The dark elegance of the Replica Cartier Santos 100 Carbon

Maybe you have forgotten that Cartier’s only men’s release of 2016 was the Drive de Cartier. But in addition to this handsome new collection Cartier decided to revive one of the dark horses of their collection – the Replica Santos 100 Carbon.

Until 2012, if the regular metal versions of the Santos weren’t your thing, you could opt for a version decked out in ADLC (amorphous diamond-like carbon). This year Cartier has reintroduced the replica Carbon Santos 100 in the tough-looking (and virtually scratch-proof) black ADLC coating. What’s different this time around? Well, now you get the in-house 1847 MC automatic movement, which adds value and shows that Cartier is still committed to integrate manufacture movements across their collections.

Cartier is renowned for its replica square and rectangular timepieces, and aside from the Tank, the Santos 100 is one of their most iconic designs. The Santos was designed for pioneering aviator Albert Santos Dumont, who wanted to be able to tell the time while flying back in 1904 – so simplicity and maximum legibility was front of mind. These day’s it’s often the model for those that are looking for something a little bolder, and at 51.1mm by 41.3mm the Santos 100 is plenty bold. But even though the watch is fully blacked out, it’s unmistakably Cartier. Bringing the black Santos 100 back makes perfect sense when you think about it. This casually replica elegant watch, with its textile strap and popping red second hand, offers a dark counterpoint to the Drive de Cartier’s dressy elegance.

5 times Replica Rolex helped to make the world a better place (for more than just your wrist)

Do you think that watch brands don’t change the world? Sure, it’s easy enough to create a limited edition watch that raises funds and awareness, but as for true and lasting change for the better…? Very rare.

That might be a fair generalisation for many luxury watch brands, but this style of one-off, often half hearted corporate social responsibility has never been the fake Rolex way. Instead, for the last 40 years, replica Rolex has been supporting enterprising individuals working on scientific and technological innovations, preserving imperiled ecosystems and endangered species, as well as preserving culture and working to improve the quality of life in developing countries. The program through which this important work is done is the Rolex Awards for Enterprise. The awards started in 1976, as a single event to celebrate 50 years of replica Rolex’s own innovation, specifically the waterproof Oyster case. The Awards proved so popular that 40 years on, the programme is still running.

How do these lofty aims of social and environmental change translate to real-world outcomes? The numbers speak for themselves. Since the inception of the Awards 33,000 people from over 190 countries have applied, and 140 laureates have been selected. These laureates have worked on projects benefitting millions of people in 60 countries across the globe. Rolex breaks down the awards across five broad categories – so today we examine a case study from each, and just because, we’ve paired each with an appropriate watch.

Science and health – Mark Kendall and the Nanopatch

Kicking things off with a local, Australian biomedical engineer Mark Kendell, a 2012 Laureate, has revolutionised immunisation with his Nanopatch. This ingenious method of vaccine delivery allows for smaller doses, simpler application and doesn’t require refrigeration. Currently in clinical trials with the World Health Organisation, this tiny square has the potential to save the lives of the 17 million people who die from infectious diseases every year.

The Milgauss

The fake Milgauss is Rolex’s scientific timepiece, its movement protected against highly magnetic fields by a Faraday cage. Even though it’s technical, it’s far from boring – the blue dial, orange highlights and lightning shaped second hand makes it one of the most downright fun models in Rolex’s catalogue.

Exploration – Lonnie Dupre and Arctic exploration

American-born Lonnie Dupre has witnessed global warming firsthand. Over the last 25 years, Dupre has travelled more than 24,000 kilometres through high Arctic and polar landscapes, including the unsupported 2005 expedition that was the first to reach the North Pole in summer, alerting millions to the real and present dangers of climate change.

The Explorer II

First released in 1971, the replica Explorer II adds a GMT hand and a fixed 24-hour bezel to the already robust Oyster case. And though it comes in a black dial variant, for polar exploration it’s hard to go past the white dial.

Environment – Michel Terrasse and vultures

In the middle of last century, vultures were nearly extinct on mainland Europe, largely due to the fear and mistrust which caused them to be a popular target for hunters. Michel Terrasse, a fake Rolex Laureate in 1984, has been working for the last 35 years to protect these birds. Vultures are now protected by law in Europe and today there are around 20,000 breeding pairs of griffon vultures on the continent.

The Explorer

With an enviable history of actual exploration, the replica Explorer is a refreshingly understated tool watch. At 39mm across it’s as comfortable in a chic bar or a windswept mountaintop.

Cultural heritage – Runa Kahn and the boats of Bangladesh

Boats are important in Bangladesh and increasingly these watercraft are of the diesel-powered variety. Runa Kahn, a 2006 Associate Laureate founded the NGO Friendship, which has worked to preserve traditional wooden boats, and the skills involved in their construction. In addition to preserving the marine heritage of Bangladesh, Friendship provides direct healthcare to 250,000 people a month.

The Submariner

The AAA+ Submariner is the undisputed king of the seas, so it’s the logical choice for anyone who lives on the waves. And while it comes in numerous colours and versions, it’s hard to beat the original black.

Applied technology – Mohammed Bah Abba and his desert refrigerator

Bah Abba’s pot-in-pot desert refrigerator is an ingenious, simple invention that has made a very real impact on the livelihood and wellbeing of thousands of people across Africa. The simple system of two pots, with a layer of damp sand between, was developed to improve the longevity of farmers crops in Nigeria. In trials it kept eggplants fresh for 27 days, compared to three days in natural conditions. With the help of Rolex, Bah Abba (who passed away in 2010) distributed almost 100,000 pots across sub-Saharan Africa, and his design has been adapted for various uses across the continent.

The GMT-Master II

Combining the toughness of Rolex’s professional line with the utility of a second time zone, the high quality replica GMT-Master II is the perfect complement to Bah Abba’s functional take on a fridge.

IWC get busy with the high quality fake Timezoner Chronograph

Editor’s Note: IWC’s new replica range of Swiss made Pilot watches are a symphony in simplicity and an exercise in restraint – such straight-up clean dials and displays. En masse they shoot the pilot watch paradigm out of the sky. Which is why the contrast with the best replica Timezoner Chronograph continues to titillate. The busy, function packed dashboard of a dial and neat bezel party trick sure offer another way to fly…

IWC Schaffhausen’s fakeTimezoner Chronograph is a good-looking watch that packs an impressively technical punch. On the face of it it’s a replica chronograph with a worldtime function. This could have been an overly complex watch, but the reference 3950 is also one of the most user-friendly we’ve seen in a long time – featuring a clever mechanism that allows you to adjust both home time and the 24-hour second time zones with a simple twist of the bezel.

Of all the 24 pilot’s fake watches IWC released this year (that includes completely new watches and relatively minor upgrades to existing models) the highly technical Timezoner is the most obvious choice for frequent travellers or, of course, pilots not wanting to lose track of time while away from home. It’s certainly IWC’s most ingenious release of the year, pairing the brand’s in-house column-wheel aaa+ chronograph movement with stacked totalisers at the top of the dial with the bezel-controlled second time zone, demonstrated in the below video.

If you’ve ever been frustrated fiddling with crowns, this bezel is a revelation. The spring mounted city ring is a joy to use. It’s a patented IWC system that builds on technology initially pioneered and developed by Michael Vogt, founder of Vogard Watches. IWC has taken this technology, re-engineered it and incorporated its own innovations, notably the spring mounted rotating ring and the linked internal/external bezel seen in the latest Aquatimer collection.

The fake Timezoner Chronograph shares the same visual language as other watches in the Pilot’s collection, but in reality this 45mm watch wears far more modern and intuitive than its simpler brethren. If the rest of IWC’s Pilot’s collection is inspired by Spitfires and Hurricanes, the Timezoner is more suited to the cockpit of the Airbus A380 – big, complex and unquestionably state-of-the-art.

THE HIGH QUALITY REPLICA BAUME MERCIER – CAPELAND CHRONOGRAPH FLYBACK PASSIONE ENGADINA

The event from August 19^th to 21^st paid tribute to Alfa Romeo and one of the sponsors, Baume & Mercier, has devoted a limited edition replica watch to it: the Capeland Chronograph Flyback Passione Engadina.The fifth Passione Engadina race brings Italian vintage cars together to drive from Saint Moritz to the Engadin in the Swiss Alps.

Not only is the vintage-style replica watch inspired by a 1948 Baume & Mercier mono-pusher chronograph but it also has a cool retro domed white matt dial. The Breguet Arabic numerals are tracked by blue steel “pomme” hands whilst the telemeter and tachymeter scales glow blue and red.

The 44mm steel case houses the self-winding La Joux-Perret 8147-2 calibre which powers the time, date (at 4.30 on the dial) and flyback chronograph functions.

HIGH QUALITY REPLICA JAEGER-LECOULTRE – REVERSO A ECLIPSE TRIBUTE TO VINCENT VAN GOGH

Jaeger-LeCoultre has put all its artisan and artistic expertise into the Reverso à Eclipse Tribute to Vincent van Gogh to celebrate the work of the fascinating post-Impressionist painter in collaboration with the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam.

This enamel miniature can be concealed or revealed when you want. Just turn the small notched wheel at 1 on the platinum case (46.5×29.25mm) and two silver shutters bearing the hour numerals will open to reveal the picture.There are just 4 of this majestic piece available whose dial depicts the famous “Self-Portrait” painted in Paris between 1887 and 1888. Vincent van Gogh (1853-1890) is portrayed in blue pea jacket with his easel, palette and brush in hand.

The manual wind JLC 849 calibre fuels the 35-hour power reserve and hours and minutes tracked by two black hands on the dial.

AEROWATCH REVIEW – HIGH QUALITY REPLICA HERITAGE SLIM

Heritage for its classic design inspired by the past; Slim because its 40mm case is just 9.18mm thick.The decade-long trend for chunky macho replica watches is gradually turning on its head with smaller, more refined, classic and stylish unisex pieces just like the new Heritage Slim collection by Aerowatch.

The domed dial comes in two hues: inky anthracite grey or silver with a brushed or sunburst finish. It features applied hour markers and two rose gold baton-shape hands. A gold-rimmed display at 6 houses the black-on-white date.

The case comes in polished steel, rose gold or two-tone PVD-coated steel (gold bezel and crown). The self-winding Sellita SW300 calibre brings to life the hours, minutes, date display and 42-hour power reserve.

High Qaulity Replica Watch : Hermès–We fight over the new grey-dialled Slim d’Hermès

The story in a second

Hermès might be better known for its much-coveted Birkin bags than high-end horology, but the Slim d’Hermès looks set to change all that. First unveiled in 2015, the replica watch has evolved this year with two new dial variants in slate grey and blue – and when we tried to assign this piece, both Ceri and Felix wanted it, and wouldn’t let it go. Our first solution was to let them wrestle it out on the office floor, which would have produced some compelling video footage, but then we remembered we’re grown-ups. So, instead, here they are comparing notes on how the French house’s confident, characterful timepiece might well be the start of a new chapter when it comes to fashion brands playing in the replica watch world.

With a slender profile, top-notch movement and a dial to die for, the Slim d’Hermès has a lot more going for it than just the name.

The case

Felix Scholz: This isn’t a bad thing. Prior to the Slim, I’m guessing the largest market for Hermès replica watches would have been people who loved the brand first and foremost. This replica watch is different – it’s a legitimate and interesting alternative to offerings from Piaget, JLC, Cartier et al. Hermès has made a few interesting replica watches in their time, notably the Dressage L’Heure Masquée, Le Temps Suspendu and the Arceau – and the super-straight Slim plays it safe in comparison.

Ceri David: Sleek and minimal, as the name suggests, it’s by no means flat, and it definitely has presence on the wrist. I found the 39.5mm to be a fairly unisex size, though Hermès also offers a smaller version with a white dial, for the really teensy-wristed. I prefer more of a statement, myself, so I could see myself buying this model for my husband on the (unstated) proviso I could borrow it from time to time.I agree, it’s brilliant to see how well this has been executed. Far from the concept of just a ‘fashion replica watch’ – which was never much more than an accessory – this is the genuine article.

The dial

CD: There’s a real sense of space on this dial, which is uncluttered without venturing into ‘boring’. A lot of that is down to to the font – created for Hermès by French graphic designer Philippe Apeloig – which is just beautiful, really expressing the artistic playfulness the brand is known for. Seriously, I could gaze at that number 3 forever. Meanwhile, the minute markers make it easy to tell the time at a glance, so it’s far from just pretty.

FS: True – that typeface is the real standout of this replica watch, and it goes to show what’s possible when you design a classical replica watch without the constraints associated with a few hundred years of Swiss tradition. That’s why, for me, big fashion houses like Hermès, Louis Vuitton and Chanel are a breath of fresh air in high-end replica watchmaking at the moment. But even if we took the typeface away, the dial holds up. The slender hands are the perfect length and razor sharp, and there’s a good mix of dial textures – concentric circles in the centre and subdial contrasting with radial sunburst in the outer dial section.

The movement

FS: Happily, to go with a dial and case this accomplished, the movement is just as impressive. The H1950 is the brand’s own calibre, developed by Fleurier-based Vaucher – a high-end movement maker that Hermès happens to own a 25% stake in (Parmigiani’s parent company owns the remainder). The micro-rotor powered H1950 is a far cry from the stock ETA movement you might expect a fashion house to use, coming in at an impressively svelte 2.6mm high. Power reserve is 42 hours, and it looks lovely, thanks to the hand-chamfered edges and decidedly non-traditional ‘H’ motif.

CD: I’ll defer to you when it comes to the mechanics, but it’s fair to say the movement looks good too, right? I love that when you flip the replica watch over, the art-deco vibe continues thanks to all the minuscule H’s etched across the components. Some people (watch purists, perhaps?) might find this too busy. I think it’s really striking.

The strap

CD: With the brand’s roots in saddlery and equestrian goods (leather and buckles and straps, oh my) you’d expect perfection here. And that’s what you get, in soft, supple, matt graphite alligator lined with the traditional Hermès burnt orange. And there’s no new-fangled deployant. Just an elegant, stirrup-inspired buckle, with a curve that hugs the wrist.

FS: Sadly I’m not as familiar with Hermès leather goods as I’d like to be, but I’ve encountered a few replica watch straps in my time, and this is one of the nicest I’ve handled – certainly the best ‘stock’ alligator strap. You pay a premium for Hermès leather, but based on this I can see why.

The verdict

CD: This is a beautiful match for a well-tailored suit, whether for work or something more formal in the evening, but I’d say it would add a very polished finishing touch to a casual weekend outfit, too. And by the way, that means a fine-gauge polo shirt and chinos – not boardies and Crocs. Still, surprisingly versatile for a dress replica watch.

FS: Hermès has hit all the right notes here – the Slim has a distinct personality and style that clearly sets it apart from the mainstream of Swiss replica watchmaking, but has the quality and finishing to directly compete. All up it’s a compelling offering. If I was in the market for a slim dress replica watch at this price point, I’d consider it.

News : High quality replica Omega launches eyewear collection

Across all brands, Marcolin produced a staggering 14.3 million eyeglasses in 2015. Each model of Omega sunglasses will be made in Italy and come in two sizes and colour variations. We received a pair of the Wayfarer style sport sunglasses in Rio recently and noted the obvious quality of the glasses (the lenses are polarised and deflected the glare from the canoe slalom perfectly) as well as some interesting design nuances, including the Omega logo which has been integrated to form both a bridge and the nose padsOmega is launching its first eyewear collection for men and women in partnership with Italian eyewear powerhouse Marcolin, the group behind brands such as Tom Ford and Balenciaga.

The famous ticking of the first High Quality Swatch replica watches – POP

And you grew up to the sound of the famous ticking of the first Swatch replica watches, and in particular the POP collection, a series of replica watches with outrageously flashy colours and giant faces for the time, which you could wear on your wrist or clip on your t-shirt.If you are a fortysomething, you probably spent your teenage years listening to Madonna and dancing to Michael Jackson. Perhaps you even attempted to imitate his famous moonwalk in front of your bathroom mirror.

For the teenager still inside us and most of all for our children, Swatch has given its POP collection a new lease of life with some brand new models. They are still just as colourful, and highly graphic – particularly the black and white models – with plastic cases measuring 45mm in diameter. They can be worn on the wrist with a silicon strap or as a necklace on a chain.

High Quality Replica Montblanc – Sitting on Top of The World

After the trio’s American adventure, a fountain pen with a built-in ink well was born and revolutionised writing. Four years on and the company was named Montblanc in tribute to the three founders’ demanding quality standards and the highest peak in Europe at 4810m.The story of Montblanc is among the most fascinating, especially if you’re a fountain pen enthusiast like me. It began in 1906, 110 years ago, when an engineer, banker and specialist stationery salesman from Hamburg and Berlin set sail to the USA.

Cross oceans, climb mont Blanc

It honours not only the memory of the Hamburg brand’s founders but also the golden age of ferries, 110 years of German engineering and Europe’s summit.Without the ferry boom in the early 20^thcentury following innovations such as the steam engine and steel hulls, transatlantic boat journeys wouldn’t exist, Hamburg wouldn’t have become a major port city and our three German entrepreneurs wouldn’t have been able to visit the US. The 4810 collection, launched in 2006 but with fresh technical and design features in 2016, is like a multiple celebration.

Make a birthday wish, celebrate life

The exclusive limited edition timepieces have been launched to celebrate the 110^th anniversary including one available in three versions. The self-winding trio (two wristwatches and one pocket replica watch) embody Montblanc’s technical skills thanks mainly to Minerva’s experience.

In terms of design, the 4810 collection has a new dial which now bears the German brand’s logo on most models, has Roman numerals on its hour rim and a more streamlined case and lugs.

See the world

You could sum up the Montblanc 4810 ExoTourbillon Slim 110 Years Edition as “wearing the world on your wrist”. The top of the dial bears a miniature painting of a continent beneath openwork hour and minute hands. There are three versions of this 42mm white gold model for a different part of the globe: North America (36 pieces), Europe (36 pieces) and Asia (38 pieces). The famous ExoTourbillon and its red seconds hand beat at the bottom of the dial surrounded by a Côtes de Genève pattern. The tourbillon and time functions are brought to life by the MB 29.24 calibre which provides a 50-hour power reserve.

Master time

The flyback chronograph with a blue seconds hand and gold minute hand enables you to time, stop, reset and restart the replica watch using the pushers on the case side. Add to that a second time zone and you’ve got a must-have and exclusive piece of kit with only 1110 available: Montblanc 4810 TwinFly Chronograph 110 Years Edition. The engraving on its silver dial is reminiscent of the Hamburg brand’s white star, the shape formed by mont Blanc and its six valleys from above. The almost floral waves are edged by gold Roman numerals and hour markers as well as a highly accurate minute track. A group of rose gold luminescent hands in the centre track the hours and minutes whilst a blue skeleton hand displays the second time zone. The seconds counter appears at 6 o’ clock next to the date display.

Go globetrotting

Montblanc has put passion into its first pocket replica watch, the limited edition Montblanc 4810 Orbis Terrarum Pocket Replica Watch 110 Years Edition (110 available) designed for globetrotters. Its steel 53mm Lépine-style case has a ferry engraved on the back; it houses the MB 29.20 calibre which provides a 42-hour power reserve and brings to life the “simple” and world time functions with 24 hour time zones and a day/night indicator. The dial is layer upon layer of rotating sapphire discs which display the map of continents as seen from the North Pole in the centre, then day moving into night and vice versa plus a ring with the names of 24 cities to match different time zones. Home time is easy to set using a pusher between 5 and 6 to position the chosen city at 6 o’ clock opposite the red hand.
