Claude Meylan – Rattrapante
“Split Second” Automatic Chronograph
|
Mint condition and hardly used Claude Meylan Rattrapante “Split Second” Automatic Chronograph. Originally purchased Sept 2006 and less than a year old before coming into stock. Claude Meylan is manufactured in L'Abbaye, Switzerland. L'Abbaye is located in the heart of the Vallee de Joux. In this small valley the finest watches in the world are produced. Brands such as Breguet, Jaeger LeCoultre, Audemars Piguet. Claude Meylan as the company exists today started life in 1972 when Henri Berney founded his watch making company Berney-Blondeau S.A. In 1990 Mr Berney bought up the name "Antigone", a brand created in 1950 in Geneva and, in 1998, the brand "Chandler" from Jeanbourquin S.A. in La Chaux-de-Fonds. In 2000 Mr Berney retired and sold Berney-Blondeau to another concern. But his daughter, Mrs Voutaz, with the help of her father, carried on under the firm's name “Antigone” In 2002 she took over the brand "Claude Meylan", a reputed brand well known for its fine sophisticated watches. The brand Claude Meylan is reserved to the most valuable time pieces of Antigone's production (gold watches, chronographs, some fine pocket watches. The rattrapante or split second chronograph watches are highly sought after pieces as they are not commonly found, and in particular they are less commonly found at the more cost effective end of the market, they are more often seen costing £3,000 upwards. The rattrapante mechanism works in a very clever way and the movement on the watch needs a lot of work and modification to make it work in such a way. It works as such: when the chronograph is initialised, it works as a regular chronograph. When the user wants to time a second event the pusher at the 10 position is pressed and the main chronograph hand stops and a second chronograph hand moving under the primary hand continues to operate. It is an ingenious mechanism and an absolute joy to operate. The subsidiary seconds are at the 9 position, the twelve hour recorder at the 6 position, the thirty minute elapsed timer at the 12 position and a date pointer hand at the 3 position. The watch has got a scratch resistant sapphire crystal, and is a decent size. It has a 60 minute uni directional ratchet operated pilot style bezel for an additional timing function. It has a mat black dial with super luminova luminous boll markers and hands. Altogether very practical, and functional watch packed with features and functionality, you cannot fit many more features into a watch. It has got a screw down crown and screw on solid steel case back and is water resistant to 10 ATM (not tested). It is solid stainless steel and a large and durable watch. Comes on replacement strap but complete with the original boxes and papers. Width is 40 mm excluding crown, 44 mm including crown, Lug to lug is 46 mm, Thickness is 15 mm Ref: NWW 476.

Rado
Original Diver
|
Mint condition, just three months old and barely used Rado 300 metre Original Diver. This watch has a lot of clever features not immediately noticeable from first glance, but a lot of thought has gone into the construction and design all detailed below. Rado's headquarters are situated in Lengnau near Biel, Switzerland. The company has a workforce of about 300 in Switzerland and abroad. The company celebrated its 90th birthday in 2007. At the same time, Rado looked back on fifty years of watch production and 40 successful years with the legendary DiaStar collection. In 1957, after 40 years as a supplier of watch movements, the firm launched its first collection under the brand name Rado. And only five years later, with the legendary oval DiaStar – the world's first scratchproof watch – the foundation stone was laid for an exceptional success story. For Rado, the development of a new watch means coming to terms with Time, in the quest for an outstanding creation that captivates with its materials and its form. Thus, the form of the watches does not simply mirror their functionality but embodies a philosophy that manifests itself in the design of the watch. The attainment of such sophisticated objectives requires designers who understand the scratchproof Rado materials and development engineers who can work together with the designers. Rado watches truly combines exquisite form with function, as the movement accuracy embedded within the watch internally complements its durable exterior. The Original Diver watch is based on one of their early 1970’s designs. It is a handsome and sporty looking watch, with a pleasant looking a colourful dial. The case is substantial, large and heavy, it is constructed from stainless steel. The top bezel though, where it would usually pick up marks is made from scratch resistant tungsten carbide.

In this small valley the finest watches in the world are produced. Brands such as Breguet, Jaeger LeCoultre, Audemars Piguet. Claude Meylan as the company exists today started life in 1972 when Henri Berney founded his watch making company Berney-Blondeau S.A. In 1990 Mr Berney bought up the name "Antigone", a brand created in 1950 in Geneva and, in 1998, the brand "Chandler" from Jeanbourquin S.A. in La Chaux-de-Fonds. In 2000 Mr Berney retired and sold Berney-Blondeau to another concern. But his daughter, Mrs Voutaz, with the help of her father, carried on under the firm's name “Antigone” In 2002 she took over the brand "Claude Meylan", a reputed brand well known for its fine sophisticated watches. The brand Claude Meylan is reserved to the most valuable time pieces of Antigone's production (gold watches, chronographs, some fine pocket watches. This watch has an ingenious and simple method of operation. The alarm setting is operated by pressing the button at the 2 position, this releases the winding crown to a second position, which when turned, allows you to set the alarm indicator (the black arrow tipped hand). When the desired time is selected, you press the crown back in. The alarm will then sound on cue and is loud enough to wake you up from sleep. To cut the alarm, simply press the button at 2. The back has a second cover with holes in the second cover, and is raised to allow for sound resonance. Very clever internal design and acoustics make this a very loud alarm.
