SIHH 2018: roger dubuis replica's New Altiplano Concept — The Thinnest Mechanical Handwinding Watch in the World

The Altiplano Ultimate Concept's basic idea is to create the movement plate and case together. This was first done in the Altiplano 900P Ultimate Automatic. Next, we worked from there to find other ways to make the movement thinner.

This watch is unique because it was made from a super-rigid, robust and durable cobalt-based alloy. It's known for its hardness, which allows the watch to keep its shape despite its extremely slim profile. This is crucial for a watch that has newly designed wheels measuring 0.12mm thick, compared to 0.20mm on traditional movements. Otherwise they will not rotate properly.

Roger Dubuis replica has added to this rigid case by using a crystal measuring 0.2mm thick. This is one fifth the thickness of a normal watch but still adheres to modern standards of shock and water resistance of at least 30 meters.

We also notice the recessed crown that is visible outside the watch.roger dubuis replica It allows for selective control of time-setting, winding, and other functions. (Seen at the 3:00 o'clock position). The worm screw replaces the sliding pinion. This drives a toothed wheel, and pinion in the same spot as the rotation access. This allows for a compact arrangement of the gears.

We move on to the movement and see the completely redesigned structure of the regulating organ. This is in contrast to the standard arrangement found on a watch. The balance spring is now visible from the watch's front.Breitling Replica Watches It is not reversed as it is normally. Instead, it is seen above the balance wheel. This structure is capable of reducing the thickness of the regulating organ.

Finally, at 6 o'clock, you will find a new barrel. It has no cover or drum, which reduces the watch's parts count. Instead, the mainspring, which is ball-bearing-mounted, is attached directly to the frame (case/movement plates), and transmits its energy from the center of the barrel with the ratchet wheel and core of barrel arbor (both in one-piece), before closing it off at top. This construction method allows for a decrease in thickness and a decently long 44-hour battery life.

If it wasn't obvious from the name, the roger Dubuis replica Altiplano Ultimate Concept watch is not a production model. It is more of a showcase of what the maison is capable of achieving. It has shown the technical possibilities that are possible,replica breitling watches and what will be possible in the future.

One wonders if roger dubuis replica has reached the end of the ultra-thin game. If so, if there are more millimeters to be cut. This watch, regardless of the case, has clearly drawn a line in sand and beckoned its competitors to take it on. It will be difficult to follow, regardless of whether it is possible.
