Watches are the category with the longest history and richest connotations among luxury goods. With different histories, cultures, and styles, there are many classic watches that are evocative with their unique designs and have become part of human civilization. Crystallization and representation in. As an ordinary consumer, my understanding of watches is mostly based on the introduction of the news media. However, recently, a top-level watch exhibition at the Secoo Beijing Offline Experience Center opened my eyes and benefited me a lot.
In this exhibition, we saw many rare and precious watches, and brought together dozens of top domestic and foreign watch brands. Through the visit, I also increased my knowledge about watch products. For example, the Bovet watch, which is highly regarded by the royal family, was produced in 1840, with a diameter of 62 mm, a gold-engraved movement, eight large enamel beads, and a silver-gold case. It is still in good condition after 180 years. Perfect. There are also several classic Rolex products that everyone is familiar with. The Cosmograph Daytona series 16523 has a W prefix, uses a Zenith movement, and has a small number of existing products. The gold Rolex R-prefix 16808 was manufactured in the mid-1980s. It uses blue ring scale diamonds and 6, 9, and 12 sapphire scales. It is undoubtedly a rare treasure.
After visiting the exhibition, I feel that I still have to go to the Secoo platform frequently in the future to appreciate the famous watches, which can also increase my knowledge and expand my horizons.
There are many different legends about the origin of each constellation. The appearance and definition of the Omega Constellation series have actually changed over time. There is a saying that Omega laid the foundation for the brand. The names of all watch series begin with "Constellation Series" because before this, many Omega watch designs did not have overall series names, but scattered models and names.
(The Omega Constellation series may be regarded as the brand’s first watch series with its own name)
In 1948, the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Omega brand, to celebrate this special In commemoration of the year, Omega launched a limited edition and observatory-certified precision timepiece named "Centry". It is said that this is the predecessor of the Constellation series, thus creating the Constellation series that has always been based on precise performance from the beginning of its creation. basic requirements.
(Omega’s Centry watch launched in 1948 to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the brand’s founding)
There is a saying about the naming of the Omega Constellation series: by Omega’s distribution in Italy Bruno Passoni, the commercial director, suggested it to Adolphe Vallet, the then Omega brand sales manager, and this series name only began to appear on the dial of the watch in 1952. At that time, the Constellation series had a very iconic design: the case back was engraved with the eight stars that represented Omega's record of breaking the observatory's accurate timepiece in 1931, surrounding the sky at the Geneva Observatory. The early Constellation series is not what we see now, but a classic round design case with shorter lugs. If we study the Constellation series watches in the thirty years from 1952 to 1982, There are many styles that are closer to the design of the current De Ville series.
(The first Constellation watch launched by Omega in 1952)
(The pie plate design (Ref. 168.005) of the Constellation series in the 1960s was designed by master Gérald Genta hand)
(The C-shaped case appearance of the Constellation series is also designed by master Gérald Genta)
I have always felt that the planning of the Omega watch series is very naughty, just like me It is believed that the Constellation series should be Omega's neatest watch series nowadays, but the re-birth of the Globemaster has also joined the Constellation series. Although it is a replica of one of the classics of the original Constellation series: the 12-sided school The cake face plate, and the high-precision coaxial escapement movement certified by the Grand Observatory, revive the Constellation series. It has always been equipped with ultra-high-performance movements, but I always feel that adding Zunba in this way is confusing. The Constellation series is It should all look neat enough with its four supporting claws.
(The Zunba series has been reborn under the Constellation series since 2015. The iconic 12-sided disc section is also derived from the early Constellation series design)
The three most classic features of the current Omega Constellation series: comprehensive Roman numeral time scales, a chain strap made of horizontal links that are integrated with the case, and four claws on the case. These important features all come from the watch called "Manhattan" in the Constellation series created by Omega in 1982, and became the key to the popularity of the Omega Constellation series.
(The Manhattan watch launched in 1982 has several design features, which redefined the appearance of the Constellation series and has become an important identification symbol of the Constellation series today)
(Omega The Constellation series' four claws, one-piece case and Roman numeral time scales are all derived from the "Manhattan" watch launched in 1982)
The unforgettable design features must be classic watches At that time, many political and business celebrities were keen to wear Omega Constellation watches, including the former Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev and the famous American TV actor Robert Wagner. Therefore, the Constellation series was introduced to the market. Best-selling supremacy. Since this year, the Constellation series has not only had a fixed look, but has also become one of the longest-lasting and most popular classic styles on the market.
(The famous American TV actor Robert Wagner (left) and the former Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev (right) both wore the famous Constellation series Manhattan watch)
( Carol Didisheim, the designer responsible for the Constellation redesign, was photographed in the Omega design department in 1981)
In the year when the design draft was drawn, the Manhattan model was set to be equipped with the very famous ultra-thin quartz movement at the time. Therefore, in terms of aesthetics, Carol Didishim has been creating around this concept. At that time, glass mirror production technology opened a new chapter: the invention of mirror coloring technology. Because of this new technology, the first generation of constellations were able to paint the entire mirror surface. Cover the bezel and draw the required time scales on the bezel from the inside of the mirror. This allows the watch to maintain the same thinness and allows the mirror to fully cover the entire front of the watch.
(The Manhattan watch of the Constellation series was redesigned and modified by Omega in the 1980s because it was equipped with an ultra-thin quartz movement. Since then, it has been designed with four claws)
However, this design lacks the function of fixing the mirror on the bezel and taking into account waterproofness. Pierre-Andre Aellen, the head of Omega’s design department at the time, was shaving in the morning when he saw the wall. I was wondering about the way the mirror is fixed, so I suggested to Carol Didishim that the mirror, case and bezel could be cleverly combined by fixing it with claws. After many drawings and refined proportions, Carol Didishim created such a classic details, then the most important key design of the Constellation series appeared.
(The claw design of the Omega Constellation series cleverly combines and fixes the mirror, bezel and case)
In addition to the ingenuity and classicness of these four claws, I also like the constellation The chain strap design of the series looks like a unique seamless chain link formed in one piece. It is a unique design on the market. The interlacing of matte surface and mirror polishing makes the chain straps of the Constellation series vivid and charming. However, the current small-sized watches of the Constellation series are still a bit too thick. Because Omega watches are equipped with coaxial escapement movements, they often result in thicker watches. If they are medium to large sizes, the proportions are not related. It is easy to detect, but if you replace it with a small-size mechanical movement, it is easy to feel that the case is too thick. There are many dedicated blogs for fans of the Omega Constellation on foreign networks. Some people discuss what they hope to see in the future development of the Constellation series. change? What I most want to see is that the Constellation series challenges ultra-thin design and transforms the special case and chain of the Constellation into a design like a jewelry bracelet, which will definitely be beautiful.
(The chain belt design with matte and smooth surfaces alternately polished and full horizontal links is one of the distinctive features of the Constellation series today)
Regarding the naming of the Constellation series, there are also Another theory is that it comes from the famous jet airliner Consellation at that time. If you follow this theory, the Constellation series has nothing to do with the "Constellation" itself. But I still prefer to think of constellations as stars in the sky, just like in Greek mythology, a god was placed in the starry sky and turned into a constellation for people to remember and admire forever. The design of the constellation was created by a young girl thirty years ago. As time goes by, it becomes a new classic like the eternal constellations in the sky.
Xu Bugong: Recommend several modern designs.
If there is a shortcoming in modern watch design, it is that watchmakers are too conservative in dial design. Often dials are gray or blue, or you can only choose between smooth and textured, and more often than not the dial design is simply boring and conservative.
However, there are still some watchmakers who are willing to break the rules and produce unique products. While not particularly common, their use of unique textures, patterns, and colors on dials seemed to challenge standard industry conventions—yet the end result was that such attempts were well-received. Here are five modern dial designs that break the rules.
Seiko Presage Series SRPC01J1 Watch
Since bringing its most popular cocktail hour series of watches to the United States, Seiko has launched a new and exciting watch on this basis. Stunning dial design. This SRPC01J1 “Starlight” is equipped with the movement, case and crystal mirror of the Cocktail Time series watch, and is equipped with a new midnight blue sunburst dial. Of course, the blue dial itself isn't anything special, but Seiko finished it with dozens of tiny, imperfect etched plates, which give its surface a textured effect different from the engraved fonts - which is A hazy, unique look.
Radar True Series Face Mirror Watch
Although not eye-catching, Rado does launch many unique watches, which usually use unique materials and design. The True Series Face Mirror Watch is the best example. First, the watch comes with a ceramic case and strap, which is unheard of for a mechanical watch in this price range. What’s even more interesting is its dial – the work of avant-garde Polish architect Oscar Zieta – whose concave stainless steel has been polished to give it a mirror-like light and shadow effect. The reflectivity of the dial reflects dreamy light, and the bottom of the matte gray hands is decorated with rose gold. They both add a unique style to this seemingly compact watch.
Nomos Metro Neomatik 39 Silvercut Watch
Although Nomos’ core series of watches has not changed much, the brand has made significant changes by fine-tuning its products and adding new ones to them. The dial design and configuration have been a great success. Nomos' insistence on Bauhaus-style minimalism made the brand a hit. Some additional features, although ultimately unexpected, were carefully considered by the designers, such as the “Silvercut” model of the Metro series. The dial is rhodium-plated and features a horizontal brushed finish, giving it a raw and refined industrial look. Of course, like many other watches from the same brand, the Nomos features red seconds and red hour markers at three, nine and twelve o'clock, adding colorful interest to the watch's appearance.
Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Control Date watch
While many watch companies draw modern inspiration from past designs, Jaeger-LeCoultre uniquely brings back a once-popular Dial design: sector dial. Divided into segments by slender hour markers and named after concentric circles, today’s sector dials are very subtle. Applying retro design themes to modern times is one thing, but Jaeger-LeCoultre also works hard to ensure that such designs will be popular. The biggest highlight is the central ring on the dial, which is mainly silver and decorated with beige surrounds. Best of all, as a super accurate watch, every hour, the black hour hand track has light blue markings.
Parmigiani Fleurier Tonda 1950 “Blue Abyss” Deep Blue Series Watch
Parmigiani Fleurier is not the only company to use meteorites as dials (other high-end brands such as Omega and Also used by Jaeger-LeCoultre), but this one is probably the most impressive. Tonda’s dial was originally a small piece of meteorite that was acid-washed several times to reveal its unique crystal structure (formed by the extreme temperature changes entering the Earth’s atmosphere). Then, depending on the light, the blue coating will appear to change from blue to black or to purple.

When it comes to classic watches, there are too many, every brand, in every era There will be different classic designs, so that we only need to see the appearance of a watch to know whose brand it is without looking at the brand name.
To give a few examples:
1. Patek Philippe Ref.96
Starting from the king of watches, it is natural to set an example. The first model of the Calatrava series, Ref.96, born in 1932, created the ultimate beauty of simplicity and simplicity. Although the case size at that time was only 30.5MM, this size was the trend of that era. The key to its beauty lies in the shape of the case, which exudes elegance. Classically elegant and rounded beauty, this simple line design brought design inspiration to a series of basic watch models such as Ref.570, Ref.2526, etc. Various complex craftsmanship on the dial, such as greening, are also on display, making the artistic charm of Ref. 96 even higher.
Ref.96

3. Panerai LUMINOR 1950
Nowadays, both men and women love big watches. They look domineering and comfortable. Secondary. The initiator of this "big" trend is undoubtedly Panerai. In the late 1990s, it led the trend with its unique large case shape with crown and bridge protection. Since then, Panerai's "big" has continued to refresh people's perception of watch size. cognition. After 2000, almost all brands were on the road of "big" rationality, and they are still enjoying it to this day.
LUMINOR 1950 3 DAYS ACCIAIO - 47MM
Of course, there are also classic watches from many brands, such as Rolex’s Oyster, IWC’s Portugal, Audemars Piguet’s Royal Oak, and Girard-Perregaux. Laureato, Cartier tanks and so on, making the colorful watch world more interesting. My love for watches is endless~
When it comes to classic watch designs, there are several representative styles that cannot be avoided:
Take Rolex Green Water Ghost and Black Water Ghost as the most popular ones. The representative Oyster case design has brought many reference designs to later generations of waterproof and dustproof watches. The Oyster case has also become a representative symbol of Rolex due to its advantages. In many later brands of waterproof watches, the shadow of the Oyster case can be seen more or less in the design.
There are also Panerai’s pillow-shaped case and unique bridge protection design, which are also very classic. Of course, there's a chance you won't like this look and think it's too big or silly. However, at the same time, you have to admit that the classic nature of this design can be seen from Panerai’s popularity today.
Audemars Piguet’s Royal Oak series is designed by watch design master Genta. Its birth influenced the entire modern sports style watch. The shadow of the Royal Oak can be found in later Nautilus, IWC's Engineer series and other styles. This watch breaks the tradition that watch screws cannot be exposed. With its clever design, it is still popular today.
When it comes to square watches, it is difficult not to think of Jaeger-LeCoultre's flip watch. The original flip style design was designed to protect the dial of the watch when playing polo. After years of continuous development and extension, the flip series has become the representative style of Jaeger-LeCoultre. When people mention Jaeger-LeCoultre, the first reaction is often the Jaeger-LeCoultre flip.
There are many classic designs in the watch industry, such as Richard Mille’s barrel-shaped design, etc. Due to limited space, I will not go into details here.
Focusing on watches and jewelry,
The sales of jewelry and women's watches have been getting better and better in the past two years, and of course they are driven by fairies behind them. There are more and more female cousins ??in our Fulu Hip Hop cousin group.
I was chatting with my cousins ??a few days ago. As we chatted, we talked about women’s awakening, equal rights and other phenomena. I felt that today’s society has higher and higher requirements for professional women, and professional women are becoming more and more capable. , not only do you have a successful career and family, you also have to care for your own body, mind and soul. Several of my cousins ??I have met have indeed done this: they must speak elegantly, dress appropriately, have a strong heart, and have a noble soul. They exude the flavor of "In Every Woman Is A Queen" from the inside out.
When it comes to Dream Watch, most of the female watch friends mentioned the Breguet Reine de Naples series (Reine de Naples) for various reasons - "I like the Breguet brand, its classic style and powerful technology. ", "I like the design of the Queen of Naples series", "I like the moon phase", "I like the story and culture behind the series..." But the most fundamental point is that almost everyone in the group agrees - "Being able to own a Queen of Naples series watch In fact, it also represents a woman’s financial and career independence and the maturity of her self-awareness.” “The ‘In Every Woman Is A Queen’ mentioned in the Queen of Naples series of watches can directly touch the hearts of modern independent women.”< /p>
When the conversation reached its climax, I directly changed the group name to "Every woman is the Queen of Naples".
Two days later, a cousin sent me a private message asking me how good the Queen of Naples series is and why you all admire it so much?
I had to knock on the blackboard with them again: "You know Caroline Murat, right? She is the Queen of Naples, Napoleon's youngest and smartest sister, she is also an independent personality with great A woman with political ambitions. During her reign, she personally presided over the political affairs of the Kingdom of Naples and the production and life of the people, and encouraged the development of manufacturing and innovation in art and culture. She is a strong woman today. ”
The Queen of Naples in History
"What does that have to do with watches?"
"Don't worry, listen to me. As a member of the Bonaparte family, Cara Lorraine Murat naturally had a lot of interactions with Mr. Breguet, the top watchmaker at the time. It is said that she ordered no less than 34 timepieces from Master Breguet in her life."
"She still really likes it. Where's Breguet?"
"Master Breguet, do you know?"
"Of course you know, the most powerful watchmaker has invented the tourbillon for a long time. In fact, they are all watch kings, and they are still a very good brand to this day."
"Yes! In addition, he has a close relationship with Napoleon's family, and both Napoleon and Josephine are loyal fans of Master Breguet. ”
Abraham-Louis Breguet (1747-1823)
“Back to the Queen of Naples, Caroline Murat summoned her in her tenth year of marriage. After more than two years of research and development and production, Breguet spent countless manpower, material resources and financial resources to finally produce it. An oval bracelet timepiece watch numbered NO.2639. This watch uses a separate lever escapement, has a thermometer, and a fast/slow indicator function. The strap is made of gold threads and fine hair that were popular at the time. Weaving. This is the predecessor of the Queen of Naples series."
"Is there a picture of that watch?"
"It's a pity, Caroline. After Murat's death, except for two maintenance records, there is no news about this unique watch. However, Breguet still completely retains the production register at that time, which clearly records the names of the craftsmen who participated in the production at that time. , as well as the materials selected and each process, as well as detailed records of the two repairs.”
The order record of the first watch in Breguet’s production roster
“In 2002, after extensive data checking and research, Breguet launched the brand-new Reine de Naples series, with an oval-shaped case, eccentric dial design, moon phase function, Roman numerals, and four o’clock position. The crown is inlaid with gems, and these features have become the hallmark of the Queen of Naples series."
