The Swiss manufacturer Zenith Replica has once again teamed up La Joux-Perret for their latest futuristic creation: the Moon Orbiter GMT Flying Tourbillon. This timepiece is part of RJ's MoonDNA collection.
This innovative newcomer is equipped with an automatic flying-tourbillon calibre, a movement that has been completely reworked to reflect the new architectural and technological vision of this collection.Replica Watches
The universe AIR Caliber 7813L mechanical movements offers a 45-hour power reserve. The 38-jewel self-winding movement has a beating rate of 4,28800 alternations per minute. The movement is protected from water ingress up to 30 metres (100 feet).
The new Zenith Replica comes with a 48mm diameter stainless steel round case, instead of the rectangular case used in the original model. The case is made of steel and incorporates elements taken from the Apollo 11 spacecraft. The case has two push-pieces, a screw-lock crown made of steel and black rubber. The dial and the plate are laser-engraved with a star motif.
The dial is arranged around the iconic traverses of the brand. The 9 o'clock flying tourbillon is located on the gray dial. It's a stunning design thanks to its bold bridges. The time dial at 3 o'clock is perfectly balanced with the flying tourbillon.(IWC Pilot Replica Watches)
Exclusively for this model, there is an extra complication located at 12 o'clock: a retrograde jumping hour GMT function. A day-night indicator is included with the new time zone. It is indicated by an illuminated disc with stars and sun. This function can be activated by pressing the button at 2 o'clock.
A handy power reserve indicator is located at the bottom of dial. You can see in these pictures that all hands have been renewed with a new red tip. This is a trendy yet subtle nod to the "red Moon". The hands have been rhodiumed, and are satin-brushed.
