Watches Artistic Beauty

The Vacheron Constantin Overseas Series is the only watch series in the Vacheron Constantin product line that emphasizes sports characteristics and uses only stainless steel. It has always shown itself with a brilliant and technological sense. Today, a new perpetual calendar chronograph is added to these columns. This is the first time that Vacheron Constantin has launched a watch combining the two important functions of the perpetual calendar and chronograph in the Overseas watch series. It can be said that it is the most complicated watch in the vertical and horizontal series.
   The watch uses a 42mm diameter design and is water resistant to 150m. The iconic Maltese cross design bezel and button guards are made of titanium. The rest of the case is made of stainless steel, and a soft iron insulation plate is used to protect the movement from magnetic fields. The watch is also equipped with a screw-locked case featuring the vertical and horizontal series, and is cast with the famous Amerigo Vespucci brig pattern.
   This watch comes with two straps: a black rubber strap and a dark grey alligator leather strap. Equipped with a double safety folding clasp, the watch not only has double protection, but also is more comfortable to wear.
    The radiant dial features a dark gray design, 18K white gold hour markers and hands coated with white luminous material, and bright yellow chronograph hands, making the entire dial very visually striking.
   It is equipped with a 1136 QP automatic movement composed of 228 parts. The shock frequency is 21600vph and the power reserve is 40 hours. The chronograph second hand, minute hand and hour hand are respectively at the center, 3 o’clock and 9 o’clock of the dial. The perpetual calendar features the month, week, and calendar at 12 o’clock, 9 o’clock, and 3 o’clock. The small seconds and moon phases are at 6 o’clock on the dial.
    Overseas Perpetual Perpetual Calendar Chronograph is limited to 80 pieces. A special edition for Vacheron Constantin stores, available only at 27 Vacheron Constantin stores worldwide.

It is not too late to get to the topic. Today I bring the second article of the famous watch collector, Dr. Fengqing Qing’s book, ‘Watches in the Sea’, ‘Buy Watches in Hong Kong and Macao’. This article was written on July 3, 2000. Please note that the watch prices and quotes in this article are very different from today. Please do not confuse them with the current quotes.
‘Buy a watch in Hong Kong and Macau’
   At the beginning of 1999, I saw “Famous Watches and New Knowledge” edited by Mr. Yun Yonglin through a friend’s introduction. Fang Zhi had such a beautiful magazine in the Chinese circle. In June of the same year, I got in touch with Mr. Xun. From September 1st to 4th, I took the opportunity of Thai Star coin exchange at Golden Mile Holiday Hotel in Tsim Sha Tsui and visited Mr. Xun’s office.
   There was a typhoon passing near Hong Kong that day. It was raining heavily. I learned by phone that Mr. Qi might arrive at the company at about 2 noon. So I went to Weibang Commercial Center before 2 o’clock. Director, young, lively, smart, and understanding, I understand one of the reasons why ‘Famous New Watches’ can sell well. It’s a pity that Mr. Kwong couldn’t come because of something. Ms. Huang introduced me to several watch shops, and I can finally feast on my eyes in Hong Kong.
   Unlike Japan, pawn shops in Hong Kong do not sell outdated pawns, so expectations of buying famous watches at pawn shops fail, and the things in the pawn shops are genuine, and there are many things that have disappeared from the market for many years. At the same time, the scale of the second watch store is also very small, and you cannot see a second-hand store that sells tens of thousands of watches at the same time as Japan’s Shinjuku Best.
   On the other hand, the new watch shops in Hong Kong can be discounted, and the discount range is large, up to 50% cheaper. Unlike the new watch shops in Japan, not only can not be discounted, but even 5% consumption tax is not exempt. This may be one of the reasons for the difficulties in the second watch store. In Swiss Watch Co., Ltd., 481 Hennessy Road, I saw a large hollow gold royal oak. The clerk can decide the price is HK $ 120,000, which is almost 3/5 of the original price. Sincerely want to buy, find the manager to return It can be negotiated that the price of the new watch is really stunning.

Patek Philippe 3998

   In the second watch store in Hong Kong, the scenery is completely different. Most of them appear as antique shops. There is a second-hand shop called ‘GOOD OLD DAYS’ in Harbour City, Canton Road, Tsim Sha Tsui. There are several good watches. I bought a Patek Philippe from the 1970s at that store, and it was sold for HK $ 27,000. The owner was very enthusiastic and sent me to a nearby place called ‘Tianbao Antiques’ and bought another Only the ‘universe’ of the 1950s. Although the condition is not very good, the dial is very unique and sold for HK $ 10,000. The trip was very fruitful, but the scale variety of ‘Tim Bao’ was obviously inferior to that of ‘Thinking of the Year’.
   At the coin exchange meeting, there were also watches, which accounted for about 25% of all exhibits, and the transaction was also very enthusiastic. In the hands of an exhibitor called ‘Guhui Timepiece’, I saw a Rolex with a gold lock and double calendar. The asking price was only 65,000 Hong Kong dollars, and hesitated for a while, that is, they were bought, and still confused about this dial. On September 1st of the same year, I bought an ultra-thin Vacheron Constantin in the hands of an American with a hand-woven 18K gold strap for the back, the asking price was $ 2700, and it was sold for $ 2,000. Unfortunately, after returning to Tianjin, my friend found that the dial was For the refurbished, the American hired a Chinese translator and couldn’t figure out the meaning of the dial refurbishment or not, but I believe that the movement with a 5-cent coin thickness is no doubt.
   On September 2nd, I found a place called ‘Baibaolin Watches’ near the Holiday Inn Golden Mile. This shop is very strange. All the watches have a wild nature, like boasting that they are rich. This kind of watch can occasionally meet in Tokyo. One or two, a shop is all such watches, unimaginable. Owner Xu Yuai said that the Middle Eastern rich like this watch. Most of the shop’s patrons are rich people in the Middle East, and I finally know the true meaning of ‘existence has a reason’. Watch shops in Macao are concentrated near the Lisboa Hotel. Most of them are pawn shops. They have three characteristics: First, All Gold Rolex is 20% to 30% cheaper than Tokyo, and it indicates whether there is a back strap. Usually, such as ‘ ‘Guarantee 18K gold’, mostly for the back strap, the authentic is written ‘guaranteed original’, some cases and straps are non-original, the price is only 17,000 Hong Kong dollars, 90% of the new 18238 is the original color 60,000 Hong Kong dollars, Tokyo is 70,000 to 80,000 Hong Kong dollars. Second, there are more high-end watches, fewer mid-range watches, and lower-end watches, which is different from Tokyo. Third, Girard Perregaux and Zunda are more well-known than the United States and Japan.

Rolex 18238

   In the Changxing watch decoration market of Huarong Building on the Prince’s Road, I bought a 3998 Patek Philippe. I was looking at Audemars Piguet, and inadvertently asked, ‘Is there a Patek Philippe?’ The female boss casually said, ‘I just have one.’ I want to take a look at it. It is the automatic calendar 3998 Patek Philippe that was published in a book published in Shanghai 3 years ago. Shake it slightly and place it flat on the hand. Immediately feel a vibration of energy transmitted to the whole hand, superb movement. Tuo, PP’s unique tremor. Probably the female boss was sloppy and unintentionally called for a price of 29,000 Hong Kong dollars. I immediately offered a price of 24,000 Hong Kong dollars. After the two sides made concessions of 26,000 Hong Kong dollars, it was a great gain for me in Macau. The PP seen by the store is about 40,000 Hong Kong dollars (now PP has doubled).
   Compared with other watch fans, I actually do n’t understand watches. When I went to Mr. Jiao Dayu’s shop in Hong Kong, I did n’t understand the difference between the tourbillon and Caruso. I just felt that Mr. Jiao Dayu’s pursuit of craftsmanship exceeded that of the shop. The pursuit of business. There are not many watches in the store, and they are too far from imagination. The day after meeting with him, Mr. Dayu told me that Ming Pao published his deeds, nearly a page in length, describing his experience and achievements in researching watches. I went downstairs immediately, bought a newspaper, and read it late. In the past few days, there was a dispute between the president and assistants of the University of Hong Kong. This was the theme of TV newspapers, which made me feel weird. There was something noisy about a school.
   What the author and other watch fans may have in common is the pursuit of brand, shape, material and the beauty of the dial. I recently bought a piece of Vacheron Constantin. I didn’t want to change it for a week after wearing it. This may be the watch that Mr. Ji said is suitable for himself. I am a psychiatrist, I believe it will not be implied by Mr. Xun’s words, other watches do not have the charm that I can wear for a week without changing, even PP 3998 is the same. In fact, in addition to that magical shock, it also has a small amount of output, and the nobleness of it is hard to be considered invisible and unheard of.
   During the trip to Hong Kong and Macau, due to the care of Mr. Tong and Ms. Huang, they ‘entered the door’ and experienced the glimpse of it. It is indeed a treasure trove of opportunities.

Cartier as a veteran brand of SIHH, this time also brought a number of new products of its own debut, this time for everyone is a Cartier dual tourbillon watch, the next watch home Live updates on the latest press conference for everyone. (Pictures from foreign websites)

   Imagine a watch with a tourbillon device suspended in the air-Cartier has turned this dream into a reality with the new 9454 MC dual mysterious tourbillon movement and won the Geneva Quality Seal. A little closer inspection reveals the magic of this mechanism. The floating tourbillon, which rotates once every 60 seconds, seems to be completely suspended in the air, without any connection to other components. When the tourbillon frame starts its second rotation every 5 minutes a week, this magical visual experience is finally achieved. This dual mysterious floating tourbillon watch not only combines Cartier’s bold creativity and watchmaking expertise, but also embodies the essence of the brand’s mysterious timepiece creation for more than a century.

   Behind the simple and elegant appearance hides incredible complex machinery. The biggest highlight of this Rotonde de Cartier watch is the innovative mechanical structure called ‘double mystery’. The watchmaker at the Cartier Workshop must show endless originality and flexibility in order to maximize the materials and movement and create a series of dazzling dynamic miracles. When performing tricks, magicians need to divert the audience’s attention and convince them of the visual illusions and supernatural powers they create. In the Rotonde double mysterious tourbillon watch, the designer team draws inspiration from the creativity of Jean-Eugène Robert-Houdin, the father of modern magic, to create a suspended visual feast.

 
   Experts in the watchmaking industry know that the tourbillon device in the vertical position rotates at a predetermined frequency through its frame, and the average azimuth error (by passing through each point of the circle in a given time), thereby reducing the gravity to the balance wheel (Regulatory mechanism). This exquisite device is placed in the center of the Rotonde double mysterious tourbillon watch, which seems to get rid of the law of gravity, giving people the impression of being unsupported and suspended in the air. At the same time, the tourbillon frame completes one rotation per minute and complete rotation in its space every 5 minutes, completely released from the constraints of gravity.

  
   The watchmaker at Cartier’s workshop uses an anti-glare sapphire crystal wafer disc and excavates a hole the same size as the tourbillon, thereby perfectly creating the illusion of the tourbillon frame hanging. In order to realize this illusion, they made the disc supporting the frame in a rotating state, and then set the minute wheel driving the vibrator on a rotating shaft, which was used to limit the inherent ‘resistance torque’ of the mechanism supporting the tourbillon, and was successful. The power is transmitted to the tourbillon, and the entire device can complete a suspended rotation every 5 minutes. Therefore, while the tourbillon rotates every 5 minutes in a transparent open space, its frame performs 5 complete rotations. The secret to achieving this is to place a set of racks around the edge of the sapphire crystal wafer disc, connecting the disc to a large gear that runs once every 5 minutes.

   The 9454 MC dual mystery tourbillon movement is the result of Cartier’s long-term research and development. For example, determining the speed of each moving part requires countless calculations. To minimize energy consumption, the tourbillon frame completes a complete rotation in its specific space every 5 minutes, which is 25 times less energy than a revolution per minute. In order to improve the efficiency of this mobile device, the weight of each component of the movement is minimized, so as to better control the inertia of the rotating components including the disc and the titanium tourbillon frame. Although the weight of the ‘floating’ frame has been reduced to a minimum (0.28 g), in order to compensate for the weight of the speed governing mechanism and the frame, a part of the round frame for meshing the gear is made of gold and is installed opposite the tourbillon. Position to equalize weight on both sides, creating a dynamic balance effect.
                      I believe this watch must be expensive

Summary: From the bottom of my heart, Cartier is the most eye-catching brand at the Geneva Watch Fair. A number of ultra-avant-garde watches have attracted the attention of countless media, including this dual tourbillon The world announced Cartier’s unshakable watchmaking power, and as a watch enthusiast, how can there be too much power for such a challenging watch?

A little girl replied cheerfully: ‘My volunteer is to be a big star!’ The director of the teaching asked: ‘What kind of big star?’ The little girl smiled like a flower, ‘Nicole Kidd Man! ‘The little girl grew up and wanted to be a big star like Nicole. This is a scene from the 2008 release of Zhou Xingchi’s movie’ Yangtze River No. 7 ‘. Director Cao asked the students what their dreams were. Because of the superstar Nicole, countless people remember this classic bridge. In 2018, you may also hear that many watch brands have begun to cooperate with celebrities: Luhan, Eason Chan, Jay Chou, Jolin Tsai, Wu Yanzu … Borrowing the influence of celebrities to increase the attention of the brand and drive sales. It is a reliable and effective business tool that can stand the test of time. In terms of inviting popular stars to cooperate, the person who has the most say is probably Omega, which everyone knows today-the superstar Nicole, has long been the Omega celebrity ambassador. Nicole’s commercial for the Omega watch 011995, Omega officially signed model Cindy Crawford as its celebrity ambassador, and invited her to China to attend the event. The word ‘supermodel’ was not popular at that time. If it is in accordance with today’s standards, the number of fashion covers or the ability to attract gold, Cindy is undoubtedly the first in the supermodel list. In the era of just entering the fast track of reform and opening up, the world’s supermodels do propaganda, no doubt bringing greater than expected popularity to the Omega China market. Wearing the Omega Constellation series watch, accompanied by a sentence ‘Cindy Crawford’s Choice’, this classic advertising picture remains in the memory of many people. Cindy filmed an ad for the Omega Constellation series of watches. Cindy and Omega have been working together since the 1990s. They also participated in the design of the new Omega Constellation series of watches. Ten years after signing Cindy, Omega has found superstar Nicole. In the first decade of the early 21st century, Nicole was undoubtedly a Hollywood superstar all over the world. Whether it is a film achievement or a beautiful appearance, she has been in the media spotlight. I still remember that ‘Nicole’s Choice’ was the new Ladymatic watch of the Omega Saucer Series. There were huge advertisements everywhere in Shanghai’s commercial district. A college student was planted by Nicole at that time. When Nicole wore an Omega Ladymatic watch ad campaign, she reunited with her classmate many years after graduation. When I saw her, she wore a gold Ladymatic watch on her wrist. 02A month ago, the superstar Nicole, supermodel Cindy, came to China again together. Along with them, there are two omega celebrity ambassadors: Chinese actress Liu Shishi, and Brazilian supermodel nicknamed ‘AA’-Alessandra Ambrosio. The luxury star lineup gathered in Shanghai for the global launch of Omega’s new Constellation Collection Manhattan ladies watch. Omega’s four celebrity ambassadors were in Shanghai Liu Shishi, and they became brand celebrity ambassadors in 2017. Omega is clearly in order to go more stable in the Chinese market. AA is the first time to attend the event as an Omega celebrity ambassador. Everyone understands that signing AA is to better manage the Brazilian and South American markets that are rich in supermodels. Brazilian supermodel AA wears the new Constellation series Manhattan ladies watch, plus Cindy daughter and post-zero rookie model Kaia Gerber, you will find the omega female celebrity ambassador, has completed the ‘old middle youth’ all-round no dead end layout. When we look at the high frequency of Omega, especially the Constellation series watches, we should understand that this situation is not without reason, it is the result of Omega’s hard work for more than 20 years. At the Shanghai conference, Liu Shishi shared with us his views on ‘Chinese consumers especially like constellation watches’: ‘Chinese women are very restrained but very tough inside, which is very similar to constellation watches.’ Liu Shishi wears The new Constellation series Manhattan ladies watch is probably Liu Shishi’s personal experience when she was on the same stage with three other western women as the only Oriental celebrity ambassador. Different growth environments, age gaps … especially the differences between eastern and western cultures, Liu Shishi does have many differences from Cindy, Nicole and AA. However, the four ambassadors have one thing in common: that they have achieved outstanding results in their respective fields, and are confident, independent and powerful women representatives. The 03 Omega Constellation series was born in 1952, but at that time the constellation watch was really different from today, and the gap was a little big. Except for the Constellation on the dial and the pentagram logo, everything looks no different from a regular round watch. Early constellation series watches have one of the most punctual ‘inner hearts’. Constellation watches are made by Omega for high travel accuracy. The entire series is certified by the Observatory and the dial is printed with the word Chronometer. The back of the case is covered with 8 stars around the constellation emblem of the observatory, representing the eight championships Omega won in the observatory competition from 1933 to 1952, which means that the Omega watch is accurate and reliable. The pattern of the astronomical star logo on the back of the constellation watch has been used to this day, and has become one of the prominent signs in the series. Some people even think that the reason this series of watches are called ‘constellations’ is because of the constellation represented by the eight stars behind it. However, it is not appropriate to understand this way, although the constellation series is indeed inspired by the vast sky. In 1982, a constellation watch named ‘Manhattan’ was born, which laid the foundation for the appearance of today’s constellation series, which is also the source of the new constellation series Manhattan ladies watch released by Shanghai. The first generation of the Constellation Manhattan watch at the time Omega wanted an ultra-thin watch, but also had to take into account the waterproof function. The designer removed the thick bezel, and let the sapphire crystal and waterproof gasket be directly buckled on the case, clamped with four supporting claws and locked with screws. This tool-type claw design has since become the most iconic feature of the constellation watch. After several iterations, the four-claw has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. At the Shanghai conference, the fifth upgrade of the Constellation Manhattan watch was completed. There were 101 new watches, 25mm and 28mm were quartz watches, and 29mm models were mechanical watches. The new Constellation Manhattan Lady’s Sedna® 18K gold style continues the classic elements since 1982, while the details have been more modified in accordance with modern aesthetics: for example, the bezel ‘thin’, the Roman numerals on it are also much thinner, and All are presented in a vertical direction for easy reading; the claw design is also more ‘slender and thin’, and the case transition is similarly chamfered to make the bezel and the case more naturally and smoothly; for example, the bracelet, the sides of the edge Chamfering, polishing, mirror-polished joints, more refined overall; the new constellation series Manhattan ladies watch bezel, claws, bracelet and other details are refined in addition to appearance, the new constellation series Manhattan ladies watch in accuracy Shang also adheres to its original intention more than 50 years ago: the 29 mm mechanical watch uses the best coaxial Omega chronometer movement. The movement not only needs to be certified by the Swiss Official Astronomical Observatory (COSC), but the entire watch must also complete eight rigorous tests required by the Observatory, including resistance to a strong magnetic field of 15,000 Gauss. As Liu Shishi said, the ‘inside and outside’ Omega constellation models are very similar to the characteristics of Chinese women. 04 In Omega’s official propaganda, we see that Liu Shishi has been wearing a Constellation series watch. In 2017, it was the newly launched Zodiac Observatory small seconds watch; in 2018, it was just the new Constellation series Manhattan ladies watch just released. In 2017, Liu Shishi wore a constellation series Zhizhen Observatory small seconds watch to shoot a large movie. But in reality, Liu Shishi said that she would match different models according to the needs of different occasions. ‘I think wearing a beautifully designed and high-quality watch will make people hope to cherish every moment in life. On many occasions, I will wear a watch.’ Liu Shishi interpreted the meaning of wearing a watch. In daily life, especially when you want to show women’s self-confidence through some neutral wear, Liu Shishi said that she would choose the ‘007 watch’, which is the Haima 300 model, or the Supermaster watch. Although Liu Shishi has always been a ladylike figure, she can see that she is extremely confident and independent. Liu Shishi wears the new Constellation series Manhattan ladies watch.
