The New Watch Collector

Tudor Black Bay Heritage

Let’s say your child just graduated and you want to commemorate the achievement with a watch. It can be complicated to find something that fits in their stage of life, but also something that they will keep for years to come. Our pick is the Tudor Black Bay. The Black Bay Heritage is a great start to any collection. Tudor re-entered the US market less than a decade ago, and immediately made some big waves. One of which is the Black Bay. Now there are plenty of options, with varying sizes, designs and materials in the Black Bay Heritage line. One of our favorites, and a perfect first for a luxury watch is the Black Bay Black, and specifically the first iteration with the ETA movement. This is a great first watch because the cost isn’t outrageous, and the ETA movement is going to be more cost effective to maintain in years to come. And since it’s no longer in production it’s just that much more unique. The Rose Dial with the “Self-Winding” text gives the watch a nice vintage vibe with a clean look, and the Black Bay Heritage comes in at 41 millimeters which is a great contemporary size.

The Classic

IWC Pilot's Watch on wrist

For the person who, at any given moment, looks like they could be from any decade. They exude style, and it just seems effortless. Their watch has to be an extension of their style, and that’s why we think the IWC Pilot’s Watch is a no-brainer. IWC has been making Pilot watches for decades, and their styling has pretty much remained unchanged, and that’s just the beauty of a classic. The clean case design, Arabic numeral dial, the triangle with two dots at 12 o’clock, and the stark legible hands were characteristics of the IWC watches from World War II, and they’re still present on this Mark XVI here. The 39-millimeter case is sporty enough for any outfit and paired with the alligator strap the watch looks great under a suit jacket as well. This watch will never go out of style.

The Adventurer

Breitling Aerospace

Do adventure and thrill define your recipient? If yes, then they need a watch that can keep up with each and every new experience. The Breitling Aerospace is just the companion for any adventure. This watch can be easily overlooked because of its non-traditional mix of analog and digital and a use of a quartz movement, but the Aerospace can take whatever adventure you can throw at it and more. It has a 42-millimeter titanium case for added durability, and features like a chronograph, a perpetual calendar, a GMT complication, and an alarm, to name a few. And I have talked to more pilots that actually wear this watch than any other watch, and one pilot, in particular, told me this was the watch he was wearing during a high-speed ejection. I promise, if you are looking for the perfect watch for the thrill-seeker look no further than the Breitling Aerospace.

The Businessman

Vacheron Patrimony Traditionnelle World

This watch is for someone who just made partner, landed a big account, or achieved a long-awaited career milestone. We think it’s important to celebrate the moments big and small, and this Vacheron does just that. The Vacheron Patrimony Traditionnelle World. There are GMT watches, there are world timers, and then there’s this Vacheron Patrimony. This is the first watch of its kind because it displays all time zones. Now most people would think there are only 24 time zones because you think in one-hour increments, but actually, at the time of publishing this, there are 38 separate time zones. That’s because some time zones are broken down into the half hour and even the quarter hour increment. Now the Patrimony Traditionnelle World represents 37 separate time zones, and it’s worth mentioning when this watch was released in 2015 there were only 37 not the 38 of today. So, on top of being able to track 37 time zones this Vacheron has a really novel feature. There is a thin tinted piece of sapphire that creates night on the globe. Seeing this transition from 3 p.m. to 10 p.m. you can see how New York is now in the dark. This takes a rather busy watch and makes the information that much easier to read. And an all housed in a 42 millimeter rose gold case, this watch will definitely make a statement.

The Person Who Has Everything

Patek Philippe Nautilus

This can be such a tough person to give a gift to, so we decided to use exclusivity as a driving motivation for our choice. Patek Philippe is a great place to start looking, and specifically at the venerable Nautilus. The Patek Philippe Nautilus 5711. Now this is a watch with a price tag about as large as its wait list. It’s quirky 70s design has stood the test of time and the Nautilus has become the pinnacle of the stainless-steel sports watch. And for the person that has everything what better gift than a watch that’s almost impossible to get. This particular one with the blue, black gradient dial feels as though you’re staring into the depths of the ocean. And nothing feels more like you’re staring out the porthole have Captain Nemo’s namesake submarine than this watch.

By no means is this list exhaustive, but hopefully it’s provided that spark for picking out the right watch

Rolex watch feature



 A Rolex watch is a wise investment. It’s an incredibly well made piece of machinery that will last you a lifetime, and it will retain or even gain value as the years go on. The intricate design of a Rolex watch means that they have many unique features, which are useful to know if you are thinking of purchasing one.

 

The Manufacturing Process

A Rolex watch takes about a year to make, with nearly everything created in-house at one of the company’s 4 state-of-the-art manufacture locations in Switzerland. Each component of a single watch goes through a rigorous testing process to make sure they do not leave factory unless they are perfect.
 
The Movement

Each Rolex movement is made up of hundreds of carefully manufactured components, coming together to form something which guarantees long-term high performance. After undergoing an intricate “exacting” process, the Rolex movement becomes a certified Swiss chronometer. 
 
The Date Magnification

All Rolex Watches with a date function, apart from the Seadweller models, feature a bubble magnification, called the Cyclops. Positioned over the date display of the watch, the Cyclops magnifies the aperture at a magnification of 2.5 times. You won’t find this particular magnification on any other watch; most Rolex imitations with only magnify 1.5 times.
 
The Stainless Steel

You may or may not know that stainless steel comes in various grades and types. Most watches are made from a type called 316L, but Rolex uses 904L – a type of steel that, as far as we know, no one else uses.
 
The Oyster Case

Rolex’s unique watch case, the Oyster case, boasts excellence in both form and function, and promises to be robust and waterproof whether constructed in steel, gold or platinum. The Oyster case was invented in 1926 and was the world’s first waterproof case for a wristwatch.
 
The Watch Case Back

The back of a Rolex watch case is smooth, rather than engraved with designs or logos, although the inside is engraved with a model number. The only exceptions for this are the Rolex Sea Dweller, Milgauss case backs, and any Rolex ladies watches produced before 1990.
 
The Triplock Crown Seal
 
Some of the Rolex sports watches including the Sea-Dweller, Submariner and Daytona watches feature something called the Triplock winding crown seal. This is an extra seal in the threads of the winding crown’s tube, and can be viewed when the winding crown is unscrewed. 
 
We hope this has led you to discover something new about the unique features of a Rolex watch. If you’d like to find out more about what makes Rolex watches so special, chat to the experts at Cuttings!

Important features that a watch should have


 Wristwatches today are more than just a reminder of time, they are one of the most important icons in the fashion world, which play a very important role in attracting people to their style and showing their taste. This article will help you to choose a quality and at the same time very stylish watch.


    Select a watch based on the material of the screen


The case of the watch is usually made of three options: glass, plastic and crystal, each of which has its advantages and disadvantages:

Plastic:  that it has more resistance and may fall later.

Glass: The glass material for the watch is of good quality; But its biggest problem is that it breaks when hit hard.

Crystal: The best choice for the outer cover material of the watch that does not remove scratches and does not break easily; But the price is high.


    Made in which country?


You probably know that the best watches are made by reputable Swiss companies that have been producing watches for many years. These brands have so many quality watches that they are also used for sports competitions; But other countries, such as France, have also been successful in producing accessories, especially watches. Swiss Swatch watches are one of those brands whose high quality and reasonable price have made it an ideal choice for all kinds of girls', men's and women's watches, and the Cartier brand is also one of the best French brands.

Clock frame and strap

The watch strap is usually made of metal (such as gold, zinc, steel, silver, titanium, aluminum, etc.); Or it is ceramic, leather, fabric and even wood. The watch frame is the part that surrounds the screen and attaches to the strap. This part is also usually metal. The best metal for the watch, which is reasonably priced and anti-corrosion, is steel, and the most expensive metal is gold, which is usually given to couples as a wedding watch. After that, silver is highly valued and titanium has good strength.


    People usually go for steel or use leather to choose a watch strap. It is not possible to say which of the two sexes is better; But the important thing that may help you make a better choice is that the leather strap usually loses its shape sooner and wears out in some parts; Especially if the leather is not genuine and is used continuously.

    If you are allergic to metals, make sure that it is anti-allergic before buying a watch with a metal strap; Sometimes some watches are anti-allergic, contrary to what is written on them; Cause allergies; So be sure to buy from reputable stores with original goods. If you make a leather watch, make sure your hands are not sensitive to the back of the watch face and the buckles.


    Is digital better or analog?


Watches depending on whether they are clockwise or not; They are divided into two categories: digital and analog; Some may be a combination of digital and analog. The fact is that many reputable brands are designing luxury digital watches; But still, analog watches are more formal than digital watches. So when it comes to choosing the best middle ground; It is better to choose according to your needs and if you need to shine at formal parties, be sure to get help from analog watches; Because having a regular cartier at a wedding is far more formal than getting the latest Apple Watch.


    Pay attention to the size of the watch


The best watch for you is the option that you like and that comes to you. Pay attention to the width of the strap and the size of the screen to make sure your watch fits. If your wrists are narrow and you have thin arms, it is better not to go for very wide straps and very large plates; Unless you want to create a different style for yourself with this choice. Delicate straps and small pages are an ideal choice for you. Unlike those with wide wrists; These people should not go for watches with thin straps and small screens as much as possible.


Remember, if you are going to give a watch as a gift, pay attention to the age of the other party. Small screens and small hands are often not good options for the elderly; Because they put pressure on their eyes.


    Square or circle; Is this the problem?


It is interesting to know that the form of the clock face is also related to its recognition. Clocks with sharp, angled corners, such as square clocks, are usually more formal and have more intimate circular plates that may reduce their formality. Some also believe that a metal watch is more formal than a watch with a leather strap. Therefore, search for the brand you are looking for with the desired design with sufficient recognition. Tissot, for example, is one of the best watch brands that allows you to buy from a variety of women's watch models. Leather and metal straps can also be found among their models, which will make your purchase easier.

Pay attention to the jewels


The best watches are made of the finest jewels; Therefore, the gem material used around the frame or inside the plate is important. If you want to give the best as a gift or make it for yourself, you can go for a watch with diamonds, or if you want to spend less, you can go for the famous Swarovski crystals, which shine no less than jewelry.
