In 130 years, Breitling has asserted itself as the specialist of chronographs and instruments for professionals. But this expertise also enables it to create watches reflecting the same performance-oriented spirit, such as the Galactic. This uber-sporty, versatile and sophisticated model is intended for all those whose activities do not necessarily require chronograph functions, but who are nonetheless looking for a watch that is at once sturdy, accurate and reliable. After a 41 mm selfwinding version and two 36 and 32 mm ladies’ models, the collection is now enriched with a new large-sized watch. In adopting a 44 mm diameter, the Galactic has strengthened its technical and masculine appeal.

The large hands and hour-markers enhanced with a luminescent coating guarantee excellent readability, reinforced by the sapphire crystal glareproofed on both sides.

It houses a selfwinding movement chronometer-certified by the COSC (Swiss Official Chronometer Testing Institute), the highest benchmark in terms of reliability and precision. The new Galactic 44 is available with a black, blue or silver dial, fitted with a choice of steel bracelet or a strap in leather, crocodile leather, rubber or military-type fabric.

RJ-Romain Jerome – GENERATIONAL ICONS Batman-DNA "Dark Knight" 75th Anniversary Limited Edition NEW

RJ-Romain Jerome Batman-DNA: Business by Day, Hero by Night!

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

RJ-Romain Jerome joins forces with Warner Bros. Consumer Products, on behalf of DC Entertainment, to celebrate the 75th Anniversary of DC Comics’ Batman. Introducing a new legend to its Collaborations collection, RJ-Romain Jerome pays tribute to Gotham City’s Super Hero with a timepiece inspired by the Dark Knight: the Batman-DNA.

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

Gotham City’s vigilante, Batman has become an international cultural icon characterized by his strength, intellect and will to fight evil. Batman is an enigmatic Super Hero who does not sport any super powers but relies on science, technology and his superior intellect to assuage his war against crime. First appearing in the comic book Detective Comics #27 featuring artwork by artist Bob Kane and a script by Bill Finger, Batman has evolved throughout the years, forging his double identity along the way.

RJ-Romain Jerome and Warner Bros. Consumer Products introduce the watch brand’s first Super Hero timepiece: the Batman-DNA. This exciting new collaboration puts forth one of today’s most recognized Super Heroes who is only human. It is this aspect of Batman’s personality that attracted Manuel Emch, CEO of RJ Watches: “I have always been a fan of Batman, his mysterious character and double identity is an exhaustible source of inspiration. He represents a duality between good and evil in a contemporary world.”

Inspired by Batman’s heroic personality, the aesthetics of the timepiece are an acknowledgment to the fantastic world that has been built around his character. Housed in a 46 mm black PVD-coated steel case, the black bezel has been machine-worked to showcase the bold and singular facets, recalling the angular contours of the “Batmobile.”

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

The dial of the Batman-DNA mirrors the Gotham City Super Hero’s personality – raw, yet sophisticated. An eye-catching Batman emblem applique, lacquered in black, is placed at the center of the dial. The legendary “Bat-Signal”, shines at night thanks to an engraving, filled with black Superluminova, which outlines the hero’s famous symbol. The rest of the dial has undergone RJ-Romain Jerome’s special “rough” finish, giving the watch a dark and edgy look.

The RJ logo applique is placed at 12 o’clock, allowing each detail of the dial to stand out and amaze the wearer each time he looks at the watch. A black Hornback crocodile strap has also been added to the timepiece, resembling Batman’s avant-garde leather gear.

Backes & Strauss – new Royal ASHOKA® Collection

Backes & Strauss – Royal ASHOKA® Empress NEW

Masters of Diamonds, Backes & Strauss unveils the Royal ASHOKA® Collection, a new line of one-of-a-kind diamond watches bringing William Goldberg’s exceptional ASHOKA® diamonds to the world of haute horlogerie.

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

The inaugural piece from the collection which will be unveiled during the World Presentation of Haute Horlogerie (taking place in Japan from October 28 - 31) is set with no fewer than 92 ASHOKA® cut diamonds, 131 Ideal Cut diamonds and two baguette cut diamonds - making a total of 225 diamonds, one for every year that Backes & Strauss, the world's oldest diamond company, has been in existence. The total weight of diamonds used in the watch amounts to 26.21 carats.

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

Visitors will be truly dazzled by this unique timepiece from Masters of Diamonds Backes & Strauss, which draws its inspiration from the legendary Ashoka the Great, benevolent ruler of India's Maurya dynasty during the third century BC.

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

From the depths of the Hindu Kush to the jungles of Bengal, Ashoka presided over an impressive empire - but, unlike many of his peers, he ruled with love, respect and compassion for his subjects having decided to turn his back on war and adopt Buddhism as his way of life. He spread the doctrine throughout Asia, establishing monuments to Gautama Buddha.

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

Many hundreds of years after his death in 232 BC, Ashoka's name was adopted for a 41.37 carat, D colour, internally flawless diamond which was pulled from an Indian mine and cut by an unknown craftsman of unrivalled skill. Such is its beauty, it has been credited with the ability to abolish sorrow and eradicate pain. Inspired by the mystical 'Ashoka Diamond', William Goldberg, the legendary Manhattan diamond company, created an entirely new, unique and original cut called the 'ASHOKA®' that was granted its very own patent.

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

An elongated, antique cushion cut that captures light and disperses it with a fiery brilliance, the ASHOKA® can only be executed using diamonds that meet the Goldberg family's exacting specifications -  and only Goldberg master craftsmen have the skill, experience and expertise to bring to life the ASHOKA® cut which has 62 displayed facets and rounded corners.

“We are thrilled to be partnering with Backes & Strauss for the launch of the Royal ASHOKA® watch collection. The beauty of our diamonds will be accentuated in the magnificent Backes & Strauss timepieces and we are very excited with the launch in Japan as demand for ASHOKA® diamonds grows internationally,” says Saul Goldberg, CEO, William Goldberg.

Combining a brilliance for horology and a passion for diamonds, Backes & Strauss is the ultimate diamond watch company. Adding a line of unique timepieces using William Goldberg’s ASHOKA® diamonds was the perfect addition to the world’s oldest diamond company’s Royal collection. “William Goldberg and Backes & Strauss both share a deep appreciation for handcrafted precision and challenging their craftsmen at the highest level. The result of this meeting of masters is a collection of timepieces so intricate they are masterpieces inside and out,” comments Vartkess Knadjian, CEO, Backes & Strauss.

Racing driver Ollie Millroy joins the JEANRICHARD family at full throttle

JEANRICHARD will now partner with the English racing driver and speed enthusiast Ollie Millroy.

“It is an honor to be selected as a Friend of the Brand JEANRICHARD and to be able to carry the mutual values into the world of international motorsport. As it's a sport that essentially revolves around racing against the clock, it's a perfect arena to promote a modern, stylish watch brand such as JEANRICHARD and I really look forward to wearing my new Aeroscope three hands at my next races in Asia and beyond", said Ollie Millroy.

Ollie Millroy’s experience in racing started in his early years on the kart circuit, where he had his first involvement with the exciting world of “speed”. When he later in life progressed into international karting, he followed a remarkable path and won several championships, such as the British ICA 2006 and the Italian Winter Cup, also in 2006. He was then selected as a scholarship driver for BMW Motorsport and in 2012, his professional career led him into GT racing, where he was signed up by legendary sportscar team and Le Mans 24hr winners, Ecurie Ecosse.

The partnership between Ollie Millroy and JEANRICHARD is based upon the mutual principles as well as the common Philosophy of Life to experience a new journey every day.

The driver faces challenges of life on a daily basis, by constantly embarking upon ambitious pursuits to excel on the racing track. JEANRICHARD creates timepieces for people just like him – authentic everyday heroes who are aware of every moment in life and live it to the fullest.

“It is fantastic to have such a young spirit, being part of the JEANRICHARD team.

This attitude is incorporated with the dynamic and immaculate design of the watch, while sharing the reliable attributes and accuracy, found in all JEANRICHARD timepieces.”

Ollie Millroy will be sporting a JEANRICHARD Aeroscope three hands with a titanium case. Just like a flight instrument, the Aeroscope 3 Hands watch features optimum reading of its displays even in semi-darkness. The stick indexes and Arabic numerals made out of Billight, a mixture of resin and Superluminova that gives a lucid effect to the entire index, and not just to its upper surface. The bezel has a minute-circle marked out with 5-minute gradations, enabling the wearer to read the time at a glance.

The JEANRICHARD Aeroscope three hands is available with different dial treatments in black, white, grey, green and dark blue with a grainy finish. As a final detail, it features a rubber strap fitted with a folding buckle.
