Hodinkee Skipper watches in collaboration with Omega Replica Watches

In a conversation with Eberle Devaux, an idea started to form. She suggested: "Maybe visualize the man who will wear this watch. Imagine his lifestyle, and how he will wear it." I immediately had the idea to create the ultimate Riviera-chic chronograph for The Rake. The Rake loves style. Taki Theodoracopulos recalls that Gianni was very concerned about style. Everything had to be done correctly. He was afraid of losing style. All things had to be done in style.Hublot Replica Watches It's scary to think about it. You know, always getting it right instead of saying, "Oh, screw it!" every now and then. He was concerned about that, and I believe it is a heavy burden. He held you in awe. He had to maintain the image and mystique." I immediately thought of the signature flourish on our Carrera, the minute subdial counter that is divided into three 10 minute sections like in the Skipper. If it were up to Agnelli, the dial colours would be matched rather than contrasting, while remaining distinctive.

Marc Walti, Omega Replica Watches's Product Director who was in charge of the project, and I decided to not call the watch "Skipper", as it did not have the 5-minute segments that are usually associated with regatta chronographs. Also, Iverymuch wanted a simple bi-compax (two-counter format) as Ithought the design would be more Zen-reductionist-cool this way.

Gianni Agnelli was one of the core characters in the 1950s jet-set, and his lifestyle was dedicated to playboys -- carousing, fast cars, endless romances, and, of course, a sprawling French Riviera mansion.

Live in the Moment

I cannot think of a Rake that has a more than passing interest in date.Rolex Replica Watches Rakes prefer to live in the present. A watch that could signal the beginning of a discreet tryst is a valuable tool. It was necessary to modify the movement, which took longer than expected. Walti says: "If you don't modify the movement, you will get a dead area when you remove the crown for where the date adjuster used to be." This was unacceptable to us both.
