In a white gold case, the mainplate is sanded and the openworked barrel drum opens onto the micro-rotor. The new fine features of the Girard-Perregaux Tourbillon with three gold Bridges underscore this architecture over which time has no command.

Born in the hands of Constant Girard-Perregaux in the nineteenth century, the three Bridges movement is a revolution in the history of Fine UK Omega Replica Watchmaking. With it, the mechanism becomes a design feature in its own right, extending beyond a solely technical function. The Tourbillon with three gold Bridges won supreme recognition in the form of a gold medal at the Paris International Exhibition in 1889 for bringing together all the know-how of Girard-Perregaux with an entire chapter of watchmaking history.

Within a 41 millimeter diameter, the three, arrow-shaped parallel Bridges form the perfect balance. Their geometry allows for no mistakes as any imperfection would be revealed. Entirely hand-made, the finishings require such dexterity that they can only be done by a handful of craftsmen. The Bridges are “rounded-off”: the chamfering gives them a domed shape, along their entire length, a perfect curve. Light glides and reflects off their “mirror polish” finishing, offering a captivating contrast with the matt mainplate.

At 12 o’clock, the barrel drum is skeleton-crafted to reveal the oscillation of the platinum microrotor. The tourbillon system’s 80 components need to be assembled in a 10 millimeter diameter. The cage, like the escapement and pallets bridge are chamfered and hand-polished as are the gold adjustment screws.

The Tourbillon with three gold Bridges is fitted with the GP09600-0024 self-winding movement, which is entirely designed and assembled in the Manufacture’s workshops.

A pink gold version is also available.

Launched in 2011, the Dior VIII watch collection celebrates the ‘lucky number’ of the Omega Replica Watches designer who founded the firm on October 8th 1946 in the 8th arrondissement of Paris and named his first haute couture collection “En Huit”. The ceramic bracelets feature pyramids-shaped links evoking the sculptural lines of the “Bar” suit jacket that heralded the famous New Look, or the cannage (wicker-chair) topstitching of the Lady Dior handbag launched in 1994.  The dials of the Dior VIII Replica Watches UK display just one numeral, the VIII, except… when they join the dance in the Grand Bal de Dior Inversé: an 8 1/4’’’ or 11 ½’’’ movement exclusively developed by Les Ateliers Horlogers Dior, Soprod and Frédéric Jouvenot. In these calibres, the oscillating weight – while remaining entirely functional in terms of winding the movement – is placed on top of the dial rather than beneath it so as to reproduce the twirling glory of a ball gown.

The creations are interpreted in Plissées versions with opal or jade marquetry skirts, in Broderies, Plumetis, Dentelles or Résilles versions, featuring openworked skirts or in Plume variations featuring skirts adorned with genuine white or fawn-coloured feathers. In addition to these interpretations generally issued in 88-piece limited editions, the collection also includes several one-of-a-kind creations playing on the radiance created by stones arranged in subtly graded shades , as well as the effect of two ceramic or lizard skin wristbands. The N°8 thus appears with a white gold and black ceramic case, a bezel set with baguette-cut sapphires, a blue-tinted titanium dial paved with snow-set sapphires, and a white gold oscillating weight enhanced with opals, turquoises, azurites, chrysocollae, sapphires and Paraiba tourmalines.

In parallel, Dior also offers women exceptional models powered by variations of the famous Elite calibre created in 1994 by the Manufacture Zenith. As a sister brand within the LVMH group, it enjoys access to these ultra-thin movements renowned for their precision and reliability. The hand-wound Elite 631 movement driving the D de Dior models combine a masculine appearance featuring 1970s-inpsired round cases with a jewellery spirit expressed through dials that are snow-set or adorned with ornamental stones. The self-winding 671 and 681 calibres, respectively with and without seconds hands, are reserved for the Dior Grand Soir collection and its one-of-a-kind models each bearing a distinctive tribute to the heritage of the Maison. The latest newcomer, N°20, combines a bezel set with baguette-cut yellow sapphires and an engraved dial embellished with mother-of-pearl and diamonds, while the back provides a view of its openworked oscillating weight and its floral motif matching that on the face. To ensure a variety of pleasures and accentuate the haute couture character of this creation, Dior delivers it with three straps in pleated or smooth grey taffeta or purple alligator leather.

This range of ultra-feminine models pay tribute to the elegance and refinement that the House of Dior has established as the supreme values governing all its creations, whether in the fields of horology or couture. Click on the large image on top of the page to open the photo-gallery and enjoy!
