Both watches have the same orange GMT hand and orange font. The dial is protected by a scratch resistant sapphire crystal with the standard cyclops magnifying lens over the date at 3:00. It’s finally here. The timepiece we’ve all been waiting for since Baselworld 2011. The Rolex Explorer II Replica Watch has finally hit stores in the United States and it is as amazing as it looked behind the display case in Basel.

The next big update, and also the first visible difference, is the new orange GMT hand. Other than the size, this is probably the biggest “wow factor” in this new version. We have not tested this, but it does seem to last longer than the 16570’s green lume which glows much brighter at first.

The arrow on the 216570 is larger and the tip has a point which extends out to the minute markers, whereas the red hand on the 16570 was longer and smaller. Another reason why the new 24-hour hand is so appealing is that the entire hand is colored orange, but the older model only featured a red shaft with a black point. The orange color is an homage to the original Explorer II which was launched in 1971.

The updated Explorer II still has a fixed stainless steel bezel with 24 hour markers. The rehault has “RolexRolex” etched on the inside with a serial number at 6:00 and the Rolex crown logo at 12:00.

Unlike the newer Rolex Explorer Replica (116710) which was bumped up to a Triplock crown, the new Explorer II still keeps water and dust out with the protection of the Twinlock screw-down crown and carries a water resistance of 100m or 330ft.

The big change with this new version of the classic Rolex Replica offering is in the size. This time around, the Explorer II has been modernized with a slightly larger 904L stainless steel case. Now stretched out to a 42mm diameter (45mm including the crown), the 216570 rests comfortably on the wrist without weighing your arm down. The thickness or height of the case is 12mm. And although it has been beefed up to an XL, the design still maintains the traditional satin brushed lugs and polished sides. The new bracelet is a heavy duty stainless steel Oysterlock featuring the 5mm Easylink extension.

You could be forgiven for thinking Richard Mille’s world is a man’s one. Not so. Although the Richard Mille RM 07-01 Replica Watch is about as feminine and glamorous as Richard Mille gets. At first glance, it looks like a radical departure from his usual design notes.

And it’s the same but different. Not just because at 31 mm, it’s almost 20 mm narrower than many of the watches in the men’s collection. Look at the crown. It’s not a classic crown. It’s a new one. A stem crown patented by Richard Mille that is supposed to be nigh on impossible to dislodge. It doesn’t go right into the core of the automatic movement so there’s no risk of that being compromised.

Imagine what would happen if Richard Mille Replica Watch  decided to turn his hand to a ladies’ timepiece that could perform on the golf course and hold its own on a red carpet. Imagine no more; you’re looking at it. Professional golfer Diana Luna wears an RM007 Titanium on the green and is pictured with an RM 07-01 ATZ White Ceramic on the Richard Mille website.

The new Rolex Oyster Perpetual Cosmograph Daytona Replica Watch carries the Superlative Chronometer certification redefined by Rolex in 2015, which ensures singular performance on the wrist. The watch is available with black or white dial. Known simply as the “Daytona”, the watch has risen to the rank of an icon as one of the best known chronographs in the world.

The robust chronograph is engaged by a mechanism with a column wheel and vertical clutch, allowing an instantaneous and extremely precise start. The oscillator, the true heart of the watch, has a blue Parachrom hairspring patented and manufactured by Rolex in an exclusive alloy. Insensitive to magnetic fields, the Parachrom hairspring offers great stability in the face of temperature variations and remains up to 10 times more precise than a traditional hairspring in case of shocks. It features a Rolex overcoil, ensuring its regularity in any position. Calibre 4130 is equipped with a self-winding module featuring a Perpetual rotor and offers a power reserve of approximately 72 hours.

Created by Rolex in 1963, the Rolex Cosmograph Daytona Replica Watch  is a watch born to race. It has established an extraordinary track record in the world of motor sport thanks to its reliability and performance.

Its architecture, a composite of Rolex technology, was completely re-engineered: the number of components for the chronograph function was reduced significantly, thereby enhancing its reliability.

Today, we are reporting live from Baselworld 2016 with the biggest news many of you were dreaming of. Rolex is introducing a new version of its Rolex Replica Watch  in 904L steel, with a monobloc Cerachrom bezel, developed and patented by Rolex, in black ceramic. The black bezel is reminiscent of the 1965 model that was fitted with a black Plexiglas bezel insert.

swiss audemars piguet replica watches came in 1972, and a unique shape design breaks the traditional style of audemars piguet royal oak 41 replica, from the once avant-garde has thus become a classic today. The most iconic is decorated with eight hexagonal screws octagonal bezel, the watch became one can recognize the signs. In addition, it is the unique “TAPISSERIE” Check decorative dial. These two classic elements of both the classic Royal Oak watch is at its iconic style.

On the back of the new Richard Mille RM 68-01 Kongo Tourbillon Replica Watch   we see the central form of the tourbillon movement’s baseplate radiating outwards like a splash of paint physically thrown against a wall, while from the front the different movement bridges can be seen arcing in different directions like the wild brushstrokes found in street art murals.

Housed within a case comprising an NTPT Carbon caseband with TZP black ceramic bezels, the asymmetric case design Richard Mille Replica Watch tapers in two directions—in thickness from 9 to 3 o’clock and in height between 12 and 6 o’clock.

I really wanted to wear this opinion after seeing it since it would have perfectly looked the part in my wrist, driving the sunset-lit California coast’s HWY 101. “Regrettably,” the very best I could do was the Limited Edition Clifton Club Shelby Cobra 1964. Surprisingly, the larger watch felt better in my yummy wrists and the grip was quite comfy, which got me excited about the Burt Munro Tribute piece as it’d feel much more or less the same. Despite its slightly larger lug size, grip, and pushers, it was comparatively simple to slip beneath my riding gloves when gearing up, which makes me believe the Tribute bit could make it in the daily watch rotation. Again, I hear the chatter of watch enthusiasts… “a limited edition mechanical watch in the daily rotation?” Talking of limited editions, this whole weekend has been filled with vintage, rare, and custom motorcycles, that were constructed in home garages, custom paths, and collectors’ warehouses. One of the numerous names repeated over the duration of the event could be RSD, Roland Sands Designs. Roland Sands is motorcycling’s equal to George Bamford in the watch world, except more badass and winning an AMA national tournament. This bike construct would be something equal to carrying a Rolex 116610 Submariner Case and squeezing in the newer Calibre 3255, slapping a few DLC on the instance, screwing in an exhibition caseback, coating the hands in yellow gold, and yanking off the dial an Air-King, finished off by stringing it onto a hand stitched, custom perforated, humanely treated, organically tanned young calfskin strap.

Baume & Mercier introduces a new chronograph inspired by the legendary “Shelby Cobra Daytona Coupé”, probably the most iconic car in American motorsports. In celebration of its legacy, Peter Brock personally joined with Baume & Mercier’s Design Director Alexandre Peraldi to create a collection that sets a new standard in style and presence. The chronograph is limited to 196 pieces.

Bell & Ross Death & Star Pocket Watch – Darth Vader

Classic timepiece for an elderly villain, so Darth Vader gets a pocket watch. The watch has a Force detector, just in case your own abilities should fail. Design is inspired by the Death Star.

Hublot Big Bang Bounty Hunter – Boba Fett

A bold digital daily beater for the bounty hunter in need of keeping deadlines. Boba Fett would approve. The symbols in the center and the upper left corner are from Boba Fett’s armor: a Mandalorian crest and skull.

Though probably best known for its more affordable, instrument-inspired pilot and subject watches, French watchmaker Bell & Ross Knock Off Watches Replica continues to claim itself as much more than a one-trick pony, using the latest addition to its BR-X “Experimental” collection: the wild Bell & Ross BR-X1 Skeleton Tourbillon Sapphire.Standouts in this occasionally divisive collection have included the stealthy forged carbon BR-X1 (hands-on) and also the more exotic Bell & Ross BR X2 Tourbillon Micro-Rotor Automatic watch (hands). With its micro-rotor and ampersand-adorned flying tourbillon, the BR X2 was a step nearer to this latest creation not least since it was something of a sapphire sandwich. The newest Bell & Ross BR-X1 Skeleton Tourbillon Sapphire resembles a functional hybrid of both — but with a twist, since it uses the BR-X1 case assembled from five, quite carefully carved sapphire blocks.The Bell & Ross BR-X1 Skeleton Tourbillon Sapphire is a whole hell of a long way to get a brand whose humble beginnings started with instrument watches (recall B&R’s watches used to be fabricated by German tool watch master Sinn), but a journey that has gotten considerably more impressive as the Experimental line continues to find interesting ways to visually and technologically push the envelope. Sapphire crystal is more or less scratch-proof, but its hardness has made it especially hard to work with in anything other than very simple contours. Technology and techniques have improved in recent years, nevertheless, with much more completely sapphire-cased watches, and even costs for them starting to come down like using the Hublot Big Bang UNICO Sapphire (hands-on) – however they tend to stay more infrequent and expensive even than precious metal instance watches.

Ulysse Nardin Hourstriker ‘Horse’ Replica Watch has already got its monkeys in a row for Chinese New Year, so now, for Baselworld 2016, the Swiss brand has started to turn its attention to horses by crafting a collection of 28 pieces in 18ct rose gold or platinum.

The 42mm round case is artistic as it is functional.Both horse figurines feature deeply chiseled muscles, pronounced facial features, and long and voluminous mane and tail. The self-winding movement has a power reserve of approximately 42 hours and is water resistant to splash proof 30 meters.

Postured between ten and 12 o’clock, and one and three o’clock, the horse Jaquemarts portray two stances.Every time the hammer hits the gong, the horse Jaquemarts perform in concert. In one, the horse is showing fear, “rearing up” to fight or flee. In the other, it is racing with purpose – either toward or away from something, and the interpretation is left to the wearer.

A sonnerie en passant with a rare automatic movement, the Ulysse Nardin Replica Watch  plays on hour and half hours on demand or can be set to “gong” the time in passing.In this sound-motion coupling, Jaquemarts move in synchronicity with each strike of a gong.

Now, if the V2-92 and V2-94 Garde-Côtes editions look eerily similar to the recent vintage-inspired V1-92 & V2-94 Bellytanker capsule watches that’s OK – Bell & Ross meant to do that. The ‘Vintage’ (delineated by the ‘V’ here) collection has a consistent design intent and aesthetic, which has proven to be quite popular for the French brand, so naturally we were bound to see a few more color treatments to the original three monochromatic options introduced earlier this year.

Each measuring a more traditional 41mm, both the V2-92 and the V2-94 come in much smaller than Bell & Ross’ square-shaped 46mm BR 01, whose instrument panel inspiration has become a signature of the brand. And thanks to the one-two punch of a slim profile and a trendy, vintage-inspired aesthetic, the conservative silhouette works especially well on a wide variety of wrists too – something that should really appeal to anyone looking for an inoffensive, yet sporty alternative to the comparable, yet equally excellent Diver 65 from Oris.

At the asking price for Bell & Ross though, you do start to see subtle embellishments typical with watches of this price point: stuff like beveled hands, a sloping date window cutout, and snailed and recessed sub-dials on the chronograph. You also get a very generously domed sapphire crystal, and an exhibition caseback which bears a somewhat non-specific Coast Guard motif that also slightly obscures a clear look at the finishing on the movement within. For the V2-92 3-hand option, you’re looking at an automatic BR-Cal. 302, which is essentially a modified Sellita SW300-1, and on the V2-94 chronograph, the movement is Bell & Ross’ Cal. 301 – a modified ETA-2894-2.

Both Garde-Côtes variants are available on either a traditional brushed 3-link bracelet, or a smooth, tonal grey rubber strap that matches the grey dials. Neither are the most exciting option – especially considering how this sporty aesthetic could really come to life on the wrist once complemented with a little more color, like an orange NATO or black waterproof leather with contrast stitching. Furthermore, the flat, textureless grey straps seem to call undue attention to the 22mm lugs – a slightly unflattering width for a case whose vintage-inspired lines would probably be best served with 20mm lugs.

However, the Garde-Côtes options really look the part on what Bell & Ross calls its “woven rubber strap,” which has a subtle textured embossing designed to emulate the woven ‘tropic’ straps found on many sports watches in the seventies. The end result feels a little more classic and capable, and is a better overall fit for the watch. If rubber’s not quite your speed though, the vintage collection also shines on leather straps, as we saw in the recent equally excellent Bellytanker capsule.

Bell & Ross has frequently looked to the area of aviation and motorsports for its layout inspiration of their watches — for instance, a great deal of the dial layouts and design elements of Bell & Ross watches are all predicated on flight tool panels. The Bell & Ross Vintage Bellytanker series goes for a more relaxing and traditional style and color scheme than some more aggressive Bell & Ross designs.The title Bellytanker and the associated racecar actually have roots in the world of aviation. The idea behind these would be to enable the flights to possess an extended range, but once empty, could be dropped mid-flight and help save weight and improve remaining fuel market. As a section of an aircraft, the Bellytankers were, by necessity, quite aerodynamic and this also made their design applicable for racecars, especially, for the kind of automobile designed to go very fast in a straight line in a place like the Bonneville salt flats. As a additional tribute to these cars and that era, Bell & Ross also designed a concept car — a contemporary interpretation of the Bellytanker.

Unlike the Bellytanker variants though, is how the Garde-Côtes take on a much more assertive, and sporty modern character, simply by taking a dip in a fresh coat of paint to shed the faux-vintage aesthetic. Most notably different, is the new bright orange chapter ring and matching second hand accents which nicely contrast the matte grey dials – livery inspired by the aircraft deployed by the French National Coast Guard. The dials themselves revert to the painted, luminous numerals of the original Vintage collection, rather than the applied metal indices found on the Bellytanker watches.

The chronograph gets one additional detail exclusive to the Garde-Côtes, not found on the other Vintage-series watches: a pulsometer in the aluminum bezel insert for measuring a patient’s heart rate, instead of the more commonly found tachymeter scale. Now, how practical this would be in a crisis situation is probably open for debate. But it’s a neat thematic touch, because let’s be honest – we weren’t all cut out to be rescue swimmers (in fact, most of us weren’t – the program is proud of its notoriously high attrition rate, which rivals that of the Navy SEALs).

The Bell & Ross Garde-Côtes collection prices start at $2,900 for the 3-handed BR V2-92 on the rubber strap, and jumps to $4,300 for the bi-compax chronograph variant. bellross.com
