ORA Swiss Watch Company Ora#2

By TLex It's always a pleasure to see someone doing something different with a dive watch. The Ora#2 is the first divers model to come from this young artisan watch brand, who are based in Locarno on the Italian boarder in Southern Switzerland. The Ora#2 is a 300m divers watch with a 45mm titanium case construction, exhibition caseback, Clous de Paris bezel with lumed ceramic inlay (this could be an industry first as ceramic is extremely difficult to work with especially in terms of applying lume) and a stunning titanium dial which has been electronically eroded by thousands of tiny sparks.

HYDROSCAM 100m

By TLex No, it's not another iteration of CLERC's new Hydroscaph Chrono, take a closer look; it is in fact a new model from Swiss Legend that I spied (literally, I was sent by a very interested party) at Baselworld 2011. When I took out my camera to photograph the watch, a gentleman behind me who later turned out to be Swiss Legend's sales director told me that I was not permitted to take photographs . . .

He even claimed not to recognize my legitimate photography license on my press pass. Maybe he was afraid that I was another watch manufacturer who had aims on his original design! Anyway after a polite exchange of words he eventually conceded. They say that imitation is the highest form of flattery, I'll let you decide!

PERRELET Seacraft 777m (new line)

By TLex I have mixed feelings about PERRELET's new Seacraft line; while it is a very pleasing to sea Perretlet producing a full range of divers watches; there is no escaping the the generic look of the Seacraft line, which could in many ways be likened to Omega's Planet Ocean. Perrelet, who have of late been making a name for themselves with their Turbine XL (Double Rotor) have a history dating back to 1777 (hence the 777m depth rating), when Abraham-Louis Perrelet revolutionized the power supply to a movement by developing the automatic winding system for pocket watches.

The fit and finish of the Seacraft watches is exceptional and once I had got past the initial feeling of having seen this look repeated so many times before there were a couple of subtle nuances that I really appreciated, such as the angular case sides, particularly the left lateral side where the HEV has been placed, the exhibition casebacks and the thoughtful push-button divers extender on the clasp. The Seacraft line consists of three basic models; 3 Hands-Date, Chronograph and GMT each available in three colors; black, white or blue. The Chronograph at 45mm is the larger of the three the 3 Hands-Date and GMT each measure 42mm.
