Ultimate Adornment Timepiece by Harry Winston
An allegory of refined luxury is blowing gently over Harry Winston’s workshops, where the exquisite jewelry and watchmaking house is paying tribute to feather art and to Cluster, the three-dimensional setting invented by Mr. Harry Winston. This famous setting technique enables a combination of brilliant, pear and marquise-cut diamonds in a burst of spontaneous asymmetry.

Whether on mountain peaks or oceans, in forests or the urban jungle, the new Trekk Master by Roamer is your ultimate off-road companion. The dial combines digital and analogue display and incorporates a compass, an altimeter, a barometer and a thermometer to ensure peerless orientation and preparation.

Ball Watch Trainmaster Worldtime Chronograph
In 2010, BALL Watch Company was the premier watchmaker to present the first mechanical movement including a day and date function combined with a 24-hour time zone display. The “Engineer Master II Diver Worldtime” and “Trainmaster Worldtime” models were the first BALL timepieces to have a caliber with this new module developed specially in our workshops.
Ball Watch Trainmaster Worldtime Chronograph
To provide watches that can operate at the same time in the four corners of the globe for inveterate travellers and businessmen off to conquer the world, BALL Watch Company decided to extend its collection of a new model housing its universal time display module. In this way, BALL is offering a new tool that is able to display at any given moment the common denominator of all human beings, namely the passage of time and the value that each man and woman places on it.
In its absolute respect for the values of precision, reliability and tradition of the “Trainmaster” series, the Worldtime Chronograph thus provides a worthy addition to the BALL watches combining a day and date function with the time display in the 24 hour zones. Grafted onto an automatic ETA 7750 movement, a special module drives a disk engraved with the names of the planet’s main metropolises rotating automatically in the reverse direction to the hands, so that it simultaneously indicates the time in 24 different geographic zones. In this way, BALL Watch has relaunched the attraction for its chronograph range, ever a timeless watchmaking complication and one of the functions unanimously appreciated by mechanical timepiece aficionados. The Trainmaster Worldtime Chronograph therefore delivers the perfect combination of these two accomplished watchmaking complications. Continue Reading →
Maurice Lacroix Masterpiece Lune Rétrograde
Hewn in steel, the Masterpiece Lune Retrograde is a subtle fusion of contemporary spirit and experienced craftsmanship. Presenting two complications held in great esteem by Maurice Lacroix, the Masterpiece Lune Retrograde opts to capture time in a 43 mm diameter case, thus renewing its links with a more traditional size. Water resistant to 50 meters, it alternates satin and polished finishes without ostentation, displaying its craftsmanship with impressive clarity. A deep sense of authenticity springs from its blue dial, imbuing time with unquestionable maturity.
Maurice Lacroix Masterpiece Lune Rétrograde
The slightly raised time markers – subtle despite their high-tech engineering – are emphasized by the satin sunburst finish of the dial whose royal blue testifies to the nobility of their craftsmanship. Encircled by a hand display marking the days of the week, the moon asserts itself at 6 o’clock. It turns on a black disk in striking chiaroscuro, as if the skies themselves were within reach. The calendar is housed at 10 o’clock in a wide retrograde arch, while the power reserve is dynamically displayed at 2 o’clock. Enhanced by a crescent of appliqué hour markers that gradually fan out, it evokes a real sense of movement. The hours and minutes adopt the traditional central position so as not to disturb the almost architectural balance of the piece. In a striking play of light, their slender hands are graced with a diamond finish enhanced still further by a slight curve, an additional detail that ensures complete legibility.

Rado True Thinline Automatic Skeleton – White Rubber
The True Thinline collection from Rado marked a new milestone in the history of time measurement with the world’s thinnest ceramic watch. In 2012, the Rado True Thinline Automatic Skeleton reminds us that beauty is about more than just size. For while the 7.8 mm profile is as impressive as ever, it is the heart of this timepiece that makes it truly unique. It boldy reveals its authenticity through an openwork dial that exposes the beating of the ETA 2892-S2 movement. Sensuality prevails in the ceramic of the case set against the rubber of the strap, both of which ensure qualities of solidity and comfort. Blue hands illuminate this monochrome picture and add to its striking personality. (swisstime)
