Published November 25, 2015 / by avant1replicawatches

Inspired by replica Omega the lunar dust that captured mankind’s first and last steps on the Moon, this model is crafted from white ceramic that has been transformed to a shimmering metallic grey. The 44.25mm white case material is subjected to 20,000 degrees Celsius for replica Omega three hours in the plasma heating chamber, which containing different gases, which causes it to turn grey. The case, caseback, bezel, crown, pushers and buckle are all  replica Omega crafted from the same ceramic material.

OMEGA’s new Speedmaster “Grey Side of the replica Omega Moon”, bearing reference number 311.93.44.51.99.001, is hitting stores soon. This piece is a follow-on to 2013’s highly-demanded Speedmaster “Dark Side of the Moon”, and while it shares some similarities, it also features several design elements that distinguish it from any other model the brand has ever introduced, such as grey ceramic case, luminous ceramic bezel, and a sand-blasted platinum dial.

The replica Omega sand-blasted 950 platinum dial gives the Speedmaster “Grey Side of the Moon” looks absolutely killer and underscores the craftsmanship that went into creating the Omega replica watch. Two integrated platinum sub-dials distinguish the timepiece from its legendary predecessor, OMEGA’s “Moonwatch”; the 12-hour and 60-minute counters on the same sub-dial at the 3 o’clock position, while the sub at 9 o’clock is the small running seconds. The red-tipped, center-set seconds hand is for the chronograph. Look closely and you will also see a small “Pt 950” notation just above the center hands on the dial.

Though not pictured, engraved on the caseback is the name of the Omega replica watch: “GREY SIDE OF THE MOON”. The Speedmaster “Grey Side of the Moon”replica Omega  is presented on a grey leather strap and has a rubber insert with holes on the area where the buckle is fastened for added durability. You can see also on the underside of the strap there is red stitching that complements the red accents on the replica Omega Co-Axial calibre 9300 visible through the sapphire crystal caseback. The Cal 9300 is a co-axial chronograph movement with a silicon balance spring.

While it does not carry the gravitas of the original “Moonwatches”, but as for me well I love the modern look and replica Omega modern technology of both the “Dark Side” and “Grey Side” of the moon. The Omega replica watch comes in a special presentation box, and I’d guess that it will be every bit as popular as the Dark Side of the Moon…and the same price, too: $12,000.

THE SCHUMACHER REPLICA OMEGA SPEEDMASTERS

Published November 20, 2015 / by avant1replicawatches

The Omega replica Speedmaster is perhaps the greatest icon in the watchmaking world. For over 50 years, the Speedy has been the gold standard by which all high-end chronos are measured, and the history of the line can fill volumes (in fact we have: check out our series on the history of the Speedmaster here). However, for all that game-changing, moon landing history, and the dizzying array of variants, there’s one line of Speedmasters that always seems to fall by the wayside somewhat: the Speedmaster Schumacher.
It’s easy to forget with the NASA heritage and the Moonwatch designation (which, even as a racing fan, I can’t argue, is the coolest distinction ever awarded to a timepiece) that the Speedmaster line was designed as a racer’s swiss fake watch, and the Schumacher Speedys take that to the nth degree by partnering with the man who, by the numbers at least, is the single greatest racing driver of all time- Michael Schumacher.

'96 Schumacher Speedy

He didn’t just push his body, he pushed teams to the limits of their performance as well, logging so many testing laps at Ferrari’s Fiorano test track during his time with the team, that many Ferrari personnel only half-jokingly began to wonder if he was a machine himself, constantly pounding around and feeding the team data about the car. On the other hand, this insatiable desire for victory led him to moves which were called dangerous and unsportsmanlike. In the last Grand Prix of the season in 1997, for example, Schumacher deliberately crashed into his championship rival, Williams driver Jacques Villeneuve, in order to secure the title for himself. This move resulted with Schumacher being excluded from the entire 1997 points standings and Villeneuve being given the title.

Since 1996, replica Omega has commemorated the legendary driver with the Speedmaster Schumacher, and several variants stand out from the rest. The original red variant from 1996 adds a vibrant pop of color while celebrating Michael’s first year at Ferrari, but for my money the most attractive model is the “Legend” variant from 2004, available with white, black or red dial. The black, especially, is a well-executed reverse panda style dial, and the contrast between the elements is stunning. As for size, all Speedmaster Schumachers are Speedmaster Reduced automatic models with a 39mm diameter. While for many, this is improper for a Speedy, as opposed to the Moonwatch’s 45mm size, for myself and many others 39mm hits that apex of wearability perfectly. The Schumachers, especially the Legend series, are versatile enough to dress up or down, fitting all but true dress-cheap replica watch occasions. As for price, well-documented examples  range from about $3000-$4000.

Replica MB&F HM6 RT Watch In Red Gold

MBF-HM6-RT-Front-RG

As of late, the Red Dot Design Awards for 2015 were held in Germany – and one of the huge victors in the watch class was the Replica MB&F HM6. MB&F was the main mechanical watch to acquire a desired Red Dot: Best of the Best grant (the Apple Watch likewise won, obviously, it is not mechanical). To pay tribute to that grant, MB&F is discharging the second form of the HM6 known right now HM6 RT – which replaces the titanium instance of the first MB&F Horological Machine No. 6 with one in 18k red gold. Any red gold, as well as one with palladium in it which balances out the copper. They call this composite 5N+ (5N is the term for 18k red gold).

What does that mean? It is fundamentally the same idea right now gold or Replica Omega‘s Sedna rose gold. That implies that after some time, the copper is not right now destroying bringing about the gold to turn more yellow, versus staying red gold. We have talked finally about the Replica MB&F HM6 watch when appearing it here. I urge anybody to visit the past article to find out about the extremely fascinating MB&F HM6 watch and what makes it exceptional.

With 10 sapphire gems everywhere throughout the case and a novel “biomorphic” look, the MB&F HM6 is a standout amongst the most vanguard (and extravagant) of the present day MB&F Horological Machine models. The 475 section development offers the time by means of discrete “domed circles” for the hour and minutes, a flying tourbillon, a titanium shield which can be opened and shut over the tourbillon, and additionally a “turbine controlled” programmed winding framework. Rich with eccentricity and specialized request, with a cost of over $200,000, the MB&F HM6 Space Pirate was one of a definitive top of the line toys for young men (who like sci-fi).

MB&F will deliver a sum of 100 MB&F HM6 observes throughout the models’ creation. The first MB&F HM6 replica watches Space Pirate in titanium was restricted to 50 pieces and the MB&F HM6 RT now adds another 18 pieces to the set.
