Affordable Ulysse Nardin Replica Watches Online Cheap Buy

Crowned as the top sport timepiece at this year's GPHG, Ulysse Nardin Replica Watches timekeeper is an important watch for yet another reason. It is the latest double chronograph created by the man who is behind the first ever affordable split seconds chronograph - Richard Habring. Whilst working for IWC two decades ago, Habring was the maker of IWC Doppelchronograph timekeeper. This year, Habring has presented the next incarnation of a double chronograph which is now produced by his own brand Habring2 which he runs together with his wife Maria Kristina.

Double, Rattrapante or Split Seconds ChronographA double chronograph, also known as a split-seconds or rattrapante chronograph, has two central seconds hand. When chrono function is activated, two hands run together, but the second flyback hand can be stopped separately and on another push, it catches up with the main hand. This allows the wearer to keep the track of successive or additional times of events that start at the same time. Making a mechanical movement with a chrono function is complex and naturally, making one with a split-seconds chronograph is even harder. The traditional solution to include this feature was an addition of another column wheel to the movement.Ulysse Nardin Replica Watches It is a very complex procedure that still leaves a lot of room for imperfections of the mechanism (for example, if the pusher is not pressed entirely). More importantly, the price of these watches is extremely high, and up to about two decades ago, it was nearly impossible for a mere mortal to own a watch with this complication.

A Birth of the First Affordable Double ChronographEverything changed back in 1991, after the breakthrough of a young watchmaker named Richard Habring who was a protege of Gunter Blumlein. Habring opted to use one of the most widely used movements - Valjoux 7750 (which is a cams operated chronograph and not a column-wheel one) and supplied it with an innovative lever mechanism that holds rear mounted split-seconds wheel. This is how the first affordable split-seconds chronograph appeared. Since Habring was employed at IWC at that time, the owner of the patented solution was the brand from Schaffhausen and it was first featured in a watch named Doppelchronograph (which is German for double chronograph), and subsequently, few other models.

After the stint in IWC, Habring was working for LMH Group, the owner of several renowned watchmaking brands and then served as a freelance adviser, up until the point when he and his wife Maria Kristina decided to move to Austria and open a small watchmaking brand. The new company was named Habring2 and was envisioned as the brand that will produce small quantities of quality mechanical pieces which will still be affordable.Rolex Day Date Replica After twenty years, the patent that Habring devised in 1991 expired, and it was the time to make another and improved version of the watch which will ultimately be launched by the name Doppel 2.0.

A New Version with Improved Service FriendlinessFor the new watch produced by his own brand, Richard Habring further improved the original design. The new incarnation called A08MR has a simplified bridge layout which makes new version much easier to service (though it is still based on Valjoux 7750). Likewise, the new Doppel 2.0 has some differences that can be noticed even if you are not an expert in mechanical movements, namely the different layout of chrono counters. While its predecessor sported "Valjoux" layout (with subdials at 12, 6 and 9 positions), the new product is made with two larger sub-counters at three and nine o'clock positions.
