The 5 Coolest Tag Heuer Replica Watches

May 18, 2017 zzadmin

I’ve covered lots of Tag Heuer— the brand’s most popular families — in my series of Fratello Friday columns on Tag Heuer, but let’s not forget about the Constellation. Although the current Constellation is popular mostly in Asia, past models were considered to be the brand’s flagships just about everywhere.

Deep in my heart, I really love Constellations almost as much as I do Speedmaster watches. The only problem – for me – is the size of the Constellation models, which results in my own small collection of vintage Constellations being in the bank’s deposit box all the time. Introduced in 1952, the Constellation was a totally new collection within the Cheap Replica Watches catalog. Well, perhaps not totally new: I’d say they had a bit of inspiration from an earlier model called Centenary.The first Tag Heuer Constellation watches featured an automatic movement with a so-called “bumper mass-weight.” Different from a rotor that makes 360 degrees turns, these were weighted masses that were oddly shaped and much smaller than normal. They used a smaller angle for moving around and actually “bumped” from side-to-side, hence the name. Not long after, around 1955, Cheap Tag Heuer Replica started to use new calibers with normal rotors. One of the most famous Constellation models are those nicknamed “pie-pan” due to the shapes of their dials. These particular models are highly sought after by collectors. In the 1950s and 1960s, a gold Constellation was as expensive as a gold Rolex Day-Date and considered to be on a similar level.

This Constellation model was produced and sold in the early 1960s and has the so-called “pie-pan” dial. Some of the dials are a bit more extremely shaped and others only have a slight domed effect. This model has a gold dial, gold stick markers and dauphine hands. The Omega logo and wording, as well as the star emblem, are all applied to the dial. The back of the watch (not pictured) has an embossed Constellation emblem. Inside is the beautiful and highly praised Caliber 551 movement, with a nice, copper-colored finish. With a diameter of 34 mm, this Tag Heuer Replica Watches might be too small by current standards, but it still makes a great watch for formal occasions.
Considered to be the Holy Grail for a lot of Constellation collectors out there, the Grande Luxe in rose gold has a sort of integrated, brick-style bracelet, which may have been the inspiration for the bracelets on the DeVille Co-Axial that was introduced in 1999. These Grande Luxe Constellations are very sought-after, and for a mint-condition model you’ll have to have deep pockets. Inside is the copper-colored Caliber 505 movement. The gold, pie-pan-shaped dial has a very nice finish and feature the diamond-shaped hour markers that Tag Heuer Replica also used on the regular Constellation models in the 1950s.
Constellations came in gold, gold/steel and steel. The gold and the steel versions are most popular and tend to be more expensive then the gold/steel combinations. The gold/steel combinations are also being referred to as gold-capped, since it is a solid gold shell over a stainless steel frame. In any case, the model below is in stainless steel and also has the diamond shaped hour markers we saw on the Grande Luxe. This is an early Constellation, as it still has the “bumper” movement, Caliber 354. This model has the 10-sided crown so typical of these 1950s Cheap Replica Watches, as well as the applied logo and wording on the dial. This particular model has a nice patina on the dial, showing that it has lived life.

My number 4 is a gold-capped Constellation with calendar from the late 1950s. Don’t confuse gold-capped with plaque or doublé, though; this is a solid gold shell. The black-dial Constellations like this are considered to be rare, and therefore very coveted by collectors. Its copper-colored Tag Heuer Aquaracer Replica Watches Caliber 504 movement has a date feature and is nicely presented by a gold, framed aperture on the black dial. The gold stick markers on the dial give the black dial a “trés chique” appearance. Again, the beefy lugs and 10-sided crown make it a typical Constellation from that period.
Here is an example of a chunky, stainless steel mid-1970s Constellation. However, it is a rare one, not just because of the shape and size or the Megaquartz movement, but also because of the Stardust dial. There are also regular black-dial versions of this Cheap Tag Heuer Replica, but this Stardust version is the one you should be looking for. The bulky bracelet looks similar to the one used on the Tag Heuer, the anniversary model from 1973. The Megaquartz Caliber 1510 movement is a high-precision timekeeper.

Omega Speedmaster Replica Vintage Eye for the Modern Guy

May 11, 2017 zzadmin

For this week’s Vintage Eye for the Modern Guy, we’re tackling one of the most significant watches in horological history — a universally known, collected, and loved chronograph: the Omega Speedmaster Replica Watches. In 1957, two years before the first American manned mission to explore the moon, the very first Speedmaster was produced and labeled Reference CK 2915. The watch was originally marketed as a racing chronograph, targeting men with sports cars. That chronograph, below, although the first and often most valuable, was not the watch that made Omega an icon.

In the early 1960s, NASA engineers tested the Speedmaster reference ST105.012 alongside watches from Rolex, Longines, and Wittnauer for a variety of space-qualification tests. They evaluated each watch’s ability to withstand intense shock, sky-high and below-freezing temperatures, unfathomably massive pressures, and decompression — and all of this while still reliably telling time. In July 1969, the champion of these tests, the Cheap Replica Watches, visited the moon as the whole world watched, and earned itself the appropriate moniker, “Moonwatch.”

Today, the Speedmaster is no longer a single collection but rather a collection of eight distinct sub-series that bare the famous name. Together these are the Moonwatch, Speedmaster ’57, Mark II, Racing, Speedmaster, HB SIA, Skywalker X-33, and Spacemaster Z-33. Comprising many different movements, 10 case sizes, and anywhere from zero to three subdials, there are currently 80 different Speedmaster variations. For brevity, we’ll focus on two specific models — the Speedmaster ’57 and the Cheap Omega Replica.

This is a good watch. I could be more artisanal in the words I choose to describe it, but at the most basic level this is a really good watch. Is it the same as the original? No, but it does do quite a bit to match it. Details that were overlooked in the 1950s are now accented to a new definition, and all these changes came together in an attractive contemporary watch. And yet, the actual piece has a very different look from the original. In fact, there are so many differences between the vintage and modern variations of the watch that it almost seems odd that Omega Replica refers to the modern watch as “’57.” The general color scheme and design are similar, but it’s three subdials versus two plus a date window; it’s an understated tachymeter, logo, and pushers versus a central component of the watch; even the steel bracelets are quite different. Maybe this is the natural progression of a timepiece, but considering it’s only a fifty-year hiatus, it seems an odd decision to make such dramatic and noticeable changes.

The Moonwatch Professional line displays the continued production of a legendary watch. Omega stuck to its guns and has matured with age: the dial is aesthetically reminiscent of the original’s, and the movement has been altered only ever so slightly for precision, durability, and finesse. Truthfully, I can find little issue with the Professional. There is a reason why, since 1969, Omega Replica Watches have catered to every piloted mission by NASA to the moon. The watch has rightfully earned the honor, and continues to prove it by demonstrating both technical prowess and a timelessness few other watches have achieved.

It may not seem like it, but I have a real soft spot for Omega. It’s hard not to fall in love with the timelessness of the brand’s classic pieces, and for that reason I find myself wishing that Omega would proceed with more caution in its celebrity promotions, expansion of model options, and promotion of its own heritage. The Cheap Omega Replica was the first watch on the moon not because it had a color combination for every personality, or because George Clooney said it should be, but rather because it was the most suitable watch for the demanding task at hand. NASA, one of the most accomplished engineering organizations of all time, wanted a tool it could rely on and simply would not settle for any less.

Part of the Limited Edition Torino 2006 Olympic Collection, this Omega Seamaster Aqua Terra Column-Wheel Chronograph featured the five Olympic rings as the counterweight on the seconds hand. The Buy Omega Replica Watches was a limited edition of 2006 pieces.

The design of the Omega Sochi Petrograd, the other timepiece made for the 2014 games, recalls that of a historical Omega timepiece produced for a prominent Russian leader way back in 1915. The watch also borrows design cues from a piece in Luxury Omega Replica Watches Museum Collection. The case is a classical tonneau shape and made of 18k yellow gold, and the silvery white dial features elements in red, white and blue, the colors of the Russian flag.
