Chopard Alpine Eagle 41 Shikkoku Japan Limited Edition

The dial of this Japan-exclusive model features the darkest shade of black wings.high quality watches replica

Chopard launched a limited edition of 100 pieces of the Alpine Eagle watch, aiming to conquer this land of the rising sun. The darkest version of the brand's luxury sports watch to date, the dial is inspired by the jet-black hue known in Japan as shikkoku. This rich black comes from the millennia-old Japanese lacquer craft called urushi. Inspired by Chopard ambassador Japanese rugby player Keita Inagaki, the Alpine Eagle 41 Shikkoku Japan-Only breaks up the grades and does away with the date indication in order to preserve the contemplative monochromatic vibe of the dial.

Shikoku
Although Chopard fashion watches wholesale has made lacquered dials, this Alpine Eagle is not made with this ancestral craft. Instead, it comes in the signature black associated with lacquer. As the deepest black—the predecessor to Vantablack, if you will—the Japanese associate their impenetrable darkness with ideas of mystery, simplicity, and serenity associated with the Zen aesthetic.

Chopard launched its Alpine Eagle luxury sports watch in 2019, building on its sporty-chic but very dated 1980 St. Moritz watch. Available in a variety of complications, sizes and materials, the model chosen for the Japanese market is the 41mm Stainless Steel Time and Date.

monochrome dial
Sharing specifications with other 41mm chronograph and date Alpine Eagle models luxury watches cheap price, the novelty here is the attractive matte black dial with the typical striped pattern reminiscent of the iris of an eagle's eye. To underpin the dial's dark, almost lava-like atmosphere, the applied Roman numerals, hour markers and hands are also gloss black and enhanced with Cool Gray Super-LumiNova, giving them a stone-like appearance. The effect is attractive and somewhat rough compared to other Alpine Eagle dials. The arrowhead seconds hand with eagle feather weight is also black. As mentioned, the date window has been eliminated, allowing the texture of the dial to prevail.

Lucent Steel
In keeping with the brand's commitment to sustainable luxury, the watch and integrated bracelet are crafted from Chopard's proprietary Lucent steel. Developed with partner Voestalpine Böhler, the alloy is 50% more wear-resistant, harder (223 Vickers) and reflective and luminous (lucent) than conventional steel alloys, and is made of 80% recycled material. Like all Alpine Eagles, the tonneau-shaped case and circular bezel with eight alignment screws are finished with vertical brushed surfaces and polished bevels. The case is 9.7 mm thick, with a screw-down crown ensuring water resistance to 100 meters, protected by a crown guard and engraved with a compass.best luxury watches

Caliber 01.15-C
The self-winding movement of the other Alpine Eagle time and date model - Caliber 01.01-C - was redesigned to remove the date mechanism, resulting in the new Caliber 01.15-C. The movement, still certified as a chronometer by the COSC, beats at 28,800vph and offers a formidable 60-hour power reserve, displayed through the tinted glass case back.

Patek Philippe Nautilus 5711/1A

 The History of the replica Patek Philippe Nautilus Part 2. 5711/1A Since the 3700 was discontinued in 1990, the Nautilus line has not had a large and simple model. The medium-sized model 3800 was introduced in 1981, but between 90 and 2006 there were no giant steel watches in the collection. This was rectified in 2006 when Patek Philippe released the 5711/1A to coincide with the Nautilus' 30th anniversary. The 5711 remains generally the same as the original Big Mac, but there are some notable differences. The 5711 gained a seconds hand and the dial is a graduated almost electric blue hue, rather than the dark blue/black of its predecessor. It’s also been slightly “bigger” to suit modern tastes, and the case is no longer a one-piece, but a three-part construction. Other upgrades include luminova, a tri-fold on the 3700 blade, and a larger crown to match the thicker case and lugs. fake watches for sale There is no doubt that the 5711 is a beautiful watch. Timeless shape, design...
