For 2013 Perrelet will be adding a chronograph version of the Turbine to the popular watch collection. Originally released several years ago as a sort of test sport watch, the Turbine became quite popular and has since spawned a lot of versions, including the original 43mm wide size and later a Turbine XL 50mm wide size (see a full review here). Given the design of the dial and the moving “turbine” that spins with the motion of your wrist, it didn’t seem possible that Perrelet could offer additional complications.

Size-wise, the Turbine Diver is involving the original 43mm Turbine and the 50mm wide Turbine XL. The Turbine Diver is 47.5mm wide. The case is once more similar in style, with a slightly different bezel design. The watch will likely wear a little smaller than it is due to the thick outer bezel and inner rotating bezel. The blades of the tanks are sharply curved, this time looking a great deal more like a ship engine propeller versus the turbines at a jet engine. Together with propellers being used for each of these functions, it was just a matter of time before the watch went from aviation to nautical in theme.Each of those instances have been in steel but a few have DLC black coated sections – similar to most Turbine watches on the market. The dials are attractive, and there is fun sportiness to the collection. They can be whimsical, but also very practical in layout. The crown was moved to 10 o’clock, and the inner rotating bezel as well as the moment, is corrected via exactly the same crown. I actually enjoy the only crown layout versus having two of them (as many watches with inner rotating bezels have). Color wise, the Turbine Diver comes in black or blue, with yellow or white trimming. All models appear handsome in my view. I really do wonder what styles will wind up being the best sellers. On the dial is an AR coated sapphire crystal, and there should be plenty of SuperLumiNova on the dial for darkness viewing. Connected to the watch is a blue or black rubber strap.Inside that the Turbine Diver watches is the Perrelet P-331 automatic double-rotor motion. It is a Soprod movement exclusive to Perrelet and the two brands are possessed by exactly the exact same parent company. Prices for the watch will be $6,550 or $7,200 depending on whether DLC is used on the situation or not. Look for these later in 2012.

So I think it is pretty cool that they managed to incorporate a central chronograph to the Turbine. The issue of course is that on a watch like this you can’t have subdials (as they would look silly being blocked by the turbine), so Perrelet Watches Youtube Replica developed a special central chronograph that measures 60 minutes. The dial’s central seconds hand is for the chronograph, and there is no dedicated seconds hand for the time. Minutes are counted on a moving sapphire crystal disc. Minutes are measured by looking at the red “MIN” arrow on the left of the dial. Not that the watch needed it, but there is also a tachymeter scale on the bezel. I also like that there is a date indicator window peeking through the blades at 6 o’clock.

The Perrelet Watches Uae Replica Turbine Chrono watches will be 47mm wide, putting them between the original Turbine and the Turbine XL in terms of size. At launch there will be five versions of the Turbine Chrono, including three models in steel with various amounts of DLC black coating (even an all-black phantom model), a two DLC black steel and rose gold models. The turbines on the dial are said to be in titanium, same for one version in rose gold.

Inside the Turbine Chrono watch is a Perrelet Watches Review Replica P-361 double rotor automatic chronograph movement made by Soprod. We look forward to seeing these watches hands on at Baselworld and think that they should help liven the Turbine collection once again. perrelet.com
