Porsche Design Monobloc Actuator Chronograph Watch
Porsche Design is one of those brands that are never afraid to do something. A quick look at their catalogues is enough to prove that they are not afraid of watch design. Their simple time and date models, such as the Datetimer of 1919, have an unusual case shape with hollowed ears. In 2017, the new Porsche designed Monobloc actuator chronograph was inspired by its predecessors and has one of the most unusual chronograph buttons we have ever seen.
Before we get started, we need a little history to understand and appreciate this watch. Porsche designed to make watches independently in 2014. Prior to this, they worked with companies such as IWC and Eterna to produce watches. In the early seventies, Porsche designed its first watch. This is a chronograph named Porsche Design Chronograph 1, which is the first all-black watch (later re-launched, we are hands-on). In 1980, Porsche designed another unusual chronograph called the Titan 1 chronograph, the first chronograph made of titanium. In addition to the use of titanium, it is equipped with a timing button integrated in the case. Like the Titan 1 chronograph, the new Monobloc Actuator chronograph also integrates the thruster into its case, but the implementation is slightly different and very special.wholesale Hublot MP COLLECTION MP-05 LAFERRARI replica Watches
First, the Porsche designed Monobloc actuator chronograph with a titanium case, 45.5 mm wide and 15.6 mm thick. This is by no means a small watch, but because of its titanium structure, it feels relatively light. And because it has integrated lugs, it wears less than the measurement results. However, as I mentioned, Porsche designed the Monobloc Actuator chronograph watch to have a considerable wrist presence.
Now, I mentioned that the chronograph button has been integrated into the case, which explains why the Monobloc Actuator chronograph has no obvious bezel. The bezel is also integrated into the case, and the form is engraved with a 24-hour scale for GMT complex functions (more on this later), and you will find that the bezel has a break from 3 o'clock to 9 o'clock. This is a rocker switch for operating the chronograph. Push it inward from the 3 o'clock direction toward the dial and the chronograph will start. Press it again to stop and push the bezel inward at the 9 o'clock position to reset. This is a single rocker switch, and its predecessor, the Titan 1 chronograph, uses two rocker switches.replica Porsche Design MONOBLOC ACTUATOR watches price
It's cool, it gives the watch a very clean side profile. But beyond that, it has some practical and functional benefits. As the rocker is associated with the internal movement, Porsche designed to better protect the movement from moisture and dust. In fact, the Monobloc Actuator chronograph is 100 meters waterproof and the chronograph can be activated underwater! According to Porsche design, the unique rocker activation is actually inspired by the valves that the new Porsche 911 RSR engine lifts and closes.
Since the Porsche designed Monobloc actuator chronograph is powered by the Valjoux 7754, the dial has an instantly recognizable Valjoux 12-9-6 arrangement. There are several different dial and case colors to choose from. This is a limited edition model called the Porsche Design Monobloc Actuator 24H Chronotimer with a titanium case and a carbon-coated dial.
The movement can be seen through the back of the display cabinet, and its price is very suitable for watches. There is a good Porsche design rotor, most of the bridges have fuselage, the screws are blue, and the parts look clean and neat.great Corum Admirals Cup replica Watches
Then, there are three non-limited models, one with a matt black dial, the other with a sunburst black dial, and the last with a sunburst blue dial. The watch with a matte black dial features a black titanium case, while the other two models with a sunburst dial finish feature a silver-titanium case and a glass bead blasted surface. This watch comes with a full titanium bracelet or a rubber strap. Both are comfortable to wear, but the titanium bracelet is definitely better in both. It may seem simple, but it complements this case very well and feels very reliable.
The dial is well-operated and easy to read. At 12 o'clock and 6 o'clock, you have a 30-minute counter and a 12-hour counter. The two sub-diales are slightly recessed into the dial, adding depth and making them easier to distinguish and at a glance. At 9 o'clock, there is a running second, represented by a small aperture, with a radial pattern of discs that tell you that the watch is running. The hour and minute hands are sword-shaped, thick and full of lume, while the GMT hands are represented by white hands that extend to the edge of the dial for easy 24-hour reading. The slender chronograph second hand also extends to the edge of the dial and can be easily read through the tachometer scale on the outside of the minute track.

If there is anything I don't like, it's the date window, but just because I don't usually like the date window of 4:30. If a date is absolutely necessary, I would rather position them at a more traditional location at 3 or 6 but that's just me.
In general, I will describe the Porsche Design Monobloc Actuator chronograph as a tool watch with interesting features and technical appearance. I don't think this is a cup of tea for everyone, but of course, readers who appreciate engineering and innovation will find this watch attractive on several levels. Personally, I would consider Porsche designing the Monobloc Actuator chronograph if I already have a more classic chronograph and would like to add another one to my collection. The Porsche Design Monobloc Actuator chronograph has a unique look, an innovative way to activate the chronograph, and is sturdy and resistant to nails. These are very attractive features for everyday chronographs.
