Chopard Gran Turismo XL Alfa Romeo Watches

To further consolidate its long-term partnership with Gran Turismo, renowned Swiss watch manufacturer Chopard has created two new Gran Turismo XL Alfa Romeo watches-one three-hand model, and one chronograph model. This is the second time they makes special edition watches for the Italian car maker.

Basically, the new Chopard watches adopt same design solution. The chronograph model features standard three-subdials chronograph layout-the 30-minute counter at 12, the 12-hour counter at 6 and the running seconds at 9, while the three hand model has much simpler dial layout. Another difference is that the chronograph is available in two versions-one with polished stainless steel case, and the other with DLC-coated steel case.

Like most racing-car-inspired watches, the two watches have a a tachymeter scale on the bezel. The wearer can use it to caLculate the average speed.And they both sports a date window at 3’clock position. To optimize the reading of the date, a magnifying lens is fixed into the sapphire crystal that protects and enhances the legibility of the dial.

Powering these two watches is an automatic COSC-certified chronometer that is made in Switzerland and of adorable accuracy. And as a racing lover, I can not pick any flaw from their appearance, precision and overall finishing. Both models touch my soul at first sight.

The two Chopard Gran Turismo XL Alfa Romeo watches are limited to just 500 pieces. And the brand spices the dial up by providing a couple of goodies with each timepiece-a jet-black PVD-treated clock travel quartz alarm and a handsome quartz table clock in stainless steel.

In its long development, Omega has successfully launched countless masterpieces for both men and women. Today, let us have a review on several Omega wristwatches which come with their own uniqueness.


1. Omega skeleton tourbillon co-axis platinum wristwatch in limited edition
It is not difficult to find the wristwatches with skeleton tourbillons. However, the timepiece with skeleton tourbillon in the center is rare because it requires quite top techniques to finish. Thus, each Omega central tourbillon platinum wristwatch is produced in limited edition. The whole making process is charged by a certain watch maker and deserves 540 hours to finish.

Due to the special design, the main timing parts of the tourbillon movement are equipped in the titanium revolving frame which self rotates every 60 seconds so that they can shun the influence from the gravity. The hands are etched on the sapphire crystal glass and driven by the gear wheels around the glass. It seems enjoying the freedom rotating above the movement. At the sapphire back, there engraved the “Limited Edition” characters. This kind of wristwatch is produced in limited 18 pieces.

2. Brand-new Omega Speedmaster Lady Diamond Chronograph
This kind of wristwatch is popular for its stainless steel case at 38mm. Omega caliber 3304 movement is housed inside. At the position of 6 o’clock, there added the date window. What is more, 54 dazzling diamonds are encrusted on the 18k rose gold bezel. It is finished with the specially processed genuine grey crocodile leather strap.

3. Omega Constellation Baguette Lady Wristwatch
There is no denying that every constellation has its most outstanding star. Among so many styles of Omega watches, I especially like its constellation series. And Omega Constellation Baguette is the most luxurious. It is set in picturesque shape. Marvelous art achievement is brought by the diamonds paved on the MOP dial. It is driven by Omega co-axis Calibre 8421 movement. By the way, Omega co-axis technology is encountered in 1999 and has innovative meaning in the field of exquisite mechanical watches.

It not only proved its status in super thin watches but also refreshed your traditional image about watches by its unique design. The watch strap and case are integrated together with alternately bright and matte finish. By the first sight, you will mistake it as a bracelet instead of the wristwatch because it was inspired by polo. Since 1980s, Piaget began to establish a close relationship with polo and held the World Cup Polo Match as a sponsor.

For the loving and romantic Valentine’s Day, I suggest you to buy the platinum style with diamonds enchased. Seen from the appearance, it is exactly like the original Polo, really rare in limited edition of 150 with each one engraved unique item number. Its men style is equipped with Piaget 534P automatic mechanical movement and the ladies’ come with Piaget 690 quartz movement.

2.Blancpain Villeret, Super Thin Series
Villeret used to be name of Blancpain cradle, a small town. The reason why this series of wristwatches used this name is because Villeret series pop out the simplicity and generality of Blancpain. Seen from the appearance, it features simple lines and super thin watch case. Though there are no extra details or decorations, the inner structure is very particular. With the thickness of 3.25mm, the Villeret movement is ultimately accurate. It has a power reserved to 40 hours.

Actually, the customized Dior Christal Diamond series was launched by the woman designer, John Galliano, in 2005. This representative classic was inspired by the Rock & Roll star, Patti Smith. John Galliano cut the usual sapphire crystal which is usually used for watch glass making into pyramid shape then inlayed them on the strap and bezel, making Dior become the first watch brand which utilized sapphire crystal material into watch decoration. The watch bezel with irregular sapphire crystal reminds people to cherish time since it passes so quickly. The watch name, Dior Christal, is also very interesting. It is the compound word of Christian Dior and Crystal.

This year, the designer comes up with another novelty, using super large watch dial and super slim thickness to create a strong visional effect. Unimaginably, it is the convergence of masculine power and feminine charm. Similar to all Dior watches, it is enchased with the emblem sapphire crystal. The uniqueness of this 42mm automatic mechanical wristwatch relies on the innovative diamonds cut. Different from the formal design with all the diamonds cut in the same size, the new timepiece widened the diamonds in the central row to make the whole watch more powerful. In order to soften the toughness, designers especially changed the usual pyramid cut into roundness. Accented by the stainless steel sheen, it perfectly interprets the masculine beauty and neutral fashion.

Besides the black sapphire crystal style, it also comes with the luxury style with 190 brilliant diamonds enchased. The extraordinary ETA2824 automatic movement makes this kind of wristwatch fashionable and valuable, continuing to lead the neutral trend in the fashion circle. Such a masterpiece drives the fashionistas who are addicted in Dior magnificent design and professional movement mad.

1-3Imperial Customized Pocket Watches

Usually speaking, we can judge the value of antique watches from the aspects of style, appearance, brand, era and movement condition. Besides, the complicated function is one of the premises for their value increase. At the early 18 century, a large amount of mechanical timers were imported into China.  Therefore, Chinese mechanical watches started from that period. Due to the influence of those watches, Guangzhou gradually appeared watches making companies.  At the beginning, most of the products referred to replica watches. As the technology became more and more mature, the factories were able to successfully produce the precise watches with magnificent decoration.

Antique Couple Watch

If you are a collector of antique watches, there is one thing you have to keep in mind. The brand and shape decide the value of brand watches. The antique watches are rare top collections. For such kind of watches collection, the brand plays an important role. Usually, more famous it is, higher value it owns. And for the brand watches of the same brand, era decides the value. Older and rarer it is, more space for value increase. According to my investigation, the brand watches like Patek Philippe, Vacheron Constantin, Rolex and Omega can increase the prices to twice or three times through auction. If seen from the perspective of material, watches of platinum are the most expensive. Then 18K, 14K, 9K, silver, gold plated, silver plated and S/S follows one by one. For K gold materials, rose gold is the most expensive. Suppose all the watches are with the same premises, then watches with eccentric shapes are more expensive then the regular ones. For example, watches with square cases are dearer than those of round cases; oblong watches are dearer then square watches. Watches with triangle cases are even more expensive. Therefore, collecting various kinds of antique watches not just pops out the dignified identification of the collector. Their art value, economic value, and market potential are hard to evaluate.
