With this ship, named the Plastiki, Replica Omega mens watches David and his carefully picked crew members will sail approx. 10,000 nautical miles across the Pacific Ocean from San Francisco to Sydney.The name of this boat, Plastiki, was inspired by the famous Kon-Tiki expedition in 1947, lead by Thor Heyerdahl.To celebrate (and make some money of) this joint venture between IWC and David Rothschild, IWC launched the IWC Ingenieur Automatic Mission Earth Edition (Limited Edition). There will be 1000 pieces of this special edition Ingenieur Automatic. The Mission Earth watch has been covered here earlier this year, right after the SIHH 2009.I have to get one thing of my chest immediately, I LOVE the fact that IWC Replica Omega mens watches didnt put a transparant case back on this watch. That does NOT belong on an Ingenieur watch. I suspect that they have a stainless steel case back installed in order to get the engravings and inscriptions right, but still A watch that is famous for its anti-magnetic construction should not be transformed into a fashion watch.If you take a look at the picture above (by IWC press), you will also see another neat feature.
On June 9th, Bell & Ross launched its new limited edition BR01 Airborne (the skull watch) at Colette, the Parisian fashion and style boutique. At the store, the BR01 Airborne collection was on display, including two new diamond versions of the watch, shown here: The BR01 Airborne (limited edition of 500 pieces) was developed in honor of the courageous soldiers who fought during World War II, particularly the paratroopers of the US Airborne divisions. The skull was one of the emblems they wore on their uniforms as a symbol of courage in the face of death.Bell & Ross produced a video Replica Omega mens watches tribute to the soldiers which you can watch hereI think B&R did a very good job with the video as it is portrayed in a tactful and tasteful manner as a tribute video should be. While the BR01 Airborne has been criticized by some, and there are others who say that they dont get it, I think that the BR01 Airborne is a very special watch with profound symbolism behind it, and I applaud Bell & Ross for producing it.?Ǭ† What do you think?Kyle Stults is Founder & President of Perpetuelle.com, a new online community for watch owners, collectors & enthusiasts.The green production process of the watch manufacturer in Schaffhausen, is Replica Omega mens watches something to be proud of. Not only IWC, but a lot of other companies seem to embrace durable entrepreneurship and corporate social responsibility. One of IWCs projects is to support projects like David de Rothshilds Plastiki Expedition. David de Rothschild and his Adventure Ecology organization built a 60 foot catamaran made entirely of plastic bottles, PET plastic and recycled waste products.
