The Vanguard Minute Repeater Skeleton Tourbillon watch introduced this time is FRANCK MULLER's super-complication masterpiece that has not been seen for many years. It not only combines the minute repeater and the flying tourbillon, but also interprets it in a superb skeleton form, using exquisite craftsmanship to create a watch from the beginning. A comprehensive sensory experience from hearing to vision. Vanguard's large and rounded bottle-shaped case is not only a platform for craftsmanship, but also a runway for showing every detail of the watchmaker's ingenuity.

Smaller, fresher ivy-style dial colours and a new interchangeable bracelet system. high quality cheap watches
In 2020, Seiko made a splash when it announced the long-dormant “Grand Seiko King” would return. Our readers will recall that the Grand Seiko and King Seiko sub-brands were the result of an interesting experiment to foster competition between the Dani Seikosha (Grand Seiko) and Suwa Seikosha (King Seiko) watchmakers. In the 1960s, the brand positioned the two as internal rivals, designed to stimulate healthy competition, push both sub-brands to achieve greater precision and become the brand’s flagship models. While the name “Grand Seiko King” suggests dynastic hegemony, it did not enjoy Grand Seiko’s uninterrupted trajectory, falling victim to the quartz shift. After a long hibernation, Seiko decided to reawaken the King Seiko in 2020 with the KSK SJE083, based on a vintage model from 1965. Now a standalone collection, the latest news for the King Seiko is the launch of three 36mm models with dial colors reminiscent of preppy ivy style and some novel bracelets. high quality cheap watches
Until today, the Japanese version of the KSK series (KS stands for King Seiko and K for Kisei-Tsuki, or stop seconds) has been available in three-hand models with diameters of 37mm (no date) and 38.3mm (with date). The new 36mm model is the smallest yet, but it has the same angular, vintage-inspired case and faceted lugs as its KSK predecessor. The case is 11.62mm thick and features alternating bright mirror-polished or Zaratsu-polished surfaces with a hairline finish, and is fitted with a box-shaped sapphire crystal that highlights its vintage architecture. The crown and caseback are printed with the original King Seiko emblem, and the case is water-resistant to 100 meters. Bremont Terra Nova Dual-Time Tourbillon
The innovation of this watch lies in the way the bracelet is connected to the case. Unlike the larger model, which had three links extending from the lugs to the first row of the tapering 7-link bracelet, the new watch has a straight connection, making the watch look more compact. Another advantage of this new bracelet connection is the double-lever system that allows you to quickly remove the bracelet and exchange it for any of the ten different leather straps sold separately. The vintage-style bracelet is fitted with a modern folding clasp with push buttons. replica mens watches
Another innovation is the “ivy-style” color scheme of the dial, a nod to the Ivy League schools in the northeastern United States, which originated in the late 1950s and spread to Japan in the 1960s. The light blue dial (SPB457J1) is inspired by the classic color of the ubiquitous Oxford button-down shirt. The ivy green dial (SPB459J1) recreates the color of the regimental tie popular on Ivy League campuses, while the burgundy dial (SPB461J1) often appears on rugby shirts. The applique rectangular hour markers are polished to catch the light, and the iconic noon marker is twice as wide and has a fine pyramid pattern texture. The flat multi-faceted hands are also Zaratsu polished to emit a bright sheen and look so sharp that they seem to cut through silk. Also new to the 36mm is the use of Lumibrite on the hands and indexes to improve readability in the dark. replica watches swiss
The 36mm KSK is powered by the Seiko 6R51 no-date movement, rather than the larger model’s in-house automatic 6R31, which has a slightly longer power reserve of 72 hours. This is only a small improvement over the 70 hours offered by the 6R31, but an improvement nonetheless. The movement runs at 21,600 vph and has an adjustment range of -15 to +25 seconds per day, although Seiko movements are known to operate well within this range.
