Swiss Made Rolex Datejust Replica For Sale - Affordable Fake Watches ShopScheufele was given the opportunity to discuss a special project with me at the Historic Grand Prix of Monaco this summer. I tell him: "Since this is the tenth Anniversary of The Rake I would like to suggest a collaboration with Scheufele regarding the L.U.C 1860 watch that you launched in 1996. It was the first time you used your Calibre 1,96 which marked the beginning of your true horological philosophy." The watch's style has always been captivating to me, not only because it features what Walt Odets described at the time as "the finest automatic movement produced in Switzerland today". The 36.5mm dial is ideal for today's tastes, which are moving back towards vintage-style men's dress watch designs. The design of this watch is something I consider legendary. The 1860 is a perfect example of a round, original watch that has stood the test time. The bezel of the 1860 is elegant and thin. Metalem is one of Switzerland's best dial makers. Its gold dial with sunray guilloche features a stunning dial. Dauphine hands are a perfect match for the arrow-shaped markers. The watch is very similar to Philippe Dufour's Simplicity.Rolex Datejust Replica It was originally 36mm in diameter and had a similar Metalem dial. The only difference is the "automatic" wording on the sub-dial for seconds and the large date aperture. For me, Dufour's Simplicity was always the pinnacle of independent watchmaking artisanal craftsmanship while the 1860 is one of the most important achievements of modern horology. Scheufele owns a Simplicity and says, "That's a compliment, but I have to agree there is a spiritual connection between the watches." "My proposal," explained I, "is to make an additional 10 watches in my favorite colour combination, a white-gold case with a pink dial. If I had to make one change, it would be to have the date wheel in salmon. This will create a more cohesive look and help distinguish our limited edition. I turned to Scheufele and waited for his reaction.Rolex Daytona Replica Watches Then he smiled, nodded and said "I really like this idea." That was the start of the journey that led to the creation of the watch you can see. It's also a good time to thank Karl-Friedrich and Christine for the time we played with the idea to make the watch out of steel rather than white gold. This would require us to use a 40mm casing. She said, "If you want to pay homage to the 1997 watch then go all out." Do not cut corners. If the original watch size was 36,5mm, then you should make it 36.5mm. It seems that the world is returning to more classic dimensions. Or, at least, certain men of good taste."
