If you are in New York, you are likely suffering from seasonal confusion. This rain has got us down and what better way to lighten the mood than with a great selection of vintage watches! This week we have a wide selection of watches that range from the conservative to the funky, from Rolex to Piaget, and from dressy to casual. Don’t worry, no matter your taste, we got you.
You may not equate Rolex with dress watches (with the exception of the modern Rolex replica Cellini watches UK), but back in the day they made some nice watches for fancier affairs. Dating back to 1955, this beauty features a well-made yellow gold case with beautiful detailing. The case is further complimented by a warm honeycomb dial, something that we particularly love, especially in a dress watch like this one. Add central seconds and a manually-wound movement, and you’ve got a killer watch.

It’s not often you see vertical indexes, but that’s exactly what we have on this Vacheron Constantin dress fake watches. This reference 6394Q dates to the 1960s and features an 18k yellow gold case with screw-down caseback, but the coolest thing is the cross-hatch texture that covers the entirety of the case. The movement is the automatic K1072 with a non-offensive date display and center seconds hands. If you are looking for a dress watch with understated pizzaz, this is it.

Looking for underwater alarm Vulcain Cricket copy watches? We thought so. Here is the Vulcain Cricket Nautic S23211A, the first ever alarm watch that works underwater. This function is not only incredibly cool, but was also helpful in saving lives. It allowed divers to be easily alerted when their oxygen was running low while at depth. On top of this really important aspect, the watch looks great as well with a 42mm stainless steel case and black dial with decompression tables.
A true classic has a design that transcends time, while still maintaining an original aesthetic and appeal, as is the case with Swiss replica Harry Winston’s Midnight Collection. The new model features three arches, a tribute to the House’s heritage and New York flagship salon. It also has a date indicator and a moon display, offering precise information in the most sophisticated fashion.
The art of composition
Off-setting its date and complications, is an aesthetic decision embedded in Harry Winston’s design DNA. The Midnight Date Moonphase reinterprets the House’s signature elements and Cartier replica watches functions with excentered Hours and Minutes, date, and moonphase counters, so subtle that they appear to melt into the dial.

A supremely refined dial
The dial, silver in tone, features a sunburst finish that surrounds the Hours and Minutes function. The date is delicately housed in a light replica Omega watches and recessed zone to ensure that the numerals stand out.
Harry Winston revisits the moonphase with renewed intensity. Drawing inspiration from its real life counterpart, the moon disk features a deliberately rough and Rolex replica watches uk textured appearance. Furthermore, with its rich, deep, metallic blue coloring, Harry Winston designers expertly capture the magic of the moon.
This new Breitling replica watches creation is driven by a mechanical automatic movement, visible through the open case back. The exposed white gold oscillating weight features haute horlogerie finishes, including Côtes de Genève and circular graining. The silicon balance spring guarantees absolute precision, beating at 28,800 vibrations per hour. The Midnight Date Moonphase has a 42 mm-diameter case and is available in 18-carat white or rose gold.

A few years ago, TAG Heuer introduced a new version of its racing-inspired Carrera fake TAG Heuer watches with a brand-new movement. WatchTime took the watch, the TAG Heuer Carrera 1887, for a spin.
TAG Heuer celebrated the 50th birthday of its most important watch model, the TAG Heuer Carrera chronograph, in 2013. The watch is the brainchild of Jack W. Heuer, then managing director at Heuer (which became TAG Heuer after it changed hands in 1985), designed a simple dial and then used the tension ring that presses the Plexiglas against the case from the inside as a design element by printing on it the graduations for the chronograph. (Click here for our 2013 interview with Jack Heuer to learn more about the creation of the Carrera from the man himself.)
Thus, a classic fake Breitling watch with excellent legibility was born. Heuer, a fan of automobile racing, named the watch after the Carrera Panamericana, or “Pan Am,” Of the 1950s. The Pan Am was a challenging road race through Mexico over 3,000 kilometers of the newly finished Mexican section of the Pan American Highway. Porsche’s Carrera cars are also named for this race.
The Carrera watch was initially equipped with the manually wound Venus Caliber 72 but was later replaced by the now-famous Caliber 11, developed by Heuer in 1969, in collaboration with Breitling, Büren and Dubois Dépraz, as one of the first automatic chronograph movements. In the 1970s, the design of the Carrera underwent a series of changes until the quartz crisis caused the model to fall by the wayside.
Since its re-introduction in 1996, the Carrera has become TAG Heuer’s most successful model. The first Rolex replica watches were very similar to the original, but in 2004 their design was updated with a wide, black tachymeter track. In 2008, a new line extension, called Grand Carrera, was added.
The TAG Heuer Carrera 1887 is a return to a simpler form. Its designers omitted the tachymeter track and graduation markers on the dial and placed them instead, like its predecessor’s, on the inner flange. Otherwise, the hands, markers and understated ripple pattern on the chronograph counters recall the original. The silver rings for the minute and hour counters, first seen on the black-dialed 2002 model, have become a characteristic feature of the Carrera. One change: the date is now placed within the hour counter at 6 o’clock. The design is not as distinctive as one would like for a watch of this status; it probably won’t turn heads from far away. The small-seconds subdial at 9 o’clock has four cross-hair markers with the horizontal lines replaced by the words “Cal. 1887.”
The exclusive movement in the new TAG Heuer Carrera, Calibre 1887, has an interesting back-story. The brand obtained the rights to a complete and finished movement from Seiko and now produces it with a few minor technical changes and several design modifications. (TAG Heuer’s initial claim that it was a manufacture movement initially drew some criticism from Replica Breitling for Bentley watch industry insiders.) Caliber 1887 is based on Seiko’s Caliber 6S78, which debuted in 1998 and has been used mostly in the Japanese brand’s high-end Credor mechanical watches, available only in Japan.
When TAG Heuer set out to develop its own chronograph movement, it determined that this Seiko movement met many of its requirements: it is thinner than the Valjoux 7750, has a column wheel and most importantly, a rocking pinion. This type of chronograph clutch is an excellent fit for TAG Heuer, since it was company founder Edouard Heuer who invented and patented it in 1887 (hence, the caliber’s name).
TAG Heuer and Seiko came to an agreement that the Swiss brand would be permitted to use the movement design, which allowed TAG Heuer replica watches sale to save at least two years’ worth of development work, even though the movement still had to be reworked for mass production in order to meet the brand’s goal of making 50,000 pieces annually.
From a design point of view, TAG Heuer left most things unchanged, though it added a few new details, like an eccentric setting screw for adjusting the rocking pinion. The entire escapement, with its balance, hairspring, fine regulator and shock absorber, was replaced with components from the Swiss manufacturers Nivarox and Kif. Even the shapes of the mainplate, bridges and rotor were changed. TAG Heuer manufactures these parts in the town of Cornol at its subsidiary, Cortech. The company expanded its movement production capacity in 2012 and now also makes Caliber 1887 in a new facility in Chevenez in the Swiss Jura.
Milling machines from another company, Fleury, use a rather uncommon process to dry-machine brass parts like mainplates and bridges. The omission of oil as a coolant in the process means that the parts do not need to be cleaned between the various processing stages, thus saving time. Cortech uses a robot that places the 39 jewels in the mainplate and bridges. Final assembly takes place in a TAG Heuer facility in La Chaux-de-Fonds on a semi-automatic assembly line with both manual and fully automatic stations. Seiko is the only non-Swiss company among the 22 suppliers for the movement. Seiko also supplies stamped parts, which it makes sure meet the Swiss standards for the “Swiss made” designation.
