German quality - Elysee watches

Posted on 21 October 2023 at 7:28 AM

As a watch lover, there is a lot of choice. There are many nice watch brands in all kinds of price ranges. This can also sometimes cause you to lose the overview. Where exactly should you look? What do you prefer in terms of design, price range and type of timepiece? In this article we will help you a bit by discussing one of our favorite German watch brands. The watch brand Elysee is an interesting brand that produces very beautiful watches at very attractive prices.

As the watch country par excellence, Switzerland is not the only country that offers a wide range of renowned watch brands. Germany is a very close second in this area with the 'made in Germany' label. We also find a wide range of watch brands in Germany that offer high quality and appealing designs. There are also several German watch brands that are known for the good price/quality ratio of the watches in the collection. You can purchase a stylish and high-quality watch from these German brands at an attractive price.

A good example of a German watch brand is Elysee watches. The history of Elysee can be traced back to 1920, where Swiss watchmaker Jacques Beaufort founded his own watch factory under the name Elysee. In 1960, the Elysee brand name was re-registered by the Harer company in the gold city of Pforzheim. Following are various developments that make the Elysee brand what it is today. The special history of the brand is very interesting for many enthusiasts and makes the watches from the collection extra attractive. Elysee watches are manufactured from the start with the utmost care and attention to detail. Elysee aspires to continually improve itself over the years and never stand still in its development. Elysee's corporate philosophy is: "The focus of our work is on the sum of design, quality and high value, combined with the wishes of watch enthusiasts." As a watch brand, Elysee has been heavily involved in motorsport over the years. In 2005, the first private label watches were developed in this area. An Elysee watch is also extra special for motorsport enthusiasts.

The Elysee collection is diverse and includes both classic watch models and watches with a more sporty or cool character. You can find watches where classic colors have been used in the design, with beautiful leather watch straps. But if you are looking for a cool watch, Elysee also offers robust designs with a stainless steel watch strap. We would like to tell you more about two watches from the Elysee collection, each with its own personality. First of all, we would like to take a closer look at the Elysee Ocean Pro Ceramic 80585 for you. This is a robust watch with a sporty and cool look. The watch strap is made of stainless steel and comes in a color combination of silver and gold. The strap closes with a folding clasp. This is not only a luxurious clasp, but it also ensures that you do not simply lose your watch. The watch case of the watch is also made of stainless steel and has a thickness of 10 mm and a diameter of 40 mm. The dial of this model is black in color and has gold/white accents. Furthermore, this watch is equipped with sapphire glass, which is known for being extremely strong. The heart of this watch is formed by a high-quality automatic movement from the Seiko brand. In addition, this watch is waterproof up to 200 meters. Finally, the Elysee Ocean Pro Ceramic 80585 has a date display, second hand, luminous indicators and a beautiful rotating bezel.

The second watch that we would like to explain in more detail is a more classic model. The Elysee Heritage II 18017 is a stylish watch that has a leather watch strap in brown. The watch strap of this watch closes with a buckle. The watch case of the watch is in rose color, which emphasizes the luxurious character of this model. The dial of the watch is brown, with rose-colored accents as well. The watch case of this watch has a thickness of 11 mm and a diameter of 43 mm. This Elysee watch is also equipped with the strong sapphire glass. In addition, this model is waterproof up to 30 meters. The basis of the Elysee Heritage II 18017 is formed by a quartz movement from the Miyota brand. Finally, the watch offers a date display, second hand and a nice chronograph function.

With the above two Elysee models we have given you an impression of the variety, quality and design that this brand offers, at a competitive price. With a watch from Elysee you always choose a complete watch and the golden combination of the well-known German reliability with a sense of style.

Benson Black Series 4.16.CF watch winder

Posted on 5 October 2023 at 9:53 AM

Do you also find it annoying when your automatic watches stop because you haven't worn them for a while? Do you also like to keep your watches in one place so that you have a good overview and you can change watches every day if you want? If you answered both questions with "yes", then you should definitely consider a watch winder as an accessory for your watches. This watch accessory ensures that your automatic watches are always ready to wear with the correct time, date and other settings properly set. You can also store all your watches together in a watch winder, which is handy and saves you a lot of time.

One watch winder is not the same as the other. You can choose a watch winder that only does what it is primarily intended for, namely supplying your automatic watch or watches with energy when you are not wearing them. If you choose a watch winder with a simple design and high quality, you no longer have to worry about your automatic watch standing still. This is quite annoying. Not only can this cause inaccuracies in the time display, it also means you have to reset your watch. The movement that your automatic watch normally receives from the movement of your wrist does not only wind your watch. The movement also correctly distributes the oil in the movement of your watch, which ensures the preservation of your watch. You will also be helped for this purpose with a watch winder that only does what it is supposed to do: wind your automatic watch or watches safely and efficiently.

In addition to effective watch winders, there is more choice in terms of brands and models on the market. As a lover of your automatic watch or watches, you naturally want to be able to store them safely. Then it is nice if a watch winder can be closed. This protects your watches against various harmful external influences, such as condensation and dirt. In addition, there are watch winders that can be locked with a key or a modern fingerprint lock, so you no longer have to worry about unwanted someone touching your watches. In addition to the winding and storage function, many enthusiasts and/or collectors of automatic watches will enjoy being able to present their automatic watch or watch collection in an attractive way. Then a luxurious design and stylish appearance of the watch winder is of course a nice plus. There are also watch winders available with built-in LED lighting, with which you can display your automatic watches in a professional manner.

If you want to purchase a watch winder that has more to offer than just the winding function, the price can increase considerably. However, this is not necessary, there are several brands with a very good price/quality ratio. These brands offer very complete watch winders with a chic look, at an interesting price.

A good example of a brand that has a very strong position in the market in this area is the Dutch brand Benson. Benson offers an extensive and varied collection of watch winders, including the luxurious Benson Black Series. In this series of watch winders we find very complete and user-friendly models, which are also a real eye-catcher in any interior. The Benson Black Series 4.16.CF watch winder is a nice example of a watch winder from this series. This model is made of high-quality wood and then provided with 12 layers of paint and a protective layer of lacquer. This means that the watch winder remains beautiful for a very long time. This model is available in black, but also available in various other colors. The Benson Black Series 4.16.CF is a model with the capacity to wind 4 automatic watches at the same time. At the top, under the soft close lid, you will also find a handy extra storage space for 3 more watches. This way you can store all your watches and any other jewelry neatly and in style. The part where the automatic watches can be wound is also lockable. There is a beautiful glass door on the front of the watch winder. The Benson Black Series 4.16.CF is powered by 4 high-quality Japanese-made motors. These motors are energy efficient and quiet in use for high user comfort.

Locman watches from Italy

Posted on 29 September 2023 at 2:14 PM

A beautiful luxury watch is more than a tool for determining the time and date. For many men it is a special piece of jewelry and in other cases an heirloom or collector's item.

The special technology and craftsmanship involved in manufacturing a high-quality watch make such a watch special. Each individual watch requires the knowledge, skills and hand of the craftsman. The technical ingenuity that lies behind, or rather, in a watch, is one of the reasons for the true enthusiast's passion for beautiful watches. If you feel a passion for beautiful watches, it is important when selecting a watch brand that the brand's designs breathe the same passion.

There are many watch brands within the watch industry, where the passion for the watchmaker's profession is clearly reflected in the designs. An example of an Italian brand where the love for beautiful watches is reflected in the designs that have been created with the utmost care, is the Locman brand. Locman knows how to unite this passion with the well-known Italian class and a bit of technical finesse. Moreover, Locman offers a very interesting price/quality ratio.

With a Locman watch you get a high-quality watch with a luxurious design for a competitive price. The Locman watches are also made of very high-quality materials. For example, the brand uses titanium and carbon fiber for the watch cases of the watches in the collection. Carbon fiber is a type of material that is very strong and also contributes to the sporty and sturdy appearance of the watches. Titanium has other positive properties, and it is not without reason that this material is widely used in the aircraft industry. This material is also strong, but also very light in weight. This makes Locman watches very pleasant to wear, as you hardly feel the watch on your wrist.

When we take a closer look at Locman's collection, we see that the brand mainly offers sporty models, with a lively use of color in many designs. Within the collection we see colors such as orange, blue, red, green and yellow. However, there are also sporty men's watches from the brand available with a more calm character. The most popular Locman watch model is the Montecristo model. There are many variations of this model available within the brand's collection. A nice example of a Montecristo watch from Locman in which the use of color is clearly expressed is the Locman Montecristo Classic 051100BKFRD0GOR. This watch has a bright red watch strap, which is made of rubber. The watch strap closes with a buckle. The watch case of this watch is made of titanium and has a thickness of 13 mm and a diameter of 44 mm. The dial of the watch is black in color and features playful red/white accents. Furthermore, this watch uses extremely strong sapphire glass and is waterproof up to 100 meters. The heart of this watch is formed by an automatic movement of very good quality. In addition, this model offers a date display, second hand and luminous indicators.

A second watch from the Locman collection that we would like to tell you more about is a more modest model. The Locman Montecristo 44mm 0516M01S-00BKWHPK has a more classic character than the aforementioned model. This watch has a leather watch strap in brown, with a beautiful pattern. This watch also closes with a buckle. The watch case of this model is made of a combination of stainless steel and titanium and has a thickness of 16 mm and a diameter of 44 mm. The watch case is also finished in rose color, which combines very nicely with the leather watch strap and black dial with rose-colored accents. The Locman Montecristo 44mm 0516M01S-00BKWHPK is also equipped with strong sapphire glass and waterproof up to 100 meters. This Locman model is also equipped with a high-quality automatic movement. In addition, with this model you not only have a date display, second hand and luminous indicators, but also a nice chronograph function. In short, you also get a lot for your money with this Locman model.

It is preferable to buy a luxury watch from an official dealer. We are proud to be an official dealer of Locman and therefore have a large stock of the brand available. You will find an extensive collection of Locman watches in our webshop, including the two models mentioned above. Moreover, we offer the latest collections and the best prices.
