Three of the most fascinating contemporary watches
In a continuous quest for innovation, uniqueness and precision, today’s watches are anything but ordinary. These modern timepieces are impressively complex, functional and imaginatively designed. Their purpose isn’t to simply tell time, but to be spectacular instruments that serve both as fashion accessories and as highly useful devices. Below we offer a very interesting selection of three of the most fascinating contemporary watches.
The Tag Heuer Mikrogirder 10000
The Tag Heuer Mikrogirder 10000 is the stylish, precise and simple to use timepiece that has revolutionized the entire watch industry. Its dramatic design, excellent choice of materials and sophisticated functions have turned it into one of the most fashionable and popular models around. This fast and efficient instrument challenges our limits by reducing isochronous error and being impervious to gravity. Out of its numerous notable accomplishments we should mention that it can precisely measure time to a phenomenal 5/10,000th of a second. The functional assets of the Tag Heuer Mikrogirder 10000 are matched only by its aesthetic qualities which include an industrial anthracite dial with a light grey and silver outer ring split into five time zones, distinctively designed and disposed counters, and a sleek black case with matching black crocodile strap.
The U-Boat Chimera
If creative innovation, contemporary style and adventurous spirit are the main qualities you appreciate in a watch then the new U-Boat Chimera is probably the best choice for you. With a distinctive design and a powerful identity, this timepiece offers an impressive set of functional qualities that recommend it for modern men with a fine taste for military inspired watches. The though appearance of the Chimera is recreated by constructing a rugged 43 mm burnished steel case with bronze screws, lugs and winding crown. The dial is dark brown and features large bronze hour markers and thick hands. At 3 o’clock there is a small date window and the brand’s name is written in over-sized white letters. The most important innovation presented by this model is the patented system for retrieval of the watch crown. Located on the left side of the case, the extra-large crown comes with a very prominent guard and pusher that can be depressed to eject the inner-crown from its recessed position. By pushing it once you can set the date and by pushing it twice you can set the time.
The Hublot Aerofusion Titanium
A fusion of forms, functions and materials, the Hublot Aerofusion Titanium is a complex timepiece with a very unique personality. Its rugged polished and satin-finished Titanium case measures 45 mm in diameter and is matched by a vertical satin-finished Titanium bezel fixed with 6 H-shaped Titanium Screws. The core beauty of this model consists of the skeletonized sapphire dial which reveals its intricate inner workings. The combination of dark and light grey parts is designed to construct a beautiful and fascinating dial that exudes elegance and sophistication through its classy silver hour markers, prominent hands, easy to read sub-dials, and date window. Powered by a HUB 1155 self-winding movement, the Aerofusion Titanium is the groundbreaking skeleton watch that fires up your imagination with superior precision and a brilliant design.
