The boldest, most exciting new watches from the world's biggest watch fair

 The boldest, most exciting new watches from the world's biggest watch fair

From A. Lange & Sohne to Zenith, major players in the Swiss watch industry have just launched new high quality replica watches. This is the first glance.

Watches & Wonders, the world's largest watch trade show, has arrived, bringing the hottest new products of the top luxury watchmakers this year.

So far, this year will be the year many brands revisit established classics or new heroes. Just before the fashion shows, which were open to journalists and retailers on Monday, several brands released numerous debuts, many of them familiar and memorable designs. A. Lange & Söhne revisits its only sports watch, the Odysseus, and equips it with its first in-house automatic movement. Cartier has re-rendered its Tank Normale, including some intricate skeletonized versions. Now that it has set a series of world records for Bulgari's Octo Finissimo, it decided to focus on its Octo Roma collection and showed two particularly advanced tourbillon models. Van Cleef & Arpels has wowed the crowds at last year's show with another round of extraordinary table clocks that will please the very wealthy without access to museum-worthy pieces worth over $1 million client.

Of course, there will be more. While Patek Philippe released images of the revamped Calatrava, other versions of it (along with Rolex's long-awaited new timepiece) will be shared later Monday morning. Now, let's take a look at what's in store for watch lovers this year.

Chopard
Chopard LUC 1963 Heritage Chronograph
Hand-wound chronographs are prized by collectors, and Chopard's contribution to this elite genre, a 25-piece limited edition Hallmark of Geneva-certified flyback chronograph, is likely to disappear soon. The LUC 1963 Heritage Chronograph features a minimalist, non-date dial with a case in Lucent Steel, Chopard's proprietary steel alloy made from 80% recycled elements. Vintage details include automotive dashboard-style hour markers from 05-60 for the minutes and seconds, as well as mushroom-shaped pushers and an eco-green dial with matching stitching on the strap. Modern technology allows for a sapphire case back through which one can admire the beautifully decorated movement which is the star of the show (sapphire crystals were not yet available in the 60s). Chopard hand-wound flyback chronograph movement LUC 03.07-L is chronometer-certified and has a power reserve of 60 hours. Finishes include rhodium-plated bridges, yokes, lever and column wheels, circular guilloché on the base, straight guilloché on the chronograph components and Côtes de Genève motifs on the bridges.replica Astronomia watches

Case Material: Lucent Steel
Power reserve: 60 hours

Mille Miglia Classic Chronograph
Chopard loves its heritage, and the annual Mille Miglia Collector's Edition is one of its most enduring events. Chopard has been timing the scenic race from Brescia to Rome since 1988, and Co-President Karl Friedrich Schaefer has personally participated in the race every year since, covering more than 30,000 miles. This year's version, the 36th in the annual collection, is slightly smaller than the others at 40.5mm, which makes it more wearable (perfect for ladies' wrists!).

The case, bezel and crown are made from Lucent steel, a Chopard alloy that is said to be 50% harder than conventional steel. Available in four dial colors to match the paint and interior of classic cars: Verde Chiaro (light green) and Rosso Amarena (cherry red), Nero Corsa (racing black) and the two-tone steel and gold model Grigio-Blue (gray blue). A tachymeter scale is essential for calculating speed and distance, while a generous amount of Class XI Super-LumiNova aids in navigating after dark. The slim bezel maximizes the depth of the dial.

Twin barrels drive the flagship caliber LUC 96.40-L, ensuring a 65-hour power reserve. The 'monte rose pink' dial is named after the second highest mountain in the Swiss Alps and its characteristic pink shimmer. It is similar to the salmon color that is very popular among high-end sports watches at present. The finish is inspired by the iris of an eagle. It can be admired on a larger flat surface than the previous model because the bezel on this model is trimmed back.
