Jaquet Droz presents The Butterfly Journey

The fruit of the Atelier d’Art’s unique replica watches for sale expertise, twin sets of Petite Heure Minute models are dedicated to the elegance of the butterfly, that fragile, romantic creature embodying the beauty of time.

An angel passes, drawn along by a butterfly, and time seems to hold its breath in a moment of pure poetry. This motif, discovered in an old book devoted to Jaquet Droz, has been depicted just once before, in the Age of Enlightenment, by one of the legendary automata created by Pierre Jaquet-Droz. In 2013, it was given pride of place on “The Loving Butterfly” a watch paying tribute to putti – sculptures of children used to decorate some of Italian architecture’s most beautiful buildings as well as the cultural treasures of Renaissance and Baroque Europe.

This year, the butterfly returns to the center of the cheap Breitling replica watchmaking stage, taking a form that is unprecedented and spectacular in equal measure: two sets of Petite Heure Minute models comprising eight pieces each are like the chapters of a horological novel presented in its entirety. The subject of the novel is ephemerality, with eight scenes describing a butterfly’s flight, thus reviving the brand’s passion for 18th century naturalism.

Following this narrative thread – the beauty of nature, its fragility and the transitory quality of each moment – the Jaquet Droz artisans dreamt up two complementary stories.

The dials are as blank pages, given over to the artistic imagination of painters and engravers. Within a 43 mm-diameter red gold case, on the lower part of the dial, a spray of feijoa flowers features a butterfly placed at random and sculpted by hand in a red gold to contrast with its intensely blue champlevé wings. This poetically tropical scene echoes the one portrayed in a white gold case of the same size but set with 264 diamonds extending right up to the lugs. Here, we have an invitation to journey through Asia, where a cheap replica watches butterfly in white gold flutters between pale pink peonies, the flower symbolizing love. The relief of the butterflies, their champlevé enameled wings, the fine patina on their slender bodies, the striking colors of the floral decor – every minute detail contributes to the arresting beauty of the scene. A decorative challenge achieved through a combination of the brand’s expertise and the virtuosity of the craftsman’s hand, the Butterfly Journey timepieces are also a testament to the attention Jaquet Droz never fails to pay to the splendor inherent in the most fleeting instants and the fugitive magic of nature, its creatures and plants.

Monochrome Monday: The HYT H3 Debuts At Baselworld 2015

Back in 2012, HYT introduced a replica watches sale that was a real blast in the world of watchmaking, by integrating a liquid directly into the movement and using it as an instrument to indicate time. One year after this first attempt named HYT H1, the company came back with a new watch, even more exiting and technically advanced, called the HYT H2. On the Monochrome-Watches blog, Brice Goulard introduces us to the successor to both of these timepieces: the HYT H3, which is even more complicated. Is it still horology?

For this new edition, the team at HYT Watches is still working closely with one of the most renowned manufacturers, APRP. The HYT H3 is, of course, again using the concept of a fluidic indication of the time. However, while the H1 & H2 are based on a circular tube with a retrograde fluid, the new HYT H3 comes with a brand new architecture called ‘fluid portrayal of time.’ The brand wanted to have a linear indication that results in a rectangular design, with the bellows at opposite ends.

Once the idea of having the fluid on the top and in a linear way was decided, the rest of the design comes in a natural (but highly complicated) way. The cheap replica watches thus follows this linear shape with a case measuring 62 mm x 41 mm. It is made of charcoal gray PVD-coated titanium and platinum with a micro-blasted, satin finish. The sides are shaped like a drop, meaning that the top is substantially curved. This curved shape, combined with a reasonable width of 41 mm and screwed offset lugs, should be easier to wear than the 49 mm of the HYT H1, for example.

HYT-H3-baselworld-2015-2

Even if this new shape is quite impressive, the piece de resistance of the HYT H3 is the movement and its totally crazy mechanics. The upper part of the dial is occupied by the two bellows/pistons that drive the fluids. The first, on the left, drives the progression of the fluid and therefore the time display. Its counterpart, on the right, compensates for this progression in the capillary. The glass tube, operating in a vacuum, still contains two fluids: the first (water-based) yellow fluid serves to tell the time; the second (viscous-based) translucent fluid works in opposition. As in the HYT H1 & H2, the liquid works like a retrograde indication, meaning that when it reaches the end of the tube, it goes back in a few seconds to its original place to start its journey again.

HYT-H3-baselworld-2015-5

The fluid however here is made to indicate only six hours. As you can see, below the glass tube sits a time scale graduated from 0 to 5. This scale is, in fact, a rotating dial with four faces that rotate at the same time the liquid goes back to its original position, in order to be ready for next six hours. Because this cube scale has 4 faces, it’s a 24-hour indicator. This bar is set via a push-button on the left side of the best IWC replica watches. With each press, the central time display bar turns on itself by one quarter of a turn. The exact hours and minutes are classically adjusted by the crown.

The minutes are located on the right side of the dial and are also displayed in a linear way, to ensure the technical and stylistic cohesion of the HYT H3. It’s a twin articulated arm, which sweeps across a graduated rule. At its end, the retrograde mechanism instantaneously returns to its starting point. The rest of the dial is occupied by the regulating organ, the crown position indicator and a crazy load of mechanical sweetness (gears, levers and wheels). As in the HYT H2, the mechanics are parts of the watch and fully exposed.

The back reveals two barrels for a 170-hour power reserve (approximately seven days) and a power-reserve indicator. The movement is finished with micro-blasted, charcoal gray PVD-coated titanium bridges with titanium-colored, satin-finished accents, rhodium-plated bellows, and all the respect due to haute horlogerie.

HYT-H3-baselworld-2015-7

This first edition of the HYT H3 is, for the moment, only available in a combination of charcoal gray PVD-coated titanium and platinum with a black alligator leather strap. It will be produced in a limited run of 25 new replica watches and available from September 2015. The price for this amazing piece of modern horology: 280,000 Swiss Francs.

Breguet – Reine de Naples haute joaillerie 8909

At the heart of the Reine de Naples collection, the reference 8909 made its appearance to much comment in the press. Indeed, this timepiece in such an iconic shape wore an exquisite bracelet set with diamonds and sapphires. Furthermore the dial displayed a replica watches sale studied mix of bluish natural mother-of-pearl, white gold and diamonds.

The combination was highlighted by baguette diamonds set into the bezel and caseband. This year, the Breguet company’s artisans decided to create a version of this outstanding piece in rose gold. While the first model evoked the immaculate snows of the North, this version calls to mind the warm tones of the East. The clarity of the diamonds on the bezel and caseband are as stunning as ever, while the sapphires on the bracelet have given way to flaming red rubies. In this Cartier fake watches for men, the dial is more contrasted, with the crimson glow of the rubies standing out against Tahitian mother-of-pearl. Fitted with a self-winding movement, this timepiece shows the hours and minutes on a subdial in silvered gold set with diamonds. The aperture for the moon can be seen at 12 o’clock with the power-reserve indicator.

The diamonds in this jewellery swiss replica watches total around 16 cts.

Hublot – Big Bang Ferrari Carbon King Gold and Big Bang Ferrari Carbon Titanium

By combining two components which cannot be mixed – carbon and metal – Hublot is launching an exclusive bezel with a heterogeneous look. This is the first time a cheap replica watches has featured this original composite with its innovative style. Following on from Magic Gold – Hublot’s scratch-resistant 18K gold watch – the Ferrari collection is now benefitting from the best solutions from Hublot’s R&D department. The two brands share the same vision in terms of their constant pursuit of performance, innovation and precursor materials.

Big Bang Ferrari Carbon King Gold

The Big Bang Ferrari Carbon is the embodiment of exclusivity and sporting prowess, offering a fusion of high-quality and high-tech materials. It took the R&D department six months to structure the layers of materials which form the bi-material bezel and to obtain a regular incrustation of the metal in the carbon. The result is a carbon bezel incrusted with gold, or titanium, which reinforces the high-tech spirit of the Big Bang model. The properties of the composite’s materials complement each other in a fusion which marries beauty and innovation.

The case – made from titanium or an exclusive King Gold alloy – features a special finish: a brilliant, micro-blasted coating for extra hardness and a silky metallic-effect appearance. The case middle incorporates elongated push-buttons, fixed to a Panerai replica watches rotating staff like the controls on a car. The dial features an appliqué of the iconic prancing horse at 9 o’clock, while the minute counter and date window appear at 3 o’clock in the colours of the Ferrari shield.

The Big Bang Ferrari Carbon is fitted with a Unico manufacture movement, available for the first time in an All Black version. Its black PVD-coated main plate, bridges and oscillating weight are visible through the dial and sapphire back.

Each timepiece is paired with a “One click” leather strap, sewn onto grey rubber, featuring the signature stitching on Ferrari’s upholstery. The titanium version with a replica watches uk black strap is available as a 1000-piece limited edition; the King Gold version with a brown strap is available as a 500-piece limited edition.

An exclusive rose gold version, available with or without a row of diamonds, sports a mother-of-pearl dial with diamond indexes or inlaid Roman numerals whose pink hands harmoniously match the case.

Breguet – Tradition Chronographe Indépendant 7077

The chronograph occupies a choice position in replica watchmaking as a complication in its own right. Measuring elapsed times provides immediate visualisation of the desired function, but making it work is an additional mechanical challenge, because starting a chronograph disturbs the main gear trains. To alleviate this problem, Breguet has fitted its new Tradition Chronographe Indépendant 7077 model with two independent trains.

The first is the going train for the hours and minutes, regulated by a 3Hz balance and having a power reserve of 50 hours. For the chronograph, the second transmission has a 5Hz frequency to ensure more precise readings, in harmony with the one devoted to measuring the passing of time.Breguet’s research into high frequencies shows that a higher rate of oscillations improves the stability of rate, since any disturbance is corrected more quickly. The two trains are entirely disconnected and the movement remains unaffected when the chronograph is started.

Normally, a second train implies a second barrel to provide the energy required by the chronograph. This approach nonetheless needs more space and above all means that the owner of the Swiss replica watches must wind up the chronograph barrel spring as well as the going barrel. With the Tradition Chronographe Indépendant 7077 model, the company’s technicians have introduced a new type of spring perfectly suited to the chronograph function. The energy required to drive the chronograph is provided by the user when operating the reset-to-zero function. This energy is stored in a flexed blade spring. The power reserve of this historical type of spring amounts to no more than 20 minutes, but this is ideal for measuring short elapsed times. The system enables the user to start the chronograph instantly, without worrying about the energy available, because it will always be at its maximum. To ensure that the spring is fully flexed, Breguet has designed a shape that guarantees enough elasticity to provide extra energy when arming the spring.

The application of the blade spring principle by Breguet’s Panerai replica watchmakers has given rise to a number of innovations. A non-concentric going train has been associated with the blade spring so as to even out the torque and achieve constant amplitude and rate of the chronograph. A patent has been filed for the entire spring and train assembly. Instead of following its usual curve, the shape of the train has been calculated to transmit constant force to the chronograph. In addition, the reference 7077 is fitted with a patented chronograph balance-wheel in titanium ensuring perfect symmetry with the movement balance-wheel. The use of a heavier material for the balance-wheel would have meant making it smaller. The overall appearance would be affected, especially since one of the features of the Tradition collection is to make the main parts of the movement visible on the baseplate. The two balance-wheels are thus the same size, despite their different frequencies, and their position is in tune with aesthetic considerations.

The chronograph function of this Tradition model is controlled by two pushers that are screwed in to keep out water. Contrary to customary chronographs, one pusher is devoted to starting the measurement, while the other stops and resets the chronograph to zero. It is this zeroing action that flexes and arms the blade spring, thus preparing the chronograph for a new measurement. The titanium balance-wheel is also flanked by two brakes. The first, working off a cam, frees the balance-wheel when the chronograph is started and then holds it when the chronograph is stopped. In this way the balance-wheel is always in the ideal position and instantly reaches its proper amplitude. This innovative mechanism is protected by patent.

Among the features that recall the historical roots of the Tradition collection are the patented pare-chute anti-shock devices as well as the chronograph control which recalls that of the reference 4009 double-second observation timer sold by Breguet on January 6th 1825.

In keeping with the rules, the style of this Breguet Tradition Chronographe Indépendant 7077 is noted for its symmetry. The engine-turned dial in silvered gold showing the hours and minutes is offset at 12 o’clock, while the chronograph hand is fixed in the centre of the replica watches for sale. The chronograph-activation indicator is at 6 o’clock. Directly opposite each other at 2 o’clock and 10 o’clock two retrograde hands respectively indicate the power reserve of the watch and the chronograph minutes, while the two balance-wheels beat side by side at 4 o’clock and 8 o’clock. This hand-wound timepiece is water-resistant to 3 bar (30m) and is fitted with a leather strap.
