Invicta Watch-Not Only ...


Swiss Precision
Swiss movement in watches are measured to be gold standard. Invicta watches prove it. A Swiss watchmaker named Raphael Picard created the first Invicta mechanical winding watch in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland in 1937. The Invicta Watch Group creates fine Swiss timepieces which are marketed all over the world. Picard made a deliberate name selection in “Invicta,” which means “invincible” in Latin. The name proved to be prophetic, as Invicta watches apparently achieved instant sales success. The great reputation of Swiss timepieces depends upon the steady consistency of replica watches like those first created by Picard. Raphael Picard determined a believe that create accurate, practical, multifunctional and fascinating products. The Invicta Watchespamy thrives on a reputation of accuracy and quality for over one hundred years since its foundation.

WOSTEP

WOSTEP paves the way for tomorrow’s watchmakers






Katja Schaer

Setting the standard for tomorrow’s Haute Horlogerie professionals. This is the mission that WOSTEP (Watchmakers of Switzerland Training and Educational Program) has given itself, through a specially-devised training method, the guarantee of excellence, which it makes available to watchmaking schools around the world. "We ensure that the 70 million highly technical watches manufactured over the past 15 years benefit from the care of qualified watchmakers," explains the centre’s director, Maarten Pieters.

Established in 1966 by the Federation of the Swiss Watch Industry and Ebauche (which now makes ETA movements), WOSTEP has over 40 years of Swiss watchmaking history to its name. It has followed the progress of an industry whose misfortunes it has sometimes shared and to which it owes its present-day structure. "The centre has come a long way since its early days," notes Maarten Pieters. "At that time we thought mainly in terms of after-sales. WOSTEP would train Americans who spent a few months in Switzerland learning the trade."

The lean years

The 1980s were tough times for the Swiss watch industry, and a turning-point for WOSTEP. At a time when quartz was supplanting mechanical watches, drained and about to give up the fight, WOSTEP was given a lifesaving injection of funds by some twenty watch brands.

In 1984 WOSTEP was back on its feet and, rather than concentrating on lessons given within its walls, put together a training plan. This methodical guide, comprising a 3,000-hour curriculum and specific assessment criteria, is proposed to partner schools. And so WOSTEP has become synonymous with quality in watch training.

The early 1990s brought the WOSTEP training programme its first American partner, in Oklahoma State University. "We maintain teaching standards as faculty staff come to us to refresh their knowledge, and we check students’ exam work, thereby guaranteeing quality," continues Maarten Pieters.

An eye on new markets

Currently with 14 partner schools, the Neuchâtel institution has its sights set beyond Europe and the United States. It already has two partner schools in Japan and one in Shanghai. Now WOSTEP is going with the growth and preparing for partnerships with schools in Hong Kong, Bombay and Malaysia.

"We’ve also received requests from Venezuela, India and Singapore," affirms Maarten Pieters. "However, we choose our partners carefully. It costs over CHF 1 million (over €600,000) for a school or university to set up a watchmaking department. It must also have the resources to maintain a relatively expensive infrastructure. The chosen partner must be able to take on these costs over the long term."

The challenge of tomorrow

While WOSTEP has, over the years, made its name as an international reference, drawing on support from the industry’s foremost brands, there are still new challenges to be faced. "For a number of years the industry focused on electronic watches, meaning few people trained on mechanical movements. We’re now lacking specialists with the skills to work on Haute Horlogerie products," notes Maarten Pieters with regret. Indeed, more than half the profession is over 50 years old, and no-one can say for sure who will take over. The first challenge is finding the qualified teachers to train them, given the apparent incompatibility of the two professions: "Watchmakers tend to live in 30 square centimetres," jokes Maarten Pieters. "They’re not always known for being extravert and communicative."

And this isn’t the only challenge. The profession of watchmaker, even at the high end of the market, no longer has what it takes to attract young people. "The luxury and desirability conveyed by the product don’t reflect on the image of servicing and repair, which are often perceived in a negative light. In Europe and the United States we’re already having a hard time finding people with the necessary motivation and dexterity. And it’s a shame because we could see one of the world’s most beautiful manual trades die out." And see a piece of history disappear with it. This is exactly what WOSTEP is intent on preventing, by guaranteeing the quality of Swiss Made on the one hand but also, to borrow Maarten Pieters’ words, "by defending the emotion and the dream that are part of the product and part of the watchmaker’s profession." ■

Unusual, Interesting and Unique Watches



Unusual, Interesting and Unique Watches


Watches can be different shapes, with different mechanisms and functions, case and dial, and, of course, may have different cost. They serve not only its primary function - to show time. Watches talk about the status of its owner, its financial situation, flavor, allegiances, the rhythm of life, and even mood.



Harry Winston redefines the luxury wristwatch as a mechanical artwork.

A rectangular case frames a tableau of precision mechanics, recalling the wheels, sliding pistons and rails of a steam locomotive. This mechanical installation can be viewed from unusual angles - through lateral windows in the upper and lower caseband.





The display on the Opus8 watch looks like an LCD at first glance, but upon closer examination, the digits are actually rendered by tiny metal plates which rise then retreat into the background.



In Opus9 presentation of time is in the form of two scales of diamonds. The model will be released a limited edition and only hundred lucky guys will get it.



Perrelet, specializing in the creation of energy through movement since 1777, was impressed by the power of the propulsion of aeroplanes,generated by its key element, the gas turbine. Focusing on this external component, an ingenious rotating device exploiting the force of the air, Perrelet has established a clear connection with its double rotor and the launch of its collection: TURBINE.





Cabestan Winch Tourbillion Vertical. This is not a watches, but an artwork from 1352 parts from nickel and silver. The basic model will cost you $ 275,000, also there are variants from platinum with diamonds - it is approximately $ 400,000.



These interesting watches were invented by Japanese designer Hironao Tsuboi. These watches display time using cunningly invented combinations of LEDs of different colors. This concept is original because watches have no dial. At all. Outwardly, this is a solid bracelet.



This watch is called Diesel No Face or if you prefer the Diesel DZ 9044. The watches is constructed from durable solid stainless steel with a bold black ion-plated finish and a matching black leather band, and is water resistant up to 10 ATM (about 330 feet).





Digitus is a luxury ring jewelry designed by Charles Windlin. There is a display on this ring that shows you the time, your personal calendar data and also acts as a beautiful jewelry.





Maximilian Büsser & Friends (MB&F) have come up with two stunning Horological Machines No3 (HM3) watch designs named Sidewinder and Starcruiser. The most striking feature of these two MB&F models is the movement with automatic rotor, which is upside down. It means you don’t have to turn your wristwatch over to boast its most appealing element. The 22K solid gold battle-axe shaped rotor on the dial of HM3 is a great addition to increase the recognition of the iconic MB&F symbol.

ABOUT SKAGEN DESIGN

ABOUT SKAGEN DESIGN
In 1989, Henrik and Charlotte Jorst came to the United States from their native Denmark to follow a dream: that of owning and running their own business, to introduce the Danish lifestyle and philosophy into the lives of many. Skagen Designs was founded by these two natives of Copenhagen on the principle that beautifully designed high-quality objects can be created at reasonable prices.

The Skagen Denmark Collections reflect owners Charlotte and Henrik Jorst's creative Danish spirit with clean, elegant designs, skillful craftsmanship and technical perfection. The Jorsts have a hand in designing each piece of the Skagen Collection, from watches to jewelry to sunglasses.

Vision Statement
By 2015, Skagen Designs will be the first choice among suppliers, customers, consumers, and employees as the most innovative and profitable design goods company within our chosen strategic segments, products and markets.


Mission Statement
Skagen Designs strives to create a global community of enthusiasts with our commitment to designing an impressive and unique yet attainable product while offering outstanding customer service to our customers and consumers.


About Skagen Denmark
For centuries, the little village of Skagen, Denmark, and its kilometers of white sandy beaches have been visited by artists seeking the magnificent light; artists who by the 19th Century had spread Skagen's beauty on canvasses that today are traded at leading auction houses. It is here where the natural purity and beauty of Danish design found its unique qualities. The small village on the edge of the sea continues to be the inspiration for all Skagen Denmark products.

About Charlotte Jorst, co-owner
As a wife and mother of two (teenage) daughters, Charlotte perfectly balances her family life with her success. And, as a champion equestrian, she manages to pursue and excel at one of her greatest passions. Today, we so often hear of women "doing it all" and Charlotte Jorst is indeed one of these women.


"I don't believe in big breaks," Charlotte explains. "I get up everyday and try to do my best. It is hard work, yes, but it's what makes 99.9% of people successful and, at the end of the day, is ultimately the most rewarding kind of success there is."

Charlotte's Danish roots instilled her with a love of nature that seamlessly links all aspects of her life together. Outside of the office, Charlotte embraces her love of everything outdoors, including regular competition at the highest levels (short of the Olympic team) of horse dressage, in addition to owning and running Skagen Stables, a small horse farm located in Reno.

Charlotte's motto for living life perfectly sums up her ability to do so much: "There is no reason not to try everything that interests you. Be patient, start at the beginning, remain positive and solve problems as they come."

About Henrik Jorst, co-owner
"While overseeing the design of all of our Skagen products, I find inspiration from many different arenas, continually pushing the brand to the next level, keeping our image current and yet maintaining our true identity."

A highly competitive tennis player, Henrik now acts as a member of the The International Tennis Club of Denmark and continues to represent Denmark in international matches.

Off the court and on the greens, Henrik also pursues his passion for golf. In addition, Henrik is an avid collector of classic cars. With 21 cars currently in his collection, including rare Jaguars, a Porsche, a Ferrari "Dino" and two Cadillacs, Henrik's fascination with mechanics, from timepieces to cars, is apparent.

Henrik's ability to excel when faced with challenge, whether in his professional or personal life, is grounded in his distinctly Danish philosophy: "Keep it simple. Seek out what you love and doggedly pursue your passions."



International Business
Skagen Designs has offices in the US, Denmark and Hong Kong. Skagen's business is expanding exponentially in Europe and even more so throughout the Asia Pacific region. Skagen operates two flagship stores in Denmark, one in the inspirational starting point of Skagen, Denmark and the other in the bustling, modern downtown Copenhagen. Additionally, independent Skagen concept stores are located in Tokyo, Osaka and Nagoya, Japan and Taipei, Taiwan with new openings in Korea planned for later this year. The Skagen Denmark product proves to be a top-seller in many markets from Singapore, Malaysia and Australia, and more store openings are planned in the next few years.

Longing for the depths

Longing for the depths






Each of these watches became increasingly more alluring and outrageous sports design and the reasons are both amateurs and experts among divers. Will tell you about watches that are excellence of clock and watch art, and their technology is so sophisticated that they can reach depths fantastic. Companies simply demonstrate their abilities.

Among the criteria that a clock must meet to be called "diving watch are those for resistance to shock waves and magnetic and dial must be sufficiently bright. The ring around the dial must be able to turn to more easily measured over time. Strap and lens must be sufficiently strong, a mechanism must function perfectly at depths exceeding 100 m.

Clocks with ease enter into this category are Rolex (Oyster 1926; Submariner 1953; Sea-Dweller 1971), Panerai (Luminor 1950), Blancpain (Fifty Fathoms 1953), Breitling (Superocean 1957), Jaeger-LeCoultre (Memovox Deep Sea 1959; Polaris 1963), Girard-Perregaux (Sea Hawk Deep Diver 1965), IWC (Aquatimer 1967), Omega (PloProf 1971) and Tag Heuer (Aquaracer, 1985).

Watch for big brands only way "up" that remains "down" when seeking to remain in orbit close to Earth. Last year, Rolex presented Oyster Perpetual Sea-Dweller Deepsea allowing diving to a depth of 3900 m. The other achievements are impressive, but remain far behind, such as Omega Ploprof, which is resistant to 1200 meters is hardly necessary to say, that such clock must have a release valve for helium. The reason for this is that helium molecules are among the smallest in nature, and work on greater depth in air is helium. Unpleasant consequence is that decompression can damage the clock.

A recent innovation is a device for measuring the depth of the company developed Favre-Leuba. Jaeger-LeCoultre made another instrument with the same function, working up to 80 m depth and used in Aquatimer Deep Two ... In the hands of masters clockworks is not only style but also your safety.

Development of the Timepiece Business
With the launch of its first watch in November 1974, Casio entered the wristwatch market at a time when the watch industry had just discovered digital technology. As a company with cutting-edge electronic technology developed for pocket calculators, Casio entered this field confident that it could develop timepieces that would lead the market.

In developing its own wristwatches Casio began with the basic question, "What is a wristwatch?" Rather than simply making a digital version of the conventional mechanical watch, we thought that the ideal wristwatch should be something that shows all facets of time in a consistent way. Based on this, Casio was able to create a watch that displayed the precise time including the second, minute, hour, day, and month — not to mention a.m. or p.m., and the day of the week. It was the first watch in the world with a digital automatic calendar function that eliminated the need to reset the calendar due the variation in month length. Rather than using a conventional watch face and hands, a digital liquid crystal display was adopted to better show all the information. This culminated in the 1974 launch of the CASIOTRON, the world’s first digital watch with automatic calendar. The CASIOTRON won acclaim as a groundbreaking product that represented a complete departure from the conventional wristwatch.

Casio transformed the concept of the watch — from a mere timepiece to an information device for the wrist — and undertook product planning based on this innovative idea. We developed not only time functions such as global time zone watches, but also other radical new functions using Casio’s own digital technology, including calculator and dictionary functions, as well as a phonebook feature based on memory technology, and even a thermometer function using a built-in sensor. The memory-function watches became our DATA BANK product series, while the sensor watches developed into two unique Casio product lines of today: the Pathfinder series displaying altitude, atmospheric pressure, and compass readings.

In 1983, Casio launched the shock-resistant G-SHOCK watch. This product shattered the notion that a watch is a fragile piece of jewelry that needs to be handled with care, and was the result of Casio engineers taking on the challenge of creating the world’s toughest watch. Using a triple-protection design for the parts, module, and case, the G-SHOCK offered a radical new type of watch that was unaffected by strong impacts or shaking. Its practicality was immediately recognized, and its unique look, which embodied its functionality, became wildly popular, resulting in explosive sales in the early 1990s. The G-SHOCK soon adopted various new sensors, solar-powered radio-controlled technology (described below), and new materials for even better durability. By always employing the latest technology, and continuing to transcend conventional thinking about the watch, the G-SHOCK brand has become Casio’s flagship timepiece product.

Today, Casio is focusing its efforts on solar-powered radio-controlled watches: the built-in solar battery eliminates the nuisance of replacing batteries, and the radio-controlled function means users never have to reset the time. In particular, the radio-controlled function represents a revolution in time-keeping technology similar to the impact created when mechanical watches gave way to quartz technology. Through the further development of high radio-wave sensitivity, miniaturization, and improved energy efficiency, Casio continues to produce a whole range of radio-controlled models.

What are the functions of the clock

We are interested in so far as we know exactly what to buy the clock. Besides the main function, which consists of measuring the time, most watches offer various extras. A chronograph stopwatch. The clock can be fitted with an alarm, the time may be measured in two different time zones to show the various phases of the moon, etc. So before you buy, consider what you should watch and what price you could get it .
Stability and reliability
Reliability is a key factor for a clock. As a sports watch should be waterproof. The standard is the watch can withstand up to 50 meters, but most good watches are water resistant to several hundred meters. This clock must withstand high altitudes and is resistant to extreme temperatures.
Warranty on the clock
Each manufacturer offers a guarantee of their products. Guarantee is usually about a year. There are, however, companies that offer security for several years. When you buy a watch, make sure you receive it in its original packaging together with all information materials. Review the documents and security. Necessarily ask for service and support. This is very important. THIS IS A GREAT WATCH!

Какви са функциите на часовника
Интересуват ни дотолкова, доколкото знаем точно за какво купуваме часовника. Освен основната функция, която се изразява в измерване на времето, повечето часовници предлагат различни екстри. Хронографите имат секундомер. Часовникът може да е снабден с аларма, може да измерва времето в две различни часови зони, да показва различните фази на луната и т. н. Затова преди да купите, преценете за какво точно ви трябва часовникът и на каква цена бихте могли да го получите.
Стабилност и надеждност
Надежността е основен фактор за един часовник. Един спортен часовник например трябва да бъде водонепроницаем. Стандартът е часовникът да може да издържа до 50 метра, но повечето добри часовници са резистентни на вода до няколкостотин метра. Такъв часовник трябва да издържа на големи височини, да е устойчив и при екстремни температури.
Гаранция на часовника
Всеки производител предлага някакъв гаранционен срок на продукцията си. Обикновено гаранцията е около година. Има компании обаче, които предлагат гаранция за няколко години. Когато купувате часовника, уверете се, че го получавате в оригиналната му опаковка, заедно с всички информационни материали. Прегледайте и документите за гаранцията. Попитайте непременно за сервиз и поддръжка. Това е много важно.

What is the metal



A beautiful watches are made of steel, 14 - or 18-carat gold, of platinum or in some combination of these materials. Each metal has specific characteristics. As gold is softer than steel and could be scratched easily. However, it is most often chosen material for the impact that creates. Platinum is also frequently used material from prestigious brands, as it is hard and rarest of all ferrous metals. Stainless steel and titanium are resistant metals which are used for making sports watches them and hand chains.
What is the price
Must be in our pockets, of course. It is good to know that the price always depends on the materials used in the hull, and the chain dial. Often 50 to 75% of the clock is determined by its mechanism. In watches with extra features, the number of parts used to make the mechanism can reach 600. A vast quantity of labor input for the assembly of the mechanism of so many small particles determines the final price of the clock.
Development of the Timepiece Business

Какъв е металът
По-хубавите часовници се изработват от стомана, 14- или 18-каратово злато, от платина или пък в комбинация от някои от изброените материали. Всеки метал носи специфични характеристики. Златото например е по-меко от стоманата и би могло да се надраска по-лесно. Въпреки това е най-често избиран материал заради ефекта, който създава. Платината също е често използван материал от престижни марки, тъй като е най твърдият и най-редкият от всички цветни метали. Неръждаемата стомана и титаният са издържливи метали, които се ползват за направата на спортни часовници и ръчните им верижки.
Каква е цената
Трябва да е по джоба ни, естествено. Добре е да знаем, че цената невинаги зависи от материалите, използвани за корпуса, верижката и циферблата. Често 50 до 75 % от цената на часовника се определя от неговия механизъм. При часовници с допълнителни функции броят на частите, които се използват за направата на механизма, може да достигне до 600. Огромното количество труд, вложено за сглобяването на механизма от толкова много малки частици, има определящо значение за крайната цена на часовника.

What is the mechanism



Quartz watches are nearly 90% of all watches manufactured today. They are much simpler and cheaper than everyone else. No need for winding or any special attention. Supplied by a quartz crystal and battery. Are extremely accurate, usually given only a minute or several minutes deviation per year.
For perfectionists, mechanical watches are the preferred option. They made a minimum of 130 individual components. Are more difficult to service. If we want the clock to work perfectly, we must not forget it rolled. Exceptions are cases in which there samonavivasht clock mechanism driven by the force of gravity on the movements of the wrist. We must not forget that mechanical watches like luxury cars require lubrication every few years to work optimally.
Contrary to some popular perceptions, so-called precious stones used in the clock mechanism, are not so important. They have no value of precious stones, as generally small synthetic rubies are used in several key locations in the mechanism because of their low rubdown. Not worth much and do not add value to watch. In a standard clock mechanism is used at least 17 stone.

Какъв е механизмът
Кварцовите часовници са близо 90 % от всички часовници, произвеждани днес. Те са значително по-опростени и по-евтини от всички останали. Нямат нужда от навиване или от каквото и да било специално внимание. Захранват се от кварцов кристал и батерия. Изключително акуратни са, обикновено дават само около минута или няколко минути отклонение на година.
За перфекционистите механичните часовници са предпочитаният вариант. Те са направени минимум от 130 индивидуални компонента. По-трудни са за обслужване. Ако искаме часовникът да работи перфектно, не трябва да забравяме да го навиваме. Изключение правят случаите, в които часовникът има самонавиващ се механизъм, задвижван от силата на гравитацията при движенията на китката. Не трябва да забравяме, че механичните часовници подобно на луксозните автомобили се нуждаят от смазване на всеки няколко години, за да работят оптимално.
Противно на някои разпространени схващания, т. нар. скъпоценни камъни, използвани в механизма на часовника, не са толкова важни. Те нямат стойност на скъпоценни камъни, тъй като обикновено са малки синтетични рубини, използвани на няколко ключови места в механизма заради ниското си ниво на фрикция. Не струват много и не добавят стойност към часовника. В стандартен часовников механизъм се използват минимум 17 камъка.
