Dem Himmel so nah – Seiko Prospex Sky Special Vintage Edition


PRESSEMELDUNG

Im Sommer 2014 führte Seiko die legendäre Prospex-Serie in den internationalen Markt ein. Sie unterteilt sich in die Kollektionsreihen Land, Sea, Sky und bietet mit unterschiedlichen Automatik-, Kinetic- und Quarzkalibern nicht nur Abwechslung, sondern auch die Technik zur passenden Themenreihe und Outdoor-Aktivität.

Zwei der neuen Sky-Modelle sind die Prospex Sky Special Edition Vintage mit dem erprobten Automatikkaliber 4R35, das über einen Sekundenstopp und Handaufzug verfügt. Wenn Sie die Krone ziehen, werden die Unruh und der Sekundenzeiger angehalten, sodass sich die Zeit sekundengenau einstellen lässt. Der von Seiko erfundene Magische Hebel, der direkt an den Schaft der Schwungmasse angepasst ist, gewährleistet eine maximale Effizienz beim Aufzug der Hauptfeder, indem er jede Drehbewegung der Schwungmasse unabhängig von der Drehrichtung zum Aufzug nutzt.

Die bei 4 Uhr platzierte Krone und die geschwungenen Bandanstöße lassen die Uhr angenehm am Handgelenk liegen. Gebürstete und polierte Oberflächen schmücken die Gehäuse aus Edelstahl oder Edelstahl mit Goldauflage. Große LumiBrite-Indizes und das klar gestaltete Zifferblatt, das nur von der Datumsanzeige unterbrochen wird,  gewährleisten eine optimale Ablesbarkeit. Die einseitig drehbare Lünette mit Kompassring, die Farbwahl der Zifferblätter und die braunen Lederbänder verleihen den Modellen den typischen Vintage-Look.

MIDO – MULTIFORT 80th Anniversary GMT Edition















MIDOMULTIFORT 80th Anniversary GMT Edition NEW


An invitation to travel in celebration of the Multifort’s 80th anniversary 

In 2014, Mido is celebrating the 80th anniversary of the Multifort collection that has enjoyed one of the longest production runs in the history of Swiss watchmaking. In honour of this exceptional longevity, the brand is launching the Multifort 80th Anniversary GMT Edition, a characterful timepiece equipped with a second time zone. The model has a classic and timeless elegance that will appeal to frequent travellers and fine watchmaking enthusiasts alike. The silver dial, decorated with vertical Geneva stripes, displays around its edge the names of cities representing the world’s 24 time zones. The Multifort 80th Anniversary GMT Edition is a true invitation to travel.

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





























Launched in 1934, just two years after the completion of the Sydney Harbour Bridge, the Multifort collection shares some remarkable characteristics with the famous structure: a perfect balance between function and aesthetics. A truth that has stood the test of time, as this year Mido celebrates the 80th anniversary of Multifort production, making this one of the longest-produced collections in the history of Swiss watchmaking.

The new Multifort 80th Anniversary GMT Edition will find a home on the wrist of every frequent traveller who appreciates Swiss watchmaking expertise, as this supremely elegant model is endowed with a second time zone. A moving, compartmentalized flange displays the names of cities representing the world's 24 time zones. The second time zone (T2) is set using the screw-in crown at 2 o’clock. The small arrow-shaped hand, activated with the screw-in crown at 4 o’clock, shows the time in the T2 time zone following a 24-hour graduated scale. These two crowns without doubt mark the unique design and resolutely masculine character of this GMT Edition.

A true invitation to travel, the Multifort 80th Anniversary GMT Edition has many attractive features. With a 42 mm diameter, its rose PVD-treated steel case houses a dial subtly decorated with vertical Geneva stripes. They evoke the suspender cables of the Sydney Harbour Bridge, a symbol of architectural modernity in the early 1930s. The touches of blued steel on the dial lend an extra touch of sophistication to this model. The dial is protected by an anti-reflective sapphire crystal, treated on both sides and offering perfect readability. The aperture at 3 o’clock displays the date.

Both robust and chic, the GMT Edition will appeal to all fine watchmaking enthusiasts with its transparent case back through which the finely decorated automatic movement can be admired, along with an oscillating weight decorated with Geneva stripes and the Mido logo. The Multifort 80th Anniversary GMT Edition is water-resistant up to a pressure of 10 bar (100 m / 330 ft) and has a brown calf leather strap fitted with a folding clasp in rose PVD-treated stainless steel.

The model is also available with a stainless steel case and bracelet.
