Up Close with Longines Heritage Military COSD Replica Watch

By Admin on November 27, 2014

Modelled on a watch made for Second World War British special forces, the Heritage Military COSD replica watch sticks to the formula that has made Longines’ vintage remakes a success.

Longines has a pretty good track record with its historical remakes, particularly those modelled on vintage military or sports watches. The latest addition to the Longines Heritage replica watch line is the Military COSD, a compact watch that’s inspired by a distinctive timepiece made for the British commandos during the Second World War.

The original COSD wristwatch was made for the Combined Operations Supply Depot, and not the “Company Ordnance Supply Depot” as it has been mistaken for. COSD was the outfit that supplied materiel to the Combined Operations Headquarters, set up by the British War Office during the Second World War to strike German military installations in Occupied Europe with lightning amphibious raids. Notably, the second commander of Combined Operations was Lord Louis Mountbatten, famous for being the last Viceroy of India.

Like all remakes, the Longines Heritage Military COSD replica watch has been enlarged to suit modern tastes. Measuring 40 mm in diameter, it’s much larger than the 35 mm original, but still smallish by modern standards. And because of the wide bezel, the Longines Heritage Military COSD replica watch seems smaller than it is on the wrist. The steel case is entirely polished, giving it a shiny appearance that’s slightly at odds with the military look. It’s hard to discern what finish was originally applied to the vintage COSD watches, but they likely had a matte finish.

Two dial variants of the Longines Heritage Military COSD replica watch are available, including an off-white with blued steel hands that’s similar to the 1940s original and the more authentic of the pair. The other is black with white hands, giving it a look closer to the typical military watch and one that’s probably most acceptable to someone looking for a military-style watch. Both dials have an identical layout, including the broad arrow logo, used to mark British government property even today. Like nearly all Longines remakes, the COSD has a date window at three o’clock, a modern convenience that is completely incongruous with the historical look but inevitable.

Show You The Roger Dubuis Excalibur Star Of Infinity Replica

By Admin on November 22, 2014

The spectacular, and horologically interesting double tourbillon evolved once again. I photographed the Roger Dubuis Excalibur Double Tourbillon Replica for Revolution Magazine and showed the off-take photographs here. To that already incredible base, Roger Dubuis now adds some brilliants.

The star shaped bridge, is made more obvious by encrusting it with magnificent diamonds (34 diamonds on the star), and the other bridges are made rhodium black to allow the star to shine even brighter. The way the diamonds are worked into the design is very artful and aesthetically pleasing. A total of 312 diamonds weing a total of 15 carats are added.

We are rather impressed with how Roger Dubuis men’s replica inserted the brilliants. This is the new way of inserting diamonds into a replica watch, increasing its value, rather than the more traditional way of merely encrusting the case, bezel with baguette diamonds or creating a pave dial. Magnificent. This effect is definitely observable, even on the photographs.

The Roger Dubuis Star of Infinity. The jewel setting is very fine, and a huge number of carats lavished on a double tourbillon makes this a very extravagant, over the top bold replica watch. Catch phrases which Roger Dubuis use to describe herself.

A wallpaper sized image (1920pixels x 1200pixels) is available by clicking here. In so doing you agree to a zero cost license to use on the conditions that the use is limited only to non-profit, non-commercial personal purposes, and that you agree not to modify the image in any way.

The movement is the the RD01SQ, which is based on Roger Dubuis’s flagship Excalibur Double Tourbillon, and features a hand wound skeletonized movement with double tourbillons. The tourbillons both make 1 revolution every minute, and do so in the same direction. The stylized cage, showing the signature RD shape is magnificently black polished, and is mesmerising to the observer as it spins.

As with all Roger Dubuis offerings the Excalibur Star of Infinity is finished to Poinçon de Genève levels, and is accorded the seal.

The Excalibur case measures some 45mm in diameter and features the signature notched bezel and triple lugs. The replica watch sits quite comfortably on the wrist.

Presenting The New-Look Of Breitling Colt Replica Watch

By Admin on November 5, 2014

Breitling’s new take on the decades-old Colt is true to the original, with features that have become hallmarks of the brand. Here’s a hands-on review of the new-look Breitling Colt Replica.

Breitling Mens Replica revamped its entry-level Colt collection last year with a firm nod to the original series, introduced in the 1980s. Like the Chronomat and the Navitimer, the Colt was conceived as a military replica watch, with an emphasis on reliability and readability. Its 24-hour scale, aviator-style dial and broad, unidirectional bezel have come to define the unmistakable look of Breitling replica watches. The new collection is true to the original right down to the movements. Most of the new models contain quartz calibers, which dominated the replica watch world at the time of the Colt’s debut. We tested the sole mechanical version, with an automatic ETA caliber. An ETA movement was also used in the original series.

The new Colt Automatic resembles the Colt Superocean, which debuted in the mid-1990s and remained in the collection for several years. The new Colt replicates the old model’s screwable crown with protectors on both sides, pilot-style Arabic numerals and a broad, unidirectional bezel with engraved notches and raised cursors at the quarter hours. These cursors improve the grip on the bezel, making it easy to rotate even when you’re wearing gloves. They have become a characteristic feature of Breitling replica watches.

On the new Colt, the markings are precisely engraved into the satin-finished bezel, which slopes gently downward toward its outer rim. The bezel clicks through 120 steps compared to the 60 notches on the bezel of the Colt Super-ocean, even though the additional steps aren’t necessary for to-the-minute setting of a dive’s start time. The new Colt Automatic also repeats the Superocean’s 24-hour scale and rare 1/100s-hour scale, described as an “aeronautic hundredths scale.”

The Colt Automatic’s 200-meter water resistance falls short of the earlier model’s 1,000-meter depth rating, but still offers plenty of water resistance for a divers’ replica watch. A sturdy, stainless-steel case with a doubly insulated back helps keep the replica watch intact in deep dives. The Professional III stainless-steel bracelet is equipped with a safety catch and a folding clasp that hinges open on one side. The bracelet, the Professional III, can be adjusted at the clasp or by removing screwed links at either end of the clasp. The replica watch can also be worn on a leather strap or on either an Ocean Racer or Diver Pro rubber strap.

Any of these would make the replica watch lighter than the 194 grams it weighs on a stainless-steel bracelet. (Despite being relatively heavy, the replica watch is quite comfortable to wear.) The leather strap is pleasantly supple, but its buckle seems a bit rickety.

In its guise as Breitling Caliber 17, the ETA 2824-2 in the new Colt is only moderately adorned, but has earned chronometer certification. The Colt’s average rate was almost entirely free of deviations when tested on our electronic timing machine with the mainspring fully wound and after running for 24 hours. On the wrist, the replica watch ran 1 second slow. This slight sluggishness persisted day after day, but the 1-second deviation falls within the chronometric tolerance range. Notably, there was a large difference between the rates with dial up and crown down after the replica watch had run for 24 hours. We also noted a difference in the amplitudes, which in the hanging positions declined by nearly 60 degrees within the span of one day. That is a large dip, but the average rate remained unaffected by the decrease and is commendable overall.

The dial shows everything the ETA Caliber 2824-2 has to offer, including hour, minute, sweep seconds hand and date, but the Colt can perform additional functions. Just inside the hour ring is another scale, calibrated from 13 to 24, recalling Breitling’s heritage as a maker of aviator replica watches and their standard 24-hour scales. On the flange at the perimeter of the dial there is a scale that divides an hour into 100 units. Each unit, 36 seconds long, is known as an “industrial” minute. This type of time measurement has various industrial applications, including denoting working hours. Three hours and 15 minutes, for example, would be expressed as 3.25 hours rather than as 3:15.

Corum Heritage Bubble Replica Watch Review

By Admin on November 1, 2014

At Baselworld 2000 Corum introduced the Bubble, an over sized 44 mm replica watch with an even larger crystal, so tall that it distorted the dial. It was an instant success.

The Corum Heritage Bubble replica watch has now been revived as part of the Corum Heritage collection. The new Bubble retains the design codes of the original.The diameter of the case has been enlarged to 47 mm while the thickness, sapphire crystal included, is 18.8 mm. The massive case is paired to short, curved lugs to fit the wrist more comfortably. The crystal alone is 8 mm high, one of the largest of any replica watch.

Acting as a lens, the crystal magnifies and distorts the dial of the Bubble replica watch. This peculiarity determines fascinating optical effects especially with the dials of the two Corum Bubble Heritage limited editions replica watch which are characterised by a decoration with squares in graduated sizes that grow larger toward the centre of the dial.

Even if this type of dial is perfectly flat, formed from a lacquered, brass disc stamped with the cube motif, it appears sharply domed.The Bubble All Black features a stainless steel case with a glossy black PVD coating, matched by a matte black dial, along with charcoal-coloured indices and hands.

The steel case of the Bubble Vintage replica has a particular bronze-tone PVD treatment combined to vintage Super-LumiNova treated hands and numerals.
All of the Bubble replica watch are fitted with rubber straps topped with calfskin leather for the two limited editions and alligator for the Squelette.
