Enable Flight Mode On The Wrist: Oris Flight Time Meter

18. August 2020Uncategorized

The flight watch comes from the pilot’s need to read time. In order to complete the task within a certain time, the role of the timing tool is very important. In the early pocket watch era, it was really difficult for the cockpit to control the flight instruments and pull out the timer from the arms. It also caused trouble for pilots; the appearance of wristwatches resolved the inconvenience of pilots when reading. It also makes the flight watch a classic type of modern timepiece. The most prominent feature of the flight timepiece is nothing more than its huge crown, which is also the constant highlight of Oris since the first Big Crown watch was launched in 1938.

Big Crown ProPilot calendar week watch stainless steel case, diameter 45 mm, hour, minute, second, date, day of the week, luminous hands and time stamp, Oris 752 automatic movement, 38 hours power reserve, sapphire crystal glass, Transparent back cover, waterproof 100 meters, alligator leather embossed leather strap / textile strap / stainless steel chain strap, and brown leather strap.

   There are several specific elements in the watch of the flying series: the simple design of the dial, the clear and easy to read Arabic numerals and the large crown. This is not the only flight model owned by Oris, but the Big Crown ProPilot Day Date watch does present the characteristics of a flight watch in a low-key way; such a low-key makes the watch more practical when the wearer stares at the dial At the same time, you will find that the amount of time information is just as much as you need daily.

   Oris’ first BigCrown series flight watch was launched in 1938 and is still an important series in the four major areas of the brand’s four fields of culture, diving, racing and flying. The name ‘BigCrown’ is of course its particularly enlarged crown, and this design is for the pilot to adjust the time without taking off his gloves; as mentioned above, this is a common design for flight watches. However, Oris’ BigCrown is a bit different. The coin pattern above is presented at an oblique angle, just like the jet engine turbine; the same inspiration is more obvious when applied to the bezel, which is very bright under the brushed stainless steel case. In addition to the integration of flying elements in the two details, it also highlights the exquisiteness of the Oris watch, which still retains its characteristics in a simple style. The dial design of this DayDate watch is also the simplest in the brand’s BigCrownProPilot series. The junior pin, plus the date and day indication, together with the legible Arabic numerals, is definitely a practical watch for everyday wear. Some brands of straps have also introduced a variety of different materials and colors. According to the design of the watch, whether it is matched with stainless steel chain strap, crocodile leather embossed leather strap or textile strap.

Air Racing V Limited Watch Black DLC stainless steel case, 45 mm diameter, hour, minute, second, date, day of the week, luminous hands and time stamp, Oris 752 self-winding movement, 38 hours power reserve, sapphire crystal , Special engraved back cover, waterproof 100 meters, textile strap, limited to 1000 pieces.

   Another Air Racing V limited edition watch launched at the end of 2015 has the same design, both the case, bezel and large crown are meticulous with Oris flight models. The stainless steel case with black DLC creates a completely different sports style from the Big Crown ProPilot date and week watch; the end of the second hand and the word ‘AIR RACING’ at 6 o’clock are expressed in red, lighting up the overall vision in an all-black style effect. This series of watches commemorates the flying achievements of the brand ambassador Don Vito Wyprächtiger, including the 2013 National Championship of Flying Championships, and the 2014 Scarlet Screamer aircraft to win the second place.

The back of the Air Racing Edition V is engraved with the Scarlet Screamer airplane driven by Oris brand ambassador Don Vito Wyprächtiger.

   The limited edition of 1,000 Air Racing Edition V and Big Crown ProPilot Day Date watches are equipped with Cal. 752 self-winding movement with a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour; of which Air Racing Edition V is engraved with the Scarlet Screamer aircraft pattern on the back cover. Big Crown ProPilot Day Date shows the movement with a see-through back cover and Oris’ famous two-way winding red automatic disk. When the wearer adjusts the time through the screw-in crown, the movement’s stop-second device can improve the accuracy of proofreading.

   It is also a flying watch. The different style of the OrisBC3 series watch is even more conspicuous. This series was launched for the first time in early 1999, and it has been 6 years since the most recent change, and finally this year finally released a new work again. The new BC3Advanced date and week watch has a unique appearance design. Compared with other brand flight series models, the case and the lug are more closely connected; the PVD coating or stainless steel case is used, and the dial is in a calm dark gray and blue. The color is unobtrusive, and the textile strap with the same color tone has unique flavor. Both timepieces have a screw-in crown design, but the design of the texture is different from that of BigCrown, and the glossy polished texture also corresponds to the matte case; the most characteristic is of course the shock-proof covering on both sides The device provides perfect protection for the most vulnerable parts of the watch’s outer layer.

BC3 Advanced watch stainless steel case, 42 mm diameter, hours, minutes, seconds, date, day of the week, luminous coated hands and time stamp, Oris 735 automatic movement, 38 hours power reserve, sapphire crystal glass, transparent Back cover, waterproof 100 meters, textile strap.

   In order to meet the basic time display and easy adjustment characteristics, in fact, flying watches are flying in the field of aviation timing in their own style. In addition to providing time information, these three Oris timepieces are also very ingenious in design; with a variety of straps, they enrich the choice of watch lovers.

Introduction To Athens Blue Wave Observatory Limited Watch

12. August 2020Uncategorized

 This Blue Wave limited watch, equipped with the UN-26 movement, is a rare blue-steel movement. In order to make such a deep blue ocean, all movement parts must be burned with a complicated electrolytic process and high temperature over 300 ℃. In addition, because the blue-tempered parts will increase a little thickness, in order to avoid affecting the stability of the operation, all the movement structure must be redesigned or calculated and modified. Blue treatment, the effort behind it is far more than most people understand. The Athens watch not only presents the complexity and life of the movement through superb polishing and watchmaking techniques, but also embodies the rare and lively atmosphere with colors.

 In the design of the faceplate, Athens Ulysse Nardin even exerts its unique artistic aesthetics, integrates the marine elements that symbolize the spirit of the brand, and uses irregular marine ripples to interpret the outstanding achievements of Athens Watch in the Marine Observatory. The Athens Maritime Observatory Clock, known for its precision performance, can be calculated to the difference of half a second. It has won a gold medal at the Paris Universal Exposition in 1878. It has passed the severe environmental test in various extreme temperatures and laid the Athens watch in the navigation watch field With its status as a giant, more than 50 countries around the world have designated Athens’s marine observatory timepieces as professional equipment for the naval fleet. In terms of performance design, there is a power reserve display at twelve o’clock, following the straight line configuration of the Athens Navigation Observatory clock used on ships a hundred years ago. The word ‘1846’ on the plate is the year when the Athenian watch was founded. It has a strong originality and is very memorable. It outlines the classic elements and spirit of the Athenian watch.
 The see-through case back reveals the clever movement of the blue-steel movement. The 41 mm case, coin-shaped bezel, luminous embossed hour markers, independent numbering, water resistance to 100 meters, sapphire crystal glass, can be used with a leather strap or aquamarine Rubber band. The Athens Blue Wave, which combines pragmatism, technological innovation, artistic design, and traditional craft values, sets a new paradigm for today’s watches. Blue Wave is available in two materials, including a limited edition of 350 in 18K rose gold (equipped with a 22K rose gold marine corrugated automatic plate) and a stainless steel limited edition of 1846 (equipped with a blue steel automatic plate).

Approaching Perpetual Calendar Watches And Feeling The Power Of Classics

9. August 2020Uncategorized

Perpetual calendar watches are not ‘every year’, but they can be guaranteed without manual adjustment by the owner during more than 90 years of operation. The accurate display of nearly a century is indeed an amazing achievement. There are numerous perpetual calendar watches, some of which are very powerful in function and some of which are beautiful in design. Let’s approach the perpetual calendar watch and feel the power of classics.

Calendar as proof

   Perpetual calendar watches are not only invented by only a few smart watchmakers, but gradually perfected after nearly three or four hundred years of repeated attempts. Today’s perpetual calendar watch boom has actually flourished since the mid-1980s, which can be clearly seen from auctions-before that, mainly larger pocket watches had perpetual calendar functions, and fewer watches For the perpetual calendar, Patek Philippe launched the 3450 automatic mechanical perpetual calendar at the Basel exhibition in 1981. People have seen the perpetual calendars come on the market since then, and then brands have launched their own perpetual calendars. So far, the perpetual calendars are more practical For example, the moon phase display, leap year display, etc. are added, and functions such as tourbillon and three questions are superimposed, and the technology has been greatly improved.

   Go deep into the movement and look at the general characteristics of the perpetual calendar: its movement is divided into two parts, one part is responsible for the ordinary timekeeping work of hours, minutes and seconds, and can be added timekeeping, three questions, tourbillon, etc. functional module. The other part is like a set of astronomical clocks. It is driven by a miniature satellite gear system. The whole system takes four years to complete one revolution. With the gears and levers in this system, the day of the week, date, year, and the corresponding big and small months and leap years are calculated and displayed continuously. Among them, the gear set in most perpetual calendar watches that instructs the month rotates once every 4 years, and each month correspondingly beats one space, which means that this gear set has 48 teeth. There is a disc on top of it. Months of different lengths of time on the disc have ‘tooth tips’ of different sizes, and it is they that drive the calendar to beat on time. The most typical representative of the above structure is Patek Philippe.

Athens Diver Perpetual Limited Edition technology breakthrough

Technical breakthrough

   From a technical perspective, there are several perpetual calendars that have to be mentioned. The Patek Philippe 5207 is equipped with a redesigned perpetual calendar device, which jumps quickly when changing dates, and can be completed in an instant, instead of the old perpetual calendar, which requires half an hour or several hours to move slowly to complete. IWC’s Portuguese uses a 4-digit year display, which even affected the launch of many perpetual calendars when it was launched, because this 4-digit display device is still a patent of IWC, and Gloss played a significant role as the inventor.

   In addition, the patent structure of Athens (Ulysse Nardin) allows the perpetual calendar to cross the 2100 mark for the first time, and more than that, no matter which date you can adjust the date before and after, this makes the perpetual calendar easy to use. Breakthrough is Zenith. With the high frequency of the El Primero movement, the perpetual calendar achieves high accuracy for the first time. In addition to the above models, each has gained something, and each has its own technical advantages.

Zenith Academy Tourbillon E1 Primero Quantieme Perpetual Tourbillon Perpetual Calendar Nice and easy to use

   The perpetual calendar is also good-looking and easy to use, and the innovation of the movement is worth discussing. Patek Philippe’s 5159 is a good-looking and easy-to-use model. It is the latest achievement in the development of its movement: based on the 324 movement, the monthly gear rotation cycle is now 12 months, and it also uses the same planetary gear as Audemars Piguet. , But its structure is exactly the opposite-3 long and 1 short to show the days of February. The layout of the dial is very clear. The month at 3 o’clock, the week at 9 o’clock, the bouncing calendar occupying most of the dial, and the leap year display at 12 o’clock, sweeping the perpetual calendar is the traditional defect of ‘presbyopia (eye) killer’. Unlike other perpetual calendar watches, it changes the day, month, and leap year dials into embedded digital windows. This treatment increases the space inside the dial and makes it more elegant and noble, while the hand-carved sunburst in the center of the dial The layers bloom, creating a subtle contrast between the dial and the calm silvery white tone. As a well-known classic model of Patek Philippe, the rear case back dust cover is a major feature. The appearance of 51.59 million calendars reinterprets this legendary series. The overall case is slightly larger and the dial has been redesigned. This watch is based on pure and elegant white, and the overall shape is undoubtedly more simple and modern. The Jaeger-LeCoultre Tourbillon Calendar is the first time the brand has combined a tourbillon with a perpetual calendar. At the same time, it has benefited from the silicon escapement to make this complex watch more accurate. The dial of this watch is divided into two parts. The upper part displays the hour, minute and perpetual calendar instructions, and the lower part is equipped with a tourbillon. The appearance of this watch is exquisite and elegant, with a white dial faintly showing a perpetual calendar form, which reflects a restrained, luxurious and gentle aesthetic style.

Classical appearance

   Breguet 5447, proud of its three-question perpetual calendar, is the most classic style in classic style. The table improves the sounding characteristics of the three questions, and specifically modifies the coordinated resonance between the two gongs, so that the sound of the on-time, quarter-hour and minute sounds is more pure and harmonious. In addition, Breguet doubled the striking power of the bell hammer and moved the holder of the gong into the case, so that the tone was particularly clear. The second major complication of this watch is the perpetual calendar, with a coordinated 39 mm diameter. The movement built into the platinum case is entirely handmade, and at 10:30 on the dial, there is an exquisite bounce mechanism that displays the month. When the year is over, the pointer at the end of the arc jumps back to the position of one month in an instant and restarts its new round of operation. The calendar is displayed on the small dial at 6 o’clock, and the fine radiation pattern engraved on it corresponds to one day. The clear dial is elegant and practical, a masterpiece of Breguet designers.

Another way to design

   In recent years, the Bulgari Group has invested heavily, and the perpetual calendar has many excellent works. The appearance design is also different from the traditional perpetual calendar models, which is another option. To commemorate the 125th anniversary of the brand, Bulgari launched the Sotirio Bulgari watch series named after the founder. Equipped with its own movement 465, this watch cleverly combines many functions: it has a skeleton automatic tourbillon and a perpetual calendar function, and its innovative dial is equipped with a coaxial double retrograde hand. The combination of black and white tones always shows the simplicity and chill of modern design in the best place. The watch follows this aesthetic ideal. The radiating arc of fan-shaped engraving on the black dial indicates the infinite expansion of space. The date, day of the week, month, and leap year are displayed with dial-back hands, instead of the usual disc display.

The Lange Datograph Perpetual Calendar is German

   The German perpetual calendar, which is completely different from the Swiss watch style, has its own characteristics. The three brands A. Lange & Söhne, Glashütte Original, and Chronoswiss are very representative.

   There are countless perpetual calendars, some of which are very powerful in function, and some of which are beautiful in design. Adding a small function to the classic perpetual calendar model can immediately make the watch look special and even become a popular object. Many watchmaking masters know this. For example, Franck Muller has continuously expanded its most complicated watch, A Eternitas, to make this set of perpetual calendar, tourbillon, moon phase, self-sounding, three questions Other complicated functions also have a two-second chronograph. In this way, the functions are continuously superimposed, making the already “fun” watches more fun. The A Eternitas 4 watch is the most complicated watch in the world. It has a tourbillon, big and small self-sounding, three questions, a permanent calendar and a chronograph. It also has a lot of practical functions.
