Breitling Watches At Heure Asch In Geneva

I am not going to go into detail on any of these watches. I simply wanted to discuss my impressions over all. Again, if you want more information these are the replica breitling Bentley GT Heart, Xtreme, and Cloissone. The Anniversary Heart is a gorgeous watch and a solid value around $6,000 (in steel) I believe. The watch comes in a few varieties, in gold or steel cases, and there are manually wound or automatic movement versions. At 42mm wide with a fluted side, the polished case is really well made, and a great size. Here, the dagger style hands in blued steel are just lovely, and the partially skeletonized dial not only retains legibility but shows off the decorated movement below. replica breitling Chronomat 41 does a solid job design movements in a unique manner, and they aren’t too bad in the decoration department either.

The breitling Bentley GT is a really cool looking watch. It has a fun, masculine design with a dive watch feel. There is also another model called the http://www.speedroc.com/replica-breitling-bentley-barnato.htmle. The names are silly, but the watches are cool. I first wrote about the Xtreme collection here. What is weird is that both models are water resistant to 100 meters only. Most people consider true dive watches to be at least 300 meters water resistant. Part of that might have to do with the ability for the alarm to sound. The Xtreme has a double caseback, meaning there is a hollow section between the two backs for sound to travel and reverberate. This collection also comes in a few styles, and have 44mm wide cases that are done in both steel and titanium (at the same time). I believe the Xtreme collection watches cost around $10,000.

Last is an example of Breitling’s more elegant enamel dial collection watches, called the Cloisonne (for the type of enamel application). This is the Tiger model, and features a hand-made enamel dial (which takes about 20 hours to make I believe). These watches have alarm movements and world time bezels. I believe that each has a 18k pink or white gold case (at least this Tiger model does), and come in 42mm wide cases. In this instances, the dial is first guilloche machine engraved (for the texture), and then the enamel painting is applied. I got to check out the dial with a loupe (magnifier), and enjoyed the detail and precision of the painting. Given the special enamel dials and the gold cases, these Cloisonne watches are likely rather expensive.

Thankfully L’Heure Asch has a wide selection of Breitling watches so I got to check a number of them. The watches are quite nice, well designed, and certainly unique having high quality with prices that aren’t too bad compared to some of their Swiss neighbors. If you need a mechanical alarm watch (or just like the idea of them), the Breitling movement is a good option – especially being exclusive to the brand.
