Some pre-Basel 2009 news from our friends in Bienne, Switzerland. Every 5 years, Omega introduces a tribute Limited Edition Speedmaster Professional for the original 'Moonwatch' that landed on the Moon 21 July 1969, on the wrist of Buzz Aldrin.This coming July 21st, tag heuer watches will be 40 years ago that Aldrin had his caliber 321 Speedmaster Professional strapped on his space suit and Armstrong left his watch in the Lunar Module because of a defect electronic timing system. Check my earlier post on the exact Speedmaster models used during this mission. You can find it here: http://www.fratellowatches.com/archives/2008/07/21/omega-speedmaster-it-is-39-years-ago/.As you might know, I am a big fan of these Speedmaster Professional watches. They embody everything a perfect chronograph should be. Timeless casing, excellent readability, easy to operate chronograph buttons (no screw-down pushers), fit for stainless steel bracelets and leather straps, proven hand wound chronograph movement by Lemania (Omega caliber 1861) and a great history!Enough ranting about my favorite chronograph, le…The green production process of the watch manufacturer in Schaffhausen, is something to be proud of. Not only IWC, but a lot of other companies seem to embrace durable entrepreneurship and corporate social responsibility. One of IWC's projects is to support projects like David de Rothshild's Plastiki Expedition. David de Rothschild and his Adventure Ecology organization built a 60 foot catamaran made entirely of plastic bottles, PET plastic and recycled waste products. With this Replica Rolex Watches , named the Plastiki, David and his carefully picked crew members will sail approx. 10,000 nautical miles across the Pacific Ocean from San Francisco to Sydney.The name of this boat, Plastiki, was inspired by the famous Kon-Tiki expedition in 1947, lead by Thor Heyerdahl.To 'celebrate' (and make some money of) this joint venture between IWC and David Rothschild, IWC launched the IWC Ingenieur Automatic Mission Earth Edition (Limited Edition). There will be 1000 pieces of this special edition Ingenieur Automatic. The Mission Earth watch has been covered here earlier this year, right…I promised to get back on my new watch At first, I was looking at Rolex watches again, but couldn't make up my mind. Although I like the new GMT-Master IIc and the Milgauss, tag heuer ayrton senna watches wouldn't add much variation to my current collection. Then I was looking at the Royal Oak Jumbo, but I am not ready yet to spend over 8K Euro on one wrist watch. However, as I have written before, I am a huge fan of the 1970s design of Gerald Genta. He designed the Nautilus, Overseas, Royak Oak and�� the Ingenieur. The original ref.1832 Ingenieur SL is highly sought-after I believe, and the prices paid for those are unbelievable. So I decided to settle for a brand new one! To be honest, IWC isn't my brand. Omega and Rolex are my brand, I like what they are doing and like most of their watches. However, there are some other brands that make one or two types of watches that I really like, and that's it. I don't care much for IWC in general. Not my cup of tea. I do like the Ingenieur and the Portugieser line of watches though. Anyway, I've read some articles on the new…

What, at first sight, resembles the lapse of memory of a needle on behalf of the clock and watch maker is actually a scarcity: the regulator – with the needle of the minutes in the center and the offset indication of the hours and the seconds. There is an excellent reason with that: the Portuguese Regulator, with her movement of watch of pocket of manufacture, prolongs the long tradition of the observatory and marine chronometers.Several reasons explain the choice of the case 43,1 mm in diameter of a Portuguese to place the first regulator of IWC there.Created 70 years ago for the Portuguese market, the "watches of pocket for the wrist" which gave their name to a whole line of models were already of a remarkable precision and could be regarded as instruments of reference.The unequalled mechanical masterpiece which constitutes their interior life is at the base of such processes.The Portuguese Regulator remains faithful to this tradition of the house. Equipped with gauge 98245 of manufacture IWC, it is animated by a movement of watch of pocket which does not count only among most beautiful, but undoubtedly as among most authentic as one can still find nowadays in the world. Picture with IWC Portuguese Regulator WatchAs the designation of the gauge reveals it already, the basic construction of this movement rests on the cal. 98, that IWC has not ceased improving for more than 70 years and who represents a true stake of the clock *** technique. It is ally certain of the qualitative characteristics of the first movements of watch of pocket IWC, which go up at the time of its founder F. A. Jones, in 1868.Among those, let us quote in particular an in deformable turntable three quarters out of copper nickel zinc alloy and, like the most typical characteristic, the long arrow of racket for the adjustment fine, also called "arrow of Jones".Beyond this tradition, all the detail of the clock *** progress made since the time of Mister Jones is found in this movement high-end whose beam oscillates with the traditional alternation of 2,5 Hz – as the shock-proof device, the stopping of the second hand or the miscorrelate by eccentric on the arms of the screw press in Glucydur. A glance through the transparent bottom out of glass sapphire makes it possible however to note that only a specific decoration distinguishes this movement from that which also animates the Portuguese Special Jones Edition.With the shelter of the glances however, the timer placed under the Regulating dial of the Portuguese was modified of kind to allow the separate indication of the hour around "12 hours". The small last of the line of the IWC Portugueses, which for a long time personifies one of the rare "eternal" figures of the traditional design, fully expresses the assets of its giant format on the silver plated dial.All the indications underline the original goal of this type of watch: to indicate time in a clear and precise way. The long aciform needle in the center plays its part as much that the traditional timer "railroad", whose style takes as a starting point the the railway rails. The needle of the hours is activated in the small dial under the "12" with four Arab indicates. At the other end, around "6 hours", the seconds are shelled on the interior dial.The IWC Portuguese Regulator is limited, like new exclusiveness, with 500 specimens in a platinum edition. The versions out of pink gold and superfine steel are not limited. The three watches are provided with bracelets croc and clasps in same metal as the box. Tags: marine chronometers
