STEINHART - "TRITON 30ATM Dual Time"

STEINHART - "TRITON 30ATM Dual Time" NEW

The Triton 30 ATM Dual Time is the proverbial rock solid: massive, robust, resilient, a reliable companion, not only for demanding dives. And yet the watch also radiates a subtle elegance with its fine-brushed stainless steel case, chrome-framed luminous indices on the shimmering metallic gray dial. The unidirectional rotating diver's bezel, date display at six clock and the individually adjustable second time zone, which can be read clearly via the yellow hand can, in turn, leave no doubt that the Triton 30 ATM Dual Time is a very versatile sports instrument.

Hublot - Skull Bang is a Rock’n'roll Rebel

Hublot - Skull Bang is a Rock’n'roll Rebel !

 

Dead cool? It’s a rock’n’roll rebel watch!
With its playful and slightly tongue-in-cheek air, this impudent piece rebelliously thumbs its nose at anyone who takes themselves too seriously. A totally "kick-ass" watch, it wouldn't look out of place on the wrist of any number of rock stars on stage or out and about in the city.

This surprising watch from Hublot is the perfect fusion of a rebel spirit with a deft and daring sense of elegance, never losing sight of the "vanitas", the symbol of the transience of life which remind us how fragile and brief our time is, and that we must live each moment to the full…

Audemars Piguet - Royal Oak Offshore Diver in Forged Carbon















Audemars Piguet - Royal Oak Offshore Diver in Forged Carbon NEW

Two years ago, Audemars Piguet released their first real diver – the Royal Oak Diver – and it’s been a huge success for the brand (We reviewed it in its briny element here.) For 2012 comes a new carbon fiber version with ceramic bezel.


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






    
 Sporting the same dimensions, mega-tapisserie dial, 3120 automatic movement and rotating inner timing ring as the steel Diver, the new version has a decidedly more sporty appearance, thanks to the yellow minute hand and 15-minute arc on the timing ring.

De Bethune - DB25













De Bethune - DB25 NEW 

This Haute Joaillerie creation enjoys all the advantages of De Bethune technology, since it is powered by the hand-crafted DB2024 movement, of which the mirror-polished finish, the silicon/platinum annular balance, and the triple pare-chute shock-absorbing system may be admired through the back of the watch.

The case, in 18kt white gold, measures 40mm x 11mm. It is set 61 baguette-cut blue sapphires totalling 5.29 carats. The dial is a sky in flame-blued mirror-polished titanium with white gold stars and 21 diamonds, moon set with 44 diamonds and 44 blue sapphires at 12 o’clock.

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





































Movement is the Swiss automatic in-house De Bethune caliber DB2105 27 jewels, 28,800 vph and a power reserve of 6 days. The mainplate is hand-decorated and snailed, hand-chamfered and with polished steel parts. The barrels are specifically designed to decrease friction and efficiently transmit a maximum of energy. Silicon/platinum balance wheel with flat terminal curve – Its exceptional lightness enables this balance wheel to reduce mechanical friction and deliver an ideal inertia/mass ratio.









































The principle of the flat end curve, placed on the same level as the balance-spring, compensates for off-centering and facilitates its fastening. Triple pare-chute shock-absorbing system which reduces potential disturbances due to impacts to an absolute minimum and protects the balance-spring pivots.

 Exclusive three-dimensional moon-phase display by means of a platinum and steel sphere set with 44 diamonds and 44 blue sapphires, spinning on its own axis with a precision amounting to a mere one-day difference every 122 years.

BREITLING - Colt 33

 

BREITLING COLT 33 NEW

  The sporty, daring and elegant Colt 33 reflects the true nature of the Breitling woman. It is now interpreted through an original collection combining exclusive new leather straps composing a delightful bouquet of bright colors, a quintessentially feminine expression of the Breitling spirit.
 
With its extremely original design, its 33 mm diameter and its exceptional technology, the Colt 33 launched in 2011 has conquered the hearts and wrists of all women eager to combine aesthetic appeal with high performance. Breitling is now introducing new versions featuring a highly distinctive look.



The focus is firmly on the range of refined straps in Sahara leather, recognizable by their embossed motif composed of tiny “dunes” along with a palette of fresh and dynamic colors – red, blue, pink, orange and white – echoed on the dials hour- markers.
 
The entirely polished case creates a striking contrast that highlights the original shape of the bezel with its satin-brushed surface and its stamped numerals.
The glowingly feminine touch may be further accentuated by an optional gemset bezel.

 The three large 6, 9 and 12 o'clock numerals with their exclusive design and their rounded contours exquisitely punctuate the hours on the finely gridwork-pattern dials. On the technical side, this supersporty model displays all the qualities one would expect from a Breitling instrument for professionals, including a SuperQuartz™ movement ten times more accurate than standard quartz and chronometer certified by the COSC (Swiss Official Chronometer Testing Institute), a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal glareproofed on both sides, a screw-locked crown and a sturdy steel case water-resistant to 500 meters (1,650 ft) – a unique feat for a ladies' watch.
