry from what many have come to associate with the Vacheron brand. But this observation is not an insult to these new additions to the Metiers d'Art collection, in fact far from it. I find these imitation watches to be visually refreshing and I marvel at the attention to detail taken while reproducing the masks. They are a unique accomplishment, melding the best of design and function. And while some people will balk at the non-traditional use of masks on watches such as these, I find myself drawn to them. The only problem I foresee would be choosing which one to wear first, were I lucky enough to own them. The Masque Replica Rolex Daytona watches, released in 2007, are only the first four of the twelve to be created. When complete, the collection will consist of 3 sets,Cartier charm bracelet, with one set released each of the three years. There will be four watches in each set, 25 pieces of each. Each of these twelve watches will have a different ancient mask on the dial. The four masks chosen for the first set are a Chinese death mask, a Congolese face mask, an Indonesian theatre mask and an Alaskan frontal mask. They are exact miniature reproductions of actual primitive art masks from the Barbier-Mueller Museum in Geneva. The miniatures were created by scanning the real masks to get a three-dimensional image.

Then producing a prototype in gold that was given to an engraver who meticulously carved the masks to replicate the exact look of these ancient artifacts. After the masks themselves are produced they are then incorporated into the Replica Rolex Submariner watches. The way the masks are placed and the specially-treated glass makes them seem to be floating in space. Each mask is set on a sapphire dial that has been tinted in a complementary color. Each dial is engraved with an individual poem written by a famous a French writer named Michel Butor. The poems themselves are only visible at certain angles accomplished by engraving the underside of each crystal with the words of the poem before filling the engraving with gold. The placement of the hours, minutes, days and date in four separate dials is somewhat non-traditional in itself. The 40 mm cases are produced in white gold for the Alaskan mask, pink gold for the Indonesian mask, yellow gold for the Chinese mask, and platinum for the Congolese mask. While the design of the Replica Omega Seamaster watches are unique, the movement used is the same cal. 2460 found in the Les Metiers d'Art "4 Saisons" unveiled for Vacheron Constantin's 250th anniversary which took place in 2005. They have a transparent caseback and are water resistant to 30 meters. A Brief History of The Breguet Type XX The name Breguet is indeed one of the most recognizable name in watchmaking.

It has accomplished much in its long history as a brand, such as the invention of the tourbillon. The Breguet Type XX was first introduced in 1954, as a pilots watch produced for the French Airforce. Previously pilots had been carrying a pocket Replica Rolex Datejust watch version of the chronograph, and now it had been produced in wristwatch form. The Breguet name has made its mark in aviation in other ways than the design and production of Replica Omega Speedmaster watches for its pilots. The fifth generation descendant of the original Breguet watchmaker, Abbraham Louis Breguet, was Louis Breguet who used his technical genius to manfacture airplanes. He was one of the original founders of Air France. The Breguet XIX made history in 1922 when it made the first non-stop flight from Paris to New York in 37 hours.

The Breguet Type XX was originally equipped with a 30 minute recorder, a flyback function and a straight-line lever escapement. Today it has evolved to include a 30 minute and a 12 hour totalizer, and a graduated rotating bezel. Breguet has also expanded production to include a titanium version as well as the original stainless steel. In celebration of the 50th anniversary of the Type XX the Type XXI was introduced. The Type XX had a slightly smaller 39mm case while the Type XXI is 42mm. The Replica Audemars Piguet Royal Oak also includes a flyback minute totalizer and a 24 hour time display and a stunning 18k pink gold version is available.

A patented mechanism indicates the date of Easter, Patek Philippe Calatrava replica a moveable feast determined by an elaborate system of calculation. The Calibre 89 is also fitted with a celestial chart in sapphire crystal displaying the Milky Way as well as 2,800 northern hemisphere stars in their various magnitudes. Among the exclusive devices is a mechanism to halt the chime before its spring runs out. Only four Calibre 89s were ever, and will ever be made. The first, in yellow gold, fetched 3.2 million dollars at an auction in Geneva held by Antiquorum. Three other examples, respectively in pink gold,cartier love bracelet white gold yellow, in white gold and in platinum left the Patek Philippe workshops in the early 1990s. Corum replica All four now belong to the same person, while the company keeps the cherished prototype. Mechanical poetry In 2000, Patek Philippe once more rose to watchmaking prominence with the double-faced Star Caliber 2000 pocket watch.

The idea was not to put as many complications together as possible, but to "select those that express time in the most poetic way." This essentially means astronomic indications: the course of the stars and the sun, the changing face of the moon, the cycle of the seasons. It recalls the days when people measured time by the recurrence of natural phenomena.

Unlike the Calibre 89, the Star Caliber is available in the Patek Philippe catalogue-provided you have a respectable watch budget and a bit of patience. Even without aiming for the Guinness Book of Records, other major producers and watchmakers have recently come out with watches to demonstrate extreme mechanical sophistication.

The Breguet N° 5, a replica of an antique piece, encloses automatic winding, a power reserve of 60 hours, moon-phase indication and a "dumb" quarter-repeater, striking against the case instead of on a gong. Watchmaker Vincent Bérard has rediscovered the old coaching watches in his Quatre Saisons Carrosse. Entirely crafted by hand, this 90mm-diameter timepiece features a perpetual calendar, a quarter-repeater, and automatons on the dial, a power-reserve indicator and a thermometer. Panerai Luminor replica Only four are made, dedicated to the four seasons-green gold for spring, yellow gold for summer, pink and white gold for fall and winter, with a design in fired enamels for each season.
