Launched in 1917, initially, replica Rado was created as a watch movement’s manufacturer, however, the brand gradually evolved into a genuine watch-making brand in 1957, when it introduced the very first watch collection, released under the Rado trademark.

Through the years, the brand excelled through continually innovating shapes and textures, through upgrading materials and introducing new horological concepts, highly appreciated by the watch-collectors worldwide. It will surely not be a surprise, for a true watch connoisseur, to hear that Rado is the very first watch-making brand in the world to produce a scratch-resistant wristwatch, and the brand that created the widely used sapphire crystal.

Nevertheless, the brand is also known for pushing forward the known limits of horological innovation, and for creating superb horological masterpieces, which combine mechanical sophistication and powerful contemporary aesthetics such as the brand’s new Rado Ceramica Jubile Diamond Paved Watches we are going to present to you in the following article- the Rado Ceramica Jubile 161.0838.3.030 and 161.0718.3.070.

Comprising a couple variations, the new replica Rado Ceramica Jubile watch line is defined by sleek stylish lines and, minimalist luxury; it features classy timepieces crafted from high-tech ceramics and embellished with the seductive glow of precious stones, such as black or white diamonds, and orange or yellow sapphires.

The timepieces feature a square, black or platinum-hued, ceramic case, with a nice satin-polished finish, which incorporate a matching ceramic bracelet, manufactured from the same material. Furthermore, the cases are available in a XL-size, in order to also match a gentleman’s wrist, as well as the delicate wrist of a lady.

As far as the dials are concerned, the amazing Rado Ceramica Jubile Watch Line features two variations entirely paved with diamonds – the superb Rado Ceramica Jubile 161.0838.3.030 watch, paved with 414 white diamonds, which gently glow against the Etobuywatch High Quality Luxury Replica watch platinum-colored ceramic case, and the beautiful Rado Ceramica Jubile 161.0718.3.070 watch performed in black ceramic and paved with 414 black diamonds. These two models display central hours and minutes functions and a small round date aperture located at 6 o’clock position.

Furthermore, just as all the models of the collection, the new Rado Ceramica Jubile Diamond Paved Watches are animated by high quality Swiss made replica Quartz movements, which confer immaculate timekeeping accuracy and reliability.

It is worth mentioning that the Rado Ceramica Jubile watch line also features chronograph models adorned with diamonds, and orange and yellow sapphires as well as a more simple variation adorned with just 4 diamonds, and the price will surely vary depending on the number of precious stones starting around $1,000.00 up to $22,500.00.

Upright from Lanco

ast Post showed my Bulova Golden Clipper and this time features my latest Lanco 1970 vertical Day-Date model from the Langendorf Watch Co. of Switzerland.

Lanco – Swiss vertical read Day/Date with quick set calendar

Note the cherry red dial background with white/chrome batons and a clear and contrasting Day/Date window indication @6, chromed hour and minute hands with a center sweep seconds hand. There are luminous dot markers and infill to the main hands, but no longer active today. The surprisingly large and heavy solid Stainless Steel case is not perhaps the finest machining you'll see, but the top surface is satin finished and the curved case sides are at least chamfered (the lower edges towards the integral solid steel bracelet are sharp edged).

Large 107gms Stainless Steel case with integral bracelet. Lanco New old Stock

As said this case is large for the period at 42 mm x 36 mm x 12 mm and with the original integral stainless bracelet, which because of it's fitting stands out a little proud from the case means the top to bottom dimension is more around 52 mm, so for the smaller wrist please note.

Marked Anton Schild (AS) 2066 automatic with 46 hrs power reserve.

Complete with the excellent and clearly marked AS 2066 (Anton Schild) 25 jewel mechanical Automatic movement which features a Crown quick set calendar for both Day and Date and a 46 hr power reserve, so no slouch in the quality stakes.

Wears quite big on the wrist, this Lanco, but looks great!

I also note the bracelet comes with a removable 20 mm extension to the deployment feature, of a style I've not seen before and simply fitted with a small spring bar.
So two vertical Day/Date features 1970's brands and yet so different as models. The Bulova from my last Post is a more refined watch overall with rounded elegant case fitting in comparison, though both look great on the wrist and of course both are starring in my new “odd features” box with the unusual vertical read Day and Date feature window @6, a style that can also be found in limited numbers from Rado, Hamilton, Enicar, Jules Jurgenson and even West End Watch Co.
As styles go this is a relatively rare find these days, especially in such good condition. With different Brands it's also fascinating to see which movements are used, especially with the use of vertical set Day/Date wheels. Quite a number used quality AS movements and a nice compliment to what were often radically different 1970's watch designs, and such a step change from the more traditional styles of the 1950/60's.
In the case of this particular Lanco Brand, the Langendorf Company who started in 1880 and known at one time as the largest clock manufactury in the world, progressing, if that's the right word to the abbreviated Lanco company name from 1960, which in 1970/1 merged with the Omega/Tissot Group as a quality equal, though that said watch production under the Lanco brand finally ended just a few years later in 1973. So as an example of a Brand that won't see the light of day again, perhaps ghosting through Omega/Tissot models today, may be one thing, but to have a Langendorf original does give me a little thrill.
The collecting game – could this be a new phase?
Isn't it funny how your collection ideas can alter over the years. There was that time when you thought that Swatch was the thing, then all the variants of Timex or Casio then the true vintage models of 1920 – 1949, then the rectangular models, Day and Date models, Radio Controlled ones and so on and on . . . basically morphing as it goes along.
And in my own case my stuff has always been a bit eclectic (even eccentric, some would say) and I tend to buy and collect mostly what I like, with little regard whether a “collectors” item or not – I basically don't care about that aspect of watch collecting. Though I have to say that as my “proper” vintage watches go I have to admit over recent years refining these to more “collectible” ones, that I like, that is . . .
Needless to say this has begun to match other collectors ideas of what collectibles are all about, though I hasten to add, quite a few of the so called favorites are not represented (Rolex for example) – simply as I don't like them very much, so why would I buy one. Odd that may be, but does show I've not completely joined the ranks of convention – well not quite yet.
However, recently I've shifted towards more retro and in particular the wonderful 1970's period. In this new collection my preference is for automatic mechanical models and often models that have a theme, such as dial shape or odd features. You have to remember that the 1970s was a pretty amazing time and one that I lived through – and I mean lived . . . so has a personal and evocative nostalgia.
I suppose much of my love of the 70's kick started just a few months before – in Bethel, New York on the 15 ^th to the 18 ^th August 1969 when I was long haired (oldish) hippy style with harmonica and guitar – and gone in the cloud (yes we had them in those days) with that fantastic experience – Woodstock! If you don't know what that was, then look it up. But you had to be there – oh yeah – man . . .
So in that crazy free and forward looking time, when lots of serious grown up problems were on us – not that we understood them anyway, because we had a Microwave! and crazy piled up hair (and this is the men) Peace man and Ban the Bomb, the end of the Vietnam War and the discovery of “Black holes” and the new wave riot of color – everywhere, and Discos and bean bags, space hoppers, and all in the face of rampant 30% inflation, Star Wars and even the Hostess trolley (came with that Microwave!) and all that – what also appeared was a wave of new style avant-garde watches, where the Swiss plus some others burst on to the scene with wonderful new designs and shapes in amazing styles – indeed creations of form that vibrantly portrayed the people freedom of the 1970's perfectly.
Squares, triangles, ovals, geometrics and goodness knows what, automatics, manual winds, Tuning Forks movements, new “jump” ideas and fantastic dial configurations, shapes, colors and so on – as I say a fascinating period.
So it's this era that's got me not only interested (the phrase “light my fire” comes to mind) but actually excited once again and the great thing about 1968 – 1979 is that these great gone for ever models are still affordable. In twenty years these could be the true vintage models and my present vintage collection will be antique, or certainly more specialist perhaps and maybe, just maybe, dare I say – rather dull . . . .
So this year it looks like I'm into the 70's and already off to a flying start, such is the excitement of my collecting once again. In fact quite a few of my eclectic “modern” and vintage models might have to go to make room for my new ideas collection. bekijk meer replica Zwitserse en patek philippe gondolo

Parmigiani Fleurier Bugatti High-End Watch - Type 370 Mythe

Cars and fine watches tend to be suitable to each other! Moreover, both objects are highly collectible pieces. Their similar elements are really significant. For example, why did the Parmigiani Fleurier luxury watch brand create the Bugatti collection? Course, they did it to satisfy the collectors of beautiful things, both in the field of exclusive cars and in the sphere of Haute Horlogerie. Thereby to please their fans and to honor the 10th anniversary of the collaboration, two well-known brands, Parmigiani and Bugatti , have presented three new models of high-end watches.

Parmigiani Fleurier is a brand, which has an impressive collection of luxury watches. This manufactory is able to create both simple (at first glance) timepieces with three hands (such as the Tonda 1950 model), and very complicated watches like the Toric Resonnance model with the snake-shaped gongs, as well as the ultra complex Tecnica Ombre Blanche model. The brand is also known for its partnership with Bugatti. This cooperation has already given the world a few unique items, for example, the Parmigiani Fleurier Bugatti Super Sport watch. Companies haven't stopped there, on the contrary, they have presented three new editions. Let's look at one of them - the Parmigiani Fleurier Bugatti Type 370 Mythe model, which has been designed to commemorate this successful teamwork.

Despite the fact that this new high-end watch has kept the base of the previously released Type 370 model, it is designed with the use of new materials, equipped with a new dial, and has a special finishing of the case. Its design is easily recognizable thanks to the drum-shaped case and vertical dial, which allows to find out the time while driving. This feature is also used in the Bugatti Super Sport series, but their designs differ. While the previous model, was equipped with a case made of 18 karat white gold, the new Type 370 Mythe model is equipped with a two-tone case made of polished 18 karat pink gold and contrasting gray surfaces that give a more technical, but refined appearance. The dial is inspired by the design of the legendary Bugatti Type 57 - namely, its front grill. The gold plate with an engraving gives the watch a rich look in the art deco style that perfectly fits the original shape of the case.

What remains the same is an impressive in-house manual winding movement with all its elements mounted vertically thus creating an association with the engine. This movement has a 10-day power reserve that is indicated by a rotating drum seen through the top of the watch. It provides hour and minute functions. You may notice that there are no buttons and crown. The setting and the winding are made with a help of a special tool located on the case back of this high-end watch. Not surprising that the Parmigiani Fleurier Bugatti Type 370 Mythe luxury watch will be available within a limited edition. The price is only available on request.

An unexpected spark that starts a fire

For many years I had not really given much thought to the watch on my wrist, it had been the same one for some time and my only real consideration had been how accurate it was.   The watch in question was radio-controlled and I would enjoy knowing that it was always precise in its time keeping and if it did drift it would be corrected, automatically.   The perfect functional timepiece.     So there it sat on my wrist day to day, always working, fulfilling its function whilst I did not give it a second thought.    

But one day something occurred which made me actually sit down and start thinking about watches again.

I had enjoyed wearing different watches in my youth, I would not say collecting as they were treated so poorly I am not sure I ever considered them something to collect or cherish. Indeed my older self looks back and grimaces at how badly they were abused.   Thankfully the watches were mainly fashion watches, Bench, Storm, Fossil and the like (Bar one Rotary watch given to me by my grandmother, my first real watch, which is currently awaiting repair having been left languishing in my family home).

So what made me start thinking about watches and watch collecting,   well I was approaching my 35th birthday and out of the blue my girlfriend asked me if I would like a watch as a present.   I immediately said yes but I was struck by the fact that I had no idea what kind of watch I would like or which watch brands were a good choice.   The watch choices I had made when I was younger were not the same as what I would choose now and my adult choices had just been watches that were accurate but for which no real aesthetic choices were made. If this was to be a present I thought I best put some real thought into this.

Within these thoughts, the research and the considerable shop trawling on a wet and cold Saturday (with a   somewhat flu filled girlfriend in tow, sorry Scarlet!) the flicker of something began inside me.   I had seen so many watches of such varying style, cost and features but I was left feeling that one would not be enough.

In the end I chose the watch in the picture at the start of this blog entry: a Citizen Eco-Drive Endeavor, I could not be happier with it and it puts a smile on my face every time I wear it.   But even as my girlfriend was paying for the watch there was something in the back of my mind that knew this was not going to be the last watch I would own this year.

So the watch that started a fire in my heart – I think it could have been any watch – but it just happened to be this one. Everyone needs a hobby or a collection, mine was unexpected but it has gripped me right to my core.   In the few short months since I placed that watch on my wrist I have purchased four more to sit alongside it.

And from there came this blog. At various points during my life I have wanted to sit and write about a subject that I have a keen interest in and something that makes me happy.   I have worked in IT most of my life but never really felt the urge to write about that, I talk about it enough, maybe I just can't convey it to paper.   However this foray in horology through watch collecting has given me the inspiration that I have lacked.   So somewhat clumsily (I am not a trained writer by any means) I plan to write about my adventures in watch collecting.   I hope I manage to bring some of you along with me and I hope this novice's perspective will be an interesting one.
