Porsche Design Chronograph 1 50th Anniversary 911 Turbo Edition

At the intersection of automotive excellence and watchmaking craftsmanship, a new masterpiece is born: the Porsche Design Chronograph 1 – 50th Anniversary 911 Turbo Edition. This extraordinary timepiece is more than just a tribute to a legendary car. It is also a testimony to the spirit of innovation, precision and the relentless pursuit of perfection that Porsche and Porsche Design embody.

The story of Porsche Design did not begin in the watchmaking workshop, but on the racetrack. Porsche Design was founded in 1972 by Professor Ferdinand Alexander Porsche, grandson of the Porsche founder and designer of the iconic 911, with the intention of applying the principles of automotive design to other fields. The result is a range of products that are both functional and beautiful, reflecting the essence of the Porsche philosophy.

The Chronograph I, launched in the same year, was Porsche Design’s first foray into the world of watches. This watch embodies the spirit of the 911, with clean lines, a focus on legibility and uncompromising performance. In Professor Porsche’s own words, it was “a watch for 911 drivers”.

The launch of the Porsche 911 Turbo in 1974 marked a turning point in automotive history. With its turbocharged engine and unique design, this groundbreaking car redefined the boundaries of performance and cemented Porsche’s reputation as a pioneer in automotive engineering.

The 911

Turbo was not only fast, but also a technological marvel that pushed the limits. Its wide body, large rear spoiler and powerful engine made it an instant icon, a car that captured the imagination of enthusiasts around the world. It was a symbol of Porsche’s relentless pursuit of excellence, a car that embodied the spirit of the racetrack. replica watches

Fifty years after the 911 Turbo made its debut, Porsche Design pays tribute to this automotive legend with the Chronograph 1 – 50 Years 911 Turbo Edition. Limited to 500 pieces, this limited edition pays tribute to two icons, combining automotive tradition and watchmaking craftsmanship.

The design of this watch cleverly blends classic and modern elements. The 40.8 mm titanium case, coated in black titanium carbide, exudes a sense of understated sophistication. The black dial with white hands and hour markers echoes the minimalist aesthetic of the original Chronograph I, ensuring optimal readability in all lighting conditions.

But it’s the details that really set this watch apart. The flyback chronograph function is a nod to the 911’s racing heritage, resetting and restarting the chronograph hands in an instant. The sapphire crystal caseback with seven layers of anti-reflective coating offers a glimpse into the workings of the Porsche Design WERK 01.240 movement, COSC-certified for exceptional accuracy and precision. And then there’s the winding rotor, a masterpiece of engineering and design. Crafted in the iconic Fuchs wheel motif, a design that revolutionized car wheel design in the 1960s, the rotor visually evokes the watch’s deep connection to the 911 Turbo. It’s a testament to Porsche Design’s commitment to innovation and a symbol of the brand’s relentless pursuit of perfection.

At the heart of this extraordinary watch replicas is the Porsche Design WERK 01.240 calibre. Developed and manufactured in-house, this COSC-certified movement is the embodiment of the brand’s commitment to horological excellence. It not only has to keep accurate time, but also deliver performance that matches the spirit of the 911 Turbo.

A common feature in high-end racing chronographs, the flyback chronograph function instantly resets and restarts the chronograph hands at the touch of a button. This feature pays homage to the racing heritage of the 911 and underlines the watch’s connection to the world of high-performance cars.

With a power reserve of 48 hours, the WERK 01.240 keeps time even when not on the wrist. The sapphire crystal caseback offers a pleasing view of the movement’s intricate workings. The meticulously polished components, the oscillating balance wheel and the iconic Fuchs rotor together create a symphony of mechanical precision.

The case of the Chronograph 1 – 50 Years 911 Turbo Edition is crafted from titanium, a material renowned for its excellent strength-to-weight ratio. This choice of material not only ensures that the watch is comfortable to wear, but also increases its durability, making it a reliable companion for everyday adventures.

The black titanium carbide coating adds an extra layer of scratch resistance, further enhancing the watch’s resilience. The 40.8 mm case size strikes the perfect balance between presence and wear resistance, making it suitable for a wide range of wrist sizes.

The matte black dial with white hands and indexes is a direct descendant of the original Chronograph I. This minimalist design prioritizes legibility, ensuring that the time and chronograph functions can be read at a glance even in difficult lighting conditions. The “Flyback” lettering above the 6 o’clock marker subtly echoes the 911’s boost pressure gauge, adding a touch of automotive style.

The date and day windows are located at 3 o’clock, providing additional functionality without cluttering the dial. The sapphire crystal is coated with seven layers of anti-reflective coating on both sides, ensuring a clear view of the dial and further enhancing legibility.

The Chronograph 1 – 50 Years 911 Turbo Edition comes with two straps, perfect for any occasion. The black titanium bracelet with a folding clasp complements the sporty aesthetic of the watch. The additional beige textile/leather strap with a black Velcro fastener and Turbo emblem adds a touch of vintage charm, reminiscent of the interior of the classic 911 Turbo. fake watches for sale

The quick-change strap system makes it easy to switch between the two straps, allowing you to easily adjust the watch to your style or mood. Whether you are attending a formal event or driving on the road, the Chronograph 1 – 50 Years 911 Turbo Edition can meet your needs.

The Chronograph 1 – 50 Years 911 Turbo Edition is not just a watch, but an exclusive collector’s item. Its rarity, combined with its association with two iconic brands, makes it a coveted item for watch enthusiasts and Porsche lovers alike.

U-Boat U-42 Bronze and Black Titanium Ref. 6947

Last week we introduced the U-Boat U-51 Chimera Bronze Edition. We decided to do a weekly U-Boat review and we chose this U-Boat U-42 B&B Ref 6947 as our second watch to review.

The case parts of this large 53mm U-42 (referring to the year that Italo Fontana’s (CEO) grandfather founded the company, not the size of the watch of course) are made of black-coated titanium. However, the size of 53mm does not seem to be anything special, just ordinary big.

But if you’ve ever met one of the Fratellos, you’ll know we’re not skinny and short. So we might not be that picture perfect reference when it comes to wrist size and talking about comfortable watches. Regardless, we think it’s fine on the wrist. If you’re interested in a 53mm U-boat, be sure to give it a try.

Anyway, size aside, we would say that the main aspect of this Italian timepiece that stands out is the matte black case combined with bronze details. Bronze & Black titanium is also a “working title” which makes perfect sense. The contrast is great, which is good for its readability. The crown, hook pin, bezel screws, bezel release lever and small numbered plate on the side of the case (limited to 300 pieces) are all in bronze. The hands are only available in bronze, as we’re guessing bronze is too heavy for the hands and (eventually) will cause dissatisfaction with the center pinion.

The dial, like the recently reviewed U-51 Chimera Bronze, has a two-layer design, one bronze and one black, for excellent visibility.

We love the level of detail on these next-gen U-Boat fake watches, but we also think some parts are a little overdone. Like mentioning three times that this watch is number 42 out of 300. We like the numbered versions (instead of – as we’ve seen on some IWC’s – 50 cases engraved with “One of 50”) but 3x 42/300 doesn’t make sense. But maybe that exaggeration does serve a purpose for the average U-Boat enthusiast.

The reverse side of the black titanium case shows the bezel release lever and the U-42 model name embossed. To prevent the bi-directional bezel from turning while diving (or otherwise rely on it), you first need to pull the lever to do so. Small bronze dots on the bezel show the exact minutes (15 – 30 – 45) of each quarter, and 00 (or 60) is a black polished pearl dot.

The back of the case is all black and there is no transparent bottom cover. Instead, there are some interesting engravings on the solid black caseback. replica watches for sale

And of course the watch’s limited edition number, reference number and model name, as well as the autograph of the company’s head, Italo Fontana.

As you can see, the crown of this watch is very special. After pulling the small trigger at 7 o’clock (or in the picture above, the little round bronze thing next to the lug), you pull the long (very long) crown. After that, it works just like any other regular winding and setting crown. The reason for having such a long crown is – in theory – an aspect of ease of use in all conditions, but we’re assuming U-Boat is targeting divers specifically with this gloved watch underwater. Other than that, it looks pretty cool.

Granted, we prefer the U-51 Chimera in bronze, but that’s just a matter of personal taste. Likewise, the finish and level of detail on U-42 B&B Ref 6947 is fantastic. The automatic movement is based on the ETA2824-2, which U-Boat refers to as the U-28. The movement has a power reserve of +40 hours and a beating rate of 28.800 BPH. Plenty of big brands are using solid no-nonsense movements.

Hands-on Jacob & Co. Epic X Titanium: Does it have an X-factor?

Jacob & Co. proposes an everyday luxury cheap watch with a skeletonized dial and sporty personality.

No diamonds, no double triple-axis tourbillon or ready-made complications, the Epic X collection is Jacob & Co.’s answer to the everyday men’s watch. The ultra-modern Epic X Titanium watch features an ultra-bold and completely original 44m grade 5 titanium case and features a hand-wound skeleton movement that displays the hours and minutes. The overall impression is one of transparency and airiness, offering a special vision of movement.

performance as an art form
Jacob & Co. cheap watches are unequivocal. The brand’s world is about performance and prosperity, and statement pieces that are bigger than life: bigger, louder, and more complex, the better. And in this category of ultra-luxury lifestyle watches, Jacob & Co. is unrivaled. The recently launched Twin Turbo Furious model is packed with so many exciting complications that it almost levitates. Or the stunning Astronomia Tourbillon Clarity timepiece, with its 3D octopus wrapping his tentacles on a three-axis tourbillon and spinning planets, or the Opera Godfather watch with a music box that plays the notes of a movie-themed music? (See below for the brand’s wildest creations)

So, what does Jacob & Co. offer men more suitable for everyday life? The Epic X series seems to fit the bill, and while it’s hard to describe it as a sports watch, it definitely exudes a sporty spirit. Designed by watchmaker Benjamin Muller, this Epic X watch draws design cues from Muller’s original Spyder collection before he was hired by Jacob & Co.

Uniquely shaped titanium case
The case of this Epic X model is made from grade 5 titanium in a variety of finishes, a lightweight metal that combines strength and corrosion resistance. The unique X pattern of the Epic X series extends from four points on the bezel to the lugs. Personally, the X looks more like the armored legs of an insect straddling a box, but that’s probably the octopus’s spell that worked for me. It looks confident, modern and masculine no matter how you look at it.

To suit this type of watch, the case and X-shaped lugs are satin-finished and polished. With a generous 44mm diameter and a case height of 12.3mm, the case offers a wide field of motion – however, it’s still surprisingly comfortable to wear on the wrist.

transparent mechanism
The skeletonized dial of the Epic X Black Titanium is an example of the modern art of key skeletonization with impressive transparency. The transparency and openness of this dial allows you to enjoy the different parts of the hand-wound movement. Consisting of 158 parts, the action on the dial takes place in the central and left areas, where the vertically aligned barrel and balance wheel first come into view. To hold the movable structure in place, the sandblasted upper bridge—actually an extension of the lugs—straddles the movement vertically and is hollowed out to ensure maximum viewing pleasure. On the right side of the bridge there is a plaque engraved with the series name, while the brand name is placed in a cutout at the top of the barrel at 12 o’clock.

Made exclusively for Jacob & Co. by Concepto, a respected movement manufacturer, the hand-wound skeleton movement (JCAM02) beats at 28,800 beats per hour and has a 48-hour power reserve. The back of the watch reveals a black bridge, and the back of the watch is engraved with the name of the watch and its creator, Benjamin Muller. Overall, the finishing and decoration of this movement is impressive, with finely grained bridges, beveled and polished angles and rubies set in sparkling rhinestones. very happy!

Another distinguishing feature of the Epic X is its original honeycomb rubber strap. Featuring a dynamic arrangement of hexagonal perforations, the strap is designed to echo the openwork pattern of the dial while providing wearer comfort. The strap is secured by a titanium pin buckle.

New: Corum Admiral 42 Automatic “Grenadier Fendu”

Corum refreshes the iconic Admiral collection with the new Admiral Automatic “Grenadier Fendu”, launching 6 new models in steel, steel and gold, with a choice of two dial colors.

Admiral is one of the recognized symbols of Corum. Originally released as part of the America’s Cup collection, when Corum didn’t continue its partnership with the America’s Cup, the collection had to be reimagined and brought about the collection, renamed Admiral from 2017. The 12-face case remains, and the penchant for exploring new materials continues under new names. E.g. The Corum Admiral AC-One 45 features a wooden dial and bronze case, the 2016 Corum Admiral’s Cup Legend 47 Worldtimer features the iconic nautical flag pattern, sapphire skeleton dial and the old model name Admiral’s Cup.

The basis of the new “Grenadier Fendu” is the Admiral 42 Automatic, bronze edition. But the 6 new models have steel cases, steel bezels or gold bezels. There are two dials to choose from – dark blue or black. The dial is made of a huge piece of bronze, a very unusual dial material, with a special pattern created by replica Corum, known as “Grenadier Fendu”. Choose from an alligator leather strap or a stainless steel bracelet.

As one of Corum’s most iconic collections, Admiral adheres to the spirit of modern design, inspired by a long history of sailing. This collection is beloved by collectors, especially those eager to indulge in an active and elegant lifestyle. Now, the master craftsmen of Corum have launched six coveted Admiral 42 self-winding watches with unique dial patterns.

Three years after the inaugural America’s Cup in 1957 (celebrating the 1851 America’s Cup, today the oldest international sailing competition), Corum has released its first Admiral watch. The brand partnered with the event organization as a sponsor to create the first square Admiral watch, which debuted in 1960.

Twenty years later, in 1980, the Admiral collection was completely redesigned. Now with its 12-sided (dodecagon) case shape and colorful sailing pennants, it quickly gained a cult following and elevated the collection to the legendary status it enjoys today. In the decades since, the Admiral has been greatly appreciated as new and more visionary evolutions (always inspired by ocean racing and sailing) laid the groundwork for this seamaster timepiece focus on. replica watches swiss

Today, as Corum responds to the call of contemporary casual navigators and marine enthusiasts, it brings a new version ready to sail. Each of the six versions boasts a dial with a 3D Grenadier fendu pattern, designed entirely in-house by the Corum team at La Chaux-de-Fonds in 2019, and is an exclusive and exclusive product of the brand. To date, this dial pattern has only been used on the 38mm and 45mm Admiral Automatic watches, so this marks a first for the Admiral 42 Automatic.

Essentially, the six new versions boast two dial colors: a rich Mediterranean blue and a striking midnight black. Three models are available in each dial color: stainless steel case and bracelet; stainless steel case with color-coordinated alligator strap; stainless steel case with 18-karat 5N rose gold bezel and crown, color-coordinated alligator Strap with triple folding clasp.

The dial of each watch showcases a bezel flange, the famous nautical pennant transferred in outline format and minute scale, applied hour markers and white Super-LumiNova coated Dauphine skeleton hands, 3:00 date through aperture and auxiliary small 6:00 seconds to dial.

The sapphire crystal of each watch is treated with an anti-reflective coating, and the caseback is also treated with an anti-reflective coating to allow viewing of the movement. Each replica watches review is powered by the automatic CO 395 movement, beating at 4 Hz and offering a 42-hour power reserve. Thanks to the screw-in case back, the Admiral 42 Automatic is water-resistant to 100 meters. They are perfect for today’s lifestyle.
