Inside the transparent sapphire crystal wall is an intricate skeleton dial design that mimics the engine compartment of the Bugatti Chiron supercar.

Jacob & Co.'s in-house JCAM37 hand-wound movement represents the iconic W16 motor that powers Bugatti, which precisely acts as a cylinder pump to power the watch. The Chiron Tourbillon Baguette Ruby features a transparent back that provides a second view of the inner workings of the mechanism, and features special engravings on the entire exterior of the case. Jacob & Co. blends function with luxury with this exclusive watch with a comfortable rubber strap and 18k rose gold deployment clasp set with 18 baguette rubies.

Jacob & Co. Astronomia Octopus Marching To Kill

It's not easy to say: Jacob & Co. Astronomia Octopus is very tempting. Jacob Arabo, a bold visionary who continues to revolutionize the world of jewelry and haute horology, his latest creations are inspired by the mysteries surrounding this bizarre cephalopod, while also showing the The magic behind the brand's impressive Astronomia tourbillon Cheap watches website.

You can think of this spectacular creation as an evolution of astronomy, with a stunning octopus sculpture at the heart of its composition for everyone to enjoy. Housed in a breathtaking monolithic sapphire case, this thing is a true work of art and a true expression of human ingenuity.

Originally designed for the brand's limited edition Astronomia Flawless, the transparent monolithic case creates the illusion that the complications inside the timepiece are suspended in mid-air. This unique effect is made even more captivating in the Astronomia Octopus, a handcrafted octopus sculpture that looks like it has Astronomia's signature gravitational three-axis tourbillon.

The Jacob & Co. Astronomia Octopus sapphire component took 37 weeks to make, of which none of the time required to engrave the timepiece and the octopus sculpture, nor the time required to finish the movement by hand. Curious about pricing information? So are we.

 

Jacob & Co. Astronomical Flawless Dilong

Astronomia Flawless Dragon subtly merges the complex worlds of fine watchmaking and art.

Jacob & Co. presents the astronomically flawless Dilong the world has never seen. "This is a masterpiece of the Astronomical Collection," said Jacob Arabo, founder of Jacob & Co. "I've always loved Ilona Andrews' famous quote, 'If the sky can dream, it will dream of dragons.' I've always dreamed of building the ultimate dragon with the Astronomia Flawless case to show, and we've done it."

The new Astronomia Flawless Imperial Dragon features a hand-engraved, hand-painted dragon snaking around the imposing Astronomia double-axis tourbillon movement. In a sense, when you look at the Astronomical Flawless Dilong, you don't know where to look. The incredible dragon is mesmerizing, as is the spinning and spinning tourbillon, the spinning hand-painted magnesium ball and the spinning 288 faceted Jacob-cut diamonds. In fact, the beauty of the handcrafted dragon, with all its incredible detail, is reflected in the facets of the diamond as it turns.Replica Watches Store

The Astronomia Flawless's 360-degree sapphire crystal case is an engineering feat in itself, as the entire case is made of crystal clear sapphire, putting the entire movement and dragon sculpture on display for all to see. All in all, the making of the Flawless case requires Nearly 1,000 hours of extra work.

"The finishing touch"
"The finishing touch" is a Chinese phrase meaning the finishing touch, emphasizing the attention to detail in creating the 18k rose gold Royal Dragon sculpture.

After nearly three months of uninterrupted work, the sculptor painstakingly created and cast the solid 18K rose gold dragon, and then polished it to complete the sculpture. A dragon is actually four parts—a head, body, tail, and water below—that must then fit together seamlessly. This is no easy task, as the golden dragon is very heavy, the screws that hold it together are small, and care must be taken not to damage the surface of the dragon when assembling.

The dragon then turned to the painter, who completed all the little details of the scales on the dragon's body, the teeth, the tongue, and yes, the eyes. As a result, the carvings are ingenious, leaving enough golden light to make the emperor dragon come to life.richard mille bubba watson

In China, the dragon is reserved for the emperor and represents power, prosperity, love and enthusiasm, and good luck. In fact, these fabled rulers were called "Son of the Dragon". For many emperors, the dragon they used was often holding a pearl. In this case, the dragon represents authority and the pearl represents wisdom. In "The Astronomical Flawless Emperor Dragon," the dragon holds a magnesia-blue lacquered sphere in one claw and a pearl (actually a pearl-painted 18K rose gold ball) in the other, which doubles as a fixed point Sculpture inside a one-piece sapphire crystal case.

The dragon is red because it is the most auspicious color and represents royalty and imperial power. Emperors often wore red, the doors of the court were painted red, and they always wrote their decrees in red ink. So, the red color of the Emperor Dragon is completely reasonable.

art tour
Never before has a timepiece combined haute horlogerie with fine art and the Astronomia Flawless Imperial Dragon. The Flawless case is the perfect gallery to showcase this unique sculpture - so you can view it anytime, rather than locked in some dusty museum.

The dragon wraps the Haute Horlogerie Astronomia movement, muscular and dynamic. The dragon's body undulates around the watch like the Great Wall of China, protecting the movement from any damage that might occur.

Worn on the wrist is the one-of-a-kind Astronomia Flawless Imperial Dragon, a highly complex Cheap luxury watches with fine art sculptures on display inside. The Astronomia Flawless Imperial Dragon is a stunning piece that fits perfectly with Jacob & Co.'s motto "Inspired by the Impossible".

replica Graham FORTRESS GMT watches

Graham Fortress Monopusher Chronograph

Take a look at the Graham Fortress Monopusher Chronograph, a typical Graham watch, but toned down a bit to increase its chances. For many of us, Graham is characterized by its massive, trigger-like chronograph pushers, novel use of colors and materials, grandiose proportions, underrated build quality, and, frankly, some Controversial looks are often almost cartoonish. The Graham Fortress Monopusher Chronograph repurposes many loud components to support some unobtrusive retro military vibes, ranks the trademark and build quality, and comes with a hefty price tag as a reminder that there is still nothing like luxury watchmaking for free Lunch.

Is Fort still a proper Graham? Absolutely, it looks the same from near and far. From a distance, it's still loud and reminds me of a Morgan tricycle with all the scantily clad women and bullet hole stickers all over its paramilitary paint job. If you own one of these, Graham Fortress is almost a must.fake designer watches

The crown and its integrated single button are on the left side of the watch - I still wear it on my left wrist because I really appreciate that the giant onion crown doesn't dig deep into the top of my wrist. But hey, if you're left-handed and have the watch on your right hand, this still looks "correct". On a related note, shouldn't there be more luxury watches for lefties? I think there should be.

the Graham Fortress definitely feels and looks expensive, and - despite its less serious style - feels and looks expensive, and it does. It's big, bright, and shiny, but the case feels solid, and at a second glance, it's delicately done. The dial showcases details only found on affordable watches, but more on that later. The straps, especially the tang buckle with the oversized edges, are beautifully made: no external components are bought cheaply.

Powered by what Graham calls the G1750 movement, the case houses a modified ETA/Valjoux 7750. It's not a Sellita: nearsighted or with a weak magnifying glass, you'll find it marked ETA under the balance wheel. Even the less eagle-eyed will find it mounted "upside down" in order to remove the crown from the case's Move right to left. So the continuously running seconds subdial is now at 3 o’clock, and the date at 9 o’clock – all straight-forward stuff.fake watch uk

As I said, the pusher is in the center of the crown. It's big and easy to find and click. What is unusual is the initial feel: compared to the smoothest and simplest mechanical chronograph, it takes some extra force to start the chronograph. It is a one-button chronograph, start, stop and reset are all done on the same button with three pushers. The first push requires maximum force, stopping is easier, and resetting is relatively a breeze. Anytime I would take more reassuring media on a vulnerable person, but frankly the initial force required belongs more to the equipment in the cockpit of a Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress than your average luxury watch . Come to think of it, this watch doesn't belong in a buttery smooth press, and I think Graham Fortress customers would agree.

At 47mm in diameter, the Graham Fortress is still a loud watch even without the ready-made colour combinations or the grenade pin pusher on the crown. The Fortress is optically too large for my 6.75" (17.2cm) wrist, according to traditional watch size guidelines (that is, the lug ends must not extend beyond the edge of the wrist). Still, the strap has enough holes for me to fit and wear it comfortably. Wearing long sleeves is a way to reduce its oversized look. Between you and me, I'd say I wish I could take these watches off better with the short sleeves.https://www.moon-watch.co

The Chronofighter Prodive I used to have had a big pusher and I really liked the way it looked and worked. That said, despite the live/pilot watch theme, somehow, on previous Fortresses, the same trigger-style pushers never actually clicked for me (see what I did there?). This integrated button is a more elegant solution. It's rated for 100 meters of water resistance, yet another proof that Graham isn't cutting corners by sacrificing real-world, long-term utility and durability. Every damn luxury watch should have at least a 100m WR - but many don't, and I'm glad this one does.

The bezel is concave and satin-brushed, a detail that adds more share to the fort’s uniqueness. It would have been easy and convenient to stick a polished dome bezel on it, but that's how such an expensive watch can and should be set apart from the rest. Both the case and lugs are polished, which makes me wonder if the full satin brushed look would match the theme better. But then again, if Graham wants to reach a wider audience, those audiences I've heard that prefer an expensive watch because it has (quite) a bit of sheen.

Wearing a 47mm watch is rarely a prudent or forgettable thing—at least not when you're on the move. This is especially true on my narrow wrist, which isn't specifically designed for watches over 45mm. Graham seems to have gotten the hang of it when it comes to designing large watches, though, as evidenced by the deep integration of the strap between the lugs. The holes and spring bars are close to the case itself, with little to no gap between the straps - further enhanced by the curved spring bars. All of this is to say that the strap can be turned down directly next to the case without sticking out the hard part, increasing the lug-to-lug dimension. The tang buckle also helps with wearing comfort, which is usually the case in my experience. Despite being bulky and made of steel,https://www.chrono4usale.co

The dial looks like the most delicate and expensive part of a watch. There's no way around it - the large, intricately shaped, raised hour-markers with thick polished frames look like trump cards when they reflect light back to you. They make any dial look expensive because producing them at this level is very expensive and challenging. Every index must be set on the exact same plane; minimal deviation means that only some indices will reflect on you and others will not. Needless to say, this still happens - but it has to do with the light source, not the exponential level.

The background is an almost microscopic particle that looks rough without appearing rough. The subdials sink below the plane of the grain, and the finish is somewhere between concentric rings and circular polish—indistinguishable to the naked eye. Appreciating the best of these will require a good magnifying glass.replica Zenith Chronomaster Watches

The legibility is excellent, and to my surprise, every day. The yellowish glow on the watch tends to be noticeably weaker than the regular off-white Super-LumiNova. In this case, I was pleasantly surprised by the uniformity and brightness of the luminous on the hands and hour markers when I first walked up the stairs from the sunny outdoors. It's easy to say these details should of course be perfect on a watch in the high four figures, but just because they should be perfect doesn't mean that's the norm. But in fact, it's not. The inside of the sapphire crystal is coated with an anti-reflective coating to reduce glare and further improve the legibility of the rhodium hands.

In this precise configuration, Fort Graham is unlikely to be dumped into the gray market. Combined with tighter controls on distribution and discounts, Graham is even better able to protect its merchandise from blows before the first sale — and thus, on the secondary market. For those who like this kind of stuff, the Graham Fortress is well made, fun to wear, and an expensive, high-quality off-the-shelf quasi-military watch. You can get a similar vibe for less -- a theme that's been trending in recent years -- but the quality of the case, dial and other gear, along with the quirky one-button upside-down movement, propels it into the fake luxury watches category.

Richard Mille RM 50-04 Tourbillon Split-Seconds Chronograph Kimi Raikkonen

 

Richard Mille RM 50-04 Tourbillon Split-Seconds Chronograph Kimi Raikkonen

Iceman got a really cool watch: the new Richard Mille RM50-04 Tourbillon Split-Seconds Chronograph

Ahead of the Singapore Grand Prix, Richard Mille has teamed up with Alfa Romeo driver Kimi Raikkönen (aka "The Iceman") to launch a new timepiece.

2007 F1 champion Kimi Raikkönen, known for his signature neat answers, finally has a watch named after him in honor of him and the Alfa Romeo team. The new Richard Mille RM50-04 Tourbillon Split-Seconds Chronograph. Let's hit the grid!

snowman
Kimi started his Formula 1 career in 2001 with Swiss racing team Sauber (renamed Alfa Romeo in 2019). After a test drive with the team in 2000, Kimi was signed on the spot by Peter Sauber. However, the FIA ​​(International Automobile Federation) initially refused to grant him a "super licence" as he only had 23 races to his name. However, after some persuasion, he got his license and scored his first championship points on his debut at the 2001 Australian Grand Prix.replica richard mille mclaren

From 2002 to 2006, Kimi worked for McLaren. Unfortunately, his time with the team was marred by multiple engine failures. Still, Kimi has nine victories with the British racing team. Still, he showed impressive racing skills and even challenged multiple champion Michael Schumacher. He finished second behind Schumacher in 2003 and was quickly seen as a rising star in Formula One.

Leaving McLaren to join Ferrari in 2007 has been a blessing for Kimi as he started the season with a victory at the Australian Grand Prix. The Scuderia has a more reliable car that suits Kimi's agility talent on the track. He won 15 podiums and six firsts in 2007, becoming an F1 champion ahead of Lewis Hamilton and Fernando Alonso.

In 2010, Kimi took a break from F1 to try out new racing activities such as NASCAR and rallying. But he soon returned to F1 with Lotus in 2012. The year he returned, he finished third in the championship.best replica watches websites

Returning to Ferrari in 2014, Kimi didn't have a great first year, finishing 12th in the championship. However, he returned the following year, finishing fourth and third in the following years. In my final season at Ferrari in 2018, Kimi only managed one win at the United States Grand Prix in Austin, Texas, and I had the opportunity to witness it for myself, and I quickly became a Kimi fan.

This year, Kimi decided to return to the Alfa Romeo team, emphasizing that he now races more for leisure than victory: "I don't feel the same pressure anymore, I can have fun at the wheel. That's what I like to do, even if I remain focused on doing my best to get the results the car deserves."

Kimi has also become an internet phenomenon for his legendary reserved personality and the fact that he remains calm in any situation, earning him the nickname "Iceman". Also, as a bonus point, his in-car radio conversation with the Alfa Romeo team is invaluable.best swiss replica watches

Alfa Romeo
The former Sauber is the only Swiss team in Formula One. Founded by Peter Sauber in 1970, it is a perfect example of hard work and perseverance. In fact, if Peter had chosen the easy route, he would have run his parents' traffic light business. He founded Sauber C1 (C for his wife Christian) in his parents' basement. In 1993 he entered Formula 1 from the World Sports Car Championship. This year Sauber changed its name to Afla Romeo Racing after securing a promising sponsorship and technical deal.

Sauber has attracted some of the best talent in Formula One, with drivers from Kimi to Charles Leclerc who have raced with the Swiss team. Known for their reliability and avant-garde cars with Ferrari engines, Alfa Romeo is a team to be reckoned with.replica Patek Philippe Nautilus

RM50-04
If you're a Formula 1 driver, Richard Mille is probably the best sponsor brand. Since all Richard Mille sponsored drivers have watches, if you're as important as Kimi Raikkönen, you'll get your own limited edition.

For the RM50-04, Richard Mille went the extra mile to pay homage to the world of F1, where the manufacturer builds the timepiece in the same analytical engineering way that the F1 team builds its cars. Everything in the watch is constructed and assembled in perfect harmony.

In an F1 car, every extra ounce of weight affects performance. Richard Mille took this very seriously, producing a chronograph tourbillon movement with a total weight of 7 grams. To make this feathery weight possible, Richard Mille built the movement and tourbillon from grade 5 titanium and carbon TPT. The case back is engraved with the number 7, which is Kimi's number.

The weight of this hand-wound tourbillon split-seconds chronograph does not affect its accuracy. If you are in doubt, you can check the torque indicator, which will indicate the tension of the mainspring. The crown pays homage to the car’s gearbox, and when the crown is pulled out, the position of the winding, neutral and hands can be seen.HYT Hastroid Green Nebula Men H02698-A

To make sure the watch was fit for racing, Richard Mille put the watch to a test comparable to an F1 car. The watch can handle up to 5,000 G's!

Kimi can't hide his excitement about this watch made just for him: "We Finns are known for our 'courage' and determination. We even have a word to describe it - sisu. However, in my sport , sisu is not enough. I have to rely on high performance technology and teamwork, but above all, pure passion! Richard Mille has powered his engine for all three years: courage, technical prowess And most importantly, fun. That's why I'm so excited to drive with the groundbreaking RM 50-04 on my wrist."

The tourbillon escapement works perfectly with the chronograph, and the skeletonized structure of the movement is visible through the sapphire glass, turning this timepiece into the perfect chronograph for the Iceman.www.moon-watch.co

Grand Seiko Evolution 9 Collection SLGA009 Watch

 

What is the difference between the Grand Seiko SLGA009 and SLGH005 "White Birch" watches?

In 2022, Grand Seiko is jumping right in with two new ice blue American special editions, and now a second "Birch tree"-inspired watch: the Grand Seiko SLGA009. This launch ushered in a new era for Grand Seiko watchmaking, which the brand calls the Evolution 9 – a rebranding of what we formerly called the Series 9 design.replica Grand Seiko Spring Drive

Combing through the feedback and reactions on social media, it's clear that the vast majority of enthusiasts and buyers are impressed with the watch. But there was also an air of confusion, with some wondering what the actual new features of this version were and the strategy for delivering what looked like another version (Grand Seiko SLGH005) of the exact same watch. However, when you dig deeper, there are many subtle differences beyond the main differences in their calibers, which I'll cover in more detail below.

Case Thickness and Strap
Admittedly, most of the exterior design and finishing of the SLGA009 is identical to the original SLGH005. The only minor differences in this regard are that the SLGA009 is 0.1mm thicker than the SLGH005 at 11.8mm and has a larger polished finish where the bracelet sits flush with the case. For a more in-depth explanation of the Evolution 9 case form inspired by its 44GS geometry, you can check out our introduction to the SLGH005 here. Now to discuss some more differences...Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Selfwinding Flying Tourbillon

A studio for making new watches
Grand Seiko timepieces are made in multiple workshops, each with their own character in their own location. As pictured above, Grand Seiko Studio Shizukuishi handles 9SA5 Hi-Beat powered references like the original SLGH005 "White Birch". On the other hand, Grand Seiko Studio Shinshu is the studio that manufactures all Spring Drive-driven watches, and therefore the new Grand Seiko SLGA009 “White Birch”. While they are both in-house studios working under the name Grand Seiko, nuances in approach permeate the timepieces they make.

Spring Drive and Hi-Beat
The most obvious difference between the new Grand Seiko SLGA009 and the previous SLGH005, as revealed by the dial text 6 feet on each dial and their exhibition casebacks, is the movement of each watch.

The SLGA009 is powered by the recently developed Spring Drive 9RA2 movement. As a Spring Drive movement, it offers incredible precision and promises to run at ±0.5 seconds per day. The movement is equipped with an "offset magic lever" winding system that reduces its thickness, allowing the SLGA009 to be clocked at 11.8mm, rather than the 12mm or higher commonly found on the 9R65 spring-driven power models. Its two barrels provide a power reserve of up to 120 hours for a total of 5 days - an improvement of 2 days or 48 hours over the 9R65. Its bridge lines and edges, as well as the edges of the screw holes, are diamond cut to reflect a very high-quality finish that collectors will appreciate. The bridges and skeleton rotor have a clean matte finish, reflecting a modern aesthetic more in line with modern spring-driven technology.perfect replica watches

Its predecessor, the SLGH005, was the first standard production model to feature the revolutionary 9SA5 Hi-Beat movement. Notable features include a new in-house designed double-pulse escapement, twin barrels with an 80-hour power reserve, a high frequency of 36,000 vph, a new free-spring balance, a full balance bridge and a new Grand Seiko upper The spiral hairspring is different from the brand and perfected through over 80,000 simulations. Like the 9RA2, the bridges feature delicate bevel and diamond cuts, but also feature more traditional stripes.

Dial texture and inner bezel
While the two dials clearly live up to the "Birch" muses, the execution is not as identical as it might seem at first glance. The real difference is their texture. "Unlike the deep wavy pattern on the dial of the SLGH005, the texture [on the SLGA009] is more subtle and delicate," explained Grand Seiko. The new texture on the SLGA009 is, in my opinion, more refined and the pattern more structured. By contrast, the SLGH005 feels more rustic. The depth of the textured engraving also inevitably changes the way each of the dial reflects and plays with light.luxury of replica watches

Unless you look closely, you might also miss the fact that the stepped inner bezel width is slightly different, the original SLGH005 looks narrower. On the stepped inner bezel of the SLGH005, you'll find minute hashes that meet the top and bottom and boxed hour markers that look more square. Rotate to the SLGA009 and you'll notice a tiny gap between the top of the stepped inner bezel and where the printing of the minute and hour markers begins. As the height increases, the bold hashes indicating the hours and five minutes appear taller and more rectangular in favor of square or boxed. Due to the slightly different dimensions of the two stepped inner bezels, the SLGA009's dial plane textured portion appears to be negligibly smaller than the SLGH005's.

Covered and uncovered seconds
Regarding the hands, the central hour and minute hands follow the same format on each model, although the width and length (probably) vary slightly on each model. As far as the hands are concerned, the most obvious difference is the central seconds hand. Yes, both are blue, and no, I don't mean how they sweep across the dial differently. On the SLGA009, the central seconds hand is capped - interrupting the bluing character of the central seconds hand. When you look at the SLGH005, there is no cover that sets the hands on the dial, so the hands are always blue. While there may be a technical difference, possibly due to the rotation of a flowing hand (spring driven) versus a more stepped or ticking hand (Hi-Beat), to the wearer it's just an aesthetic difference.replica Franck Muller Vanguard Watches

Date window size and aesthetics.
I won't bother with this one, as it's pretty clear once pointed out and doesn't change much in terms of appreciating each dial. Due to its 9RA2 spring-driven movement, the SLGA009 has a larger and wider date window and date wheel, with wider black numerals on a white disc. Conversely, the square date window on the SLGH005 dial is smaller, while the black date wheel numerals on the white disc have a narrower font. The main difference that dial purists might really spot is the small hash to the right of the SLGH005 date window. It didn't really get a lot of buzz when it was released, but now that we're seeing the "Birch" dial on the SLGA009 without it, it's even more noticeable. It may be removed to accommodate wider date windows,

Crown size
Both stainless steel watches feature screw-down crowns and are water-resistant to 100 meters. Having said that, the crown of the Grand Seiko SLGA009 5 Day Spring Drive is slightly wider (or taller) than the crown of the 9SA5 Hi-Beat SLGH005. For some, this might be the "cool bean" or "who cares" point of difference. But hey, I'm just being thorough here...replica jacob and co astronomia

A charming astronomical watch by Ludwig Oechslin with a modern black case from the Blast collection.

February 1 marks the arrival of the Lunar New Year, a holiday celebrated in China and other countries in Asia and Southeast Asia. replica Ulysse Nardin watches also wanted to commemorate the occasion by releasing a new version of the Moonstruck Worldtimer in a more modern, lighter case in the Blast collection. Representing the Moon's rotation and the Sun's apparent movement on a global scale as observed from Earth, Blast Moonstruck provides world time, dual time, and a highly accurate graphical representation of the Moon's ebb and flow and its effect on tides.

Time waits for no one
During Rolf Schynder's tenure as Ulysse Nardin's CEO (1983-2011), the brand developed a trilogy of astronomical or celestial watches with master watchmaker Ludwig Oechslin from 1985, and in 2009 launched the Moonstruck, a watch with Sophisticated display of global tides. Given the brand's strong ties to nautical chronometers, the concept of a global tide table is ambitious, yet meaningful, and goes beyond the limitations of most tide tables that only provide information on specific geographic locations. The result is the beautiful Moonstruck watch featuring a geocentric, hand-drawn view of the Earth from the North Pole, with two rotating discs on the periphery depicting the sun and moon.

In 2017, Ulysse Nardin launched the Moonstruck Worldtimer, still two celestial bodies revolving around the Earth, but also displaying time and tide graphs for 24 cities on the flange, the result of the combined effect of the moon’s and Earth’s gravity. Sun.

The new Blast Moonstruck is the UN's newest celestial odyssey, a direct descendant of the Oechslin trilogy, recreating the sun's visible trajectory, lunar cycles, and global time. Mechanical development can be complicated, as Oechslin explains, but the reason for developing astronomical watches is simple: “Because everything that has a regular cycle can be reproduced mechanically and therefore can be read on a dial. Encapsulating time is the art of the watchmaker." copy watches for sale

Black explosion-proof case
Unlike earlier versions with heavy platinum or rose gold cases, the 45mm Ulysse Nardin Blast Moonstruck now features a contemporary Blast line of black ceramic and black DLC-treated titanium cases. The sleek combination of black titanium and ceramic shrinks the size of the bold geometric case, while the lack of a bezel means there's plenty of viewing space for a myriad of functions. An elegant black and rose gold palette adds a satisfying touch of luxury.

Although we all adhere to the Copernicus heliocentric theory and know that the Earth and other planets orbit the sun, this watch depicts the movement of the sun and moon very much like the way we see these celestial bodies from Earth. As in previous versions, the northern hemisphere, as seen from the North Pole, is centered on the dial. Sapphire crystal with micro-engraved lands, 18K rose gold ring with 31 days of the month, domed sapphire crystal allows you to see the hour and minute hands and a gleaming black made of aventurine glass night sky. Like the small triangular hands of the date, the tapered hour and minute hands are filled with luminous material.

To reproduce the movements of the sun and the watches moon, Ulysse Nardin uses two elliptical structures, one corresponding to the moon (located on a sapphire disc) close to the earth. The depiction of the moon within the circular aperture is realistic, with craters, and is conveyed by a disk in the same ecliptic plane as Earth. Thanks to an ingenious gear train, the moon phase indicator makes one full revolution a day to follow the path of the sun, the source of the moon's brightness. The gear train also allows the moon to make one revolution around the dial in 29 days, 12 hours, 41 minutes, 9.3 seconds, representing a lunar month (the black ring surrounding the lunar aperture has two gilded tracks from 1 to 14 to represent the days of the lunar month). ). As a UN press release explains, "A lunar month, also known as the conjunction rotation, has an astronomical duration of 29 days, 12 hours, 44 minutes, 2.9 seconds".

The moon contained in the aperture recedes on its orbit every 24 hours to occupy a new position relative to the sun. Depending on the moon's cycle of gain and loss, different parts of the aperture appear, darkening or brightening according to the lunar calendar. This highly accurate moon phase indicator requires an all-day adjustment every 40 years.

highs and lows
While the latest interpretation of Moonstruck doesn't depict a graphic map of tides like earlier versions, any competent sailor will know that the different phases of the moon correspond to different tidal conditions. A new moon, when the moon is between the Earth and the sun, corresponds to a high tidal coefficient (spring tide). When the sun and moon are in a vertical position on the dial (sun at 6 o'clock and moon at 3 o'clock), the moon is in the waxing phase and has a low tide coefficient (​​neap tide). When the sun and moon face each other, the moon is full, and the tidal coefficient is high (spring tide). Finally, when the sun is perpendicular to the moon (the sun is at 6 o'clock and the moon is on the left side of the dial), the moon is waning and the tides are low (neap tide).replica HYT Hastroid Green Nebula

world and dual time
The two-tone ring on the dial is made of black and rose gold with a 24-hour scale that connects to the oval orbit of the sun. Bronze ore, a rare and precious mineral belonging to the pyroxene family, represents the golden sun and is dotted with black patches. As the sun makes one revolution every 24 hours, it slides over 24 reference cities printed on the outermost fixed flange, which is adjacent to the ring that depicts the 24-hour day/night indicator. The watch also features a dual-time mechanism that lets you change the main display in full-hour jumps via two buttons located on the left side of the case.

UN-106
Inside the case is an automatic movement developed and manufactured in-house, Caliber UN-106. A pioneer in the development of silicon technology, first introduced in the Freak watch in 2001 (another Oechslin creation), it features a silicon escapement and hairspring, and a skeletonized rose gold oscillating weight. The UN-106, consisting of 335 parts, beats at 4 Hz and has a 50-hour power reserve. At the push of a button at 8 and 10, the wearer of the Ulysse Nardin Blast Moonstruck Worldtimer can quickly move the time forward or backward an hour, a handy feature when traveling.
