For all of you inquiring about the Ferrari watch made by Panerai we have great news for you!

Yes, it is true, Panerai will manufacture watches for Ferrari and we do have limited supplies of the Ferrari by Panerai replica watch . Luxury watch brand Panerai has entered into an agreement to develop, manufacture and distribute watches under the Ferrari brand. Panerai also has been named “Official Timekeeper to Ferrari,” a rep for the watchmaker said Tuesday.

The watches, which will be available at retail in early August, come in 11 styles and range in price from $5,300 to $26,500. The models in the Scuderia Collection display the famous Ferrari shield with the prancing horse, which first appeared on a Scuderia Ferrari car in 1932. The Granturismo Collection celebrates the famous Ferrari black-and-red color combination and also features the prancing horse.

Panerai is a brand of Compagnie Financiere Richemont and does its own in-house advertising. Based in Geneva, Switzerland, Richemont’s portfolio of brands includes Cartier, Van Cleef & Arpels, Alfred Dunhill, Montblanc, and Piaget.

The company’s ad budget was $1.3 million in 2005, per Nielsen Monitor-Plus

The exclusivity of the Mulliner Tourbillon comes at a price especially since only a few dozen of these remarkable timepieces will be made over the next few years. The watch, like the car, will be customized by the future owner who can choose whether he would like a platinum, or yellow, rose or white gold case, the dial colour, the shade of the crocodile leather strap and the type of veneer for the precious wood decoration on the back of the watch.

The movement is a hand-wound Breitling Calibre 18B with tourbillon regulating system, there is a pointer date display and it is a COSC certified chronometer.

The watch has a unique 30-second chronograph mechanism which is unusual in that the central seconds hand revolves around the dial in half a minute as opposed to the normal 60 seconds. This rather surprising configuration offers a more precise reading of the fractions of a second, which in this case is 1/6th of a second. There is also a 15-minute counter. The hour markers are crafted in mother-of-pearl, the owner’s initials are engraved on one of the movement bridges and the precious wooden ring on the caseback, which is available in the one of the six shades and veneers as the Bentley Mulliner trim on the car, is protected by a sapphire crystal. Finally, the dial is available in eight different colours.

The Mulliner Tourbillon, unique in concept,
is a chef-d’oeuvre of workmanship and elegance that is a fitting tribute to the Mulliner Bentley car and the ‘Breitling for Bentley’ watch collection.

Breitling has already introduced a few watch lines elaborated specially for Bentley. Every brand’s fan is sure to have heard about Breitling Le Mans watches that were aimed to mark Bentley’s victory in Le Mans racing in 2003, as well as Breitling for Bentley watch models. Breitling is also involved in producing watches for Continental GT.

Mulliner is one of the most precious jewels in the Bentley factory. Justifying the prestige and success of the car producer, its workshop employs about a hundred of most experienced craftsmen and technicians who do their best to fulfill every particular wish of Bentley owners while maintaining a firm union of technology and tradition.

Breitling followed the spirit of exclusivity inherited by every Bentley automobile and created an exceptional watch. It was given the name of the Mulliner Tourbillon chronograph. However, the wonder will show the time just to very few lucky owners. Breitling intends to produce only a few dozens during the next few years – two timepieces a month.

Every Mulliner Tourbillon is customized by the watch’s future owner. The owner may enjoy the privilege of choosing the case ??“ either in platinum or yellow, rose or white gold, as well as the dial color and decide upon the exact shade of the crocodile leather band. The back of the watch is embellished with the valuable wood decoration – there is also a choice of six different types of veneer. Naturally, it implies unbelievable price – still there are watch connoisseurs ready to pay for exclusivity.

Mulliner’s Peculiar Features

Breitling equipped its exclusive Mulliner watch with manually-wound Breitling Caliber 18B, a movement elaborated specially for Breitling for Bentley series.
Moreover, its “30-second” type chronograph mechanism is matchless due to its central hand. It revolves around the dial in half a minute instead of the common 60 seconds. What advantage does it provide? It makes possible absolutely precise read-off for the fractions of a second. There is a 15-minute totalizer and a pointer-type date display.

If you have studied the timepiece’s characteristics, it becomes clear what idea inspired Breitling’s watchmakers and designers – they wanted to make each Mulliner Tourbillon just unique the same as automobiles developed in the Mulliner workshops. The happy owners of the timekeeping masterpieces will never come across an identical watch.
One more noteworthy feature – each hour-marker on the dial is artistically designed from natural hand-crafted mother-of-pearl.

Nobody will be ever able to question whether the watch is worn by its real owner as every Mulliner Tourbillon watch features the hallmark of its owner. There are the initials engraved on a movement bridge. It is possible to personalize a Mulliner Tourbillon chronograph in a number of ways suggested by the Bentley Mulliner workshops in Crewe.

It should be mentioned that the Mulliner Tourbillon watch is Chronometer-certified by the COSC.

If you are like me and cannot afford the price of over $500,000 USD then our Breitling for Bentley Motors Reproduction watch is perfect for you.

Luxury jeweler Harry Winston has created a new watch inspired by living tennis legend Andre Agassi.

According to the press release from the jewelry house the watch is both sporty and sophisticated.

We hope to get a few replicas for our customers.

Blancpain launches its new Limited Edition Le Brauss Marchante M.Y.S. featuring an evolution of its world record-breaking equation marchante movement. This Limited Edition is to mark the seventh anniversary of Blancpain’s partnership with the Monaco Yacht Show. Visit our fantastic Blancpain replica watch section to purchase your very own Blancpain replica.

For two centuries, perhaps the rarest of watchmaking complications has been the equation of time. Measuring the difference between the length of the solar day, which constantly varies over the course of the year, and the length of the standard 24-hour civil day, an equation of time display has graced only the most exclusive watches and clocks. Even more refined and exclusive is the equation of time display that shows both solar time and civil time with two separate minute hands. In all of watchmaking history, only a handful of the most important clock and pocket watches have featured this form of dual time, termed ‘equation marchante’ or ‘running equation’ display. Indeed equation marchante timepieces have been so exclusive that nearly every single one produced over the last two hundred years has been catalogued and recorded as a historically significant piece.

Blancpain startled the watchmaking world in 2004 when it revealed that it had succeeded in miniaturizing the running equation, which had previously only been built in large-scale clocks and pocket watches. At the Basel fair, Blancpain unveiled the first wristwatch in the world featuring a running equation of time, the Le Brassus Equation Marchante. This landmark timepiece was produced in a limited series of 50 pieces, which were all eagerly snapped up by passionate collectors. However to mark the seventh anniversary of Blancpain’s partnership with the Monaco Yacht Show, Blancpain has created a Limited Edition Le Brassus timepiece featuring an evolution of its world record-breaking equation marchante movement.

It is modern convenience that our timepieces measure and display an exact 24-hour day. Were we more tied to the ancient sundial, we would know that the length of the day changes considerably over the course of the year. The variability in the length of the solar day is the result of what some may consider two flaws in the earth’s position relative to the sun. First the orbit of the earth is not round, but in fact highly elliptical. Second, instead of rotating on an axis which is perpendicular to the plane of the orbit, the earth is inclined at an angle of 23 degrees. These two abnormalities combine to produce days, which consist of a single rotation of the earth relative to the sun, of slightly longer or shorter length depending on the time of the year. Ancient astronomers fascinated by the movement of heavenly bodies, most particularly the most important orb in the sky, the sun, centuries ago began recording data showing the changes in the length of the solar day throughout the course of a year. Their findings have been most commonly expressed by a complex oblong chart termed an analemma. The twin kidney shape of the analemma shows that on but four days a year (April 15th, June 14th, September 2nd and December 26th – these dates change with the leap years) 24-hour civil time and solar time have caught up with each other. At other times the differences between the two may be as much as -16 minutes and + 15 minutes.

Mechanical marvels lie behind the realization of an equation of time display. Through precise calculations, watchmakers have developed a figure eight cam which mechanically mimics the analemma curve derived by astronomers. Turning once per year, this cam is used to drive a finger producing a plus minus display of the difference between solar time and civil time. Blancpain wished to go further however. Its watchmakers strove to create for the first time in a wristwatch an equation display that would simultaneously show both civil time and solar time on two separate minute hands. This was the Le Brassus Equation Marchante watch.

The first of the two minute hands indicates civil time in a conventional fashion. The second minute hand, adorned with the image of a golden sun, indicates solar time. The user can thus, directly read at a glance both civil time and solar time, as well as visualize the ever-changing relationship between the two.

Yet the simplicity of the appearance of the running equation display gives little hint of the complex horological movement that lies under the surface of the dial. The mechanism of the Equation Marchante has been integrated within a self-winding movement, itself combined with the world’s thinnest perpetual calendar module. In turn the equation mechanism is synchronized with the perpetual calendar. The great obstacle which Blancpain surmounted in the design of the running equation was finding a way to drive the solar hand from two sources, the regular running train of the watch, powering the civil minute hand, and a gear train driven by the precision figure eight shaped equation cam. The solution was found in an innovative system of differential gears. The solar hand is, thus, simultaneously powered by two separate sources, its position constantly effected by both. Because the solar time indication is constantly changing in real time, the term ‘running equation’ is the perfect description.

The Limited Edition Equation Marchante M.Y.S is derived from the 2004 watch. Adding to its refinement, the equation display in this new limited edition highlights the running solar hand by dispensing with a plus minus indication which was included on the original watch.

The Le Brassus Equation Marchante M.Y.S. is based upon Blancpain’s calibre 3863 and its 364 components. Endowed with a 72-hour power reserve, this mechanical self-winding movement displays, in addition to the running equation of time by two separate hands, indications of the date, day of the week, month, leap years and small seconds at 6 o’clock. The Equation Marchante thus focuses on essentials, ensures excellent legibility, and features a blend of inner complexity and apparent outward simplicity. In keeping with the same spirit, all the components of this mechanism are chamfered, polished, rhodium-plated, decorated and assembled by hand by Blancpain’s master-watchmakers.

To celebrate this encounter between astronomy and haute horlogerie, a circular aperture at 6 o’clock on the dial allows one to gaze upon the equation cam, whose position portrays the universe in miniature. The small seconds hand also turns in the centre of this opening. The hand-sewn crocodile leather strap is fitted with a folding clasp in red gold.

Paying homage to the master watchmakers, designers and artisans who have contributed for the past 270 years to Blancpain’s acknowledged mastery of the watchmaking art, the Equation Marchante M.Y.S. is crafted in an exclusive limited series of seven pieces, each hand-engraved and personalized following the owner’s wishes.
