Explore the evolution of the Raymond Weil Freedom Knight Series. As an important part of the Swiss luxury watch maker’s core collection, the Liberty Knight Collection is once again surprising in a modern style in 2019. These two new 42mm watches are carefully crafted at the Geneva Watch Factory and feature a dazzling half-moon opening date window – at the heart of the design of this new masterpiece.

The hands are equipped with Super-Luminova® white luminous coating, which completes the modern urban style and personality of the Liberty Knight series.

Why The More Watches I Buy, The More I Pay Attention To Their Maintenance And Repair?

3. January 2021

It is not too late to get to the topic. Like many of us who bought a car in the first place, they are eager to buy a car, look at the brand, look at the configuration, look at the configuration, talk about discounts, and finally order the car to pick it up. Because when we first bought a car, we lacked experience and were anxious to drive on a new car, so we did n’t pay much attention to the follow-up maintenance of the car at the beginning. That little money? ‘ As the freshness of the new car slowly recedes, we will really find some problems in the subsequent use of our car. May be high fuel consumption, expensive maintenance, expensive maintenance, large displacement, the annual vehicle and vessel use tax is very high, even if the car is left open, you have to pay a lot of money a year. These problems will only be experienced in long-term use, and when the money is paid, it will be upsetting. Watches and cars are actually the same, except that the cycle of these problems encountered by the watch will be much slower than the car, but when you have been in contact with the watch for longer and longer, and the number of watches is slowly increasing, similar problems with cars Will appear slowly. In the past, some people wrote articles about the maintenance of watches, but most of them were empty (because their own watches may not have any problems). Now, I want to talk about why I have limited knowledge and experience. Attention will be paid to the maintenance and repair of the watch.

Rolex Explorer 214270. The old model is on the top and the new model is on the bottom. It looks the same. In fact, the two models differ in the numbers of 3, 6, and 9 and the length and thickness of the hour and minute hands.
First of all, what I want to share with you is, how do I know that my watch should be maintained?
   I will talk about my own previous experience. I have a few Rolexes, of which a relatively large number are usually a 214270 probe. Because Tanyi is a smaller size and a thinner one in sports, this watch is more ‘friendly’ to the cuffs of clothes and is less likely to jam the cuffs. We usually just watch a rough time with a watch, not a few seconds. But one day I found that the watch was slower (because it hasn’t been adjusted for a long time), so this time I turned the watch to the cell phone to the minute and second. Then after one day and one night, after waking up the next day, looking at the time, I found that the watch seemed to have slowed down from ‘no difference between minutes and seconds’ (seconds could not be targeted). Rolex is a watch certified by the Observatory, with a standard of + 6 / -4 seconds per day. As a result, I found that the watch had gone beyond the + 6 / -4 standard after one night, and it felt like it was more than 10 seconds slower. I know many friends will also say that the error of their own watch exceeds the observatory standard, which may be normal. After all, some observatories are measured under ideal conditions, and the situation in life is complicated. I was also thinking, maybe it was just an accidental problem. In order to verify it, I tested this watch with a machine and found that the watch head is upward, the watch swings only 220 degrees, the watch is vertical, and the swing is only 200 degrees. To, the error is 8 seconds slower. The swing is too low, and this watch really needs to be sent for maintenance. I then went to Rolex Customer Service (Century Fortune Center) in Beijing. After the watch is tested in the service, the minimum swing is only 160 degrees. In fact, there is nothing wrong with this watch, it is time to maintain it, and the oil in some places is dry. Immediately I left this one in the labor service. Although there is no meter measuring machine in our home, from my experience, you can easily see that the watch has slowed down significantly in a short time, and the observatory watch greatly exceeds the observatory standard. You can basically take it to the customer service center .

Rolex Paul Card

The next question is, how long does the watch need maintenance after wearing it?
   I think this question is very interesting, because many people on the Internet who do n’t wear watches can move out of some standards, such as 2-3 years, such as 5 years. Anyway, there is no error, but there is no factual basis. Below I still use my own watch as an example. The probe of my 214270 is the probe of 3, 6, and 9 metal characters, not the 3, 6, and 9 luminous characters that were newly launched last year. Please pay attention to the distinction because the old and new models have not changed. The metal word 214270 should be launched in 2010. I bought this watch a few years ago. I wore it for a few years myself. Why is the oil in some places dry? Because when you get a watch, maybe it was produced in the first two years. If you wear it for a few more years, the watch will have some years. So you can see that after wearing the watch normally for 5 years, the various states have dropped (the lubricant will dry out). Although the watch is still going, the error starts to increase, and it is not impossible to continue wearing it. But the movement is already in poor condition, so any watch cannot afford time and running wear.

The maintenance cost of the previous Daytona 4030 movement is actually higher than the current Daytona 4130 movement. The picture shows the 4030 chronograph movement used by the previous generation Daytona.
How much does it cost?
   When we first entered the world of luxury watches, we might have only one watch at that time. Maintenance was probably an issue we never thought of at the time. Later, with the increasing addiction of watches, watches changed from 1 to 2, and then to 3, 4 and even 5 upwards. On the other hand, the watch at hand may be a brand new complete watch in warranty, or a single watch without a warranty card, or even an old watch or antique watch. At this stage, problems with the repair and maintenance of the watch gradually emerge. Some players once said that ‘maintenance is not very important, but very important.’ When I first heard this sentence, I couldn’t empathize at that time. Now, I also pay more and more attention to the repair and maintenance of watches. It is very important and even affects how you choose the table. Let’s count it. Rolex, Omega watches, including watches of the same brand, movement maintenance oil, according to the complexity of the movement (from the three hands without a calendar to the chronograph movement), the price is more than 2000 yuan To more than 5,000 yuan once (for the tourbillon and the like I don’t know). In addition to washing oil, the most frequently changed part is the seal on the crown. Because the screw-in lock bar will wear out for several years, the customer service center generally recommends changing it. The price is 380 (if the waterproof test passed the test, I will not change it). You can add this price yourself. For a watch, there is no problem with the last 5 years warranty, but when your watch is more and more, the number of times you send the watch to warranty will be more and more, and the chance of problems will increase (watches It will inevitably be bad. I still have a chronograph of a certain brand that has not been repaired). We will slowly discover that if you have multiple watches in your hands and take turns to maintain them once, you can buy another one for the price (I have maintained and repaired several watches in the past period, and some are not intended to be maintained. ).

So when I bought the watch, I had a little experience.

   If the budget allows, you can buy a brand new full set of watches under warranty, try to buy, this is the best choice. Because the watch is new, you can wear it for a long time and you don’t need to take care of it for a long time. Even if the price is higher, as long as it is within the acceptable range, try to buy it. If the budget is insufficient and you need to see a watch or single watch without warranty, then try to choose a new watch with a recent production year. For example, Rolex is optimistic about the prefix. For watches with an earlier production year, because the production time is longer, the state of the movement will be affected. Buy it back and wear it for a while, you may have to take it for maintenance. Some old models of watches, when bought back and said they are not allowed to go bad. But the good news is that as long as these watches are taken for maintenance, they can be brand new as they are. (Single watches seem cheap when buying them, but if they do n’t take long to buy, they are actually just saving money. It is used for maintenance, so when buying a watch, especially a watch with an early production year, try to push the price down). Finally, the question of old and antique watches. For ordinary people, I don’t recommend buying such a watch. The reason why some people buy old watches and antique watches is that (except collectors) big brand watches, the price will also be very low, wearing face is enough. But when these watches are bought back, once problems occur, they may not be repairable. Because many watches are so old, there are no parts now. Some watches are repaired by the brand’s official customer service, and basically have to return to Switzerland. The maintenance cycle is long and expensive.

   Some friends may say that we have familiar watch shops and watch repairers who can solve the problems of watch maintenance and repair by themselves. Yes, yes, this is indeed a method. I had previously repaired a Rolex and it was also a watch I wore. Because I watched it once, it was at 2 o’clock (you should pay attention to this position, it is easy to get it), the case has scratches, and the glass has a small pit. I don’t know if it was the cause of this sting, but after wearing it for a while, I found that the needles were loose. Then I went to the familiar watchmaker where I reinstalled the needle. After I installed it, I thought about it, and sent the watch to the work clothes for maintenance. Because I think that after a Rolex maintenance, the movement will have an additional 2 years warranty, and the watch is also recorded in Rolex’s computer. If there is any problem, there is an additional guarantee, which is not available to the public. Considering the extra protection, I later sent the watches to the labor service whenever Rolex needed maintenance.
   The experience on the watch is paid by buying the watch and paying the ‘tuition fee’. Compared with many people, the ‘tuition fee’ I paid is insignificant, but I hope this experience can be useful to friends who have just arrived in the world of watch Benefit.

Breakthrough ‘sound Impairment’ Bell & Ross Releases Br-x1 Watch

30. December 2020
| No Comments

Bell & Ross has released a new high-tech BR-X1 watch in Paris this week. The price of the new watch has increased significantly, and it is aimed at completely different target customers, thereby leading the brand’s development to one. A new direction.

   In a luxurious showroom at the headquarters in Paris, Carlos Rosillo, CEO of Bell & Ross, showed the media a clip from the 1983 movie ‘The Right Stuff.’ The film adapted from Tom Wolfe’s novel of the same name in 1979 begins with Chuck Yeager’s breakthrough sound speed driving. It is Bell X-1 that helped him achieve this feat. The reason why the new ‘Supersonic’ chronograph gives the same name-Bell & Ross hopes to break through the ‘sound barrier’ of its own watchmaking.

   From a business perspective, the new limited edition BR-X1 chronograph costs 15,000 euros, breaking the key psychologically expected price of 10,000 euros. The ‘sound boom’ caused by the release of this chronograph will definitely shake the entire watch industry, which means that Bell & Ross will abandon its familiar field of price positioning of thousands of yuan, and Audemars Piguet, Hublot and even Richard M. Le began a positive competition.

   ‘This watch we are launching will face fierce competition from Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore and Hublot Big Bang Skeleton,’ Mr Rosillo said frankly, ‘but I believe that customers interested in this type of watch will choose Bell & Ross, because it is specifically designed for this type of customer, they already have this type of watch, but still want new models of different brands. This watch will even bring us a new type of customer group.’

   But how to break through the ‘sound barrier’ of watchmaking? Mr. Rosillo explained that “both precious metals and gemstones can be used, and hope can be placed on the application of high-end technology.” Apparently, Bell & Ross chose the latter. The light grade 5 titanium alloy with rubber and high-tech ceramics makes the case lighter but more robust. What’s more, Bell & Ross specially equipped it with a movement co-developed with Dubois Dépraz, with an ‘X’ style black DLC bridge structure.

   The technical design of the case has obvious ergonomic considerations. For example, the red rubber on the case allows the wearer to hold the watch more comfortably for chronograph operation. Compared to other push-button timers commonly found on other chronographs, the rotation type operation is also easier and more comfortable. Although the diameter of the watch reaches 45 mm, the application of titanium alloy makes it not heavier to wear between the wrists.

   The release of this BR-X1 watch will start a new era of brand development. In the future, Bell & Ross will have more high-priced technical limited edition watches. 750 points of sale around the world compete for 250 limited-edition watches, Bell & Ross also took the opportunity to practice the marketing strategy of the franchise.

   The new BR X1 limited watch continues the brand’s signature square case design. This structure provides possibilities for countless changes in the future. For example, a simple change in rubber color on the case will create a new watch. Mr. Rosillo said, ‘(This case design) is like Lego, it is a highly inclusive and modular architecture, and it is very flexible to operate.’

   Finally, Mr. Rosillo concluded that, from the present point of view, the future series will still continue the brand’s square case design. However, this may also be a limitation and obstacle to the brand’s ‘supersonic’ ambition.

Jacques Flying Tourbillon Ultra-thin Master Series Minute Watch

The annual Geneva International Watch Fair is about to begin. The reporting team in front of the Watch House has arrived in Geneva and will bring you the latest and fastest comprehensive watch fair report. Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Ultra Thin Minute Repeater Flying Tourbillon Minute Repeater, the eleventh masterpiece of the Hybrid Mechanica series and the first ultra-thin wrist of the Grand Complication Watches, confirm the brand’s vision for the future development of fine watchmaking.

   The Jaeger-LeCoultre team consists of a group of visionary and tireless developers. That’s why the Master Ultra Thin Jubilée commemorative watch was launched just one year ago, and the true pioneer in this superbly complex watch field came out-it is known for a series of technological achievements that will surely inspire The imagination of connoisseurs of fine watches. This is indeed the case! The Flying Tourbillon Ultra-Thin Master Minute Repeater is inspired by the research on the complication of two iconic timepieces, and has become the thinnest minute repeater in its category with a thickness of 7.9 mm.

   This watch has eight patented designs, six of which are brand new. The two keywords of ‘innovation and innovation’ and ‘excellent performance’ dominated the entire development process and successfully achieved the ultimate slimness without sacrificing its reliable performance, which is exactly the subtlety that made this new work a model for watches. This watch is equipped with an innovative tourbillon, a high-performance new balance spring, a peripheral automatic winding system, a retractable single button, and a new minute repeater with a ‘quiet time’ reduction system. The Jaeger-LeCoultre timepieces are constantly being introduced. This new masterpiece undoubtedly strengthens Jaeger-LeCoultre’s leadership in the field of timepieces, and reflects the brand’s characteristics of pursuing excellence and exceeding limits.

   Traditional tourbillons often obscure certain components, and the Jaeger-LeCoultre watch factory aims to give a clear view of the center of the watch. For this reason, Jaeger-LeCoultre watchmakers have developed a new tourbillon and patented it. The watch is equipped with a world’s first flying tourbillon with a flying balance wheel. This technological innovation allows the movement of the balance wheel and hairspring to be seen from multiple angles. The regularly oscillating balance wheel and the hairspring fixed on the balance wheel in a special layout are dazzling. With amazing creativity, watchmakers not only make the structure of the watch lively and interesting, but also make the watch thinner.
   Timepieces always occupy an important position in the horological kingdom. A timepiece is a challenge for watchmakers seeking pure tone, regular melody, and timeless precision and reliability. The extraordinary complexity of the minute repeater device makes it the supreme example of watchmaking success. In 1870, the Jaeger-LeCoultre watch factory in Rugu Valley decided to develop a timepiece movement, so it began to transform this ancient art, giving it unparalleled precision and reliability through the perfect combination of hand-made and mechanical processing. So far, the watch factory has designed and produced more than 200 movements equipped with the minute repeater, and the minute repeater has therefore become one of Jaeger-LeCoultre’s favorite themes. The watch factory explores this sophisticated and complex function and continues to introduce new ideas. This watch has a new design concept: rethinking and manufacturing the minute repeater movement, and achieving ultra-thin design.
   Minute repeater can perform hour, quarter clock and minute repeaters as required. If you don’t need a quarter clock, there will be a long ‘silent time interval’ between the hour and minute alarm. This kind of sound interval often appears during the time reporting. If there is no quarter report, the silence is particularly obvious. To solve this problem, Jaeger-LeCoultre has developed a system that reduces this ‘silent time span’. This system will eliminate the obvious pause between hour and minute time signal once it is detected that no clock is required. In this way, accurate treble and bass can be seamlessly connected in accordance with the established method, without affecting the rhythm.
The above is the latest cutting-edge information of SIHH 2014 brought to you by the special editor of Watch House. Next, we will provide more and more intuitive exhibition reports, so please pay attention.

As for the movement of the movement, the watch’s back cover is equipped with bearings, which can be wound by winding the mainspring, providing a seven-day power reserve. The two bezels on the surface and the rear case cover are an integral part of the movement. The innovative hand-wound movement can be clearly appreciated by seeing through the back case.
  The case can be made of 18K white gold or 18K rose gold. The diameter of this avant-garde ship is 45mm. You can enjoy the infinite charm of mechanical operation. It is equipped with a blue or brown crocodile leather strap with a folding buckle to show nobility. Elegant, the ‘Blue Cruiser’ tourbillon is suitable for any occasion.

Athens watches
   The spirit of sailing is to pursue the discovery of completely new things as the highest pursuit. As early as 168 years ago, Ulysse Nardin, the founder of the Athenian watch brand, already produced astronomical clocks in Neuchâtel surrounded by mountains in Switzerland. He devoted himself to the accurate design of marine timepieces, and is famous for his impeccable marine astronomical clock. 50 countries have set the Athens watch marine clock as the standard configuration of the navy to protect human navigation. Since then, Athens Watch has won more than 4,300 championship awards, of which 18 are the world’s most respected gold awards, while also obtaining the largest number of mechanical watch patents. Science, innovation and imagination have inspired the Athens watch, and talented ghosts have repeatedly created a precedent. They have led the global watchmaking industry with unprecedented design concepts and bold breakthroughs. Relying on the firm belief of independent development, Athens Watch uses the bold innovation and the pursuit of excellence in watch manufacturing to interpret the ultimate professional attitude and the purest philosophy of top watchmaking experts.

[Brief Comment] The cooperation between Longines and Wittnauer has a history of 120 years. With the support of Longines, Wittnauer provided the Navy with two watches during early aeronautical tests, and it quickly became famous. So that in the early 20th century, almost every pilot wore a Wittnauer watch. This is a pilot watch produced by Longines for Wittnauer, with a very rare sterling silver case. The design of this watch is the same as Longines’ ‘Lin Bai’, and it uses the Weems seconds setting function, which is a more classic one of the classic Longines.
