Fashion / Omega De Ville Hour Vision Blue - James Bond Choice by cindyyu830(f): 3:54am On Nov 03, 2015
This special Omega Hour Vision watch, called Hour Vision Blue, presents outstanding timepieces from the brand’s famous De Ville collection. With this very fashionable blue dial watch, Swiss watchmaker OMEGA joins ORBIS International’s fight against preventable blindness https://www.copywatchalike.is.

This replica Omega De Ville Hour Vision Blue watch is a true beauty. The secret of its beauty, in my opinion, lies in two facts: the specific blue colour dial and, the shininess of its hands. But let me start from the beginning.


Case

41 mm case in SS with a height of 12.2 mm. I had some doubts of such a ‘big’ height, but finally the watch sits just perfectly of my (very small) wrist.

Dial

Dial in eccentric sun-brushed blue, with bluish hour track (sic. Omega). For me it’s THE thing that makes this watch awesome. We had cloudy, shiny weather, and normal evening lights … in every situation this watch has a different colour. It’s like having three or four different watches. I must admit I’m not the greatest fun of Hour Vision’s ‘integrated circuit’, but on this one it’s very subtle and almost not visible.

Hands

18ct white gold facetted hour-minute-seconds hands and diamond polished 18ct white gold applied facetted indexes, date frame and omega sign. Those elements with the blue dial fit just perfectly. I know some people miss lume hands, but I think it wouldn’t be the same chemistry if the lime was added. The way minute hand overlap indexes is just perfect. The reflection of those white gold elements gives the wow effect to this watch.

The the bracelet is a black leather with a polished foldover clasp – very very very nice looking combination. I think I can wear this watch in every situation except probably during my diving and sport activities.

Fashion / Daniel Wellington Made A $200 Million Business Out Of Cheap Watches by cindyyu830(f): 3:40am On Oct 27, 2015
In 2006, Filip Tysander was backpacking through Australia when he met a wanderer named Daniel Wellington www.gdwatchclone.ru. This was back before everybody had a smartphone, when people still wore a watch to tell time. Wellington’s stood out for its bracelet—a minimalist black-and-gray nylon band, known as a NATO strap, securing a chunky Rolex Submariner to his wrist. After a few more chance encounters with Wellington between Melbourne and Cairns, Tysander became obsessed with the military-inflected accessory. So much so that he went home to Uppsala, Sweden, and built a whole company on the idea, naming it after the stranger who inspired him.

Daniel Wellington, or DW as the company is often abbreviated, makes watches that are both instantly recognizable and so generic they verge on invisible. They come with polished-steel or rose-gold-colored cases, in five sizes from a diminutive 26-millimeter to a medium-large 40mm. The dials are all white, with slim lines marking each hour and hands just wide enough to be legible. The only thing that noticeably sets DWs apart from each other is the strap, which comes in a half-dozen colorful nylons and a few leather options, none flashy enough to mar the luxurious look. With a watch, you often pay extra for minimalism—think A. Lange & Söhne or Piaget—but DWs are cheap, running from $149 to $299.

“Our watches are inspired by the upper echelons of the watch world but at a very accessible price point,” says Frans Sjo, business manager for the U.S. “It’s fair to say that we want everyone to be able to own a Daniel Wellington.” Four years ago, Tysander invested $15,000 to start the company. In 2014 it sold more than a million timepieces and took in $70 million. This year, Tysander projects $220 million in revenue. By comparison, Rolex, which sells $5,000-plus watches, and Tag Heuer, which focuses on $1,000 ones, consider it a good year if they sell a million units.

Which means that, right now at least, it’s good business to sell very expensive watches—or very cheap ones. DW competes with countless other brands in the $100 to $500 sector, including the Bauhaus-style Mondaine and the more military-looking Tsovet. But, in the same way that brightly colored plastic Swatches dominated the 1980s and utilitarian Fossils took off in the ’90s, Daniel Wellingtons own the current decade. “Often a designer watch whose core reason to exist is that it is fashionable this season is probably no longer viable next season,” says Steve Bock, former president of Fossil and current president of Bedrock Manufacturing, the parent company of Shinola watches.

Fashion / Men’s Celebrity Watch - Brad Pitt – TAG Heuer by cindyyu830(f): 3:22am On Oct 13, 2015

Fashion / Princess Kate's Cartier Ballon Bleu Watch by cindyyu830(f): 3:46am On Sep 29, 2015
England’s Kate Middleton has been seen wearing her Cartier Ballon Bleu timepiece during her 2014 trip to Australia. Kate isn’t the only person in the British royal family to wear Cartier.

Women in the royal family have been seen wearing Cartier Tank watches in the past–which have either square or rectangular cases and are considered a bit more classic. The Ballon Bleu is a relatively recent creation from Cartier coming in a round case with a loop over the crown to create a more rounded, curvy shape. Middleton here is wearing a traditional brand considered suitable for her station, but the specific model represents her personality and more youthful position in life.

It appears that Middleton is wearing the Ballon Bleu de Cartier Medium sized watches with the Swiss quartz movement. Cartier produces the Ballon Bleu in a range of sizes and with different movements (including both quartz and mechanical versions). The Ballon Bleu Medium (ref. W69011Z4) is in this instance seen in steel and is sized at 36.6mm wide. That is just a touch larger than the size of the iconic Rolex Datejust. A generation ago, 36mm wide was the size of a men’s watch, but today 36mm wide watches are typically worn by women, as men tend to wear larger watches, sized at 40mm and above.

The particular Ballon Bleu de Cartier model she is wearing is a modest model in in the collection. It comes without any diamonds and the quartz movement is priced less than the automatic mechanical models. This is probably the correct decision as Kate tends not to be flashy in how she dresses, and yet the elegant timelessness of the watch and brand does suit her style overall.
