OMEGA Seamaster PLANET OCEAN Liquidmetal®

It's Omega's latest version of the Planet Ocean, it's got a ceramic bezel and it looks pretty damn sexy.

The Liquidmetal® alloy is an amorphous metal – a metallic material with a disordered, non-crystalline atomic structure. Its fusion temperature is half that of conventional titanium alloys but when it is cooled, its hardness is three times as great as that of stainless steel. Its amorphous structure allows it to bond seamlessly with the ceramic bezel.















The Liquidmetal® is a bulk metallic glass alloy consisting of five elements: zirconium, titanium, copper, nickel and beryllium. A bulk metallic glass can, by virtue of its low critical cooling rate, be formed into a structure with a thickness of more than a tenth of a millimetre. Zirconium is an important constituent part both of the Liquidmetal® alloy and of the ceramic material which is made of zirconium dioxide (Zr02).

The final, perfectly smooth bezel is particularly resistant to scratching and corrosion because of the hardness of the two components.














The union of ceramics and Liquidmetal® at Omega

First, ceramic rings are formed. The numbers and the fine lines of the minute scaling are then engraved into these ceramic bezel rings and polished. The alloy is heated and pressed into the cavities in the ceramic material after which any excess Liquidmetal® is removed. The Liquidmetal® can be manipulated at a lower temperature than metals normally used in watchmaking so the heating process does not damage the ceramic material.

The Liquidmetal® numbers and scales are then satin brushed. Because the ceramic is a harder material than the alloy, the satin brushing of the fine details can be done without affecting the ceramic bezel. The numbers and scaling then appear in bold, vivid contrast to the glossy ceramic background.



















Redefining longevity in the watch industry . . .

The Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean Liquidmetal® Limited Edition, which has a stainless steel case and bracelet, is driven by Omega’s revolutionary Co-Axial calibre 2500. These movements, which have been heralded for their long-term chronometric performance, are perfectly complemented by the ceramic and Liquidmetal® alloy components which are incredibly resistant to corrosion and scratching.

The result is pure Omega: a design premiere which will retain its appearance indefinitely, blended with innovative Co-Axial technology.

Ti-Bridge Tourbillon, $63,400

Like all Ti-Bridge watches the case is going to be beautifully finished. It is really a piece of art and feels so smooth in the hands. You can see all the different forms of titanium in various polishes. The dial looks like it is a screen being framed by the case. A nice "Corum" logo is engraved into bridge on the movement - I like the slightly restyled logo. Looks pretty sharp next to the key emblem.

The in-house made movement is very thin in the standard horizontal fashion of the timepiece line. The movement should be made of mostly titanium, and looks to have double barrels (for at least 50-60 hours of power reserve), and of course is manually wound.

It is hard to convey just how cool a design the Corum Ti-Bridge watches are. They are fashioney watches, but nice ones at that. What I mean is that they aren't function first designs. You have the hands on the dial but no scales for them. This is a watch that is all about how it looks on the wrist and the beauty of the very small movement.

Considered one of the most delicate and complex watch mechanisms, the tourbillon may or may not improve the accuracy of your timepiece, but it will certainly improve how it looks.

Bell and Ross Steps Back In Time With New Vintage Collection

Nothing better than a throw back to the 1940's when it comes to watches. Bell & Ross has just release their Vintage Collection that features two Swiss movements — automatic hours, minutes and seconds version (BR 123) and a chronograph version (BR 126). They're available in black and beige dials.

The kicker for me is the leather strap. As I get older, I prefer the look of classic watches on basic leather bands.

Hermes Carre H watch

Hermes has revealed a new limited edition timepiece for luxury watch collectors, the Hermes Carre H Watch. The new Carre H was designed by architect Marc Berthier, who gave this Hermes watch a plain, simple and bold appearance. It features a curved titanium case, gunmetal in color, and a geometric etched display bearing the Hermes logo. Its back side has a clear window to see the watch’s inner movement, in this case provided by Sowind/Girard-Perregaux and given a power reserve of 44 hours. The Hermes Carre H watch may not be revolutionary in the world of watches, but it is remarkably true to the luxury character which Hermes aims to deliver.

The Hermes Carre H Watch will be released in a limited run of 173 pieces with a suggested retail price of $15,000.
