Swiss watch manufacture Zenith will soon present a new addition to its “El Primero” family of chronographs. This model, the El Primero Jumping Seconds, takes the high-precision utility of Zenith’s famously rapid balance frequency to an even greater level of operational efficiency–thanks to a central chronograph hand which completes ten precise micro-stops around the dial in each full revolution of one second. To complete this challenging elaboration for the chronograph mechanism, the Zenith design team and watchmakers had to devise a number of technical solutions, as well as make use of silicon for strategic components in the Caliber 4052 B movement to reduce energy consumption and operating stresses.

The Zenith El Primero Jumping Seconds Chronograph watch carries on the retro-inspired theme that was initiated by the Le Locle-based house at Baselworld 2009. Buyers can choose from versions in stainless steel or 18-karat rose gold, both versions with 43mm diameter cases showing a distinguished combination of brushed and polished finishes. Aside from a vintage charm and intricate craftsmanship, the handsome dials tell part of the fascinating technical story embodied in the self-winding chronograph movement. Examining the raised rehaut reveals a distinctive calibration–a mere ten divisions, rather than the typical arrangement of 60 marks. These naturally correspond to the ten exacting stops the thundering (or “foudroyante”) central chronograph hand makes during its one second revolution around the dial. Some handsome details which create visual intrigue for the  Zenith watch include the faceted hour indices, and an overlapping triad of chronograph subdials that are particularly striking in the stainless steel model thanks to a color differentiation with black, grey, and blue. The tasteful inscription “1/10th Of A Second” beneath the Zenith and El Primero dial signatures gives subtle hint to the high-performance technical qualities of the mechanism lying beneath.

A sapphire exhibition back allows a glimpse into the column-wheel governed El Primero 4052 B caliber, whose fascinating features are arguably crowned by a balance wheel moving back and forth at the famously frisky pace of 36,000 vibrations per hour–the signature frequency of all Zenith self-winding chronographs since 1969. This is in marked contrast to the majority of mechanical calibers on the market which employ balance oscillations of 18,000 vph, 21,600 vph, or often, 28,800 vph. While the classical integrated construction of this caliber and its innovative technology is most impressive, aesthetics are not wanting, either: tasteful beveling and circular graining decoration present a pleasing landscape for the eye to appreciate, one topped off with an intricately fashioned central winding rotor displaying the Zenith star logo.

Water resistance of the Zenith El Primero Jumping Seconds Chronograph watch is 100 meters, and both steel and 18K versions come fitted with sapphire crystals. The sporty yet elegant appearance of the model is well matched by rubber-lined straps in alligator leather, and a tang buckle bearing the Zenith insignia. The stainless steel Jumping Seconds Chronograph will also be offered on a stainless steel bracelet that closes securely via a triple-deployant clasp.

The New Cartier Captivewatch model was presented during the Salon International de la Haute Horlogerie (SIHH) 2010.

The model is stunning with the 35 mm to 55 mm (depending on the model size) 18-k white gold dial, covered with rhodium. The smaller version is made with just one blued steel hand (for the hours – you can tell the time within 10 minute precision), while the larger version has two hands.

And as usual, the dial has no lack of diamonds. They are on the Cartier Captive watch bezel and on the dial’s perimeter as well. Moreover, the “numbers” on the dial are made of 3 karat diamonds.

Case aperture serves as a bracelet’s bracing. This affect brings some pocket watch notes to the Cartier Captive design. The light-grey canvas material bracelet is elegant enough the wear it with the 18-k white gold snap.

Sapphire glass will prevent Cartier Captive from mechanic damage. And 30 meter water resistance is a good reason for a pleasant sail sing. Inside the watch you’ll find the quartz movement.

The New Cartier model is expensive enough.. But despite of this I consider Cartier Captive the best way not only for “captivating her,” but also for “keeping her captive.”

Today there are lots of people who are crazy about replica luxury watches. This nascent interest in replica luxury watches can be explained only by gauging into the human affair with things which are attractive, costly and rare. The doting after watches is as old as the beginning of the watches. Indeed, they were available only in a trickle to the kings, queens, popes and other rich as well as nobles. In those days they were prohibitively costly as each watch was made in a workshop by individual watch makers and a few people who were trying to learn the craft as an apprentice. Since the clientele of the ancient watches were royalty they were made with all kinds of ornate decorations in diamond and gold.

As years passed technology found newer ways of making watches at an affordable cost. In modern times with the introduction of mass production and the use of quartz movement watches became unbelievably low priced. Watches are available today for a price as low as five dollars. This is indeed the miracle of technology. However, watch making in the traditional way, using mechanical movements have been made in many parts of the world especially in Switzerland. They were more like artists working on a craft and hence extremely rare. Now everyone knows that all artifacts are costly compared to machine made products. This principle is operational in portrait painting. A camera can make a perfect copy of a person. However, the portrait of a person painted by an artist is of greater value in the long run. This is the triumph of art over technology.

Many watches, because they approached watch making as art, because they had celebrity users in the past and because of their excellent craftsmanship has become legendary. There is insatiable craving in man to be associated with legendary things like watches of great fame and glory. Patek Philippe, Omega, Rolex, Hublot, Vacheron Constantin, Zenith are only a few in this impressive galore. These watches are too costly and many people look for practical alternatives in the form of replica watches. They come with the same attractive exterior and inner strength in the machinery. Dealers like ReplicaExpert.Us are excellent suppliers of these high-end replica watches.

Seiko is aiming to more than double its number of outlets in India.

Rolex has become to be synonymous to elegance and exquisite design, being labeled as a luxury brand of watches with an impressive tradition in the world of watch manufacturing. Established 105 years ago, Rolex still maintains high its standards of watch manufacturing, the timepieces created being regarded as statements of technical performance and sophisticated design. Owning a Rolex gives you confidence and definitely assures your social status in whatever gathering you may find yourself in, as this is not just a watch making brand, but a chapter in the history and long lasting tradition of watch manufacturing.

Rolex has introduced years ago a successful collection bearing the name of Rolex Datejust, and ever since 1945, the start model of that collection was redesigned and reequipped into becoming what we refer to today as the new Rolex Datejust Royal Black Watch. This new version embraces a refined look, given the fact that it uses diamond adornments to recreate a brilliant and classy appearance.

        The new Rolex Datejust Royal Black Watch features a 36 mm in diameter case made of 18 k white gold. The size of the case was chosen to fit a feminine design, especially made for those sophisticated women that like wearing on their wrists combinations between watches and elegant accessories of jewelry. As for a woman fashion and trends are everything, it was normal that Rolex would approach an extremely modern design, recurring to diamond or black sapphires. The design was thought as to cover various tastes, and so there are two versions of the new Rolex Datejust Royal Black Watch: one featuring 60 diamonds on the bezel contrasting a black and diamonds paved dial, while the other featuring 60 black sapphires on its bezel. These two versions are available on a black rubber leather strap and gluchant strap, adorned with precious stones.

        Even though the designers from Rolex have aimed at recreating the fanciest design possible, one of the strong points of this nicely looking Rolex Datejust Royal Black Watch is represented by its technical performance. The mechanism equipping this watch was C.O.S.C certified and goes by the name of Rolex 3135 Calibre, being a self-winding movement able to offer 50 hours of power reserve, along with 100 meters water resistance. Apart from the traditional functions of hour, minute and second, this watch also provides a date window located at 3 o’clock. Although no technical aspects were neglected in the manufacturing of this watch, I’m sure that many women would find its 100 meters water resistance function almost irrelevant, as no lady would put this exquisite timepiece in the water.

        Regardless your chosen version, either the one featuring diamonds or the one with black sapphires, I can assure you that Rolex Datejust Royal Black Watch doesn’t come cheap at all.

A delight to the eyes, the new Petite Seconde Venom by Cimier has made quite a sensation in 2009, the year of its release, and has remained even now one of the piece de resistance of the Cimier’s Collections of watches.

The launch of this timepiece was meant to celebrate both the rename of this football player, and also, his association with the brand of Cimier, and so the limited number of pieces is well-justified.

The case uses on some areas brushed and polished surfaces to capture an elegant light, providing the watch with the necessary brightness.

        The watch was designed to perform its technical functions at the highest level of performance, so we can assure you that its mechanism is completely accurate and reliable. The movement is a hand-wound mechanical movement and goes by the name of ETA/Unitas 6497 Calibre, being able to support the main functions of the watch and also to offer a power resistance of 50 meter deep. The movement is visible through the case back, so the curious can admire the inner working of the new Cimier Petite Seconde Venom watch without any problems. Along with its ability to provide 50 meters of water resistance, this movement is also capable of providing 56 hours of power reserve. Most timepieces presented by Cimier are equipped with shock absorption systems and also, the sapphire crystal covering the tops and backs of the cases are all scratch resistant.

        The impressive Cimier Petite Seconde Venom watch has a strap matching both the reputation of its ambassador and also the resonant name of its brand and it’s made of python leather. The yellow python strap matches perfectly the yellow hands indicating the hours and minutes and also, the over all aspect of the watch.

Officine Panerai excels at creating impressive wrist watches that have no fear of time passing by because of their timeless designs. The famous model Radomir is definitely a landmark piece of the Officine Panerai brand, the model being introduced for the first time in 1938. The model was designed back then to face extreme conditions related to both diving and night visibility, and its design was extremely masculine, with a case measuring 47 mm in diameter. Over the years, this model has been refined into what we refer today as the new Radomir PAM 00210 Watch, a watch with considerable reduced size and more progressive technical performance.

        The case of the new Radomir Watch measures 45 mm in diameter and approaches the same classic look, with its roundly-shaped figure and the simple design features of its dial. The case is crafted from polished steel or 18 karats pink gold, each version matching its bezel, made as well from the same materials, either brushed stainless steel or pink gold. The crown is located traditionally on the lateral side of the case at three o’clock, the designers choosing to maintain the original design of the Panerai watch, without equipping it with the patented protecting system for the crown.

        The model Radomir Pam 00210 has a very discreet dial, the only functions it displays are the minute and hour functions. The detailing from the watch is luminescent coated to provide the best legibility at night, or in dark spaces when diving.

        The true star-element at the new Radomir PAM 00210 is its technical movement, which although it provides only the traditional functions of hours and minutes, it is highly accurate and very reliable in terms of its resistance. The Panerai OP x Calibre equipping this timepiece guarantees a power reserve of 56 hours, along with 100 meters water resistance. The case is constructed as to offer the best protection of the movement and so the designers have chosen to use a shock absorption system for this watch, and have also chosen the thickest sapphire crystal to cover both the dial and the case back, 1.9 mm thick.

        This Radomir PAM 00210 Watch by Officine Panerai is included in the ”Historic” Collection and celebrates the watches manufactures in 1997, under the name of Radomir, a Collection measuring only 60 timepieces.

        The strap of the new Officine Panerai Radomir PAM Watch is made of leather and is equipped with a folding clasp made of either steel or 18 carats pink gold. Each version matches perfectly the materials of the case, so the design is quite harmonious.

        Officine Panerai has designed collections and collections of watches, but the Radomir Collection still has its well-deserved place both in the heart of the brand and in the hearts of Officine Panerai’s customers worldwide.
