Watch Collection Guide

Latest Watches News Report: Play Table has not bankrupt, but also actually be able to appreciate the collection itself, which is the envy of many people. Watch collectors circles, this kind of thing a lot. But almost all say that the success of the collector, collecting watches is mainly fun, appreciation of the hedge is a by-product.  


Collection of watches is mainly fun, the appreciation of preservation is the by-products.

In 1983, in an internal auction, a part of the British Royal Air Force surplus of IWC, MarkXII, only 120 Swiss francs to buy time. Today, this price can easily turn the table 20 times. Another example, manual winding Rolex Daytona, then sell cold; but shall table with 1 million Swiss francs in the future appreciation of space. There are one example, in 1961, the courage to buy one out of 2,200 Swiss francs enamel dial Patek Philippe 2523 World Time Table, for many lovers, be dare. But in 1989, the watch auction record was 40 million Swiss francs, almost doubled 200 times.


But even the most successful bidders may also buy a poison, because when the auction price reaches a new high, it will be lower over time. Therefore, watch collectors, and real estate investors or Impressionist paintings, antique cars and furniture, as collectors, are likely to suffer the pain of devaluation risk.

Many people in the hands of the watch has a great appreciation of space. They said, "I bought the table, get the second hand market, a few minutes to double." But he began to buy the table, simply because they need to wear one had to admire the table. He bought a lot of tables, he became the brand of VIP, in the future he will have the opportunity to buy a valuable commodity in the table.

The iron law of supply and demand rules the market. Fortunately, other than watch a collection of excellent advantage is that you can wear at any time, it can accompany you to any corner of the world. Our advice is: try not to invest in the mentality of buying tables, which may have to wear them fun to buy. From this perspective, any fluctuations in the price you are easy to bear.

Watch you buy should suit your taste type (of course, your budget). Knowledge has never been affordable, but can help you find more and more rare bargain. The most important thing is to check the goods to attract your product phase, only those who take good care of the collections in the future can be successfully shot.


Due to mechanical watches, especially high-level mechanical watches in Switzerland, has long been the pursuit of slim elegance, and the senior men's watches and more used as a social accessory, so many tables did not waterproof and shockproof performance as the indicator of choice for the design and manufacture. This resulted in the collection area, a lot of people buy a watch collection-level tennis is worn on the hand or the sauna. Do not open the cover, hard to find the watch you sweat or rain has been soaking in the water stains left, will not be able to see the rough caused by the use of "swing point" of the injury.


After a long time, the dial may fade, darken or damage, which can be refurbished. However, purists would prefer to keep these shortcomings will be refurbished table excluded. Where is the ideal place to buy a collection of tables? Auction , second-hand watch shop (Beijing Court fine and good fortune when the watch shop) or antiques row. But no matter where the depth of the inspection is necessary. To auction, and auctions must be careful of any small pieces of text. Prestigious auction houses often issue a written certificate to ensure the purity of products. They also usually qualified watchmaker cooperation.

Why Enamel Paint Watch So Precious

Fashion Watch News Report: Enamel process is a very strict process: To make the best enamel effect, the dial needs the fire in the nearly 800 ° C high temperature firing 5 to 7 times; each craft will have to be glazed for up to 30 times , sintered, polished and polished; the enamel division can not drink coffee or tea, can not smoke any thing containing stimulants can not stick mouth.




Technology and the 15th century enamel has a close relationship Geneva, when the enamel technique is mainly used for jewelry, but with the rise of 17th century watchmaking industry, enamel technology has undergone a major change.


Vacheron Constantin is a small number of available enamel watch dial manufacturer. As the oldest, never stopped the production of watches and clocks manufacturer Vacheron Constantin in Geneva the previous succession passed down the most precious ancient process and, therefore, incumbent upon these rare "saving" technology heritage and carried forward. Enamel this material can not only meet the extremely rigorous process and achieve swatch results, and can stand the test of time, not oxidized, but also for the good of the dial design adds depth and luster. Entirely by hand, each dial are made according to traditional processes, each minor parts are flawless, only a few experts can make such a fine enamel effect. Enamel to make the best effect, need to dial the fire in the nearly 800 ° C high temperature firing 5 to 7 times. In order to prevent cracks in the heating process, must have added a layer of glazed enamel layer of the lower dial. In each of the firing process, these processes may lead to rupture, or even unexpected results emerged. Grand Feu enamel technique is brought Vacheron Constantin glory for centuries, through these new watch model, Vacheron Constantin once again show the world that culminated in process.


In 2004, Vacheron Constantin launched to commemorate the Portuguese explorer Ferdinand Magellan and the Chinese navigator Zheng He of the two watches. Enamel paint on the dial to the two explorers discovered area. Four years later, Vacheron Constantin, the world once again to the other two famous traveler - Marco - Polo and Christopher - Columbus tribute.




Normal enamel can not drink coffee or tea, of course, can not smoke in a word, any thing containing stimulants can not stick mouth. Hand must always remain swatch, and have full control of every action and accurate. This is the first lesson of every discipline enamel teacher's first lesson learned in the Code. Is well known that enamel process is one of the most demanding process, it is the most important discipline. Throughout history, or only the hand-painted medieval Europe, the draft lighting division skills in practice only when the enamel should be as strict division so as to comply with the rules. When the enamel Vacheron Constantin division to receive the memory of the famous explorer and launch Métiers d'Art Explorers series of instructions, they start to taper with a metal pen, only half a micron thick and 24 microns wide 22K metal, and outlined what he wanted to paint. Sometimes, he will groove with a carving knife in the crafts cut out some obvious groove, to accommodate set enamel.




Enamel Division in the production process will use a powerful amplification with binoculars, and then one by one or two made of mink oil sweep to the right on the dial on the enamel drops. Color used should follow a strict order of pre-set. Then, this craft will be put into a 700 to 800 ℃ of the kilns in the sintering. Cooling and then polished, and sometimes use the diamond to polish. Each have to make several crafts glazed, sintering, polished and polished, to do the dial up to 30 times each. Sintering time used in the light of the type and amount of enamel may be, and must bring Niede accurate, so enamel Carpenter often not easily tell others the sintering time. In the final stage, the enamel artisans will craft a layer of transparent coated with flux, and then into the kiln temperature of 900 ℃ burn once more. After cooling, the dial need to grind and polish after the last time before they handed over to watch assembly member assembly. Long and rigorous process of making really distracting, and enamel are also easily broken. When it left the kiln, in the cooling process may be due to sudden changes in temperature, fragmentation, and this will enamel division wasted countless hours spent before and efforts. Therefore, the process heat must be very slow, careful and regular manner.
