Feminine Beauties

Feminine watches! The biggest confusion is whether to choose a fashion friendly or a classic lady-like watch. For a lady, it is difficult to find the two combined, it’s like a catch-22 situation.

If you are on the quest for a fashion watch, you might be limited to brands that often lack good mechanical craftsmanship. On the other hand, if you have a taste for a jewelry watch, you might be confined to eccentric granny style designs. So what to do?

So, let us recommend some pieces of art that will stay with you forever.

1. If high precision watch making is not really your cup of tea and you prefer something more vibrant with lot of sparkle, this “Heure du Diamant” watch by Chopard in 18-carat white gold and diamonds is a jewel in it’s own sense. The beautifully crafted oval case and dial are surrounded by diamonds all over and comes with a soft satin strap. “A luminous display of elegant luxury” would be a suitable phrase for this horology.

2. For a truly elegant and superbly crafted watch, you can always depend on Cartier Tank Anglaise. The Tank story takes an unexpected turn with the Tank Anglaise. The winding mechanism seamlessly incorporated into the case is a distinctive feature. Its 18 carat pink gold case set with brilliant cut diamonds is superbly chic and its stylish simplicity means you can wear it from a regular day at office to a formal black-tie evening.

3. For all the women who appreciate timepieces decked out with bling, Double Mystery by Franck Muller is the watch for you. The dial is set with 218 diamonds and hands-free hours/minutes which alternatively is indicated by two turning disks. This crafted watch comes in a white gold case with 120 colored stones and diamonds.

4. The Datejust PearlMaster 34 is not merely a watch but a statement of strength, sophistication, class and tradition. It is rightly named as Rolex’s crowning jewelry featuring softly curved lines of the Pearl master design. This beauty is available in rose (currently in the picture), yellow and white gold. This stunning timepiece is characterized by a rich and exquisite gem setting of diamonds. This is an ideal possession to be passed down to your future generations.

5. If you prefer something a bit more contemporary, sleek and unfussy, Audemars Piguet Royal Oak ladies is a perfect fit for you. It’s the white gold case is entirely set with 152 diamonds and glare-proof sapphire crystal. 318 diamond-paved dial with white gold hour markers and Royal Oak hands with luminescent coating totally makes it stand out.

6. Velvet timepieces are Haute Horlogerie divas that draw all eyes with their exceptional charisma.  The femininity, glamour and sheer sparkle of Velvet watch places it unmistakably in the world of Diva. The Velvet High Jewellery (RDDBV0014) in white gold is paved with diamonds and is testimony to the unrivaled expertise of Roger Dubuis. It’s a magic blend of technicality and preciousness, with 304 beguetts arranged in an invisible setting seem to magnify the shine of the stones.

7. Sugar by De Grisogono transforms the watch into a luxurious sweet treat. The moving gems create a free movement leaving a sparkling cascade of the highest quality of blue sapphires. The combination of sophisticated movement, pink gold case along with a dial full of diamond cut sapphires sums up to a timepiece that is both classic yet innovative at the same time.

8. The most vibrant collection by Hublot till date is the Big Bang Pop Art. Drawing inspiration from Andy Warhol, a pioneer in the Pop Art Movement, with a daring disregard of conformity and an edgy feeling of fun, the ultra-feminine yet fashionable automatic chronographs are for you if you are a lover of colors with technological jazz. The watches are available in hot pink, purple, dazzling blue and apple green with 41mm case size. Not only do these colors evoke a feeling of pop art era nostalgia, but they were also the hottest spring colors for 2014.

9. The Imperiale 40mm by Chopard in rose gold is a sparkling feast of color. A veritable rainbow of sapphires, beguetts and glowing diamonds encircle an elegant mother-of-pearl dial on which rainbow sapphire indexes and stately rose-gold hands and roman numerals take center stage. A regal rose-gold bracelet adds the finishing touch to this utterly unique timepiece. It is quintessentially perfect for those who like their timepieces to be elegant and sophisticated with a touch of uniqueness in them.

10. If you think you have seen some of the most bling-bling watches, wait till you see Harry Winston Signature 7 diamond studded timepiece. This jewel in the form of a bracelet is overflowing with diamonds. The case is done in white gold while a dizzying collection of 380 diamonds glitter on the case and bracelet and another 48 diamonds on the dial. This watch is sure to make any lady glitter and dazzle.

Top Pilot Watches

Today, pilots have all sorts of electronic equipment to help them, but even then, the pilot’s watch is great for everyday use because of its reliability and clarity with respect to various aspects of flight. And for anyone interested in flying, it immediately becomes a source of fascination. It conjures up images of exploring the deep blue sky in a Spitfire or a Typhoon… The technical features of pilot’s watches are generally anti-magnetic qualities, good shock protection, and sometimes hacking seconds for synchronization.

Although designed to help pilots during mid-flight, aviation watches are some of the most stylish timepieces on the planet. There’s something about their functional design, which is both intrinsically appealing and unwaveringly masculine, and for this, we love them. 

Here are five of the Best Pilot watches. 

 1.  BREITLING EMERGENCY II

The most famous of all aviation watches, the Breitling Emergency II is as stylish as it is practical. The dual frequency emergency beacon technology is basically part timepiece, and part radio transmitter. The system uses a rechargeable battery, which should be charged every two months. In addition to the dual frequency capabilities, the Breitling Emergency II watch is finally an emergency beacon system that allows for search and rescue anywhere in the world. It is water-resistant up to 50 meters. With the titanium case aside, the BREITLING Emergency II Watch comes in three different dial colors – Volcano Black, Cobra Yellow, and Intrepid Orange in 51mm case size.

2. Zenith Pilot Doublematic

The Zenith Pilot Doublematic boasts an impressive list of features without trading mechanical prowess for digital programming. Packed into its 45-mm steel case, the Doublematic sports a 30-minute chronograph, world time, an alarm with its own power reserve indicator, and a big date display — all thanks to the Zenith El Primero 4046 movement. The 4046 is a 5Hz automatic movement with 439 components, 41 jewels, a power reserve of 50 hours and a total thickness of over 9 mm. The Pilot Doublematic is designed for travel; whether you’re in the cockpit or the first class cabin, this impressive watch will be right at home.

3.  IWC BIG PILOT

A legendary watch among the IWC family, the Big Pilot has been in production for a staggering 70 years, making it one of the longest-running watches from the famed Swiss brand. Housed inside is one of their most impressive movements – the biggest ever for IWC Big Pilot; the 51111-calibre movement effortlessly builds up a 7-day power reserve and the unique design of the case protects the watch against magnetic fields.

The signal red counterpoise on the central hand shows the silhouette of a jet. The model is offered in a 48 mm diameter, Case height 15 mm and Water-resistant 6 bar.

4. Bell & Ross BR 03 Ceramic

Bell & Ross’s watches mimic the instruments of an aircraft’s cockpit. The BR 03 presented in 2014 is made in ceramic, strong and scratch-proof, and matt black like aircraft instruments. The Swiss-made automatic movement (ETA 2892) provides hours, minutes, seconds and date, in a large 42-mm case, with 100 metres water resistance. The strap is in black rubber or black heavy-duty canvas, with black PVD-coated steel pin buckle. 

5. Hamilton pilot’s watch

The Khaki Pilot Pioneer Aluminum is the first time that Hamilton has used the light, aeronautical metal, in a series of four colours, sand, khaki, black and navy blue. The design was inspired by watches that Hamilton made for the R.A.F. in the 1970s, with an asymmetric case, wider on the right hand side than on the left. A crown at 2 o’clock can be used to rotate the internal bezel, whose markings make it possible to use the watch for a countdown. The H-10 movement has an 80-hour power reserve. The watch is very light, and mounted on a NATO strap of the same colour as the case, with leather details and aluminium pin buckle. The model is offered in a 41 mm diameter size.

DIGITAL TRENDS TO WATCH

The watch world once belonged to the traditional watchmakers but things are quickly changing as timepieces become more and more technology infused. The past century’s most revolutionary invention was the introduction of digital watches in 1883. Out of the watch clan digital watches come with tremendous functionalities.

The first digital pocket watch was the invention of Austrian engineer Josef Pallweber who created his "jump-hour" mechanism. The idea behind jump-hour mechanism was to use a window on the dial of the watch to display the hours digitally while displaying the minutes in a traditional manner. By 1885, Pallweber's mechanism was already being used by brands like Cortébert and IWC in the form of pocket watches. Over the years, many different types of digital watches have been developed.

Digital watches come with many functions which probably you would not have thought a watch can do. For instance, a Digital watch, Approach S6 golfing watch is designed for Golfers to help them improve their swing while guiding them through golf courses. The Brig Tide and Train digital watch by Vestal is made with surfers in mind with the ability to track incoming and outgoing tides in over 200 different beach locations around the world. Tissot T-Touch is a high-precision instrument which is the perfect partner for professional mountaineers and skiers. The Breitling Emergency-2 is a perfect choice for professional pilots and frequent travellers.

 As we look forward into technology, all the innovation in the world of timekeeping seems to be captured by two words “Smart watches.”Electronic companies like Samsung, Apple, Google and Sony rolled out smartwatches that enabled people to read text messages and emails, and in some cases make phone calls and take photos, directly from their wrists.

On one hand, traditional watch brands are coming up with digital watches with specialized features and designs as any other luxury watch brand like the new “Omega Speedmaster Z-33”. On the contrary, not all smartwatches are designed with equal attention to design, some look a little techier while others are designed with fashion in mind. Functionality is perhaps where smartwatches vary the most. While, some receive a message, email, or phone call alert while others have additional features of social media notifications like the new “Galaxy Gear 2”.

We can go on and on about the latest fashion trends, technology and what is “in”. The crux of the matter is that technology and fashion are ever evolving. There is no end to it, and we will only see better days ahead of us. Fashion and technology keep changing more often. Time travels and thus our new “Smartwatches” are the result of these fashion and technological changes. What remains though is Style. Fashion and technology keeps changing but its Style that remains. As a cherry on top, if style combines with ever-evolving technology there is no looking back!
