Golfer Bubba Watson, who is famed for being one of the longest hitters of a golf ball and who currently stands at number 15 in the golf world rankings was at the centre of attention this week while playing at the WGC Match Play Tournament. The focus of the attention however was not on his game, but on his wrist ! He was wearing a Richard Mille RM038 Tourbillon wristwatch which has been manufactured especially for the golfer and is constructed from a magnesium alloy made from aluminium, magnesium and zinc, it has a grade 5 titanium baseplate, 19 jewels and an ultralight movement. The Limited Edition Toubillion RM038 from Richard Mille is built specifically to be able to withstand the stress and strain of a pro golfer. Bubba Watson could only finish fourth in the event, but was well ahead of the competition in the bling stakes with the watch cashing in with a price tag of a whopping $525,000 US Dollars. Richard Mille is the eccentric watchmaker who is also responsible for manufacturing and designing the lightest watches in the world, one of which was worn by professional tennis player Raphael Nadal on last years professional tennis circuit.

JeanRichard Aquascope 300m diving watchJust like the recently presented JeanRichard 2TimeZones Zirconium limited edition wrist watch, the new JeanRichard Aquascope diving watch is delivered in a cushion-shaped case with a pair of crowns at 3 and 9 o’clock positions.However, since the new Aquascope lacks the GMT functionality, the crown at 9 o’clock serves completely different purpose and is used to lock its bidirectional rotating bezel in a fixed position. The main crown, as usual, operates the hour and minute hands as well as sets the correct date. Well, and, unfortunately enough, in this particular case the, err, case of the Aquascope is made not of zirconium and rubber but of plain stainless steel.JeanRichard Aquascope 300m diving watchThe diving instrument is powered by JeanRichard’s own JR1000 in-house automatic caliber. First presented about six years ago with the classy JeanRichard Paramount watch, the manufacture caliber is built on 27 jewels and its heart beats at a frequency of 28,800 vph for at least 48 hours after the watch is fully wounded. This does not seem like a great feat when compared to mainstream movements from ETA that are capable of running for at least 45 hours, but in fact is much more convenient since you can leave the watch in your desk drawer for whole two days without risking finding it breathless for a couple of hours.I mean, just imagine that you have just woke up barely dressed with a major hangover and a suspiciously looking bruises on your neck and you know that you have a wedding today, but the phone’s battery is dead and the watch doesn’t tick and you have absolutely no idea as to what time it is now. Sounds compelling, enough?The same movement was also used to power the last year’s Diverscope JR1000 model that was also rated for depth up to 300 meters.Like most diving watches, the JeanRichard Aquascope sports a pretty much standard dial layout and bezel decoration introduced many years ago by the industry’s behemoth Rolex with its Submariner and Oyster models. The only deviation from any given Seadweller’s layout is that the watch has the omnipresent triangle at 12 o’clock replaced with respective Arabic numeral. Also not very original, but, heck, in some cases, like safety reasons, there is nothing wrong with standardization if it helps saving lives.JeanRichard Aquascope 300m diving watch (detailed view)
