Audemars Piguet’s Royal Oak Concept “Black Panther” floating tourbillon watch
Marvel has always been a super hot big IP, even so, the launch of the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak concept series “Black Panther” floating tourbillon watch is still “a stone shocking a thousand waves”. This is Audemars Piguet’s first Marvel Super Hero series watch, choosing the popular hero Black Panther. Inspired by the Black Panther, the two iconic colours of black and purple were chosen, and the floating tourbillon of the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Concept series is a modern hand-painted and engraved representation of Marvel’s Black Panther heroes, made in white gold and brought to life. The carving and painting of the panther took a total of 30 hours by hand. The shapes in the 250 watches are decorated by a professional team of 4 engravers and 4 painters. Housed in a 42mm titanium case with a black ceramic bezel, the Calibre 2965 calibre is also reminiscent of the Panther’s cool cutting-edge clothing. This watch is only the beginning of the long-term cooperation between Audemars Piguet and Marvel, and you can look forward to more Audemars Piguet Marvel heroes in the future. The watch comes with a purple rubber strap and a black rubber strap and is limited to 250 pieces.
Omega Seamaster Series 300m Diver’s Watch “Tokyo 2020” Special Edition
As the 100-day countdown to the opening ceremony of the Tokyo Olympics, Omega has launched the Seamaster series 300m diver’s watch “Tokyo 2020” special edition. There is no doubt that the 2020 Tokyo Olympics will have a bad fate and several twists and turns. Although it was the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, it was actually held in 2021. As the official timekeeper, it is understandable that Omega launched related watches. I once talked to friends about the Tokyo Olympics and its related watches, and we agreed that the “Tokyo 2020” Olympic Special Edition is very commemorative and collectible, just like the wrong version of the yuan. The Omega Seamaster 300m diver’s watch “Tokyo 2020” Special Edition features a polished white ceramic dial with a polished blue ceramic bezel with white enamel diving scales, laser-engraved ripples and red “Seamaster” lettering, blue hands and hour markers. Inside the watch is the OMEGA 8800 Ultimate chronometer calibre with a power reserve of 55 hours, a transparent back and a Tokyo 2020 Olympic emblem on the caseback. The watch is equipped with a stainless steel bracelet and carries it in an Olympic special watch box, and the official price is 45,200 RMB.
BR V2-94 FULL LUM
The playful luminous Bell & Ross has launched a new watch that is destined to attract much attention – BR V2-94 FULL LUM. After the square watch, Bellace finally had a round watch with full luminescence, and it was a chronograph. The entire metal dial is coated with pale green Super-LumiNova C5, with openwork metal numerals, hour markers, hands and chronographs filled with pale yellow Super-LumiNova®® C3. In a clear environment, the watch presents a very fresh temperament, full of summer style, like mint. In the dark, the watch presents a cool look in the vintage. It is worth mentioning that the luminous material on the dial can absorb and emit light indefinitely, never affecting the function of the watch, and the light absorption is extremely fast and the luminosity is outstanding. In the luminous environment, the 30-minute timer and chronograph hands at 9 o’clock turn fluorescent blue, which is significantly different from the green luminous light in other parts, ensuring maximum legibility. The 41 mm diameter watch features a matte and polished stainless steel case, a self-winding movement and is water resistant to 100 metres. The watch comes in a black rubber strap and is limited to 250 pieces and has an official price of 37,200 RMB.
