Since the 1950s, there has been an ‘ultra-thin contest’ between watch brands. How to refine the watchmaking process and make increasingly thinner movements has become their focus. It is also because of the discussion and exchanges between the masters that the ultra-thin watches are getting thinner and thinner. Today, the Watch House recommends three ultra-thin watches for everyone, they are all leaders in the ultra-thin world.

Piaget Altiplano G0A35130 watch

Watch series: ALTIPLANO series
Movement type: automatic machinery
Case material: 18K white gold
Strap Material: Crocodile Leather
Case diameter: 43 mm
Domestic public price: ￥ 170000
Watch details: AUDEMARS 15180OR.OO.A002CR.01 watch

Watch series: JULES AUDEMARS series

Strap Material: Belt
Case diameter: 41 mm
Domestic public price: ￥ 195000
Watch details: This ultra-thin watch uses the Audemars Piguet 2120 movement with a thickness of 2.45mm. Although it is not the thinnest mechanical movement today, please do not underestimate it. Under the trend of other ultra-thin movements to reduce the thickness of the micro-rotor, this movement still adheres to the design of the central rotor. This central rotor, which highlights the movement’s characteristics, is made of 21K gold and is radiant. The oscillating weight with the axis at the center of the watch can maintain the performance of the barrel in an optimal state, so as to provide a stable output power for a long time and improve the accuracy of the watch. Audemars Piguet claims that the reason why it chose the central automatic disc instead of the built-in pocket automatic disc is also based on the consideration of improving the performance of the movement. The spring barrel is only supported by the bridge plate, as if suspended, with a rare 19800vph vibration frequency, it can ensure a power reserve of 40 hours.

Zenith ELITE 03.2010.681 / 11.C493 watch

Watch series: ELITE series
Movement type: automatic machinery
Case material: stainless steel
Strap Material: Crocodile Leather

Domestic public price: ￥ 37000
Watch details: 681 automatic winding movement, full winding can provide 50 hours of power reserve. With a thickness of 7.6 mm, this watch is light and elegant on the wrist.

Summary: Some of the internal parts of the watch movement are thinner than paper and smaller than rice. When placed on the table, you can blow it with the breath exhaled from your nose! And the work of ultra-thin watchmakers is to make These subtle parts are placed in the case and work precisely. So I think that the ultra-thin inner watch should also be regarded as one of the super complicated functions.

GP Girard Perregaux’s golden bridge design is a classic design based on the watch industry, and in recent years they have extended the extraordinary Golden Bridge Classic Bridges automatic watch and Neo-Bridges double titanium bridge Automatic watches, etc., have a more modern interpretation of the Golden Bridge elements, once again highlighting the seamless integration of design and machinery.

Extraordinary Golden Bridge Classic Watch and Neo-Bridges Double Titanium Bridge Automatic Watch, the transparent design allows you to thank the fine details inside

The case of the extraordinary Golden Bridge Classic Bridges is made of rose gold, and the semi-open faceplate design gives a glimpse into the internal structure. Two arrow-shaped golden bridges on the face plate stand out prominently. Underneath the two golden bridges is a stage for pure advanced watchmaking techniques. The miniature automatic disc between 10 o’clock and 11 o’clock, and the barrel between 1 o’clock and 2 o’clock form a perfect symmetrical pattern, while letting people appreciate the intricate automatic mechanical movement. The second golden bridge at 6 o’clock supports a large balance wheel to ensure the accuracy of travel time. In addition, its round disc is also mirror polished and frosted, and the beveled round golden bridge demonstrates the highly demanding fine watchmaking process. These arduous procedures are designed to reflect the model of aesthetics.

Create a low-key luxury appearance in rose gold, and see the beauty of the structure of Sanjin Bridge through the half-open faceplate

The Neo-Bridges double titanium bridge automatic watch perfectly combines vintage and futurism. The case combines the distinctive beauty of polishing and drawing. The GP08400 movement part is exposed on the dial, which is rich in modernity. The effect of sandblasting processing, the NAC-treated motherboard, and the PVD coating on the curved bridge with the details of the curved lines are dizzying. The original three-gold bridge design of the brand’s signature now has two golden bridges on the face plate and a balance hand. The third one can be seen on the movement base plate when it is turned to the case back.

Neo-Bridges uses a titanium case and PVD and matte treatment. Compared with the polished and polished finishes in the open faceplate, the interior and exterior, present and past, nostalgia and modernity.

In addition to the aforementioned small golden bridge bridge, there are two dark-gray curved bridge plates connected in parallel below the back of the movement. It happens that there is a smile on the body against the light-colored silver-gray substrate. Unique design ingenuity in the brand.
Just like all collectibles have classics, Girard Perregaux’s double gold bridge series is a must-have watch in high-end watches. The horizontally displayed movement bridge plate cleverly displays the spirit of magical architectural power. Defeating the classics, the face plate is more like a distinctive ‘face’, becoming a valuable high-end toy on a man’s wrist.
