Founded by a father and son team in 1853, Tissot introduced the first mass-produced pocket watch during that same year. Tissot has steadily maintained their reputation as one of the most leading-edge watchmakers in the world, being the first company to make watches out of plastic, wood, rock and mother-of-pearl.

Tissot is always on the leading edge of technology and innovation. From sporty watches like the popular T-Touch collection to more elegant timepieces like the men’s Quadrato Chronograph and the racy PRC 100 Dainca Patrick Limited Edition watches, Tissot is always on point.

2009 is proving to be a good year for Tissot. They have launched a series of hot, new ads featuring brand spokeswoman Danica Patrick, a new Sea T-Touch watch and upgrading already successful designs. Take the recently released Limited Edition Heritage 2009 designs for example.

There are two versions within this new Heritage edition: an 18K rose gold model of which only 333 watches were produced and a stainless steel model of which 3,333 pieces were manufactured.

These new Limited Edition Heritage watches take their inspiration from the 1940’s. They are classically designed and matched with a brown crocodile strap; both versions are rich in elegance, especially the rose gold one. A 38mm face, set on a black dial, shows intricate gold markings; the even numbers are boldly marked.

Both versions are chronometers and were tested over many days, in many positions and within varying temperatures to make sure they can withstand the standards of quality that Tissot watches promise.

With these new Limited Edition Heritage watches, Tissot’s motto of “innovators by tradition” has added two more collectible timepieces to the world of luxury watches.

Omega Moon Watch

Omega watches are spectacular works of horologic art. Their most popular collection called the “Planet Ocean” has been featured in a variety of movies as well as on many celebrities’ wrists. The Planet Ocean is a diving watch that professionals use when scuba diving. It has an impressive water resistance up to 600 meters below sea-level. The rotating bezel allows divers to keep track of the amount of oxygen available to them at any given moment.

Omega also manufactures a mechanical watch designed for NASA space flight. The Omega Professional Moon Watch has a variety of features that distinguish it from any other timepiece. The mechanical movement does not feature a pendulum like ordinary automatic Omega watches. Scientists did not know how an automatic movement with a pendulum would respond to 0 gravity conditions. The special Hesalite crystal provides extreme protection for the most extreme conditions. After undergoing rigorous testing alongside competitor timepieces from Bulova, Rolex and Tag Heuer, Omega was bestowed with the privilege of being the first and only watch ever taken to the moon

Omega is also regarded highly by the official Olympic Committee. For this reason they the brand is the official time keeper for the Olympic Games. Omega has developed high-tech ways of measuring time for the special event. They have cameras that are synchronized to digital chronograph watches. By capturing high speed images of any event, omega can prove the precision of their time keeping instruments.

Whether is 600 meters below sea level, or on the moon, Omega Watches are incredible precision time-keeping instruments.

 Italian design and classical aesthetics have always been an inherent part of the Bvlgari Watch Company’s interpretation of beauty. The designer brand’s watches feature smooth chic lines that challenge visual conformity and are reminiscing of Italian renaissance. The luxury watch manufacturer employs the same creativity and passion when manufacturing designer timepieces as it does in its perfumes, jewelry, scarves and fashion accessories.

  BVLGARI BVLGARI Timepiece

  1) The flagship Bvlgari timepiece that launched Bvlgari’s debut in the international watch industry was the “Bvlgari Bvlgari.” This distinctively elegant timepiece was introduced in 1980 and quickly became an overnight international success.

  Bvlgari Grande Complication

The grand scale complexity of this timepiece’s movement features a day, date and leap year perpetual self-winding calendar. The tourbillion movement also has a 24 hour GMT function. The entire dial is transparent, which allows users to witness every single one of the tourbillion’s 26,600 vibrations per hour.

  Grande Complication

  3) Bvlgari Grande Complication BB40C6PLTB has an impressive movement that counteracts the forces of gravity which hinder a luxury watch’s precision. The movement is designed to transfer energy to different parts of its components to compensate for gravitational forces exerted on it. By dissipating the gravitational stress throughout different parts of its components, the movement ensures longer life and greater precision.

  Bvlgari Reserve De Marche

  4) The Bvlgari Masterpiece Reserve De Marche has an incredible 72 hour powers reserve in its caliber BVL131 movement. The masculinity and eloquent design of the watch is empowering. A convenient power reserve marker on the dial allows users to gauge the amount of energy stored in the movement. The extra thin profile of this precision time-keeping instrument is quite incredible considering the movement’s massiv power reserve and double barrel components.

  Bvlgari can truly be considered one of the most important players in the international luxury watch industry. The advancements this Swiss Manufacturer has given the world of fashion and horology have continuously pushed the limits of manufacturing, quality, aesthetic and precision standards.
