casio g-056 non electro-luminescent

TweetEmailI'll admit that Watch Report tends to be a little biased toward men's watches,but being a pretty big G-Shock fan in general, I have to make the occasional exceptionfor Baby-G's. If you're a guy, and you're about to head off to Google to searchfor a more manly watch, aren't you forgetting that it's almost the holidays,and that Casio Baby-G watches make wonderful and affordable gifts?As far as I know, these are the first G-Shocks (Baby or otherwise) to appear asanything other than round (or roundish) since the initial square G-Shocks were introducedback in 1983. They rounded out in 1987, and have remained that way until now. Notonly are these newest Baby-G's square, but they're colorful, sophisticated, andfun. In the words of David Johnson, vice president of Casio's Timepiece Division:"Casio's newest timepieces are trendy, stylish and extremely functional.The Baby-G's are the perfect accessory for today's busy lifestyle, matchingsupreme style with advanced features that make your life easier. The new squareBaby-G's are just the right thing to add a dash of rogue style to the latest springlooks. On the flip side they can add the necessary polish to an outfit for the boardroom.As versatile as they are chic, they're a sign of the times. It's hip to be square!"While I'm pretty sure these words were actually written by someone in PR and/orMarketing as opposed to being uttered by David Johnson himself, I wouldn't disagreewith them.

The watchmakers from A.Lange & Sohne have proven once again their dedication to achieving perfection, perfection of style and perfection of technical vision. A.Lange & Sohne is a brand with a solid reputation that bears on its shoulders the Saxon tradition in watch manufacturing, the amazing timepieces created by this brand being synonymous with performance and amazing artistry in terms of design. With a worldwide reputation for *** use of precious materials, like the untreated German silver and the distinctive three quarter plate, A Lange & Sohne can brag itself for bringing on the market some of the most fashionable timepieces, considered valuable pieces of Haute Horology by people interested in quality. To celebrate the name of its founding father, F.A. Lange, the brand has decided this year to inaugurate a new collection dedicated to excellence, a collection that features three timepieces of equal beauty and performance: The Tourbograph "Pour le Merite", Lange 1 Tourbillon "Homage to F.A. Lange" and 1815 Moonphase "Homage to F.A. Lange". These three pieces are characterized by a *** vision of design that impresses through the quality of the materials employed in the manufacturing process. Just like the other timepieces presented by A.Lange & Sohne, the new Lange 1 Tourbillon "Homage to F. A. Lange" Watch provides that unique appeal given not only by the prestige of its manufacturing brand, but also by the sensuality of its design lines. The new Lange 1 Tourbillon "Homage to F. A. Lange" Watch reminds the loyal A.Lange & Sohne fans of the brand's 165th anniversary, the moment being celebrated as deserved with the introduction of this unique piece of Haute Horology, which is equipped with a stop-seconds movement. Quite an impact, the new watch embraces the same ***, yet extremely elegant design, being constructed from 18 K pink gold. The case measures just 38. 5 mm in diameter, which makes it easy to wear at any occasions due to its refined approach to size. The refined design is completed by the extremely ordered dial that provides all functions in an interesting spacious manner. The silvery guilloched dial comes equipped with gold detailing for the hands, Roman numerals and the date-window display. The traditional hours and minutes are shown through a sub-dial located near 9 o'clock position, while the date window is present between 1 and 2 o'clock. The functions provided by the new Lange 1 Tourbillon "Homage to F. A. Lange" Watch owe their inner working to the manually wound movement based on the Calibre L961.2 that can provide 1 minute tourbillon function with the possibility of stop seconds, a technical element patented by A.Lange& Sohne. Also, this movement can offer up to an amazing 72 hours of power reserve. The strap of the new A.Lange & Sohne Lange 1 Tourbillon "Homage to F. A. Lange" Watch matches perfectly the goldy design, being crafted from brown alligator leather and fitted with a honey-gold clasp for the utmost safety. Lange 1 Tourbillon "Homage to F. A.
