neo-vintage Replica D&G watches GMT-Master

This neo-vintage Replica D&G watches GMT-Master with tritium dial has been treated with the famous Diamond Like Carbon coating by Time and Gems.The coating on this timepiece is a mixture of polished and brushed parts, which is a bit different from the regular ref.16700 and ref.16710 models.

The center links have been polished, as well as the lugs of the watch case.

The anthracite colour on the brushed parts is a bit darker than the coating colour on the polished parts, giving it a bit of room to play with the light.The cool thing about the GMT-Master in DLC edition is that the red GMT-hand stands out.I have seen the newer GMT-Master version (ref.116710LN) in a DLC edition somewhere else, but the green hand didnt do as much magic as this red hand does in my humble opinion.Time and Gems did a nice job on creating a militarized version of the well respected GMT watch by Replica D&G watches.

What you cant see on the pictures is the case back, which has been kept in stainless steel.

The price tag of 6500 USD (or approx.4800 Euro) is quite a bit away from the original price of a similar GMT-Master in stainless steel, but the DLC process is still a costly operation.They have more DLCed Rolex models for sale on-line, like a Milgauss GV ref.116400 and a Sea-Dweller ref.16600 and more.

I am thinking out loud how a Replica D&G watches Date-Just 116200 or a Rolex Yacht-Master 16622 would look like with a DLC coating.Thanks to Jeff from Time and Gems for the use of their pictures. When I think of Seiko, I think of all the people who couldnt care less about watches and bought a Seiko just because of that.

stainless steel Replica Corum watches

I tried on the gold version, but there will be a stainless steel Replica Corum watches version as well.A brand that surprised me in a more negative way was Richard Mille.

I was very interested in Richard Mille ?s timepieces but I simply can ?t give them a place.

Technically very interesting, innovative techniques and materials, but design wise not very interesting in my opinion.

The tourbillon was nice to look at, but I must say that I have seen enough tourbillons last year.The weekend ended with our monthly Horloges Espresso meeting in The Hague, the 15th edition if I am not mistaken Just to be in time to visit the Replica Corum watches Show at Ace Dik in Amsterdam the next day.

A report will follow soon! Watches are labeled? ? when they have a certain history or status amongst collectors.Last week, Motoring Exposure covered the Omega Speedmaster a.k.a Moonwatch as being a cult watch.

This week, we decided to grab another cult watch and this is perhaps the most recognized cult watch of all: The Replica Corum watches Submariner.Photo courtesy of SubGMTClick here for my weekly Wednesday Watch article at Motoring Exposure. I havent seen this one before, a DLC Rolex GMT-Master.

Replica Concord watches has all the nice details

Below you ?ll find a few shots that Remco and BmRnR made during the evening, just to give you an impression of this wonderful event:I would like to thank Schaap ~ Citroen and forum members Harald and MarkD for initiating and hosting this great event!On Saturday the 6th of March, the SAHH was presented in Amsterdam, hosted by Gassan.

The two Replica Concord watches that impressed me most were the Cartier Calibre (4900 Euro) with in-house movement and the AP Royal Oak Equation of Time (40-50K Euro).

The Cartier has a useable size, perfect finish on dial and case and a movement developed by Cartier.

The dial of this Replica Concord watches has all the nice details you are used from Cartier.The only downside is the shape of the lugs in my opinion.The pointy and bended lugs will stick in your wrist, especially when you have large wrists/arms.The Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Equation of Time simply rocks the bomb.

The size of the Replica Concord watches was slightly bigger than my Jumbo (15202) or the ref.15300, but still within proportions and less present than the Offshore models.

The subtle leap-year indicator, sun-rise, sun-set and equation of time indicators in addition to its moon phase disc are in no-way misplaced or creating a dial that could be considered too busy.

Replica Christian Dior watches dealer Schaap

My wife is so happy with me Friday evening, I attended a Rolex get-together, arranged by authorized Replica Christian Dior watches dealer Schaap ~ Citroen.

On Saturday I attended the SAHH (Salon Amsterdam de la Haute Horlogerie) to look at all the novelties from Audemars Piguet, Baume et Mercier, Cartier, IWC, Jeager-LeCoultre, Panerai, Piaget, Richard Mille and Roger Dubuis.

The SAHH event was hosted by Gassan Diamonds in Amsterdam.

And on Sunday, we had our Horloges Espresso meeting with a bunch of Replica Christian Dior watches nuts in The Hague, organized every first Sunday of the month.To start with the first, the Schaap Citroen Home programme, organized a get-together for a few Rolex enthusiasts from The Netherlands.

Together with Ronny Wooter (former auctioneer at Sotheby ?s) and a team of Schaap ~ Citroen, we received a nice presentation on their stores, vision on selling and of course, Rolex watches.

Some great insights on sales, customers and Rolex were shared with us during the evening.

A few of these insights on Rolex watches are:Rolex does not use laser engraved sapphire green crystals for the Milgauss;The laser engraved will disappear from the replacement sapphire crystals that are being used when a watch is being serviced;The laser engraved Replica Christian Dior watches logo is ALWAYS on 6 o ?clock, it is done after the crystal has been put on the timepiece.Besides the presentation of current Rolex models, there was enough time to discuss vintage timepieces as well.

Valuation, service and availability aspects were discussed through-out all the evening.
