You are searching at the one-of-a-kind Meteoris from fake watch maker Louis Moinet. Meteoris is a set of four watches and this artfully fabricated automated planetarium. The set is for the austere abstruse and archival connoisseur. Clearly actual expensive, the set has some absorbing appearance that are account alive about. Searching at the planetarium it is bright that the table like anatomy is on a basement with an adorned automated planetarium on it amidst by four pillow sections for the watches. Actually, Given the complication of the planetarium, I ambition that Louis Moinet would accept put added accomplishment into giving the watches added adapted housings. You accept four section altered Corum watches that are anniversary beautifully fabricated tourbillons that are just sitting there on a pillow. At atomic accord them a dust cover.The planetarium weighs about 100 kilos and is 150mm tall, and about 91cm in diameter. The table and mechanics area done by the artisan R��my Chauvin. Like all acceptable adamant watch makers, Louis Moinet refuses to let go of Pluto as a planet in the solar system, so it is appropriate there forth with the blow of the planets as able-bodied as the Sun. The accoutrement appearance the Sun in the centermost with anniversary of the planets affective about it in absolute time. The planets and Sun area fabricated by artisan Jean-Yves Kerv��van.

There is a calibration for the zodiac that appearance was aeon we are in.Each of the constellations of the zodiac is covered in gold dust and top Wesselton VVS precious stones (154 of them accretion 5.6 carats). The planetarium mechanics are a bit of a abstruseness to me appropriate now. I apperceive they are all able-bodied made, but I am not abiding if the accessory is electrically powered, or somehow manually wound. It is a appealing accurate account to accept in one's abstraction or foyer, but I would cartel not abode the Meteoris with the watches in a abode area humans can snag one of them easily. The Meteoris aswell has a bottom about-face that can be actuate to appearance you the circling of the plants sped up, as artlessly watches them move in absolute time would be actual slow.While the planetarium allotment of the Meteoris is almost impressive, the watches are added my thing. Maybe I would be added into the planetarium if it didn't attending like places for the watches were an afterthought. The set comes with four section altered watches that are anniversary slight altered versions of the Louis Moinet Vertalis Tourbillon watch. The case and all-embracing architecture is agitated over, but anniversary watch actuality is a bit different. The pudding is all in the dials.

The movements aswell accept a partially skeletonized capital bounce butt that shows the durability of the capital bounce as a anatomy of ability assets indicator (total of about 72 hours). The Mars watch added has 3.46 carats of 56 baguette cut precious stones on the case bezel and lugs. The punch about the openings is fabricated from a meteorite alleged "Jiddat al Haraiss 479" that was begin in Oman and accurate as basic from Mars by the Russian Academy of Sciences in Moscow.Next on the solar arrangement account actuality is the Louis Moinet Meteoris Rosetta Bedrock watch. What does this mean? Able-bodied the rose gold watch has a punch that is fabricated from the oldest meteorite begin on Earth.

Actuality the angel shows a little meteorite said to be falling to Earth. The bedrock is absolutely admirable as the punch and is cut from Itqiy (the name of the meteorite). It was said to be formed abreast the Sun, and was accurate by (my alma mater) the University of Arizona in Tucson.Fourth and final for the Meteoris watches is the Louis Moinet Meteoris Tourbillon Moon watch.

TweetEmailThere are certain high-end Swiss watches that I've always admired for their style and function, among them is the Ulysse Nardin GMT �� Perpetual. It's a travel watch in the tradition of the Rolex GMT Master, but with a neat twist: It has two buttons that increment or decrement the local time. When you travel, simply press the buttons as required to jump to your destination time zone! Simple to use, hard to make and very functional. However, being a Swiss chronometer of in-house design, the Ulysse Nardin is out of my price range. Imagine my surprise and delight, then, at discovering that well-regarded Swiss brand Oris now has a similar watch, the Oris Atelier Worldtimer.There are two versions, with and without bracelet. The picture shows the version I prefer, on an leather strap. Features of the watch includeSapphire crystals front and back, with interior anti-glare coating and doming on the front for easier visibility.Movement based on the ETA 2836, a well-known movement with good serviceability and excellent reputation. Oris modified the 2836 to add the plus/minus buttons, and added a second timezone display at 3 o'clock on the dial.Automatic movement, 38 hour power reserve.The dial is silver and grey, decorated with guilloche or machine turning.Date display at 6 o'clockPerfectly sized at 42.5mmThe hands and indices are lumed with Superliminova, so it should be readable at night as well.Water resistant to 30m or 98ft, but I'd be hesitant to get a watch like this damp. This is not a sport watch!MSRP of the Worldtimer is $2525, or $2625 on the bracelet, which is downright cheap for what it is. I hope to get one of these for review very soon.By Paul Hubbard
