One Kickstarter Project Certainly Thinks So

Once again, it seems that Ariel’s theory (here) that we are on the way to a consumer-grade smart watch is well on-track to being proven true. While this latest Kickstarter project doesn’t hit all of the points he made, it is advancing us further along the path.

The new HOT Watch (yeah, a goofy name, but it ostensibly stands for “Hands On Talk” – more on that in a minute) is from a Dallas firm we’ve never heard of before – PH Technical Labs. As you might guess from the name, http://www.je-montre.com/tag-heuer-c-43.html this is a company that’s no stranger to electronics, but this is their first watch as far as I can tell. Fortunately, this is one of the nicer-looking watches we’ve seen in the segment, no doubt helped by the design work of Michael Foley (another name I’ve never heard of, and couldn’t turn up any info). One surprising bit of the design is how thin the watch is. Coming in at only 8mm thick, this should make for a very compact watch (hopefully battery life isn’t lost in that tradeoff – estimated standby life is 3 days).

One of the more intriguing things about this watch is its use of built-in gestures (relying on the accelerometer and gyroscope in the case). The star of this show, though, is the fact that this watch can do something that is being labeled as “private calling”. In short, when you receive a call, you raise your hand to your ear, and the phone picks up and you talk away. This is courtesy a speaker (and microphone) that live on the underside of the strap, enabling the sound to be amplified by your cupped hand (kind of like putting a phone in an empty water glass). Hopefully it doesn’t add much bulk while you’re pretending to be Dick Tracy or Michael Knight (via the Knight Rider).

Inherently, that definitely has some “wow” factor, that’s for sure. That said, I certainly wouldn’t want to have my hand to my head for a lengthy call. I picture something like this being handy for a quick call to home or the office, or perhaps for a private chat on a mass transit commute where you could prop your arm up. Regardless of the situation, it would be fun to try out. Oh, and then when you’re done talking? You can simply wave bye-bye (yes, literally wave your hand) and the call will be hung up. I don’t know about you, but I’d feel pretty foolish waving at nothing (especially after people saw you talking to your hand). Fortunately, you can also dismiss the call utilizing the multi-touch capable e-ink screen.

The HOT Watch also has a few other capabilities built in that I’m surprised no other smart watch has taken advantage of (at least, out of the box – no telling what 3rd-party developers may come up with). The first calls to mind a commercial that it seems I saw constantly during summer reruns growing up – the one for the LifeAlert bracelet. You know the one – “Help, I’ve fallen, and I can’t get up!” In that same vein, the HOT Watch can detect when you’ve fallen and, after a set amount of time, fire off a text message to a designated emergency contact.

TAG Heuer Link Calibre 18 Watch: Mid-Size Chronograph

Need another flavor of TAG Heuer Link? The newest chronograph version of the iconic collection will be this Link Calibre 18 watch – a new Link with a new movement for TAG Heuer. https://www.choopopwatches.co/product-category/tag-heuer/ The Swiss brand revamped the Link collection with an updated case and bracelet back in 2011. Since that release we aren’t aware of too many new Link models until now with the Calibre 18. So what is new? TAG Heuer adds to the three register Link Calibre 16 chronograph with this two register model. The Calibre 18 automatic movement is a base Sellita SW300 (ETA 2892 analog) with a chronograph module produced by Dubois-Depraz.

The Calibre 18 is very similar to the Calibre 12 movements (found in Monaco collection pieces for example). Unlike the larger Link Calibre 16 watches (with base 7750 movements) that are 43mm wide, the Calibre 18 watches are 40mm wide, and considered slim at 14.4mm thick. That isn’t slim per se, but “slimmer” for a chronograph watch. These new mid-sized Link models feature fresh dials and fit into the popular bi-compax (two register) chronograph look that many brands are gravitating toward.

TAG Heuer will offer the Link Calibre 18 in both a black dialed (ref. CAT2110) model and a silvered dialed (ref. CAT2111) version. In a big way you can see these mid-range two register chronographs as being more affordable versions of TAG Heuer’s ultimate two register chronograph movement, the Calibre 36, which you can find in some high-end Carrera models and is essentially a Zenith El Primero high-beat chronograph. Prices for those starts at 7,500 Swiss Francs, while you can get a Link Calibre 18 for 4,900 Swiss Francs soon.

Chanel Announces J12 Moonphase 38MM Watch

The last really new J12 from Chanel was the Chromatic that aBlogtoWatch debuted to the world here. Back in 2011 when Chanel released the Chromatic it upped the ante for Chanel's "ownership" of ceramic as a luxury material with a new metallic gray material that mixed ceramic with titanium. Chanel really started its own ceramic revolution with the original J12 watch about a decade ago. In black or white, it was anything but a polarizing design as the J12 is still beloved by many.http://www.watchesyoo.net/tag-heuer-watches-replicas-100.html Having said that - even though I think the J12 is a nice men's watch - it was women who found it the most interesting.

Now, in late 2013 Chanel adds a new character to the J12 collection with the J12 Moonphase. The added moon phase complication is being debuted in a range of models that span from a classic white J12, to a Chromatic model, and even a totally jewel encrusted limited edition model (actually two of them). Though for now, the J12 Moonphase will be available exclusively in the 38mm wide size. Let's take a look at the new J12 Moonphase which offers a bit more than just a new complication.

Chanel produced a very lovely video to go with the launch of the J12 Moonphase collection. Unfortunately, it has very little to do with phases of the moon. Chanel is first and foremost a fashion company and they full-well know that moon phase complications are more emotional than practical. I usually don't like "hand style" versus "disc style" moon phase indicators, but Chanel did a lot here to make their moon phase indicator dial very beautiful, and easy to read. Borrowing from a number of classic timepieces, they use a serpentine-style hand against an aventurine dial. Aventurine is a sparkly blue stone that does a good job of mimicking the night sky. I was happy to see it used here and feel that it was a smart and high-class aesthetic choice for Chanel.

Though this does open up an interesting question. Why produce a new collection of ladies' watches that focuses on a complication? Over the last few years - especially high-end watch makers - have been pushing the idea that more and more women are interested in horology versus strictly fashion and aesthetics. While there are many very passionate female watch lovers, it hasn't been my experience that a lot of women are too concerned with complications. So I find it interesting that Chanel sees a lot of potential marketing what is essentially an astronomical complication-focused product.

Though if you absolutely had to go with a complication (aside from the time and date) that reside in a high-end fashion-oriented timepieces for mainly women, I think a moon phase indicator is a clever choice. It is an emotional complication helping to understand the phases of the moon - which in turn controls everything from tides to perhaps tempers. What is further interesting is how the inclusion of the moon phase dial altered the iconic look of the J12 dial. This is very much a fresh face if you look at the details.

First of all, on the dial you have a new shorter seconds hand that tracks the inner scale and follows the hour hand rather than the minute hand. This of course is done to keep it separate from the pointer date hand. Chanel uses a hand rather than window to indicate the date, which again is new for the series and borrowed from more traditional watches. Another interesting change is to the bezel. No longer a rotating bezel, the now fixed bezel is thinner with either simple baton markers... or of course diamonds.

Zenith El Primero 410 Limited Edition Calendar Chronograph Watch

Hot on the heels of the incredibly cool El Primero Lightweight, Zenith has launched another limited edition El Primero, dubbed the 410 LE. The 410 is based on a very rare vintage El Primero model from the 70's that looked almost identical, save for the original model's smaller 38mm case. https://www.repwatchesguy.is/tag-heuer.html You can see an example here, said to be 1 of 25, sold by Christie's in 2012. Sporting a couple of updates, the new El Primero sticks with the vintage formula and offers an homage to a hard-to-find and rather desirable piece from Zenith's past.

Based around a 42mm case, the El Primero 410 is a textbook nod to a successful design from the early 70's. On this modern version, the sub dials appear a bit smaller, but that could be attributed to the larger dial. The dial remains a slate grey, with updated hour markers and a cleaner use of dial text. There is a date display between four and five, as well as day and month apertures above the sub dials at three and nine. Joining the calendar, a moon phase display is incorporated into the six o'clock (12 hour) chronograph sub dial.

The layout is nearly identical to the legacy model, even down to the star emblems placed next to the calendar displays. The dial is finished with a red chrono seconds hand that trades the lume block of the vintage piece for a Zenith star counterbalance that is more in keeping with their current designs. The 410 LE is a great looking reference to Zenith's heritage and I think they've selected an excellent design that blends the sporty El Primero chronograph aesthetic with a traditional feature set like the full calendar and moon phase.

Supporting these features is the El Primero 410 automatic chronograph movement with 31 jewels, 390 components and a power reserve of 50 hours. Visibile through a sapphire display back, the 410 beats at 36,000 vph, a rate that has become a signature of Zenith's El Primero line. The 410 LE also features a sapphire crystal with a dual side anti-reflective treatment and water resistance of 100m. I have always enjoyed Zenith's ornate but functional sense of style and the 410 LE is a good example of this duality.


repwatchesguy.is always offers top quality swiss luxury brand replica watches for you. Both Mens and ladies High quality replica  watches,including replica Tag heuer watches,Replica tag heuer formula 1 watches,replica Breitling watches,replica Rolex watches,replica Omega watches etc.

The 410 LE has a very busy dial showing a variety of information that is offered in a manner that is both legible and functional. From the large time display to the chronograph sub dials, the features are meant to be enjoyed as a detailed whole but the user can quickly segment each feature for its intended use. I generally prefer simple and highly functional designs, so I have to hand it to Zenith as they often balance a functional display along with the inclusion of complex and eye catching elements and finishing.
