According to Jacob & Co., allotted time doesn’t fly, it floats
For the first time in Geneva, the master designers at Jacob & Co. have created an ingenious interpretation of a classic regulator complication, subverting some of the rules of the method in the most striking way.
To keep it simple, a "regulator" is a method of timekeeping (starting with clocks and pocket watches) that separates the functions of hours, minutes, and seconds and displays each function on a separate face on a watch dial.
In fact, due to their inherent accuracy, regulator clocks are often used as real-time references by watchmaking shops, even if they do not produce regulator copy luxury watches themselves.
However, transforming this ancient complication into a luxurious floating power work of art is beyond the reach of ordinary watch brands. No, that’s the job of a brand as eclectic and undisputedly technical as Jacob & Co.

Again, to keep it simple, the new Jacob & Co. Astronomia Régulateur is a 43mm 18k rose gold regulator watch. But, given the house's innovative and decorative tendencies, the "simple" part of its description ends here, as there is much more to the story.
Its floating 3D architecture and signature visual appeal—from component finishes to the vibrant blue and its red and gold colorways—are just the beginning of the extras the Astronomia Régulateur brings to the party. replica Tudor Black Bay
The oversized sapphire faceplate is domed along the top (of course) and curves along the sides of the 18mm-thick case, held in place by the gleaming frame of the red gold case (which features a downward-sloping top flange and an open structure lugs). Think of it like a museum case; it allows you to observe the watch itself.
Still, like all Jacob & Co. timepieces, the Astronomia Régulateur demands closer inspection, a look that reveals some impressive horological innovations to match the clever decoration.
replica replica RM 27-05 Rafael Nadal
Richard Mille RM 27-05 Flying Tourbillon Rafael Nadal. 11.5 grams without strap.
In 2010, the Richard Mille RM 027 Tourbillon was born to meet a challenge. It marked the beginning of an exciting adventure, a quest for extraordinary lightness and performance. The Richard Mille legend finally culminates with the RM 27-05 Flying Tourbillon Rafael Nadal. This limited edition of just 80 pieces weighs 11.5 grams without strap and can withstand 14,000G, twice the force of a manual-wound tourbillon.
The RM 27-05 Flying Tourbillon Rafael Nadal project began in 2019, but its story goes back a long way. The watch is the result of a meeting that has since led to a deep friendship. Since then, Rafael Nadal has won one victory after another wearing a Mille replica watches for sale.
The RM 27-05 project was designed with the goal of reducing weight, and the result has an impressive technical data sheet. The movement has a power reserve of 55 hours and is equipped with a flying tourbillon that oscillates at a frequency of 3 Hz. Its PVD-treated titanium baseplate is carefully skeletonized and hand-finished, even the hidden parts. The bridges are also made of grade 5 titanium and carbon fiber TPT, making it even lighter. The movement is 3.75 mm thick and weighs only 3.79 grams.
It took 4,000 hours to design the movement and case. We certainly didn't skimp on time when creating the RM 27-05 Rafael Nadal Flying Tourbillon. While its austere temperament does mark a return to the collection's roots, rethinking watchmaking has been the main theme at every stage of its development. Here, the movement is fixed to the case without the use of any screws. The entire mechanism is housed within a one-piece caseback/caseside unit, which is then topped by the flange and bezel. The entire assembly presses onto the movement, holding it firmly in place. One of the great strengths of this replica watches price is the quality of its new composite material, Carbon TPT B.4, which took us five years to develop with our Swiss partner North Thin Ply Technology NTPT. Carbon TPT B.4 is an optimized anisotropic material that allows the case to be machined into thinner cross-sections. Compared to earlier Carbon TPT, the new composite material is 4% denser, the fibers 15% stiffer, and the resin 30% stronger.
The RM 27-05 project was designed with the goal of reducing weight, and the result is an impressive technical data sheet. The movement has a power reserve of 55 hours and is equipped with a flying tourbillon oscillating at a frequency of 3 Hz. Its PVD-treated titanium baseplate is optimally skeletonized and hand-finished, even for the hidden components. The bridges are also made of grade 5 titanium and Carbon TPT, making them even lighter.
The movement is made of titanium and Carbon TPT, giving the entire assembly extreme rigidity, as well as the precise surface flatness necessary for the perfect functioning of the gear train. This ultra-thin and ultra-light movement, with a total weight of 3.79 grams and a thickness of 3.75 mm, has been individually and extensively validated to ensure that it meets stringent requirements for optimal strength. replica MB&F LEGACY MACHINES Watches
For optimal strength, Carbon TPT B.4 is woven in a specific 70-degree inter-layer orientation stack. The choice of this material ensures that the watch's powerful structure has optimal proportions, weight, performance and rigidity. This made it possible to follow the weaving of Carbon TPT B.4 to form an X-shaped ridge on the back of the case where the movement is located. Comprehensive simulations of the entirety, including the case, revealed that the movement rests on six support points, 5/100 of a millimeter from the back of the case, which contributes to the rigidity of the watch.
This X-shaped pattern is visually reflected throughout the case, while ensuring that the bezel, flange and integrated case back retain their characteristics in any situation. Thanks to a bold and unique innovation, every gram of the RM 27-05 Flying Tourbillon Rafael Nadal adds value to this incomparable watch. The weight of time takes on a new dimension.
