When it comes to Patek Philippe sports watch, most people think of Golden Eagle or Undersea Explorer first, but the brand actually launched a flying watch Ref. 5524G in 2015. This watch was born below everyone’s glasses. This watch was born. The reason is that the brand wants to pay tribute to the outstanding people in the history of aviation, and the design inspiration of the watch is taken from the two antique time angle / stellar time flight watches in the brand’s timepiece history museum; the 5524G has a more youthful The design and color of the unique face plate, even in the face plate pattern, even the large Arabic time scales and pointer styles are not far from other brands’ retro flight watches, but they are still interpreted by the watch king (but (Some people will think that this is a very Patek Philippe watch).

5524’s large Arabic numerals and pointers are taken from early flight watch elements, mainly inspired by two antique time angle / star chronograph flight watches in the Patek Philippe Museum

Feature one: put on rose gold material in 2018
In 2017, Patek Philippe once launched the 5522A, which belongs to the flight watch series at the Watch Art Grand Exhibition in New York. This returned to the basic three-pin design and the case was changed to stainless steel for the people. However, at the time, only 600 were sold in the United States. This move undoubtedly lifted the momentum of the Patek Philippe flight watch, revealing that the 5524G will not be a fleeting attempt, but also makes people look forward to the brand’s launch of more new flight watch works in the coming year. The answer was finally revealed at the 2018 Basel watch exhibition-the brand launched a modified version of Ref.5524R, 5524R. Although it was only a change of material and face color matching, there was less surprise, but at the same time, Patek Philippe also increased the size of the watch. Ref.7234R for women’s watch versions below 40mm, with the rare flying watch men’s and women’s models of top brands, has become another focus of the brand’s sports watch works in 2018 after the Nautilus and Aquanaut series.

Different from the rough style of ordinary flight watches, the 5524R uses a precious metal case, and at the same time, the work of these detailed elements, regardless of surface details and pin buckles, is quite delicate and wonderful, showing the elegant aspects of the flight watch.

Feature two: The faceplate details and color are also fine-tuned.
Ref.5524R changed the white gold to rose gold, and the faceplate was also changed from the dark blue made in the past to a brown color that matches the rose gold. Of course, in order to match the appearance of the case, including the pointer material and large Arabic numerals, etc. Also changed to the same rose gold material. The diameter of Ref.5524R is the same as the previous one, and the diameter of Ref.7234R is 37.5mm. This size is not inconsistent even for men with thinner wrists. Although the size of the men’s and women’s watches are different, in fact, both are equipped with 324 SC FUS movements. For men’s watches, there is no internal change at all; but from the perspective of Patek Philippe’s women’s watches, the emergence of 7234R represents Significantly different, because the brand’s previous launch of women’s watches with dual time or world time zone functions has always used a hand-wound movement. This automatic movement will undoubtedly expand market acceptance, which also means Patek Philippe The women’s watch has evolved again with the pace of the times. This time, instead of relying on gorgeous diamonds or decorative craftsmanship, this time, it has shown the strong character of women with a more neutral design.

The model is equipped with a 324 SC FUS movement with a vibration frequency of 28,800vph and a power reserve of 45 hours. By the way, the female watch 7234R is also equipped with this movement.

Feature three: convenient but insured GMT quick adjustment
The 324 SC FUS movement on the watch is characterized by the push-buttons of the case at 8 o’clock and 10 o’clock, which can quickly adjust the time hands of the two places forward or backward in units of one hour. The dual day and night display window in the residence allows the wearer to recognize the current moment more intuitively and quickly. In addition, in order to prevent the wearer from accidentally touching the two quick adjustment knobs, Patek Philippe also has a corresponding strategy, that is, the introduction of a patented safety hydrant mechanism. If the wearer wants to perform adjustment, he must first open the knob to apply pressure The thoughtful and thoughtful watchmaking thinking will be another advantage of this watch.

Chanel first launched the new Monsieur de Chanel watch for men for the first time in 2016, equipped with the brand’s first self-made advanced complex movement Caliber 1, with the function of jumping time and retrograde minutes. A balance between superior performance and minimalist design. Combining dual complicated function mechanism with digital time scale display, it shows the ultimate simplicity. Caliber 1 movement, specially designed for Monsieur watches, has the function of jumping hours and retrograde minutes. It is the first movement completely designed, developed, tested and completed by Chanel.

The Monsieur watch is equipped with Caliber 1 movement, with hour jumping and retrograde minute functions. It is the first movement completely designed, developed, tested and completed by Chanel.

Caliber 1 is a manual-winding movement with a total of 170 parts. It uses a comprehensive complex function mechanism, that is, integrates the complex function mechanism to the bottom plate, instead of simply connecting the module to the substrate. Adhering to the extreme respect for traditional craftsmanship, combined with absolute modern elements, after five years of intensive research and development, Caliber 1 is successfully equipped with dual complex functions. Through the noble texture and reliability of the watch, Chanel’s commitment to technology and creativity is clearly visible. As a pioneer, Caliber 1 demonstrated its return to basics and its pursuit of simple and refined design. This masterpiece is set off by two sets of ring-shaped hollow bridges to highlight the beauty of mechanical operation, which strongly reflects Chanel’s style codes. The staggered design of matte and shiny black stands out on the ADLC (Amorphous Diamond Like Carbon) diamond-plated carbon-plated movement, and the trim highlights the delicate curve of the bottom plate and the bridge. Inspired by the classic octagonal shape of Place Vendôme, this watch design features many tailor-made parts.

The 2018 Monsieur de Chanel launched 20 Beige gold and white gold each. The most obvious change is that the small second hand of the faceplate has been changed to a lion statue decoration. On the one hand, it is linked to Ms. Chanel’s constellation, and it also highlights the watch model. Masculine personality

The new work in 2018, combined with the constellation of Ms. Chanel, the lion statue is designed on the faceplate. It is one of the brand’s classic totems, and it is also the representative mark of Chanel’s homemade high-end watch movement. Regardless of the front or back of the watch, the ‘Lion’ strengthens the masculine aesthetic design, making the work instantly recognizable as Chanel’s high-end watch-made movement.
Chanel chose the brand’s most masculine logo-the lion as the buckle and crown decoration of the Monsieur watch, symbolizing authority and strength. The lion totem has also become the representative mark of all Chanel-made high-end watch movements. The first elegant feature is the instantaneous jumping time, which requires perfect control of the micro-vibration and power consumption caused by the aluminum hour dial. Tandem double barrels give Monsieur de Chanel a power reserve of up to 3 days. Another watchmaking technique is a 240 ° retrograde minute design that combines meticulous and precise aesthetics with technical performance on the faceplate. The two-way retrograde minute correction function also reflects one of the elements of the brand’s vision for fine watchmaking, allowing the wearer to easily adjust the watch.

The first elegant feature of the faceplate is instantaneous jumping time, and another watchmaking skill is a 240 ° retrograde minute design that combines meticulous and precise aesthetics and technical performance on the faceplate. The two-way correction function of the retrograde minute reflects the Brand vision for fine watchmaking

The treasures bred by these watchmaking technologies require a precisely crafted case to carry them perfectly. Therefore, the Monsieur watch uses a new special 40mm round case, and the choice of round is the insistence of Chanel watch design studio on aesthetic concepts. In this watch, removing any unnecessary elements is self-evident for pure pursuit.

The bottom of the cover like a ‘glass box’ is a black face plate, forming perfect protection, and the slightly domed sapphire crystal mirror surface subtly reflects the light effect. The configuration of the dual complicated function mechanism on the face plate (the time jumping function is located at 6 o’clock and the off-center 240-degree retrograde minute hand), together with the unique font designed for the time-mark display, make the new Monsieur watch stand out. different. The calm simplicity of the face plate contrasts with the movement design of the extremely architectural structure, which is a precious crystal inspired by Chanel’s uncompromising creative process.

In 2000, the well-known French super running brand Bugatti (Bugatti) has been looking for a watchmaking brand that can meet its strict standards and develop a strong cooperative relationship. The partner must be a young brand, and its founder can be personally involved and involved in its production process. In addition, this brand also needs to have the enthusiasm to climb the peak of craftsmanship, but at the same time have a keen artistic appreciation, and attach great importance to the elegance of design and appearance. Finally, the brand also needs to have an independent watch factory in order to provide the necessary production space for unlimited creative potential. All these conditions led Bugatti to choose Parmigiani because the brand met and exceeded all its expectations.

 Parmigiani Bugatti Aérolithe

 Since 2001, the Fleurier-based watchmaker has continuously created watches for the Bugatti collection. Unlike other brands, these watches only carry the logo of the car brand-they are more like It’s a car reborn in the form of a watch. This year, Parmigiani launched the latest collaboration watch of the two major brands-Bugatti Aérolithe.

 A legendary history of extraordinary models

 No car is more mysterious than the Bugatti Aérolithe. Following by Etori in 1935. Shortly after Ettore Bugatti’s first launch at the Paris Motor Show, the model disappeared from people’s field of vision, leaving only one photo, a few sketches, and memories of its extraordinary pale green. However, no one can forget the material used in this model: a magnesium alloy called ELEKTRON. ELEKTRON magnesium alloy caused a huge sensation that year, and even this avant-garde model was sometimes nicknamed ELEKTRON. The body of the Bugatti Aérolithe is extremely light, but it is so strong that it does not dent, and at the same time is extremely susceptible to fire and extremely volatile. Therefore, the assembly of automobiles has become a very delicate process. In the welding process of components, an alternative to the traditional process must be found. So Etori’s son Jean. Bugatti devised an ingenious assembly method. This solution had a huge impact on the formation of the car’s “futuristic” artistic appearance; in this solution, the body was designed into two longitudinal sections, and the two sections were riveted together by a “ridge seam” structure , And this ‘ridge seam’ extends from the front of the car to the back.

 Therefore, it can be said that it is the instability of the magnesium alloy-such an obstacle and a challenge that gave birth to the revolutionary design of the Bugatti Aérolithe model, and finally created a ‘futuristic’ artistic style of curved lines and a harmonious bump , Become a typical representative of the ‘streamline’ design trend. And, to this day, its noble elegance still makes you marvel. Although this first and only prototype has disappeared mysteriously, its inspiring creative inspiration will never die. The successor model of Bugatti Atlantic follows the prototype’s magnesium alloy body and ‘ridge seam’ structure, faithfully reproducing this genius idea of ​​the Molsheim family. Parmigiani has decided to build a Bugatti Aérolithe watch based on this long-lost mysterious image as a tribute to the pioneering work of this extraordinary series of models.

How to apply the essence of a car to a watch?

 It is this problem that constantly drives Parmigiani to study the design of the watch while creating the Bugatti series. This process is mainly about how to isolate the most amazing and unique feature of the car-whether it is shape, color or craftsmanship-and then apply this feature to the watch, regardless of any craftsmanship and space encountered during this period The problems must be overcome one by one. This depends on the ability to break through thinking.

 The distinctive feature of the Aérolithe model is the riveted structure that runs through the front and rear. It is the riveting structure that makes the body as a whole, solving the problem that magnesium cannot be welded. It is also the riveting structure that gives the car a unique personality and a smooth, futuristic, streamlined appearance. In view of this, it was finally decided to transplant this ‘ridge seam’ to the watch, and reproduce this feature on the four lugs respectively. In order to be consistent with the visual style of the Parmigiani brand, the contour of the lugs has not changed, but the surface is decorated with a ‘riveted structure’, which reflects the image. Bugatti’s genius design-the essence of the craft that made this model popular about 80 years ago.

 LES ARTISANS BOÎTIERS watchmaking factory

 Whenever Parmigiani starts designing new Bugatti watches, Les Artisans Boîtiers in La Chaux-de-Fonds is ready to take on new challenges. They know that before starting the project, before the designer’s ideas are converted into drawings, there are hours and hours of technical discussions waiting for them, and there are countless decisions waiting for them, but for this reason, the ideas on the drawings It can blossom and bear fruit, it can be transformed into a real watch, and it can be transformed into a free ride that breaks through any imagination.

 Parmigiani × Bugatti cross-border collaboration with ‘Aérolithe’ watch

 Taking this project as an example, after digital simulation, it was found that the titanium case of Bugatti Aérolithe could not be polished in accordance with the original design standards. The closed structure of the watch does not allow the tool to achieve the level of friction required to obtain the highest quality surface. This is by no means a small problem, because it is clear that the coordination of the entire watch, especially whether the lugs with riveted structure are highlighted (this is a reflection of the characteristics of the car), depends on the subtle changes in light, and only the appropriate Polishing can ensure this effect. Therefore, Les Artisans Boîtiers came up with an ingenious solution: to make a case with a circle of clearance on the base so that it has the required amount of friction to achieve all high-quality surfaces, and then use the ‘decorative’ ring The gaps are hidden to ensure that the watch fits tightly.

 In this way, the original problem has become the aesthetic characteristics of the watch. Thanks to this titanium ring, more changes can be made in the texture and color of the watch, and at the same time, the process of perfecting the surface can be completed. Just as the birth of the riveted structure on the car was originally to solve the welding problem, but it has become a unique feature of the model-the birth of the titanium ring was originally to solve the problem that cannot be polished. The aesthetic highlights are truly the same.

 Dark blue and bright red

 ‘Dark blue’-the most mysterious and charming color, and of course the most difficult to obtain. For an extraordinary and unique watch like Bugatti Aérolithe, how can it resist the temptation of this charming color-the watch dial uses this deep blue. The task of creating ‘dark blue’ finally fell to the Quadrance et Habillage watch factory, which is a professional dial craft factory. They immersed the dial in a galvanic bath to obtain this shade under highly sensitive conditions. After electrolytic reaction (actually ion exchange), a salt is obtained, and this salt is deposited on the dial material, which finally forms this hard-to-find dark blue. The real challenge is to ensure the repeatability of the entire process, as the plating bath changes after each exposure. In order to perfectly repeat this process and ensure the consistency of all watches in the entire series, the most critical thing is to calculate and control the principles, but also depend on the level of craftsmanship and sensitivity, which can only be obtained through experience accumulation . That’s why no factory outside of Quadrance et Habillage can reproduce this deep blue.

 On the dial of infinitely deep color, bright red hands match the red and black Bugatti logo at 6 o’clock. This contrast effect is further reflected in the Hermes embossed calfskin strap, the stitching of which uses the same bright red as the dial hands, and the gemstone blue of the strap itself complements each other. Finally, the buckle has also been completely redesigned, adopting the shape of the car grille-thus, the gene of the Bugatti car is fully displayed on the wearer’s wrist.

Flyback chronograph

 Flyback is a sophisticated and unique feature from aviation that allows the wearer to pause, reset and restart the chronograph stopwatch with a single touch. Initially, pilots used this function to accurately calculate the flight time for a specific voyage without losing even one second of precious flight time by operating the watch (on a traditional chronograph stopwatch, the same operation requires a total of two buttons) Press three down to finish). Like the car it mirrors, the Bugatti Aérolithe is equipped with a flyback module, offset by 180 degrees, which makes it easier to use. The buttons are located at 8 and 10 o’clock, instead of the traditional 2 and 4 o’clock position, because it can be operated with the thumb instead of the index finger, which is more convenient to use.

The case of the Bugatti Aérolithe is thinner than the case of other chronographs of the brand. The contour line has been redesigned to become slimmer and more elegant, echoing the car’s charming curve. The Bugatti Aérolithe watch refines the essence of the car, while retaining the essence of the Parmigiani watch; it not only shows the feat of craftsmanship, but also the spectacle of aesthetic creativity. The contour of this watch is the same as that of all other watches in the entire series, and the quality of its modified components also meets the brand’s strict standards. The Bugatti Aérolithe watch fully demonstrates all the potential of an independent watch factory. The development process of the watch fully reflects the legend of such a watchmaking center that was born after a perfect vertical merger and constitutes a physical enterprise of the watchmaking center. Always maintaining dialogue, mutual assistance and exchange of inspiration, this is also the source of Parma Gianni’s strong development.

January 14, 2019, Schaffhausen, Switzerland-IWC Schaffhausen will present its new pilot TOPGUN navy air combat unit at the Geneva International Horological Fair (SIHH) Watches. The IWC Pilot Series TOPGUN Naval Air Force Porcelain Titanium Double Seconds Chronograph Chronograph Watch is the brand’s first pilot series watch with a Ceratanium® case. The patented material independently developed by IWC is as light and strong as titanium and at the same time as hard and scratch-resistant as ceramic. IWC will also present for the first time a watch with a sand-colored ceramic case.

  IWC has been producing pilot TOPGUN watches since 2007. Its name is derived from the Strike Fighter Tactics Instructor Program of the US Air Force. This instructor course is dedicated to providing excellent naval pilots with flight technology and tactical training. Navy pilots need superb skills. For example, both the pilot and the airplane will experience strong acceleration during sharp turns. Spending several months at a time on an aircraft carrier can also cause loss of personnel and materials. Therefore, the pilot TOPGUN Naval Air Force series watches are especially made of sturdy materials such as ceramics and titanium to meet the specific requirements of first-class fighter pilots. For example, the matte black ceramic case ensures that pilots are not distracted by the sunlight reflected by the watch in flight. The hard, scratch-resistant ceramic is ideal for daily use in cramped aircraft cockpits and can withstand super G forces. Ceramics and titanium are also highly resistant to corrosion, protecting them from moisture and resisting salty sea air.

  ‘In the new Pilot TOPGUN Navy Air Combat Forces series, we have for the first time applied Ceratanium® to the Pilot’s Watches. This new material, independently developed by IWC, integrates both titanium and ceramic materials. The first time that the brand was able to present our Pilot’s Watch in an all-black design without coating. It includes all watch components such as buttons and pin buckles. The first sand-colored ceramic watch has the same color as the United States The navy pilot’s uniform is a perfect match, and we have thus proven IWC’s exceptional professionalism in materials, ”said Christoph Grainger-Herr, CEO of IWC Schaffhausen.

The pilot TOPGUN Navy Air Combat Force series includes the following models:
  The IWC Pilot’s Watch TOPGUN Naval Air Force Porcelain Titanium Double Seconds Chronograph Chronograph Watch (Model IW371815) is the brand’s first pilot series watch made of Ceratanium®.

Ceratanium® titanium case, black ceramic, black dial, black hands, rubber strap with fabric lining

  Ceratanium® independently developed by IWC is a pioneering and innovative composite material that perfectly combines the advantages of two materials, titanium and ceramic. This patented material is as lightweight as titanium and not easily damaged, while being as hard and scratch-resistant as ceramic. There are other features that set it apart: including excellent hypoallergenic properties, a high degree of corrosion resistance, and a unique matte black appearance.
  The base material of Ceratanium® is a special titanium alloy. The manufacturing process of this alloy involves many steps and is quite complicated because the raw materials must have ultra-high purity. The first is to make embryos to shape various watch case components. Then came the furnace fire. During this process, oxygen diffuses into the material, causing a phase change, and then the metal surface becomes a ceramic material. With this unique surface modification process, the material not only has the typical characteristics of ceramic hardness and scratch resistance, but also shows a striking and matt black.

  Unlike traditional coating processes such as DLC that are still in use today, the ceramic surface of Ceratanium® is not separated from its carrier like the former, but is permanently attached to the main material. In addition to its superior material properties, Ceratanium® matt black is also distinctive. As a result, five years of research and development have just begun, and customers’ desire for a ‘pure matte watch’ has been fulfilled. Ceratanium® will be used for the first time in the new IWC pilot series TOPGUN Navy Air Force watch, and it is also the first time that the brand has used this material for non-limited models. IWC pilot series TOPGUN Naval Air Force Porcelain Titanium Double Seconds Chronograph Chronograph Watch (Model IW371815) All case parts, including such as chronograph buttons and pin buckle, are made of this material, so that The appearance of the watch is pure matte black.
