Technomarine Automatic Watch
Curiously, there is no major break in the new aesthetic Technomarine. If we recognize well slurry Perriard in Sport Chronograph Cruise, if it is much more discreet in the new Cruise Steel Camouflage . . . . The Cruise Steel Camouflage comes in 4 colors: sand, green, blue or purple and the box in 2 materials: stainless steel or black PVD PVD rose gold and two diameters: 40 and 45mm. It will unfortunately have to wait a bit before seeing a Technomarine watch features a mechanical movement: the new Cruise is in effect with a simple gauge Ronda quartz. This powerful timepiece is the perfect reflection of the benefits of a vibrant lifestyle, displaying the energy levels shows that draws from the activities and movements of the wearer. A technomarine automatic watch ideally suited to accompany the warriors of our urban jungles. This automatic watch draws its power from a spring wound by the wearer's movements and transmitted to a circular rotor. Very friendly environment, this form of energy derived from human movement is more relevant than ever, perfectly green and creating a "win-win situation that benefits both the user and the watch. This indication will stimulate the need to engage in physical activity. As the tachometer of a sports car, the area of "Power" permanent reminder of the energy in its mechanism and when the indicator is close to "Fine", the owner may find that form a dynamic duo with his watch!. The dial sleek design, this model very racy, highlights the sector "Energy" with a red hand pointing to the graduations from "Down" to "Fine". Needles "in spear" are perforated for maximum aesthetic of lightness and readability. The round case of Power, with a diameter of 48mm and a thickness of 13mm, is stainless steel. The contemporary architecture of this new creation ensures both rigid structure, strong and light, characterized by support pillars and horns completely removable. 24 screws, customized to the brand identity Preziuso Geneva, grip the casing to ensure a perfect seal. The porosus crocodile strap and carbon fiber stitched red reinforces the intensity of the needle in the sector "Energy". . . The technomarine automatic watch is lent to me a technomarine automatic watch with a needle, indicating the hours. This is the same concept as the Meistersinger watches, except that Defakto borrows much more contemporary design. The steel case black PVD measure 40mm diameter (excluding crown) to 9mm thick. The sapphire crystal allows to observe the mechanical movement with technomarine automatic watch winding, caliber ETA 2824-2. The unit is waterproof to 50m. The single needle can tell time to one quarter of an hour almost, but with a little mental gymnastics, I think it would be easy to achieve an accuracy of reading a little less than 5 minutes. but after all, you do not buy this technomarine automatic watch for performing timing sports!. Ergonomics aside, nothing wrong, this is very pleasant to Defakto worn, whatever the size of your wrist. Besides, if you want to imagine what would the Defakto your wrist, you can visit the brand website and print the full size image of the watch, cut carefully and pass it around your arm . Very nice as a concept, I do not know if other brands have had this idea!. I found two negatives to this watch, but nothing rédibitoire. First the band: although well made, I think it does not really match the look "design" of the watch. I found a bracelet or a black NATO strap NATO Regimental James Bond, for example, is better suited to this Defakto. Then, a small detail would have deserved to be improved: the top of the rod center (which is fixed on the needle) is colored steel. Because the case is PVD black as the dial is black (and that the hand skeleton reveals dial) black, he would have been nice if this summit is also blackened, to play on discretion. Apart from these two points, which do not detract from the charm of this show, the Defakto is a beautiful piece, which suits both amateurs to technomarine automatic watch as laymen interested in buying a beautiful piece "design. "I especially like the layout of the dial, very sober, with its large luminous indices, the inscription "DEFAKTO" to 12 and logo at 6 o'clock, a white gear on a red background. Price aside, the range is 380 to 460 € TTC: 380 € for steel models with black or white dial and 460 for models in black PVD steel with black or white dial. At a very affordable for the Made In Germany!. She is pretty. By cons that I can not see if the needle jumps in 1/4h 1/4h or if it runs in a continuous manner . . . . No, of course. The needle does not skip it runs smoothly, without sudden. This is absolutely not a "jumping hour". In fact, it's like a normal watch, but which would have removed the needles of seconds and minutes. For me it's just a matter of taste, not the technical standpoint, I do not like, because they could leave at least the small second, because it is impossible to see if it works or if it is screeching halt. This brand and this shows in particular are well known to admirers watches single needle. I was seeing a flash Meistersinger for the first time and since I find this very friendly kind of technomarine automatic watch (Schauer, Botta, Karl Fact). Epos or Alpina have multiple lines of single-needle watches in their collections and many others have tried to exercise. As Andreas said, everything is a matter of taste and of course no question of timing. But the relationship with time becomes completely different with this type of object on the wrist. It should also make a difference between mono-needle time only and single-needle minutes, the time given in another way, most often jumping (And now I have a Armani Series MECCANICO technomarine automatic watch movement, mono-and needle jumping hour). Susi I really sorry for the bad quality pictures in jpeg compression. But I see that it does not prevent you enjoy this . . . Defakto. . . .
