Scott Brash riding Hello Sanctos won the Longines Global Champions Tour Grand Prix of Estoril 2015 in Cascais (Portugal). To honour this amazing performance, he was presented with an elegant Longines Replica watch.
The Longines Global Champions Tour is a prestigious 15-stage show jumping series of which Longines is the Title Partner as well as the Official Timekeeper and Replica Watches UK.
Hysek has used the geometry of its IO to full effect. In the centre of this miniature theatre sits, not a pair of hands, but a tourbillon. To complete the visual effect, Hysek has made it a flying tourbillon – meaning that it has no upper bridges – held in place by a ceramic ball bearing fixed to the plate. As a result, the tourbillon appears to be hanging in mid-air, centre stage, focussing all eyes on it. Hysek has also skeletonized the movement to further heighten the sense of depth when contemplating the replica watches UK.
The manufacture has showcased this escapement, and created the perfect backdrop for its performance, by the simple expedient of two discs. Echoing the tiered seating in an amphitheatre, Hysek has designed multiple levels of time-telling, arranged in concentric circles – like so many spectators around the main stage occupied by the tourbillon.
The first disc marks minutes. The slim, black circle is engraved in white and has 60 minute markings, remaining as motionless as rapt spectators while a delicate gold-coloured mobile arc runs round the circumference to display the minutes. The hour disc sits above it, graduated over 24 hours. On this broad outer ring, only the hour in progress is fully readable, framed by a pink gold window, while the others are concealed behind an openwork applique motif. Its smooth yet lively outline is accentuated by a black and maroon flange – a combination that provides a clever colour transition from the black disc to the timepiece’s gold finish. Hysek’s hallmark R des vents compass rose finish graces all the bridges and is visible on the back, as well as on the black plate that serves as a dial.

The IO Jumping Hours Tourbillon is powered by a new automatic calibre, the HW20, wholly designed and produced in the Hysek manufacture. Guaranteeing a 42-hour power reserve, it can be admired through the cheap UK fake Rolex watch’s sapphire back. The time is set with a single button, located at 3 o’clock.
The timepiece comes in a 45 mm case. It is available in two rose gold versions, the second featuring a gemset bezel. Both is available in limited editions of 88 pieces.
