Introducing The TAG Heuer Replica Carrera CH80, TAG’s New In-House Chronograph Movement Finds Its First Home

Published November 26, 2015 / by avant1replicawatches

With the introduction of Calibre 1969 a few months ago, TAG Heuer replica demonstrated its renewed commitment to producing in-house chronograph movements. At Baselworld, the calibre received a new moniker – “CH 80” – a nod to the automatic chronograph’s 80-hour power reserve. In addition to a slick new name, the movement finally found a home inside the new Carrera 41mm, a stainless-steel, three-register chrono imbued with the good looks of the 1960s classic without being a vintage clone. Oh, and it’s under $6,000. It’s a good move from the racing specialists who clearly continue to take their TAG Heuer replica watch very seriously.


Notably, TAG Heuer replica expects to double production capacity from 50,000 in-house chronograph movements last year to 100,000 in 2016. To facilitate the production, TAG Heuer replica has invested CHF 40 million in a new manufacturing facility in Chevenez, Switzerland, supplementing its existing workshop at La Chaux-de-Fonds. In an effort to be more vertically integrated, the company has also acquired case-maker Cortech and dial-maker Artecad to bring production of more TAG Heuer replica watch components in-house.


In selecting the iconic Carrera for inspiration, TAG Heuer replica demonstrates a deft and conscious approach to bringing proven designs through to a new model. The case size in particular, at 41mm, is a wise choice. Overall case design remains the same as other TAG Heuer replica Carreras, with angular lugs extending from the case with architectural grace. The thinner movement is complemented by a thinner case overall that sits comfortably on the wrist.


Good balance TAG Heuer replica watch is achieved on the dial via a 3-6-9 configuration for the minutes, seconds, and hour-registers respectively. On the dial, you’ll also see a date aperture between 4 and 5 o’clock. The dial is available in two colors: black with white sub-registers and a “panda” version with white dial and black sub dials. The latter looks particularly crisp, with TAG Heuer replica watch a bright red seconds hand adding some color to the bright white dial.


Otherwise, TAG Heuer replica watch the finishing on the dial is clean. Brushed and polished Rhodium indices surround the black dial, while black indices with the same surface treatment look particularly bold against against white. The fine scale surrounding the dial measures down to a 1/5th of a second and is colored in red for the first 15-second portion. In this TAG Heuer replica watch case, the instance of red complements the center chronograph hand as it moves around the dial.

Inspired by replica Omega the lunar dust that captured mankind’s first and last steps on the Moon, this model is crafted from white ceramic that has been transformed to a shimmering metallic grey. The 44.25mm white case material is subjected to 20,000 degrees Celsius for replica Omega three hours in the plasma heating chamber, which containing different gases, which causes it to turn grey. The case, caseback, bezel, crown, pushers and buckle are all  replica Omega crafted from the same ceramic material.

Omega Speedmaster Grey Side of the Moon

OMEGA’s new Speedmaster “Grey Side of the replica Omega Moon”, bearing reference number 311.93.44.51.99.001, is hitting stores soon. This piece is a follow-on to 2013’s highly-demanded Speedmaster “Dark Side of the Moon”, and while it shares some similarities, it also features several design elements that distinguish it from any other model the brand has ever introduced, such as grey ceramic case, luminous ceramic bezel, and a sand-blasted platinum dial.

The replica Omega sand-blasted 950 platinum dial gives the Speedmaster “Grey Side of the Moon” looks absolutely killer and underscores the craftsmanship that went into creating the Omega replica watch. Two integrated platinum sub-dials distinguish the timepiece from its legendary predecessor, OMEGA’s “Moonwatch”; the 12-hour and 60-minute counters on the same sub-dial at the 3 o’clock position, while the sub at 9 o’clock is the small running seconds. The red-tipped, center-set seconds hand is for the chronograph. Look closely and you will also see a small “Pt 950” notation just above the center hands on the dial.

Though not pictured, engraved on the caseback is the name of the Omega replica watch: “GREY SIDE OF THE MOON”. The Speedmaster “Grey Side of the Moon”replica Omega  is presented on a grey leather strap and has a rubber insert with holes on the area where the buckle is fastened for added durability. You can see also on the underside of the strap there is red stitching that complements the red accents on the replica Omega Co-Axial calibre 9300 visible through the sapphire crystal caseback. The Cal 9300 is a co-axial chronograph movement with a silicon balance spring.

While it does not carry the gravitas of the original “Moonwatches”, but as for me well I love the modern look and replica Omega modern technology of both the “Dark Side” and “Grey Side” of the moon. The Omega replica watch comes in a special presentation box, and I’d guess that it will be every bit as popular as the Dark Side of the Moon…and the same price, too: $12,000.

An Replica Omega Speedmaster 50th Anniversary Prototype

Published November 23, 2015 / by avant1replicawatches

In 2005 I bought Omega Speedmaster with with a white dial, Ref.No: DD145.0022 with a OMEGA 861 movement, Year of manufacture 1984. I wrote to Omega Switzerland to request some additional information about this best replica watch.

White Speedy
So I remained with the mystery why someone would replace original parts like a dial, pushers and crown on a best cheap replica watch that appeared in an otherwise perfect condition. There was little I could do so I stopped searching for answers and hoped that the future might bring something.

During this diner, 8 persons were there, 4 Omega replica watches Vice Presidents, two big collectors, Mr.Richon and myself. I gave my cherished Speedy to Mr.Richon and he was surprised to see it with this dial as well, so he passes it to the next expert at the table. While the cheap replica watch was slowly circulating around the table, I noticed that Mr.Richon was wearing a strange watch himself. A Speedmaster Professional in all its glory but with a date. And it wasn’t the Holy Grail Speedmaster, but a normal looking Speedmaster Pro 3570.50 but with a date aperture at 4.30.
However, I could not let the prototype go out of my hands. It was stunning. Mr Richon noticed this and asked if I would like to trade this prototype watch for my white dial Speedmaster. Next morning I flew back to Croatia and the first thing I did when I arrived home was to take a look a closer look at the watch.

Update, we received the following photo from Tom Koerts, swiss fake watch enthusiast from The Netherlands who discovered a similar Omega Speedmaster Pro on the wrist of one of the watchmakers at Blancpain. This probably means that there are more prototypes of this model around.
