Review Montblanc Timewalker Urban Speed E-Strap Watch

Montblanc Timewalker Urban Speed Chronograph, one of the first models to be equipped with the so-called Montblanc e-Strap, and it proved to be an interesting, if unconventional, wrist companion with some eminently useful capabilities. The “mech” parts of the watch exude a suitably sporty elegance: the round case is a fairly large 43 mm in diameter, made of stainless steel with a gray, sandblasted finish. The best replica watches at captainthewatch.is.

The slightly sloped bezel is in black ceramic and surrounds an expansive dial with a tricompax arrangement (30-minute chrono counter at 12 o’clock, 12-hour counter at 6 o’clock, running seconds at 9 o’clock, plus a slanted date window at 4 o’clock). The attention to detail on the winding crown is very nice, with a grooved, engraved pattern on the barrel and the famous Montblanc star logo in white on black. The pushers have a very smooth brushed finish and are a tactile delight to operate. The star also finds a home as an engraved motif at each end of the bars/screw heads that attach the curved openworked lugs to the strap.

I tooled around with most of the e-Strap’s multiple functions during my time with the watch, which include the following: vibrating notifications of incoming e-mails, texts and calls, as well as alerts from calendars, social media, and other apps; reading texts, identifying callers, and previewing e-mail subject lines on the tiny touch-screen display; and logging calories burnt, steps taken and distance traveled on the accelerometer-powered activity tracker (a particularly useful feature that I utilized regularly during the heavy-foot-traffic days at the SIHH watch fair in Geneva, which coincided with my reviewing period). It’s equipped with automatic winding, powered by a stylized Montblanc rotor graced with côtes de Genève, and offering a 46-hour power reserve and a brisk frequency of 28,800 vph.

Watch from Baselworld 2016 - Rolex Air-King 116900 40mm

The 40mm case is also a standout feature to the Air-King, larger than ever before. Previously, the Rolex Air King was a small watch, with a 34mm case, intended to be a sort of entry-level option, with a sportier feel than the classical Oyster Perpetual. Diameter apart, it shares its case with the Oyster Perpetual 39, so we see the same construction with a smooth bezel, satin finished flat surfaces, satin finished bracelet and polished casebands. The solid caseback and screw-down crown give this Rolex Oyster Perpetual Air-King ref. 116900 a 100m water resistance https://www.rolexcopiesclone.com/.

It features a mix of large hour digits and minute digits, combined with a minute track at the outer edge of the dial. The applied, white gold polished hour markers at 3 / 6 / 9 can be found on the Explorer (well, the pre-2016 39mm Explorer, without luminous paint into the indexes). The digits for the minute markers are printed in white – and those are the real link with pilot watches. It creates a mix of styles from various models in the Rolex line-up. This blend of styles might take a little while to get used to in terms of intuitive legibility, but it does give the Air-King its own, distinct identity.

The satin black dial is finished with several intriguing but interesting details, like the yellow crown below the white gold and luminous triangle at 12 o’clock. Below that, the green Rolex name paired with “Oyster Perpetual” in white. On the bottom part of the dial, it reads “Air-King” in a cursive lettering (a font reminiscent of the very first Air-King logo, as a tribute to Rolex’ past), and “Superlative Chronometer Officially Certified”, which is a testament of Rolex’s testing procedure. All of Rolex’ watches come with COSC certification, and following that, Rolex now tests its watches for even more precise chronometric rates. Redefined in 2015, the Superlative Chronometer Certification tests fully assembled watches, which now operate within a range of -2/+2 per day. The dial is finished with a Mercedes-style set of hands, another Rolex’ trademark and a central, green lollipop-seconds hand.

Chopard L.U.C Perpetual Chrono 2016

The brand new L.U.C calibre 03.10-L with a manually-wound chronograph and perpetual calendar. The new movement, entirely designed and produced in Chopard’s workshops, is based around a column wheel that drives the watch’s functions, which include a flyback mechanism.

Chopard L.U.C Perpetual Chrono has a distinctive double-window big date, with the day, month and the current or leap year, plus day/night indication and an orbital moon phase display. Karl-Friedrich Scheufele, co-President of Chopard, is keen to point out that the 45 mm case of the L.U.C Perpetual Chrono is made entirely of certified “Fairmined” 18K gold. Only 20 of these watches are available.

Hublot Classic Fusion Berluti 2016 Review

This dial is here made in embossed leather by Berluti, the Parisian shoemaker that celebrated its 120th birthday in 2015. Indexes and logo, even if similar to the other watches of the brand, are here embossed directly in the leather – a superb, slightly grained leather with a warm patina and unique tobacco brown colour. This dial makes a perfect contrast with the replica Hublot Classic Fusion case, here in 45mm and 18k King Gold.

Hublot Classic Fusion Berluti is also featured with a matching strap, using the classical “fusion” concept of the brand, meaning a rubber strap with a leather insert on top (guarantying a very high durability and great comfort).

The strap shares its colour with the dial and features inscriptions, sort of written scarifications (which explains the name “Scritto”). And the watch is delivered into a superb presentation box, looking like a shoebox, made in the same leather as the strap, with the same sort of artistic writings.

Powered by the calibre HUB1100 (an out-sourced movement with 42 hours of power reserve). Even at 45mm and made in gold, it remains relatively slim and comfortable on the wrist. It is for sure a bold and large watch but it remains balanced and easily wearable.

Rolex Submariner replica for modern luxury standards

The Rolex Submariner references currently being produced are musclebound beasts of timekeeping, catering to the modern luxury standards. The Rolex Submariner replica watches at rolexcopiesclone.com.

The watch, powered by the automatic Rolex Caliber 3135 with date indicator (or Caliber 3130 without one), is housed within a thick, 40-mm case in steel, steel and yellow gold, yellow gold, or white gold, featuring short lugs, sharp angles, and crown guards. Within the knurled edged bezel with ceramic Cerachrom insert resides the famous Submariner dial and all its workings.

These include applied, white gold, circular, rectangular, and triangular hour markers; sword, “Mercedes,” and lollipop hands; various color options on the sunburst-finished dial; the option of a cyclops date window; and, finally, the host of printed writing and logos.

Rolex Deepsea D-Blue Edition Replica

The watch, called the Rolex Deepsea D-Blue Edition, is identical to other Rolex Deepsea models, which are water-resistant to 3,900 meters thanks to what Rolex calls its “Ringlock System,” a combination of protective features that include a steel compression ring that surrounds the movement and supports the caseback and crystal. The Rolex Deepsea replica watches at captainthewatch.is.

Rolex unveiled the watch Aug. 4 at a screening of a new 3-D documentary that Hollywood director James Cameron (Titanic, Avatar) made about his 2012 dive to the bottom of the Mariana Trench, the deepest point of the ocean anywhere on earth, in a one-man submersible called the Deepsea Challenger. 

Rolex Sea-Dweller Deepsea has a water-resistance level of 3,900 meters (nearly 13,000 feet), and it is more than 10 percent slimmer than it otherwise would have been thanks to a special case construction developed by Rolex. It consists of three pressure-absorbing elements: a 5.5 mm thick sapphire crystal, a 3.28-mm-thick caseback made of grade 5 titanium, and an inner ring (on which both of them rest) made of Biodur-108 steel. Last summer, Rolex launched the new Rolex Deepsea D-Blue Edition, with a proprietary “D-Blue” dial that is dark blue at the top, and then darkens gradually to black at the bottom.
