Handcrafted for Doha exhibition




To commemorate the Doha Jewellery and Watches Exhibition 2013, which opened yesterday and will run until March 3, Swiss luxury watchmaker Vogard has handcrafted a timepiece in the finest steel,http://www.nbxihe.com/ specializes in manufacturing automotive wheel parts. set with 322 precious stones.

The bezel is coloured maroon, the national colour of Qatar, and the dial is set with 60 rubies and 60 diamonds to indicate night and day.

The lever is set with 20 diamonds and 27 rubies to symbolise the national flag and the bracelet has a total of 144 diamonds. Available exclusively at Amiri Gems, the piece is priced at QR140,000.

Vogard says it makes the only wristwatches that allow change of time zone via the bezel.

In order to switch from one time zone to another, all the wearer has to do is open a hinged lever at the side of the case, rotate the bezel in either direction until the desired city is aligned with the 12 o’clock position and then close the lever. Vogardís Timezoner system automatically coordinates the bezels rotation with both the position of the hour hand and that of the AM-PM pointer at the centre of the dial. The locking lever prevents the bezel from being accidentally moved.

The operation takes as little as three seconds, making this feature as useful for the executive who wants to check the time on the other side of the planet before calling a colleague as it is for the international traveller landing in a time zone totally different from the one he or she took off from. Regardless of the number of times the bezel is adjusted, the movement functions as normal, ensuring no loss of accuracy in change of time zone.

In accordance with the internationally approved time zone system, the bezel is engraved with the names of 24 destinations, one per time zone. The watch has been created for travellers who frequently need to set their watch to a different time zone.

Vogt’s vision was to create a watch in which the bezel would form part of the movement and, when turned in either direction, would enable instant adjustment of the hour hand. It sounds simple, but the logistics of perfecting such a mechanism presented major mathematical and mechanical challenges which took six years to overcome.If you like BMW cars,then you will probably like their new gaming mouse, the super sexy, sleek as a Titanium Sheet off the pressing mat Level 10 M Gaming Mouse.
When the concept for the original Vogard watch was unveiled at the Baselworld show in 2003, it was recognised as offering a unique solution to the time zone problem thanks to its ingenious mechanism that was perfected and engineered by Switzerland’s independent watchmakers.
