High-tech materials
Blackened titanium plays the starring role. This ultra-light material has been chosen for the case and the surrounding elements: studs, pushpieces and pushpiece guards, crown and oversized strap buckle. The same goes for the medallion back featuring a special non-slip texture. Titanium also shows up on the lower part of the octagonal bezel, while its upper part opts for ceramics. The latter is distinguished by clearly marked vertical grooves reminiscent of the characteristic satin finish of the Royal Oak Offshore collection.

DAVOSA Skeleton Limited Edition

08:47:57 am | Categories: DAVOSA | 133 views

Skeleton watches have a long tradition in watchmaking. They enjoyed great popularity in the mid nineteenth century, providing as they do a fascinating glimpse of the inner workings and movements of the timepiece.

DAVOSA Skeleton Limited Edition (Ref. 161.005.15)
DAVOSA Skeleton
Ref. 161.005.15

Not much has changed in this respect over the years. This miniature mechanical world continues to fascinate. This year this fascination comes in the form of the 500-piece DAVOSA Skeleton Automatic limited edition series.

The simple, three-part, polished stainless steel case with a 40mm diameter strikes a reserved note. Instead the mechanics take centre stage. A finely finished ETA calibre 2824-2 with blued screws, pearlised bridges and a rhodinised surface can be observed in its rest and active phases through the generous glass cover.

Daniel Roth Papillon Chronograph - The flight of time

08:23:41 am | Categories: Daniel Roth | 106 views

Chronographs are currently enjoying a major comeback as the useful complication and a significant token of horological expertise. Sensitive to this renewed interest, Daniel Roth proudly introduces the first ever chronograph version of its iconic Papillon watch: the Papillon Chronograph.

The makings of an icon
First, however, a brief historical reminder is in order. Introduced in 1999 as part of celebrations for the 10th anniversary of the Daniel Roth brand, the first edition of the Papillon created a considerable stir among watch connoisseurs. Its blend of aesthetic and technical innovations eloquently illustrated the distinctive features of the Daniel Roth approach to watchmaking, combining prestigious traditions and techniques with groundbreaking design.

Issued in a limited edition of 250 watches, all of which were sold, the Papillon was subsequently revisited by Daniel Roth in 2005. Powered like its predecessor by an ultra-thin self-winding Girard-Perregaux movement and capable of accommodating the additional modules for the complications developed and manufactured by the Daniel Roth engineers, technicians and watchmakers, it is naturally finished entirely at the Manufacture Daniel Roth in Le Sentier. This excellent calibre is housed in the new version of the brand’s signature ellipsocurvex case ensuring an optimal fit on the wrist. A polished “cover” encloses the upper part of the watch, the smooth surface of which is broken only by the jump hour window and a smaller central seconds window. Meanwhile, a “smile-shaped” display extending over the entire lower part of the dial enables one to follow the intricate workings of the fascinating minute-hand mechanism in operation.

DEWITT PAYS TRIBUTE TO WATCHMAKING CRAFTSMANSHIP

07:55:04 am | Categories: DeWitt | 122 views

Montres DeWitt is delighted to announce the inauguration of its own Museum, devoted to the history of watchmaking craftsmanship, in its new premises in Meyrin-Satigny, where the haute horlogerie firm moved at the start of the year. The new museum reflects the lifetime passion that Jérôme de Witt, the Brand’s Founder and Ambassador, has always felt for mechanical watchmaking.

The DeWitt Museum, situated near the reception area at the entrance to the building, takes visitors on a fascinating voyage through watchmaking history. The stylish Museum, decorated in soft, warm tones, showcases one the world’s largest collections of tools and machinery – over 250 items in all – retracing nearly three centuries of watchmaking craftsmanship.

This extraordinary ensemble was acquired by Jérôme de Witt over a number of years, both at auction and during visits to craftsmen’s workshops. The museum’s exhibits range from the 17th to early 20th centuries – a period when watchmaking was carried out entirely by hand. The aesthetically displayed tools and machinery highlight Switzerland’s heritage of watchmaking craftsmanship, with a step-by-step presentation of the traditional manufacturing stages (some now abandoned due to industrialization) of mechanical timepieces.
