Architecture and Girard-Perregaux
The imposing Planetarium adopts a cosmic architecture in presenting – alongside the hours and minutes display – three cleverly crafted complications. The in-house tri-axial tourbillon, developed in 2014, performs its rotations in a lyre-shaped carriage, beneath a sapphire crystal dome. A second dome tops a globe motif miniature painted according to a depiction of the world in 1791, when the brand was founded. It turns in 24 hours, indicating on the dial side the zones where it is daytime, and on the back those where it is night-time. The third member of this trio is a high-precision moon phase based on 17th century cartography, after the invention of telescopes. The case provides a side view of the movement, while the back reveals a blackened mainplate enhanced by the emblematic Girard-Perregaux gold bridges.
Sculpture and Piaget
To adorn the new Altiplano Double Jeu, a creation composed of two superimposed cases, Piaget has called upon Sara Bran and the brand new artistic craft she has invented: gold lacework. The artist uses the manual drilling technique with a tiny hacksaw to create lace motifs sculpted like the finest fabrics. To achieve this, she draws using a compass and dividers, drills with various drill bits and cuts out using saw blades. The upper module of the Altiplano Double Jeu Gold Lacework features a radiating decor lit up with marquise-cut diamonds. Pressing the dedicated pusher raises the cover to reveal a a full view of a deliberately minimalist dial, immaculate white like the matching alligator leather strap.
Paiting and Cartier
In the Cartier collection, flamed gold has joined the repertoire of artistic crafts exercised in watchmaking. The gold dial is adorned with a painting that is flame-colored at various temperatures. Working from the lowest to the highest serves to create beige, various tawny shades and then blue, it takes a great deal of meticulous care to master colors that evolve with each firing. The in-house artisans meticulously create a strikingly natural panther’s head, graced with the luminosity of enamel and the precision of miniature painting. It adorns a generously sized Ronde Louis Cartier XL watch set with diamonds on the bezel, crown and folding clasp.
Music and Vacheron Constantin
This complex mechanical feat relies on a module that was designed solely for Van Cleef & Arpels which goes over a foundation Swiss automatic movement which has 40 hours of power reserve. All this so that some lucky collectors have the ability to enjoy this French “aerial ballet” on the Van Cleef & Arpels Lady Arpels Ronde des Papillons watch dial.The Van Cleef & Arpels Lady Arpels Ronde des Papillons is not a limited edition watch, but instead produced as part of their “permanent collection” in smallish quantities as a numbered series. Museum-quality and emotionally charged, this is the specific type of watch I love to see being created for female watch lovers, even if it is far removed from the normal Rolex or Cartier timepieces which exist as a whole lot more prevalent (and reachable) typical luxury watches for women. Van Cleef & Arpels prefers the “price on request” method of explaining the subject of cost, as these timepieces are usually in the several-hundred-thousand-dollar range.With the enormous number of new timepieces we’re presented with at our annual pilgrimage to SIHH, it is inevitable that we will miss obtaining information on a number of them to our readers in a timely manner. In this case, within a year has passed since we had been first introduced to the Van Cleef & Arpels Heure d’Ici & Heure d’Ailleurs, true we were reminded of when we saw it again while seeing VC&A in Geneva.
The Traditionnelle collection by Vacheron Constantin welcomes a new in-house movement combining a tourbillon – featuring an emblematic carriage shaped like a Maltese cross and a spring-bar requiring 11 hours of polishing – with a minute repeater that chimes the hours, quarters and minutes on demand. The “Music of Time” resonator delivered with the watch serves to amplify the sounds produced by the perfectly adjusted gongs. This Traditionnelle in platinum or in pink gold – the latter version being reserved for the brand boutiques – is distinguished by an exclusive guilloché motif hand-crafted on the dials. It also features the original characteristic of displaying the power reserve on the back, by means of a blackened gold hand.
Dance and Van Cleef & Arpels
Van Cleef & Arpels sends a butterfly dancing through Nature EnchantéeTM collection with its Lady Arpels Butterfly Automate. While the hours and minutes sweep by on a small offset dial, the butterfly flutters its wings at random intervals, and one or four times in a row according to the power reserve. The occurs every two to four minutes when the watch is off the wrist, and more often when it is worn. The show can also be performed on demand by pressing a pusher and is all the more delightful in that it takes place amid a stunning three-dimensional decor crafted by the in-house artisans. Among other subtle details, the curving plique-à-jour enamel leaves were created using a new technique specially developed for the occasion.
Created en 1949, the Pierre Arpels watch has epitomized Van Cleef & Arpels’ vision of masculinity. A perfect blend of sophistication and understatement, it is notable for an exceptionally thin case held by two unobtrusive central attachments.
Seit den späten 60er Jahren, als SEIKO seine Fähigkeiten in der mechanischen Uhrmacherkunst bei den Wettbewerben in Genf und Neuchatel mit der höchsten Punktzahl erreichte, hat SEIKO seine Fähigkeiten in der Uhrmacherei perfektioniert und einen stetigen Strom immer fortschrittlicherer und perfekterer Bewegungen geschaffen. Jede mechanische Uhr von Ananta zu sehen und zu fühlen , ist die Erkenntnis, dass es sich um eine völlig authentische Prestige-Uhr im Mainstream der Uhrmacherei handelt. SEIKOs Ansatz zur mechanischen Uhrmacherei ist jedoch einzigartig. Unsere Bewegungsdesigner haben immer versucht, den Kunden zu befriedigen, der eine "Uhr für das Leben" sucht. Überdimensionierung wird zugunsten einer tiefgreifenden Qualität und technischen Eleganz vermieden, die die Präzision, Langlebigkeit und Leistung der Uhr erhöht. 
I have been following the progress of Seiko dive watches for some time now. I have in my collection quite a number of Seiko divers (you can view them here: http://easternwatch.blogspot.co.id/p/blog-page_4.html). However, it is one model of Seiko diver that I have not been able to get, the 6105, or more affectionately known as the "Turtle Diver".
