SAINT HONORE – Worldcode GMT

SAINT HONORE – Worldcode GMT NEW

Discover the new Worldcode GMT, Taking on the challenge of time

WORLDCODE is the sporty chic watch in the SAINT HONORE collection. Following the success of its Diving and Chronograph Ceramic versions, the WORLDCODE now comes in a GMT model.

GMT, which stands for Greenwich Mean Time, is a complication that is particularly valued by travellers as it allows them to read off the time in more than one time zone: three in the case of the WORLDCODE GMT, including two simultaneously.

Click on the mouse wheel to see the large size ...      BIG FOTO 

 


While the traditional hands (hours and minutes) give the main time, the addition of an extra hours hand means the time can be read simultaneously in a second time zone on a 24-hour scale engraved on the bezel.

Thanks to this bezel and its rotating feature, it is also possible to read the time in a third time zone.

This new WORLDCODE GMT has been slightly modified compared to previous editions, stylishly enhancing its masculinity: it now has a 43 mm round steel case and a bezel with 12 impeccably regular notches. The meticulously screw-locked crown is of exceptional quality.

In either the black or brown version, the sunray dial is decorated with white luminescent hour-markers and hands to ensure perfect readability in all conditions. The same goes for the red GMT hand with its triangular marking of white luminescent pigment.

Click on the mouse wheel to see the large size ...    

Because the new Worldcode GMT quartz has no limits, SAINT HONORE has extended its water resistance to 150 metres to appeal to water sports lovers.

Available in four variations, mounted on a steel bracelet or leather strap, in a steel or rose gold version, the WORLDCODE GMT has all the qualities a man could dream of, combining an exceptional design with unsurpassed quality at this price level.

The new Worldcode GMT takes on every challenge – in the air, on the ground or under water – and always with that special SAINT HONORE elegance!

Frederique Constant – Manufacture Heart Beat Limited Edition

Frederique Constant – Manufacture Heart Beat Limited Edition NEW

BASELWORLD 2014

Frederique Constant celebrates its 10 Years Heart Beat Manufacture
Introducing the Heart Beat Manufacture Calibre FC-945 Silicium

Following the success of the launch of the first Heart Beat Manufacture Calibre in 2004, Frederique Constant has presented every year an additional version to its Heart Beat Manufacture range. Some features remained constant, such as the signature aperture, perfectly centred at the 6 o’clock position. Each year, however, new design features have been added; the Heart Beat is constantly being revised, updated and technically advanced.

Click on the mouse wheel to see the large size ...       BIG FOTO

In 2014, Frederique Constant will introduce the new FC-945 Silicium Heart Beat Calibre, improved in terms of reliability, durability and pure technical excellence. For the past two years, the R&D Department at Frederique Constant has been designing, developing and improving the 126 components contained in the all-new Heart Beat Manufacture. Now, our company is delighted to introduce its implementation of the newest, most technologically superior materials available in the world today.

Solving old problems
The accuracy of any mechanical timepiece is utterly dependent on the accuracy of the actual timing device, the balance wheel, balance spring and the escapement. The balance wheel’s job is to spin back and forth at a frequency of 4Hz. It is the frequency of the swing of the balance wheel, which determines the watch’s accuracy.

The escapement’s most critical function is to keep the balance spring winding and unwinding. Since watches were first invented, the requirements assigned to the escapement have involved high levels of friction. The teeth of the escapement wheel are driven by the mainspring’s power source. They slide against the teeth of the ratchet a nano-second before they lock together. This is the friction, which kicks the anchor. It is also the friction that means lubrication will be necessary.

The ticking sound of a Frederique Constant watch is created when the balance spring gear and the escapement teeth lock together. In virtually all-modern escapements, the ratchet’s teeth are extremely hard and highly polished stone. Despite these levels of strength and polished smoothness, lubrication is still required.

Until now, lubrication has been required to protect escapements from the damaging effects of friction. As the lubrication used in the escapement ages, thins or dries out, the level of friction increases, and less power is transferred to the all-important balance wheel.

Unless an escapement is properly lubricated, it can become damaged to the point where metal parts will have to be replaced. Modern watches are typically more reliable than their predecessors due to the higher quality oils used to lubricate the escapement. To maintain mechanical watches in optimum working condition, they normally require cleaning and lubricating every four years.

Introducing Silicium
Silicium is the chemical element represented in the periodic table by the symbol Si; its atomic number is 14. A tetravalent metalloid, Silicium is less reactive than its chemical analogue, carbon. Silicium does not freely occur in nature but mainly occurs in minerals consisting of virtually pure Silicium dioxide in different crystalline forms, including quartz, chalcedony and opal. It is also found in silicates (various minerals containing Silicium, oxygen and one other metal), such as feldspar. Silicium is the principal component of most semi-conductor devices and takes the form of silica and silicates in glass, cement and ceramics. Silicium is widely used in semi-conductors, because it remains a semi-conductor at higher temperatures than does the semi-conductor Germanium. In addition, Silicium’s native oxide is easily grown in a furnace and forms a better semi-conductor/dielectric interface than virtually all other material combinations. In its crystalline form, Silicium is dark gray in colour and has a metallic lustre. It is similar to glass in that it is quite strong. Pure Silicium has a negative temperature coefficient of resistance, because the number of free charge carriers increases with temperature.


Manufacturing a Silicium escapement
The crafting of a Silicium escapement wheel requires the use of a new technology called Deep Reactive Ion Etching (DRIE).  A multiple image of the escapement is produced and projected onto a round Silicium wafer measuring 100 mm in diameter by just 0.5 mm in thickness. Typically, wafers are made in various sizes ranging from 1 inch (25.4 mm) to 11.8 inches (300 mm), and generally to a thickness of 0.5 mm. The wafers are cut from a boule of semi-conductor using a diamond saw or diamond wire; they are then polished on one or both faces. Using a single 100 mm wafer, it is possible to produce up to 250 escapement wheels.
The wafer itself is composed of three different substrates, or layers of Silicium. The central substrate functions as the separation layer. After the image of the escapement wheel has been projected on the wafer, the exposed lacquered substrate is cleaned away, leaving the non-exposed parts of the wafer. Then, the non-exposed lacquered substrate is etched with plasma, down to the separation layer. The Silicium escapement is then released via isotropic etching. The pieces produced by this operation only have to be cleaned on the surface. Each wheel is completely identical and requires absolutely no balancing, centring or polishing. Such wafers are the keys to the fabrication of the Frédérique Constant Silicium escapement.

Benefits of the Silicium Escapement
   
Lubricant-free running

•     1.Age-related thinning and drying of lubrication will no longer occur.
•     2.An escapement wheel that doesn’t require oiling avoids the risk of excess oil spreading to other parts of the movement.

Very light (low inertia)   

•    The escapement wheel is accelerated and stopped at each tick and tock of
•    the watch.
•    The low-weight Silicium escapement wheel has lower inertia, thereby
•    increasing energy efficiency.

Good friction properties 

•    Lower friction reduces energy loss. Hence, the energy requirements for this
•    calibre are lower.

The Heart Beat Manufacture features a Silicium escapement that uses less power and maintains amplitude more efficiently than a standard lever escapement, because it functions without lubrication.

Building technical perfection into a beautiful body
The Heart Beat Manufacture watches with the new Silicium escapement are part of the Frederique Constant Manufacture Collection. The Heart Beat Manufacture Silicium features the recognizable popular patented balance wheel bridge on the front side of the calibre.The Silicium escapement wheel can clearly be seen through the Heart Beat aperture in the dial, working tirelessly and at the same time creating an eye-catching effect. The new Heart Beat Manufacture Silicium Calibre is housed in a stainless steel case, measuring 42 mm in diameter. The popular sapphire crystal see-through case back is another feature certain to please. This first Frédérique Constant Heart Beat Manufacture model with Silicium escapement wheel and specially designed dial will only be offered in a limited edition of 188 pieces in 18K gold and 1888 in steel.

Blancpain – Villeret Carrousel Moon Phase

Blancpain – VILLERET Carrousel Moon Phase NEW

BASELWORLD 2014
First-ever encounter between a carrousel and a moon phase 

Blancpain presents a movement uniting two of the brand’s most iconic horological complications. The carrousel and the moon phase. This new model in the Villeret collection once again expresses the tradition of innovation driving the Manufacture

Click on the mouse wheel to see the large size ...           BIG FOTO

The new Blancpain 225L movement unites a carrousel, a moon phase and a date for the very first time. Having been consigned to oblivison over a century, the carrousel (karussel) was brought back by Blancpain to the forefront of the watchmaking scene in 2008, with the introduction of the world’s first flying carrousel to perform a one-minute rotation.

Blancpain – 225 movement
Click on the mouse wheel to see the large size ...       

Like the tourbillon, the carrousel also aims to reduce the effects of gravity on the rate of the movement. The distinction between these two devices lies in their construction. Whereas the tourbillon is linked to the barrel by one gear train, the carrousel has two : the first supplies the energy required to drive the escapement ; while the second controls the rotation speed of the carriage.

Click on the mouse wheel to see the large size ...           BIG FOTO

The moon phase is another complication that had experienced an almost total eclipse until it was reintroduced by Blancpain in the early 1980s. This new fully secured movement, comprising 281 parts including 61 for the carrousel carriage alone, is equipped with silicon balance-spring technology and endowed with a five-day power reserve.

This new timepieces bears all the signature codes of the Villeret collection. The double-stepped case frames a cambered grand feu enamel dial ; a blued steel serpentine hand indicates the date, while the delicately hollowed sage leaf-type hour and minute hands sweep gracefully across painted enamel Roman numerals. The white dial features a 12 o’clock opening revealing the carrousel carriage with its complex mechanism, set exacatly opposite the moon-phase indication at 6 o’clock.

Click on the mouse wheel to see the large size ...           BIG FOTO

The back of the 42 mm-diameter case carries the two under-lug correctors designed to adjust the date and moon phase. This patented Blancpain innovation enables smooth tool-free handling and also serves to preserve the pure lines of the case. The same concern for detail is devoted to the finishes which are visible through the sapphire crystal case-back providing a view of the movement adorned with Côtes de Genève as well as the openworked and striated oscillating weight distinguished by a design echoing that of the carrousel carriage. An alligator leather strap in chocolate brown for the 18-carat red gold version, or black for the platinum limited

EDOX –  Geoscope Limited Edition 2013

21st Century facelift for Edox Geoscope classic

In 1971, leading Swiss watchmaker Edox introduced the Geoscope, the world’s first genuine WorldTimer wristwatch. It was a big (42mm), bold and beautiful creation and immediately became a collectors’ favourite. Now, to mark the 130th anniversary of Edox, the Geoscope returns to enthral a whole new generation of watch lovers.

The original Geoscope’s unique colourful planisphere dial showed the globe as viewed from the South Pole. An inner bezel, displaying 24 divisions, made one complete revolution every 24 hours and the watch also showed GMT time, plus the sun’s position.
