Purple night sapphire, oval cut peridot, garnet and bright orange circular cut diamond gold necklace

Is well known that the linear smooth rounded contours, size and unique sense of color combinations has become a treasure Grit some style elements, and this style can be traced back to the formation of the beginning of the last century.

It was the late 30s of last century as a summer morning fog in Rome has not completely dissipated, Bulgari’s second-generation descendant of Giorgio – Bvlgari kissed the sleeping infant son, also Paul – Bvlgari hastily came to the office. In order to Duke in Hyderabad, India ordered a necklace of the most prominent position inserts a diamond, he has played with a local jeweler for nearly six months of dealings. Be able to get a diamond on the market is not insufficient purity, that is, the volume is too small, Giorgio urgent need to turn its attention to the international diamond market. Therefore, the middleman, this is morning, he will want three jewelers who have come to negotiate.

Prior to this, these three jewelers to bring a few diamonds have been identified to belong to a very rare diamond, even a lifetime dealings with the gemstones of Giorgio, usually do not have much chance to see. In addition, it cheaper than the market price into two, for Giorgio, it had a few diamonds to meet the requirement, but even better than expected results. But in the end, Giorgio was rejected because there is only one – that three guests visiting from Sierra Leone can not provide the source of these diamonds as well as the source. In other words, this is a number of conflict diamonds, Giorgio’s acceptance of women and children in Africa could have caused incalculable killing.

The lack of diamonds in the market eventually Giorgio had to choose a 3.1 karats of diamonds. To compensate for the diamond on the fineness and the size of defects, he used a different means to the past – will be cut into diamond shapes of the oval, and then select a number of smaller, but the colorful gems to match. As a result, the shape of oval diamonds add a sense of unexpected size, color gemstones, compared with the diamond necklace can not bring a sense of show jumping. No doubt, this necklace finally obtained a high recognition – the Grand Duke to continue to Hyderabad Bvlgari listed his orders. From this one, the Bulgari family, found himself in the jewelry market, a new road – with colored gems and precious stones unique combination of features, the use of smooth, rounded contours of the cutting process to create unique jewelry.

Long time, I know Tianjin Watch Factory (the predecessor of the Group of seagulls). At that time I was concerned about the aspect of history to explore the entire watch. According to records: As early as 1955, Tianjin city on one of China’s light industry, developed China’s first domestically only to watch. Tianjin watch factory at that time, or be called equipment Guohua watch the public-private partnerships metal factory. Just four simple lathe, bench drill, grinding wheel machine and milling machine; only four experienced workers, on the virtue of that special era will and confidence in the super-religious ties, to copy the success of the Swiss Sindacd movement, manufacturing in China only the first Chinese-made watches. 1955 March 6, Worker’s Daily first reported the news of this exciting since then, Tianjin watch factory watch made in China, one of the main manufacturers.

Today, this once-great national brand changed its name to gull the Group restructuring, the smooth R & D in China produced its own watch in the three complex functions: 3 Q table, table calendar table and Tourbillon. Even in its tourbillon watches, was born in the world are very rare and difficult pairs of Tourbillon. High-end complex mechanical watches for the world market into the Chinese blood, for the Chinese watch industry has won the world’s attention and focus to achieve “international watch industry should be the location of the table Seagull” this grand ambition! This is indeed gratifying. Watch in today’s auction of several major themes have emerged, the Chinese concept of the table is undoubtedly a hot spot. The complex features a Chinese theme watches boutique, in a few years of the closing prices are not a small increase in amplitude. I believe that the overall external economic environment, poor conditions, to purchase domestic products boutique in support of the Chinese industry, to arouse the national sense of responsibility, it must be the blood flowing Chinese people are proud of the pride thing.

For those who know watches somewhat Tourbillon heard the term. In fact, the tourbillon is a very complicated structure name suggests, is a wonderful work on the tabulation process. This can eliminate the impact of gravity on the design of mechanical movement in the world have only a few manufacturers to master a high level of technology to production, technicians must also be careful to master small craft. The content of sodium in a small space for dozens of parts, these parts do not have even one gram of weight.

In 2003, developed the first generation of gulls in Table Tourbillon: variable Movement transmission in the form of direct-drive, variable speed rotation in the entire escapement device for the balance wheel eccentric style, using the support structure under the framework of eccentric rotating tourbillon. The market has been widespread concern. After the Seagull Group also amazing ideas developed at the international level are very rare double-tourbillon watches: both eccentric (also known as extraordinary axis, that is, the center of balance wheel and tourbillon structure of center is not on the same axis) , coaxial (ie, the center of balance wheel and tourbillon center of the structure on the same axis) of two different structures of the tourbillon, in the travel-time accuracy and aesthetics technology to achieve a new leap in technology and the world single mechanical clocks and watches par with the industry’s big-name watches, mechanical watches seized the high complexity of the market opportunities, start with the international forefront of competing against the world-renowned brands.
