<p>Perfectly encapsulating its tagline, “the future of Swiss watchmaking,” the pioneering horology brand Zenith has a rich history that has shaped its success today mainly due to the futuristic mindset that prevails among its watchmakers.</p>



<div style="height:15px" aria-hidden="true" class="wp-block-spacer"></div>



<p>In fact, the idea for Zenith’s iconic Pilot line emerged back in the late 19th century, even before the first flight, with its founder Georges Favre-Jacot’s belief that humankind would reach the sky one day. With such an outlook and dedication to aviation, the Pilot line was created as one of the first watches for pilots.</p>



<div style="height:15px" aria-hidden="true" class="wp-block-spacer"></div>



<p>Since then Zenith has continued to hold onto this heritage while simultaneously adapting to contemporary trends to launch a series of Pilot watches through the centuries.</p>

<p>Newly added to this line is the <strong>Pilot Automatic</strong> with two renditions – stainless steel and ceramic – released at the Watches and Wonders 2023. This newly-designed timepiece is complete with a rounded 40mm case with a black opaline dial with luminescent numbers using the Super-LumiNova technology, a flat-top bezel and an angular large-sized crown.</p>



<div style="height:15px" aria-hidden="true" class="wp-block-spacer"></div>



<p>While the stainless steel version is vertically satin-brushed and comes with two interchangeable straps in brown calfskin leather and black cordura-effect rubber, the ceramic ones have a matte finish and are accompanied by a black Cordura-effect rubber strap and a khaki cordura-effect rubber strap. The dial also has the words pilot engraved on it, a word that was trademarked by Zenith in 1904.</p>

<p>The most notable aspect of the new Pilot Automatic is the 6’o clock mark which is replaced by the date and has a bold white dash on top of it to mimic the artificial horizon instrument seen on aeroplanes thus showing off the horologist’s aviation spirit.</p>



<div style="height:15px" aria-hidden="true" class="wp-block-spacer"></div>



<p>Beyond its physical aspects, the watch has a winding mechanism that uses an open and blackened oscillating weight similar to the artificial horizon instrument and boasts an El Primero 3620 high-frequency manufacture movement which gives the instrument its 60-hour power reserve when it is wound fully.</p>

<p>Another equally fascinating watch in the Pilot series is the newly-released chronograph timepiece <strong>Pilot Big Date Flyback</strong> which is embedded with a newly-developed version of the El Primero 3600 calibre, the El Primero 3652 calibre which is particularly made with the pilots’ requirements in mind by including two distinctive features – the big date and the flyback function.</p>



<div style="height:15px" aria-hidden="true" class="wp-block-spacer"></div>



<p>With a dial that is slightly bigger than the Pilot Automatic – precisely 42.5mm, the brand dropped two versions of the Pilot Big Date Flyback also in stainless steel and ceramic. Its watch dial is an ode to the brand’s iconic El Primero Rainbow from 1997 with its bright orange minute and seconds hands and an oversized date display. Similar to the Pilot Automatic, the Big Date Flyback also come with exchangeable watch straps and has a quick-release mechanism too allowing watch wearers to effortlessly change the straps.</p>


<div class="wp-block-image">
<figure class="aligncenter size-large is-resized"><img decoding="async" loading="lazy" src="https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/ZENITH_DEFY-Skyline_49.9300.3620.21.I200_4x5-717x1024.png" alt="" class="wp-image-75956" width="500" height="625"/></figure></div>


<p>In addition to the Pilot collection, Zenith also launched three other unisex watches – Defy Revival Shadow, Defy Skyline Ceramic and Defy Skyline Skeleton Ceramic – as part of its DEFY Revival line at the Watches and Wonder 2023. The new pieces are a modern revival of the original DEFY model released in 1969.</p>



<div style="height:15px" aria-hidden="true" class="wp-block-spacer"></div>



<p>The <strong>Defy Skyline Ceramic</strong>, for instance, has a flat top bezel with an octagonal-shaped black ceramic case that gives the watch its bold appeal. The watch’s case and straps – available in rubber and ceramic – are manufactured with metals and alloys that give the watch its unhinged quality which ensures that watch wearers need not worry about scratches or the watch losing its vibrant new look.</p>



<div style="height:15px" aria-hidden="true" class="wp-block-spacer"></div>



<p>In terms of its technical aspects, the gadget is inbuilt with an automatic high-frequency El Primero 3620 manufacture movement and the first-ever 1/10th of a second indicator.</p>

<p style="font-size:16px">Panerai Radiomir Annual Calendar PAM01432</p>
</div></div>



<p>Panerai unveiled six new Radiomir editions at Watches and Wonders 2023, paying tribute to the prototype presented in 1935. Bearing the brand’s debut annual calendar complication, two Radiomir Annual Calendar watches, PAM01432 and PAM01363, were the highlights. The dial is clearly designed and displays all the requisite information in a neat row at 3 o’clock: day and date visible through two apertures, and the current month on an external moving disc, indicated by a fixed arrow. With each monthly cycle, a cam within the P.9010/ AC automatic movement allows the rotating disc and the information display to change instantaneously. PAM01432’s splendid burgundy sun-brushed dial with luminous Arabic numerals and hour markers offers smart contrast to its platinum case.</p>

<p style="font-size:16px">Chopard Alpine Eagle Cadence 8HF</p>
</div></div>



<p>The new Alpine Eagle Cadence 8HF from Chopard combines precision, style and sportiness. It is the second high-frequency model – an innovation that delivers enhanced accuracy and stability – within the Alpine Eagle collection and is initially difficult to discern from an Alpine Eagle 41 in Lucent Steel. While Alpine Eagle watches are traditionally made of the brand’s proprietary ‘Lucent’ steel, ethical gold, or a combination of the two, the new Cadence model is all-titanium with a snazzy splash of orange on its black dial. Whereas Lucent Steel is shiny, hard and particularly comfortable to touch, titanium is distinguished by its even lighter weight, darker colour and more robust nature.</p>

<p style="font-size:16px">Rolex Oyster Perpetual Cosmograph Daytona</p>
</div></div>



<p>Rolex aimed to preserve continuity with the past while demonstrating the powers of invention in its latest creations unveiled at the show. Take the Oyster Perpetual Cosmograph Daytona, which offers even greater visual harmony and a more modern demeanour. The dial graphics have a new balance. Lines of light are reflected from the lugs and the sides of its redesigned middle case. On versions with a Cerachrom bezel, this is edged with the same metal as the middle case. Most striking, though, is the addition of a sapphire caseback, allowing a clear view of the new manufacture 4131 calibre.</p>

<p style="font-size:16px">Zenith Pilot Automatic</p>
</div></div>



<p>Taking Zenith’s fascination with the world of aviation to a higher plane at Watches and Wonders 2023 is the Pilot Automatic enhanced by an entirely new 40mm case design. Crafted in either stainless steel or black ceramic, it features a distinct flat-top round bezel fixed on top of the rounded case. In the steel version, the surfaces are vertically satin-brushed with polished chamfers; the black ceramic model is microblasted for a stealthy matte finish. The oversized crown, a defining feature of Pilot watches, takes on a more modern, angular form while remaining easy to operate – even with gloves on.</p>

<p style="font-size:16px">Cartier Tank Normale </p>
</div></div>



<p>Cartier presented delicate and detailed refinements to models in its iconic watch collections. For instance, for its seventh Cartier Privé incarnation, the Maison has added a skeleton movement to the Tank Normale, accompanied by a quirky 24-hour complication marked by a sun and crescent moon that is also skeletonised. While the minute hand turns around the dial in one hour, the hour hand goes around in 24 hours instead of 12.</p>

</div></div>



<p>Patek Philippe also regaled attendees with a substantial number of debutants to an already vast range of collections. In total, it showed 17 new iterations, including Ref. 5224R-001 Calatrava Travel Time, an addition to its travel watches, which is equipped with dual time-zone function and distinguished by its 24-hour display. The Aquanaut Luce line welcomes a new useful and easy-to-use complication: the patented Annual Calendar Ref. 5261R-001. Adorned in blue-grey from dial to matching strap, this elegant rose gold timepiece enriches the brand’s range of complicated watches for women by presenting a non-gem-set model.</p>

<p>The Monovortex Split-Seconds Chronograph from Roger Dubuis was another Watches and Wonders 2023 standout. The eye-catching model boasts a 47mm case made of hyper-tech MCF (Mineral Composite Fibre) – a material 2.5 times lighter than ceramic and 13% lighter than carbon. A Turborotor Cylindrical Oscillating Weight also features, sitting at 12 o’clock and positioned vertically, so that the entire force of gravity pushes down on the design to keep the watch running efficiently.</p>

Dual Exordium: Blancpain’s new Fifty Fathoms Bathyscaphe Quantième Complet

<p>On 30 May 2022, Rolex unveils its latest creations. The watchmaker subsequently invited <em>Gafencu</em> to public showing of its fine new range in Hong Kong on 31 May. One of the first things you notice when you pick up a Rolex wristwatch is the heft. The sturdiness a testament to consummate craftsmanship.</p>

<p>The first watch we examined was the Rolex <strong><em>Oyster Perpetual Air-King</em></strong>. This superb timepiece celebrates the pioneers of aviation and encourages those that wear it to take command of their own destiny. The dial inspired by aircraft instruments but the 2022 iteration also it incorporates new features. The dial is now easier to read and achieves better balance due to the addition of a ‘0’ before the ‘5’ on the minutes scale, while a crown guard and straight sides have also been included. These evolutions confirm the Air-King’s place among the brand’s Professional models.</p>
<p><figure id="attachment_66801" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-66801" style="width: 586px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="wp-image-66801 size-full" src="//www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/Rolex-Skys-limit-new-watch-collection-GMT-Master-II-e1654768466618.jpg" alt="Rolex-Skys-limit-new-watch-collection-GMT-Master II" width="586" height="466" srcset="https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/Rolex-Skys-limit-new-watch-collection-GMT-Master-II-e1654768466618.jpg 586w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/Rolex-Skys-limit-new-watch-collection-GMT-Master-II-e1654768466618-200x159.jpg 200w" sizes="(max-width: 586px) 100vw, 586px" /><figcaption id="caption-attachment-66801" class="wp-caption-text">Rolex Oyster Perpetual GMT-Master II</figcaption></figure></p>
<p>The next was based on a Rolex classic ­– the <strong><em>Oyster Perpetual</em></strong><strong><em> GMT-Master II</em></strong>. &nbsp;Since its creation in 1955, the GMT-Master has seen some of the greatest moments in aviation history – as varied as the first intercontinental flights to world speed records to Concorde testing. Feats that are underscore human endeavour as much as they are to technological excellence. The GMT-Master II builds on this legacy.</p>
<p>This new iteration of the timepiece incorporated several innovations. It required moving the winding crown to the left side of the watch case and the date aperture to 9 o’clock, as well as modifying the date disc – adjustments that also led to greater precision in the testing process carried out during final controls. The Cerachrom bezel insert is in green and black, a striking colour combination that is exclusive to this watch.</p>

<p>The final timepiece put forward for our consideration was the <strong><em>Oyster Perpetual Yacht-Master 40</em></strong>. The new Yacht-Master 40 harnesses elements of the ocean, the sky and the sun. The bezel, set with diamonds and sapphires in hues of blue, silver and pink, is inspired by the aurora borealis and the first blush of dawn. The palette of hues is accentuated by the 46 diamonds that adorn the lugs and crown guard. An absolute stunner.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

Sky’s the limit for Rolex’s new Oyster Perpetual watch collection

<p>When it was invented in the twilight years of the 18th century, the tourbillon was lauded as a revolutionary piece of horological engineering. Created to turn the escapement and balance wheel continuously within a rotating cage, it negated the effects of gravity on the commonly worn pocket watches of the era and thus ensured the heightened precision of the timepiece.</p>
<p>Today, with wristwatches now dominant, tourbillons are no longer critical to maintaining timekeeping precision. Yet, they continue to grace high-end wrist adornments as a testament to a watchmaker’s skilled craftsmanship. Here, we highlight seven recent creations that have eye-catchingly incorporated this mechanical marvel.</p>
<p><strong>1. Vacheron Constantin Les Cabinotiers Grande Complication Bacchus</strong></p>
<p><img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-65055" src="//www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/Gilded-Cage-Hyper-accurate-tourbillons-gafencu-watch-luxury-timepiece-vacheron-constantin-les-cabinotiers-grande-complication-bacchus-1.jpg" alt="Gilded Cage Hyper-accurate tourbillons gafencu watch luxury timepiece vacheron constantin les cabinotiers grande complication bacchus" width="700" height="466" srcset="https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/Gilded-Cage-Hyper-accurate-tourbillons-gafencu-watch-luxury-timepiece-vacheron-constantin-les-cabinotiers-grande-complication-bacchus-1.jpg 700w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/Gilded-Cage-Hyper-accurate-tourbillons-gafencu-watch-luxury-timepiece-vacheron-constantin-les-cabinotiers-grande-complication-bacchus-1-200x133.jpg 200w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/Gilded-Cage-Hyper-accurate-tourbillons-gafencu-watch-luxury-timepiece-vacheron-constantin-les-cabinotiers-grande-complication-bacchus-1-600x399.jpg 600w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/Gilded-Cage-Hyper-accurate-tourbillons-gafencu-watch-luxury-timepiece-vacheron-constantin-les-cabinotiers-grande-complication-bacchus-1-421x280.jpg 421w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/Gilded-Cage-Hyper-accurate-tourbillons-gafencu-watch-luxury-timepiece-vacheron-constantin-les-cabinotiers-grande-complication-bacchus-1-120x80.jpg 120w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/Gilded-Cage-Hyper-accurate-tourbillons-gafencu-watch-luxury-timepiece-vacheron-constantin-les-cabinotiers-grande-complication-bacchus-1-500x333.jpg 500w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/Gilded-Cage-Hyper-accurate-tourbillons-gafencu-watch-luxury-timepiece-vacheron-constantin-les-cabinotiers-grande-complication-bacchus-1-400x266.jpg 400w" sizes="(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px" /></p>
<p>First is Vacheron Constantin <em><strong>Les Cabinotiers Grande Complication Bacchus</strong></em>. A stunning ode to fine watchmaking, this statement timepiece features a staggering 16 complications, including calendar and astronomical indications as well as a minute repeater. The tourbillon proper takes pride of place at six o’clock on the front dial, while sidereal time is displayed at the back. The 47mm case is also etched with intertwining grapes and vines as a tribute to the Roman god of wine.</p>
<p><strong>2.Girard-Perregaux La Esmeralda Tourbillon “A Secret” Eternity Edition</strong></p>

<p>Another prime example of haute-horological skill comes courtesy of Girard-Perregaux’s<em><strong> La Esmeralda Tourbillon “A Secret” Eternity Edition</strong></em>. Based on the prize-winning La Esmeralda pocket watch that debuted at the 1889 Exposition Universelle in Paris, its blue enamel dial similarly features three dominant gold bridges, with the tourbillon positioned at the bottom. The equine inspiration of yesteryear has also been revived in this 18-piece limited edition, with two hand-engraved galloping horses straddling the dial.

<p>For a more streamlined – though no less mechanically impressive – design, look no further than Audemars Piguet’s<em><strong> Royal Oak Selfwinding Flying Tourbillon Openworked</strong></em>. Produced to mark the Royal Oak’s 50th anniversary, this 41mm stainless-steel timepiece is burnished with the brand’s first self-winding flying tourbillon open-worked movement – the Calibre 2972 – showed off to perfection by its skeletonised motif. Eschewing any unnecessary elements, it boasts an almost industrial appeal.</p>

<p>Similarly boasting an open-worked aesthetic – though with a sleek blue on platinum and white gold vibe – is Bulgari’s<em><strong> Octa Roma Blue Carillon Tourbillon</strong></em>. Visible beneath its fascia is the hand-wound calibre BVL428 movement, replete with a tourbillon minute repeater whose chiming is the product of three hammers and gongs. In a smart move, the grille-like accents on its dial are designed to have as few obstructions as possible in order to allow clear passage of sound from within.</p>

<p>Bulgari also teamed up with renowned independent label MB&amp;F<em> to create the<strong> Legacy Machine Flying T Allegra</strong></em>. Blending high-end horology with haute joaillerie, this opulent design – available in white or red gold and limited to 20 pieces each – sees the eponymous flying tourbillon take centre stage beneath a distinctive domed dial. The pavéd diamond hour-and-minute subdial, meanwhile, is propped against it at a slant. Almost every visible inch of this bejewelled creation is carpeted with gemstones, as the likes of topaz, amethyst, tsavorite and tourmaline punctuate the plentiful diamonds.</p>

<p>Another exquisite limited-edition wrist implement is Fleurier-based Bovet’s<em><strong> Virtuoso VIII Chapter Two Reimagined DLC-SLN</strong></em> – the reimagining and the abbreviations involve a grade 5 titanium case coated in black Diamond Like Carbon. Its fascia features two subdials (a 10-day power reserve indicator on the left and another with a date aperture and model number on the right), while the tourbillon is visible at six o’clock. Just eight pieces each of six colourways – blue, salmon, turquoise, violet, green or yellow – will be made.</p>

<p>Rounding out our list of top tourbillon designs is Roger Dubuis’<em><strong> Excalibur Gully Monotourbillon</strong></em> – a collaboration with French graffiti artist Gully. Here, his interpretation of the Excalibur Monotourbillon’s iconic star motif is evidenced by abstract angular accents, some in a riot of colourful accents. It’s a deft touch, as the multihued touches also spell out his name, with the ‘U’ neatly ringing the tourbillon in question. Adroitly fusing haute horologerie with street art, this outré timepiece playfully explores new bounds of watchmaking without ever once skimping on precision engineering.</p>

<p>A symphony of durability and comfort delivers, these protective creations are a perfect harmony of innovation, materials and design. Gentle, light and resistant to wear-and-tear, cases utilise such high-tech materials as Ceramos ™ and Plasma High-Tech Ceramic, as well as the monobloc construction – which fastens the primary movement components directly into the case, an attribution credited to only the Swiss maison – ensuring each piece can last until eternity.</p>

<p>Producing such intricate designs can only come about through the meticulous production process – one that requires utmost precision, skill, and, above all else, loving care. The method begins by creating a mould which is then injected and heated at 1,450°C for several hours to reach its maximum hardness and colour intensity. For Plasma High-Tech Ceramic, the components then undergo an additional oven treatment to transform its stark white hue to a sleek metallic finish. During this process, the case shrinks by 23 percent, after which it is machined down to achieve the accurate final dimensions required.</p>

<p>Moving onto the polishing, and the components are bathed in high-frequency vibrations to produce an exceptional shine, while precision-sandblasting bequeathes it an even matte finish. Meanwhile, the finer details of the case are further treated with engraving and lacquering processes as required before undergoing a rigorous inspection to ensure every piece meets Rado’s specific standards. The end result are timepieces that blend innovation and modern beauty with the finest watchmaking skills.</p>
