Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Control
Perpetual Calendar 18ct Rose Gold
|
Mint condition Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Control
Perpetual calendar automatic wristwatch in 18k gold. Whilst it is being
advertised early, the watch is not ready to ship as it is currently at
Jaeger-LeCoultre, undergoing a full and complete service. Jaeger le
Coultre model reference number is 140.2.80. The UK recommended retail
price on this model is GBP £2,1000 which is US $33,600 by today’s
exchange rate. Jaeger Le Coultre are one of the few elite Swiss
watchmakers who manufacture their own movements in house.
They are a company was established in 1833 in the Vallee de Joux
watch making region of Switzerland. They
are highly regarded for their quality timepieces, technical innovation,
and one of the most stringent and fanatical testing centres in
Switzerland. Jaeger-LeCoultre
have been instrumental in the development of wrist alarms, and they
developed the first automatic wrist alarm 1958. Jaeger-LeCoultre were also
instrumental in developing this complication and it is a function which is
popular and widely used in wristwatches today. This is a beautifully
engineered and crafted wristwatch which has got one of the finest calendar
movements in it. With Master
control, watch making pioneer, Jaeger-LeCoultre has created a new standard
of reliability in Swiss watch making. Each watch is therefore subjected to
a rigorous testing programme. Before being passed as a Master Control
watch, each timepiece must undergo 1,000 hours of the most severe tests.
This testing programme is more demanding than the official tests which
only involve the watch movement. At Jaeger-LeCoultre it is the finished
cased up watch, complete with hands and dial that is evaluated. The Master
Control watch has spent 1,000 hours under observation in Jaeger-LeCoultre’s
laboratories and has passed all the six position performance trials under
temperatures between 4 and 40 degrees Celsius and within magnetic fields
of 5,000 amperes/metre. The timepiece has also been subjected to shock and
vibration resistance tests and the case withstood water resistance to a
pressure of 5 atmospheres. Successful results in all of these tests give
the watch the exclusive right to bear the title of “Master Control 1000
Hours”, certified by the signature of the watchmaker – inspector
inside the case, and by the numbered seal engraved on the back of the
watch. It is a perpetual calendar which means that there is no need for a
date correction at the end of each month apart from leap years as the
watch know when a month ends on the 30th or 31st
days. It also has day, date, month, year and moon phase display. Another
clever feature is the window just above the centre of the dial. It
alternates between red and white. When showing red, the hands cannot be
moved backwards when adjusting the time. When shown white the hands can be
moved backwards to adjust the time. The case is solid 18 karat gold with a
sapphire crystal front and sapphire crystal back which displays the
beautifully decorated movement. It is 5 ATM water resistant. It comes with
the original mint condition brown alligator strap with a spare original
Jaeger-LeCoultre black alligator strap which is unused. It has the
original 18krat rose gold deployant buckle which s a fair chunk of gold
itself. Dimensions are: width 36 excluding crown, 38 mm including crown

Anonimo Chronowatch – Automatic
Chronograph
|
|
Anonimo was founded in
Florence, Italy in 1997 by Florentine designer and businessman, Federico
Massacesi. His vision was
to create a company specialising in the production of unique and high
quality Italian watches and remaining true to Florentine watch making
form and tradition. That
vision has catapulted Anonimo to become the most important Italian
company making high quality, unique and stylish wristwatches.
This was success was perpetuated by Panerai, an existing
Florentine company, being purchased by the Richemont Group.
After this acquisition, Panerai uprooted and left Florence
leaving an elite and established team of veteran watchmakers wishing to
continue their watch making tradition in Florence.
This wealth of expertise and skills of former Panerai staff
joined forces with Federico to form the cornerstone on which Anonimo’s
success has been built. This
is the chronowatch. It is
used but appears to be almost unworn and in 97% condition.
It is difficult to see it has been used at all.
The case is solid and sturdy stainless steel which is thick and
substantial. The back is
solid steel and is a screw on case back. It
has a screw down crown giving a water resistance of 10 ATM which is
approximately 100 metres. It has a raised sapphire crystal and shortened
elliptical pushers so as not to interfere with the design of the case.
The bracelet is also solid and sturdy and perfectly matches the
case. The clasp as the
Anonimo logo and it has a fliplock safety buckle.
The dial is brushed silver steel with machined sub dials which
give a slightly different silver finish to the brushed dial.
It has a combination of numerals and batons, which are large,
bevelled and applied. Has
an aperture in the dial at the 12 position, displaying the date.
This has a small magnifying lens which is under the dial.
The movement is an automatic Dubois-Depraz chronograph module.
The functions include chronograph with minute, hour and
continuous second counters and date. Ref.

Mint

Ikepod is billed as the “wristwatch redefined”, Ikepod banish all that
is unnecessary to reunite man and machine with the design authority and
organic power found in nature. This
is because the designs they take their inspiration from shapes and
patterns found not only in nature, but other objects designed to interact
with nature such as simple aerodynamics of a sports car or a surfboard.
Ikepod combines the technology of watch making with sensuality in
design to manufacture wristwatches which challenge connoisseurs to embrace
not only a timepiece but a bold new set of values.
Foremost amongst these values is the independence from the
conventions of traditional watch making design.
With belief in the modernist principals of “truth to materials”
and unity of form and function, Ikepod rejects gratuitous ornamentation in
order to highlight the simplicity of form.
It transforms what has previously been strictly a two dimensional
object into an organic, sculptural volume that functions in all three
dimensions. The Ikepod
approach deign is weighted with integrity.
When the design process strips away all excess the thing that
remains is unrivalled quality and purpose.
Ikepod demands intelligence and daring from its wearer and declares
individuality as the most exclusive form of luxury.

art works at museums all over the world.
The watch is space ship in shape and the inspiration in nature here
is more from that of a jellyfish. This
is model reference H02. The case is steel it is spherical in shape and
when viewed in profile, it is elliptical.

Marina
Militaire – Hand Wound Wristwatch in Titanium


|
Brand new and unused Marina Militaire hand wound
wristwatch in titanium. The watch has not been used before, but comes
without any boxes or papers. This type of watch is politely termed a
homage since it looks identical to famous brand – namely Panerai.
Calling it a replica is not quite correct as the watch doesn’t not have
the word Panerai anywhere on it. The Marina Militaires are popular watches
and make a large number of homage watches. The cost is a fraction of the t
real thing. The case specs and dimension is identical to a Panerai, so it
is generously proportioned, dimensions listed below. The case is brushed
titanium, with crown lock. It has a glass display back showing off the
movement. The movement is a nice looking Chinese made 27 jewel movement
which I believe is a Seagull movement, it is similar looking to a Unitas
6498. The dial is a mat black dial with luminous dial markings and hands.
Subsidiary second hand at the 9 position. The crystal is hardened mineral
glass with anti reflective coating. It comes on a brown leather strap,
with titanium buckle. All together an excellent watch and great value for
money. Dimensions are as follows. The dimensions are as follows: width is

viewing of the automatic movement. The watch is water resistant to 5
atmospheres (165 feet), the Chrono Lunar has a large 9mm knurled crown

Mint condition and hardly
used Jean Richard Bressel automatic chronograph. Daniel Jean Richard was born around 1665 in La Sange, today a
small Swiss village nestled in the famous watch making region between La
Locle and La Chaux-de-Fonds. He was a very talented silver smith making
jewelry and silver objects. A
jewelry dealer who saw his work asked him to repair an expensive watch. Not only did he repair the watch without any training in
watch making, but he managed to build an exact replica of the watch from
memory over a year later. In
the 1990’s the company was revived by the SoWind Group who also own
Girard Perregaux. Today and
from the beginning, the idea was to produce simple, affordable, yet high
quality watches song high quality stainless steel rather than precious
metals, robust cattle leather straps rather than expensive crocodile or
ostrich, and using strong and durable movements.
All of the savings made in these areas are invested in the
construction of the watch to produce best quality timepieces.
This one looks like it has hardly been used, but was purchased in
October 2003 so just under three years old.
It is a magnificent shaped and sized watch, which is round with
long lugs, extended pump pushers and over sized crown.

Chronoswiss Regulateur Automatic Wristwatch
|



|
Mint and barely used looking
condition Chronoswiss Regulateur, model reference CH 1223. The Regulator clock was originated in the 18th century by
Louis Berthould. He devised
the regulator dial. His
idea was that the minute hand should be very dominant, with hours and
seconds rotating within separate dials integrated into the watch face.
For the very first time this arrangement made the minute hand
stand out at all times. At
the time it was a groundbreaking invention, but one which also took
account of an emerging trend: people were becoming increasingly
interested in measuring the smallest unites of time.
They sensed a growing urge to keep a precise, uniform track of
time wherever they happened to be.
This assisted from industry, trade, communications, science,
navigation as well as everyday schedules such as keeping to correct
timetables for transportation. The new dial was incorporated in pendulum clocks called
regulators. The regulator
clocks became very precise and were used for determining official
standards until the 1960’s when they were replaced by millisecond
accurate atomic clocks. Today
the precision and aesthetics of a mechanical watch hold an enduring
fascination for us. The ageless principle of its working mechanism was first
re-created in wristwatch format by Chronoswiss. The
Regulator is the Chronoswiss flagship product and the watch that has
made the Chronoswiss brand. Chronoswiss was founded in 1982 by Gert
Lang. In 1982, the majority
of watches being made were mass produced quartz controlled watches, so Chronoswiss with
finely crafted mechanical movements were written off by the so called
experts as the claimed that such watches would not survive the current
trend for mass produced quartz watches.
However the critics forgot about the consumer, and that the
consumer wished, who actually liked the watches and found that if they
were going to invest a lot of money in a timepiece, it should be one
that is hand crafted rather than machine produced.
In 1988 Chronoswiss became the first watchmaker to transfer the
regulator dial used for large precision timepiece clocks to the
wristwatch, and in doing so, created a signature watch that has come to represent the ingenuity and craftsmanship of Chronoswiss, of
lasting value. Models such
as Pacific, Hora, Kairos and Orea followed, all of which being
mechanical gems. This is
the Regulator and is in excellent condition.
The case is stainless steel and has a fluted bezel, slender lugs,
sapphire crystal to the front and back, 3 ATM water resistant. The dial
and hands are classical in design, the dial is off white ivory colour
enamel style with blued hands, and subsidiary seconds at the 6 position.
Comes on replacement black leather strap with all boxes and
papers. The movement is a
Chronoswiss 29 jewel finely engraved and embellished caliber C.122,
which is based on an Enicar calibre 165 automatic.
It has a 38 hour power reserve and skeletonised gold plated
winding rotor. Hand crafted
with Cotes de Geneve stripes. Magnificent hand crafted watch and one to treasure.
