RICHARD MILLE – RM 27-04 TOURBILLON RAFAEL NADAL

CELEBRATING A 10-YEAR PARTNERSHIP

Manual winding tourbillon movement with hours and minutes
• Calibre can resist accelerations of over 12,000 g’s, a record for Richard Mille
• Case produced in a brand new material exclusive to the watchmaking brand: TitaCarb®
• Limited edition of 50 watches

Two men, each with a dream. A dream of pushing back the boundaries of time, or those of performance. One of them on clay, keeping his eyes on the ball; the other with his face turned to time itself. Yet both combine technique, harmony and accuracy while resisting the hard knocks, and inevitable shocks of sporting life.

For Rafael Nadal, ‘unstoppable’ is the word that best expresses the spirit of Richard Mille and his teams. Achieving the impossible. This has been the brand’s credo for the past decade in designing the unique pieces worn by the Spaniard on the world’s tennis courts. And the latest product of their partnership, the RM 27-04, is no exception to this golden rule.

The RM 27-04 balances a lightweight design–at 30 grams including the strap–with tremendous resistance. Its tourbillon calibre, which is suspended within the case, can resist accelerations of more than 12,000 g’s, a record for Richard Mille. The movement is entirely supported by a micro-blasted mesh just 855 square millimetres in surface, comprised of a single cable in braided steel measuring 0.27mm in diameter, and held in place by two tensioners in PVD-treated 5N gold. This construction is unprecedented in the world of watchmaking.

Inspired by the same principle as the strings of a tennis racquet, the watchmaker anchors the steel cable to a tensioner positioned at 5 o’clock and then begins to create the mesh, tying each of the main strings before adding the cross strings. Weaving above and below the main strings, the cable passes 38 times through the hollow bezel in grade 5 titanium before finishing in a tensioner positioned at 10 o’clock. The movement is positioned diagonally, connected to the mesh by five grade 5 polished titanium hooks with 5N gold PVD coating that extend from the back of the baseplate.

However, the singularities of the RM 27-04 do not end with its mesh. The case, with its sandblasted and polished surfaces, is also innovative in its use of an exclusive material, TitaCarb®. This highperformance polyamide has been strengthened with a 38.5% carbon fibre content.

This addition of carbon gives TitaCarb® exceptional tensile strength—370 MPa (3,700 kg/cm2)—making it one of the most resistant polymers in the world.

This new model fits in perfectly with the previous watch collections created for the Spanish champion. It is unique in more ways than one, as it also marks the 10th anniversary of the partnership between

Rafael Nadal and Richard Mille. Initially a purely professional rapport, the collaboration between the 12-time French Open winner and the founder of the brand that bears his name has since turned into a solid friendship. A ‘ very special’ relationship, according to the Majorcan, this friendship grows constantly from their mutual trust and admiration for their respective careers.

The RM 27-04 is the new ally on court for ‘ Rafa’, whose shortened version of his name is engraved on the case band. This watch, a limited edition of 50 pieces, will accompany Rafael Nadal in his quest for new trophies.

L.U.C XP Il Sarto Kiton

Con el reloj L.U.C XP Il Sarto Kiton, Chopard presenta su primera asociación con Kiton Ateliers, maestros de la sastrería italiana. Esta edición estrictamente limitada de 100 relojes ultradelgados de acero con revestimiento DLC y granallado está sobriamente ataviada con una esfera con diseño de pata de gallo y una correa de cachemira de color pizarra forrada con piel de aligátor roja. La excelencia mecánica está garantizada por el movimiento mecánico L.U.C 96.53-L con carga automática, equipado con un micro-rotor de tungsteno y tecnología Chopard Twin que asegura una reserva de marcha de más de dos días. Lo mejor de la Alta Relojería Suiza y la sprezzatura italiana.

L.U.C XP Il Sarto Kiton

La elegancia es cuestión de sencillez

Pericia

Conocido por su elegancia imbuida de un espíritu de pureza y simplicidad, el reloj ultradelgado L.U.C XP está elegantemente ataviado con un “traje” hecho a medida por los artesanos de Kiton Ateliers. El encuentro entre el relojero suizo y el modisto napolitano parece haber sido escrito en las estrellas. Ambos representantes de la familia Maisons comprometidos con la misma visión de la artesanía y la tradición, estos dos grandes nombres de la elegancia masculina han combinado su saber hacer para crear el reloj L.U.C XP Il Sarto Kiton. Por un lado, Karl-Friedrich Scheufele, copresidente de Chopard y responsable de la creación de Chopard Manufacture en 1996, con su visión de la alta relojería tradicional firmemente centrada en el mundo contemporáneo y las innovaciones del siglo XXI. Por otro lado, la fecunda creatividad de los discípulos de Ciro Paone, fundador de los ateliers Kiton en 1968, que creían que: “Los hombres son una fuente inagotable de inspiración, cada uno de sus pasos es una llamada a la creación”.

“LUC es una colección de relojes de Alta Relojería que destaca por su carácter distintivo. Nuestra asociación con Kiton es un movimiento completamente lógico, ya que a lo largo de los años nuestras dos familias Maisons han demostrado la excelencia de su artesanía y su fértil creatividad”, dice Karl-Friedrich Scheufele El resultado es un reloj muy exclusivo, producido en una edición limitada numerada de 100 piezas.

Seducir

En primer lugar, el L.U.C XP Il Sarto Kiton está perfectamente proporcionado gracias a una caja de 40 mm de diámetro con un grosor de tan solo 7,2 mm. Este look ultradelgado permite una auténtica comodidad al usuario e impone un aura de sencillez, dos imperativos que resumen la filosofía de la colección L.U.C y contribuyen a su elegancia, haciéndose eco del lema de Ciro Paone: “La elegancia debe asociarse con la sencillez”.

El encanto de este reloj también reside en su uniformidad cromática: una hermosa silueta negra, sutilmente tallada en los tonos gris pizarra de la caja, la esfera y la correa de acero pulido con chorro de arena DLC (Diamond-Like Carbon).

Gracias al tratamiento galvánico y los acabados lacados, la firma de Kiton Ateliers es evidente a primera vista en la esfera de latón gracias al motivo de pata de gallo del sastre napolitano, que ha sido un firme favorito desde que compró en una subasta el guardarropa del rey Eduardo VIII de Inglaterra, quien fue aclamado, si no por su efímero reinado, al menos por su elegancia de reconocido dandi.

Sobre este fondo oscuro, los números arábigos dorados a juego con los índices horarios y las agujas Dauphine de tipo fusée hacen que las horas y los minutos sean perfectamente legibles. Las indicaciones de un cuarto de hora y el logotipo de Kiton a las 6 en punto añaden un sutil toque rojo que se recoge en el pespunte de la correa. Testimonio del mismo enfoque artesanal, este último está hecho a mano, sin ningún tratamiento químico y se presenta en una suave mezcla de cachemira mongol, lana y franela con un ligero toque de elastano, lo que garantiza una mayor comodidad para el usuario. Esta opulenta pulsera está forrada con piel de aligátor roja al igual que una segunda correa de piel de aligátor negra que también se vende con el modelo.

Exactitud

Debido a que todos los relojes producidos en los talleres de relojería de Chopard Manufacture se combinan ampliamente con la perfección mecánica, el L.U.C XP Il Sarto Kiton incorpora un movimiento interno, el calibre L.U.C 96.53-L. Ultradelgado con solo 3,3 mm de grosor, es una evolución del primer movimiento L.U.C 96.01-L de Chopard Manufacture, sinónimo de excelencia relojera y aplicado en una multitud de nuevas interpretaciones desde que se presentó por primera vez en 1996.

Como su ilustre antepasado, y gracias a la tecnología Chopard Twin, el movimiento mecánico L.U.C 96.53-L con carga automática está equipado con dos cilindros que garantizan una reserva de marcha de 58 horas. Está alimentado por un micro-rotor de tungsteno, una aleación de alta densidad que facilita un bobinado óptimo. Con puentes de movimiento finamente decorados con “Côtes de Genève”, el reloj L.U.C XP Il Sarto Kiton es igualmente hermoso por dentro y por fuera, razón por la cual su precioso calibre es visible a través de un fondo transparente.

L.U.C: una colección para caballeros

El L.U.C. La colección encarna la combinación perfecta de virilidad y sensibilidad, humildad y carisma que definen al caballero de hoy en día. Representa una alianza ideal entre la estética y la mecánica, celebrada por aquellos que hacen de su existencia una búsqueda de artesanía fina y consideran la belleza interior y exterior como un arte de vivir. Es para ellos que Chopard, una Maison familiar independiente que se basa en la experiencia ancestral de sus maestros relojeros, realiza todas las etapas de la producción en sus talleres de Ginebra y Fleurier: desde el diseño del movimiento hasta el control de calidad, pasando por el diseño del producto, el estampado de cajas y el mecanizado, el fabricación de componentes de movimiento, así como su decoración a mano, tratamiento de superficies, pulido, montaje y ajuste.

Franck Muller - The Cintrée Curvex Remember

The Remember collection is available for ladies and men. Housed in a Cintrée Curvex case, designed with the sun-stamped guilloché lacquered dial with hologram numbers and applied Arabic numbers.

Franck Muller – The Cintrée Curvex Remember

Franck Muller - The Cintrée Curvex Remember

Franck Muller – The Cintrée Curvex Remember

Once again, Franck Muller takes an uncommon approach to the very notion of time off the beaten track. An invitation to remember, to cultivate the fabulous and precious power of remembrance.
The Master of Complications states with his new collection Remember that no law of physics assures us that time only moves forward in a unidirectional way. A real facelift, this timepiece with its fabulous rejuvenating properties takes us into a world where time flows backwards.

Franck Muller – The Cintrée Curvex Remember

The collection Remember thus offers a new reading, presenting the hour figures in the opposite clockwise direction. Historically, the hands have always moved in chronological order from 1 to 12, rotating from left to right at the top of the dial and from right to left at the bottom, following the direction of movement of the shadow projected on the horizontal sundial in the northern hemisphere.

Thanks to a self-winding mechanism, the hour, minute and second hands will follow an unconventional rotation, making a circle in a “counter-clockwise” direction. A poetic complication
that invites us to take our time, as if we could extend our most beautiful moments to infinity.

Amazing, disconcerting and elegant, the collection Remember is available in 18k rose or white gold or stainless steel. Its dial, entirely set with diamonds or stamped guilloche with sun pattern,
finished with 20 layers of lacquer and the emblematic hologram numerals of the House, will seduce the wrists of women and men.

A timepiece that perpetuates the Franck Muller tradition while establishing a new philosophy that invites each aficionado of Haute Horlogerie to proclaim their independence from the established
order of time.

DIVAS’ DREAM WATCH

The iconic fan-shaped motif of the collection, inspired by the mosaics of the Roman Baths of Caracalla, embraces the natural beauty of the iridescent feather, while a mechanical self-winding movement powers the watch, honouring women’s appreciation of both aesthetics and uncompromising quality.

Le Brassus, September 2020 – Inspiring creativity meets technical mastery in the five new Code 11.59 by Audemars Piguet Chronographs and five new Selfwinding date, hour, minute and second models. Their sunburst lacquered dials in hues of burgundy, blue, purple and grey enhance the timepiece’s myriad of details through an ever-changing play of light. Refined and highly contemporary, these novelties will bring a refreshing touch of colour to the slenderest and sturdiest wrists.

COLOURFUL TWISTS FOR CODE 11.59 BY AUDEMARS PIGUET


INTENSE COLOURS
The lacquered dials of the latest Code 11.59 by Audemars Piguet Selfwinding models are enlivened with rich smoked colours and a state-of-the-art sunburst pattern conveying light and movement. The lacquer’s smooth finishing further radiates refined nuances depending on the angle from which the watch is seen.


The red shades of the burgundy model are elegantly contrasted with an 18-carat white gold case and white gold hour-markers and hands. Conversely, the deep colours of the purple and blue models are illuminated by 18-carat pink gold. Each model comes with a dedicated alligator strap matching the colour of the dial for added character.


TWO-TONE ELEGANCE
Timeless, refined and versatile, the Manufacture’s two-tone models are embellished with grey sunburst lacquered dials in light or dark shades. The 18-carat pink gold octagonal middle case subtly enriches the white gold case and lugs, while highlighting the watch’s multifaceted architecture.

While the understated nuances of the light grey sunburst lacquered dial bring forward light, the smoked grey sunburst lacquered dial gives depth to the watch. The 18-carat pink gold hour-markers and hands add a glimmer of colour.

SAVOIR-FAIRE WITH FLAIR
The seamless alternation of satin-brushing and polished chamfers, beautifying the gold case of the new Selfwinding Chronographs and Selfwinding date, hour, minute and second models, imparts the ancestral savoir-faire the Manufacture continues to uphold and push further, generation after generation. This graceful combination of hand-finished matte and mirror surfaces, which has become Audemars Piguet’s trademark, accentuates the case’s complex geometry, while adding a pleasing play of light.

MICRO-MECHANICS SUITED TO A CONTEMPORARY LIFESTYLE
With their selfwinding mechanism, 70 hours of power reserve and water resistance to 30m, the Selfwinding Chronographs and Selfwinding date, hour, minute and second models are all suited to an active lifestyle.


In addition, the Selfwinding Chronograph models will please the sportier and more adventurous. These models are powered by calibre 4401, an integrated chronograph with column wheel and flyback function that enables to restart the chronograph without stopping and resetting it first. Visible through the watch’s sapphire caseback, the chronograph mechanism will appeal to admirers of beautiful micro-mechanics with its pioneering design revealing functions and components usually hidden from view.

REFINED AND ERGONOMIC DESIGN
Conceived for both men and women, the Code 11.59 by Audemars Piguet is endowed with an ergonomic curvature perfectly suited to all wrists despite the watch’s 41 mm in diameter. The case’s arched profile also embodies the watch’s contemporary design, which is further amplified by the complex double curved sapphire crystal magnifying the meticulous details adorning the dial.

“Born in Le Brassus, raised around the world.”

Cutting-edge style and innovation have always been essential parts of the James Bond story. In keeping with that legacy, OMEGA has now delivered a brand new Seamaster Diver 300M James Bond Numbered Edition, offering plenty of high-tech details for 007 fans to enjoy.

OMEGA Goes Platinum-Gold For New James Bond Watch

OMEGA has been equipping James Bond with its Seamaster timepieces since GoldenEye in 1995. This special new release is a proud celebration of that partnership, and provides a new addition to the 007 collection.

For an exceptional look, the 42 mm case is crafted in platinum-gold, with a platinum-gold plate on its side, engraved with each Numbered Edition number. The same beautiful material is also used for the polished-brushed buckle of the watch’s black leather strap.

More unique details can be uncovered throughout the design, including a black ceramic bezel ring with a platinum diving scale in positive relief, as well as a black enamel dial, which has been given a spiralling gun barrel design in 18K white gold.

As part of the OMEGA James Bond collection that was launched last year, this watch also includes a hidden number 50 within the Super-LumiNova of the 10 o’clock index – a reference to the 50th anniversary of the James Bond film On Her Majesty’s Secret Service. Elsewhere on the dial, you can find a 007 logo at 7 o’clock on the white enamel minute track, as well as 18K white gold features, including the hands, indexes and Bond family coat-of-arms at 12 o’clock.

Turning the watch over reveals a second Bond family coat-of-arms, which has been laser-engraved and filled with platinum on the sapphire crystal caseback. Its captivating final effect is completed with hand-engraved finishing in the finest detail. Through the glass, you can spy the OMEGA Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre 8807 – certified at the highest standards of precision, chronometric performance and magnetic resistance.

Finally, for fans who are able to obtain this Seamaster Diver 300M James Bond Numbered Edition, it comes presented in its own Globe-Trotter™ suitcase, bound by NATO-inspired straps. Inside, an additional black rubber strap is included.

Girard-Perregaux – Luxury Watch – Bridges Quasar Azure

BRIDGES QUASAR AZURE REF : 99295-43-002-UA2A

The ability to reveal the art in precision engineering is among Girard-Perregaux’s greatest achievements. The Quasar Light honours this legacy by engineering transparency to the extreme. Named after the most brilliant of astronomical entities, it is an epic masterpiece with gleaming aerial views of the Manufacture’s most iconic movement encased in Swiss-made Sapphire, exclusively available in just 8 pieces.

SEDUCED BY THE LIGHT

The Quasar Azure is a brilliantly bold expression of the company’s technical mastery, contemporary design and rich heritage. Sapphire is extremely difficult to craft because of its hardness. The case is formed, coloured, milled and polished by Girard-Perregaux artisans through a protracted process, taking over 200 hours. Set within the azure blue case, the tourbillon seemingly floats. The wearer is also indulged with aerial views of the Neo Bridges, a Girard-Perregaux signature inspired by architectural structures.

THE CALIBRE GP09400-1035

The GP09400 is developed and manufactured in-house. Thanks to its ingenious construction, the barrel was resized in order to house a longer barrel spring and to offer a longer power reserve, min. 60 hours instead of 48 hours for the traditional model.

A new feminine look for Audemars Piguets royal oak concept flying tourbillon

Le Brassus, julio de 2020: el fabricante suizo de alta relojería Audemars Piguet se complace en presentar una nueva versión de su Royal Oak Concept Flying Tourbillon para mujeres, que persigue la combinación de estética femenina refinada y complicada micromecánica.

Royal Oak Concept Frosted Gold Flying Tourbillon

A new feminine look for Audemars Piguets royal oak concept flying tourbillon

A new feminine look for Audemars Piguets royal oak concept flying tourbillon

Disponible en oro rosa o blanco de 18 quilates, el nuevo Royal Oak Concept Flying Tourbillon combina el brillante acabado Frosted Gold de la caja con una esfera contemporánea compuesta de múltiples capas. Por primera vez, la caja del Royal Oak Concept está adornada con Frosted Gold, una antigua técnica de joyería florentina revisada por la diseñadora de joyas Carolina Bucci y adaptada para adornar los relojes de la Manufactura. Se crean pequeñas hendiduras en la superficie dorada con una herramienta con punta de diamante, que proporciona un efecto de brillo similar al de las piedras preciosas, como el polvo de diamante. Superpuesto a los biseles pulidos del bisel, este acabado resalta los códigos de diseño del reloj, al tiempo que capta la atención desde la distancia.


El estuche brillante enmarca muy bien la esfera de varias capas compuesta por cuatro círculos yuxtapuestos de tamaño creciente y tonos graduados de azul que emanan de la jaula de tourbillon voladora a las 6 en punto. Los matices graduados y el motivo del resplandor solar acentúan aún más la profundidad y el refinamiento de la esfera. La jaula de tourbillon voladora también presenta un diseño moderno con círculos dorados calados rematados con un elegante toque de diamantes de talla brillante. No se han incluido marcadores de hora en el dial para mejorar la pureza de este diseño contemporáneo.


Combinando tradición y modernidad, estos relojes funcionan con calibre de fabricación manual 2964. El tourbillon volador, una complicación de alta gama que compensa el efecto de la gravedad en un reloj, se considera hoy en día como una de las mayores expresiones del arte relojero. Solo unos pocos relojeros expertos conservan las habilidades necesarias para su realización. El motivo circular del movimiento, visible a través del fondo de la caja de zafiro, recuerda el patrón de la esfera. La alternancia de chorro de arena y cepillado satinado también hace eco de los acabados de la caja de oro esmerilado y la esfera de rayos de sol.


Los dos modelos altamente contemporáneos están adornados con una correa de cocodrilo azul de “gran escala cuadrada” para un contraste elegante. También está disponible una correa adicional de goma con textura azul con motivo de constelación, que recuerda la caja de Frosted Gold. Ambas correas se complementan con un cierre desplegable adornado con Frosted Gold para una apariencia refinada hasta el más mínimo detalle.

“Born in Le Brassus, raised around the world.”
