NEW CREATIONS
TISSOT - Sailing Touch
By simply touching the dial, sailors will now be able to confront
any weather with style. The Sailing Touch is a useful instrument for
checking the weather conditions with its integrated histogram of the
six previous hours and a function for measuring relative air pressure.
It is also equipped with a calculator that indicates the tides in the
port of destination. But that is not all! This formidable tactile
instrument is indispensible for regattas, with its countdown function
for those crucial ten minutes preceding the start of the race,
signalled by both beeps and a digital display. The impressive range of
functions also includes a mechanism for measuring speed over a given
distance, a compass, two alarms, two time-zones, a perpetual calendar
and back-lighting.

PORSCHE DESIGN - Heritage P'6530
Thirty years ago, Porsche Design created a small revolution in the
watch world by launching the first chronograph in titanium. It has now
reproduced this legendary model. Faithful to the original, the new
Heritage P’6530, constructed entirely in shot-blasted titanium, has the
same positive characteristics as its illustrious predecessor: pure,
clear lines and integrated pushpieces. Only the diameter of the case
has changed: to reflect modern trends, it has been increased to a
generous 44 mm. Nevertheless, it remains just as comfortable to wear
thanks to the extreme lightness of the titanium, which is very easy on
the skin and offers strong resistance to corrosion. Limited edition of
911 pieces.

REBELLION TIMEPIECES - Predator
In its two years of existence, Rebellion has built a solid
reputation with exceptional timepieces – chronographs, regulators and
tourbillions – inspired by the world of automobile racing. Conceived in
collaboration with the designer Eric Giroud, the Predator also borrows
many of its features from racing cars: the brake discs and the pedals,
the five-layer dial with its honeycomb base, and the push rod shaped
bridges connecting the chronograph counters to the dial. Not to mention
the formidable technical mastery of the double sectorial seconds hand
at 9 o’clock: the shorter hand indicates 0 to 30 seconds, with the
longer one taking over for 30 to 60 seconds. The case is constructed in
a sandwich of superimposed layers available in various materials, so
there are many ways to personalise the timepiece.

TAG HEUER - Carrera 1887
TAG Heuer’s legendary motor racing-inspired collection, the
Carrera, has been expanded with the new Calibre 1887 Chronograph. Both
high-performing and elegant, this automatic chronograph is extremely
easy to read thanks to its refined design and the very slender bezel
providing optimal dial visibility. The small seconds runs freely at 9
o’clock, devoid of all constraints. Available in very classic
combinations – silvered or black dial with alligator strap or steel
bracelet – the Carrera Calibre 1887 chronograph joins the exclusive
circle of watches unencumbered by time.

RECONVILIER - Hercules Golf Master
Combining a mechanical movement with a GPS application, the Golf
Master enables golfers for the very first time to measure the distance
to the green, front edge or centre! This original function is displayed
on the front of the watch in metres or yards, while the reversible
“Rotar” mechanism provides a classic analogue reading of the time on
the other side. With one touch, the time is also displayed digitally.
|
VICTORINOX - Dive Master 500 Black Ice Chrono
Timing comes together with the world of diving in this new Dive
Master 500, with its highly original chronograph with a central minutes
and seconds display. Water-resistant to 500 metres, it is both robust
and functional. It has excellent legibility thanks to its luminescent
hands, hourmarkers and numerals, on the dial and on the unidirectional
rotating bezel, and is equipped with a truly sporty Black Ice PVD case.
A contemporary watch par excellence, this new model from Victorinox
Swiss Army is available in black, red or orange.
|
DAVIDOFF - Very Zino Champion Collection
The latest creations from Davidoff reflect the spirit of the brand
and harmoniously combine elegance and modernity with the highest
quality. The watches in the new Very Zino Champion Collection are
equipped with Swiss precision timing provided by Swiss automatic
movements and embody the robust character and the finesse it takes to
be a champion.
|
TISSOT - PRS 516 Chrono
A truly legendary timekeeper, the PRS 516 had already made its
mark in the 1960’s, both on and off the racetracks, before winning a
prestigious award for an advertising campaign featuring the product on
a rally driver’s gloved wrist. Today’s PRS 516 features a Valjoux
automatic chronograph and pays tribute to Tissot’s passion for the
sport of motor racing. While fans will appreciate the touch of
nostalgia in its retro-modern design, they can also have the
satisfaction of knowing that their watch houses the most cutting-edge
innovations in the field of watchmaking.

MIRA - Space Sensation
The star that was baptised Mira in 1662 also gave its name to a
watch brand in 1896, a quality brand that introduced a two-way rotor in
the 1940’s, the portent of today’s automatic watches. A variable star,
Mira is shining brightly again after a long eclipse. Its renaissance
was inspired by the syzygy, the alignment of celestial bodies on the
same gravitational axis. A perfect conjunction, Mira’s Space Sensation
aligns the retrograde minutes in the lower part of the mother-of-pearl
or aventurine dial, a small seconds at its centre and an hour display
in the upper part. The Mira logo, the 4th celestial body, takes place
of honour at the very top of the dial, a dramatic completion of this
unique syzygy.

VICTORINOX - Chrono Classic Lady Diamond
Sophisticated and elegant, this special Chrono Classic Lady model
features a superb caramel dial, echoed by a matching shiny bracelet.
Quintessentially feminine, it boasts very refined contrasts between a
bezel set with 96 diamonds and white mother-of-pearl counters circled
with polished appliques. Under the noble case with its alternating
satin-finished and polished surfaces lies a chronograph movement that
records times to 1/10th second and has a large date. Special Saint
Valentine’s edition.
|
TISSOT - Visodate 1957 Automatic
Launched in 1953 to celebrate Tissot’s 100th anniversary, the
Visodate drew on a rich history of innovation. At the time, the
integration of a date display into an automatic movement was a feat of
virtuosity, which Tissot has brilliantly recaptured in this very
beautiful contemporary version. While today’s model benefits from
cutting-edge technology and materials, its vintage spirit has been
preserved with the Tissot date and logo from 1953.
|
RODANIA - Themis Automatic Watch
In keeping with the identifying features of the Swiss Chic
collection, this new automatic timepiece from Rodania embodies
classicism and understated refinement. Its elegance is reinforced by a
graceful design, devoid of all superficiality. With its blend of
technical excellence and meticulously worked finishing, the style is
perfect for men.
|
SWISSPACE - Swisspace Black
More intense than ever, the SwisSpace is making a big hit in its
black version. Black for the PVD bezel, black for the croco-style
strap, and black for a dial that nevertheless offers a few contrasts –
black on white or white on black to suggest the earth viewed from
space. And matching the stitching on the strap, the yellow centre
seconds-hand adds an unexpected splash of colour!
|
VASTO - Royal Power Edition
This sportier Power Edition model is a natural addition to the
Royal line. Its case and bracelet are thicker while remaining faithful
to the brand’s graphic design. With an automatic chronograph movement
and water resistance to 100 metres, it will become a must for all
sportsmen.
|
SWISSPACE - Swisspace Red
The SwisSpace was inspired by the legendary Spaceman, a 1970’s
icon. It has kept the original oval shape of the case as well as its
three-pronged strap. Now featuring a very futuristic 12-facetted
pyramidal mineral crystal and available in a multitude of different
versions, it has already become a must with the in-generation.
|
WALCA - Concept IX
Walca, the Swiss leader in private-label watches, specialises in
the development and production of customised models. Concept IX is one
example. This new model possesses all the attributes of a legitimate
21st century watch: high-tech with its steel case with carbon insert
and bezel with large screws, innovative with its semi-circular minute
and seconds counters, and sporty with its chronograph and tachometer
functions. Not to mention its superb design: very contemporary black
carbon dial, dashboard-style counters and luminescent hands and
hourmarkers. And last but not least, the very elegant colour highlights
in the dial and strap.
|
VASTO - Duke Business
A contemporary symbol of the brand’s values, the new Duke Business
collection embodies tradition, modernism, elegance and harmony. Always
in quest of excellence, Vasto pays meticulous attention to finishing,
as testified by this superb ivory dial enhanced by the subtle interplay
of diamonds and pink gold-plated appliqué numbers.

BERGEON - Extracteurs HH pour lunettes tournantes
The HH 7052 extractors from Bergeon offer a new ring system in a
flexible synthetic material for the scratch-free extraction of all
kinds of rotating bezels. Thanks to their anodised aluminium ergonomic
handle, which is fitted with a finely-adjusted stop screw, the ring can
be adapted to the size of the bezel, thereby avoiding the danger of
deforming it when it is being extracted
|
BERGEON - Plolisseuses Vario
A new generation polisher, the Vario 6890-D (right) or 6890-G
(left) is equipped with a constant torque motor. Completely housed in
steel plate, the Vario’s progressive speed is controlled by an
electronic variator. This new instrument, with independent dust
collection and incorporated lighting, also offers the possibility of
joining the right and left stations to make a double station.
