As we all know, traditional world time watch can be convenient to switch within the global 24-hour time zones, which enables the watch to display the local time quickly.

Just press the button once, the watch can switch and display the local time of two preset cities, which greatly facilitates the operation. Most important is that this timepiece can switch the time, meanwhile, also can synchronously switch the date, day/night and cities display. Supposing that users have set the Paris and Sydney these two cities, and at this moment the watch will indicate 4 o’clock in the afternoon of the 25th of Paris, just press the button at 8 o’clock position by one time, the watch will display the present Sydney local time, that is one o’clock in the morning of the 26th. Correspondingly, date display at 12 o’clock position will switch to 26; sun icon in day/night disc will change into moon icon, while hour pointer will jump from 4 o’clock to one o’clock. For mechanical watches, this is actually a magnificent show.

In addition, watch calendar display is also worth pondering. Different from the jump calendar window sought-after by the industry, the 5717 model uses the continuous rotating calendar disc; calendar numeral will gradually step into the calendar window from the left side, and then slowly fades out from the right side. To avoid the disordered indication because of this, Breguet is equipped with a pointer hiding beneath the dial, which is used to circle the current date. This pointer will jump retrogradely from the right side to the left side at the end of a day and then circles a new date.
New Hora Mundi replica watch Swiss is equipped with 5717 self-winding movement, which is evolved according to the Calibre 777 with silicon escapement, so that it can be assembled into an extra model. In the process of design, Breguet has applied for four patents for this watch. The first is a timekeeper composed of two time zone devices, the second is to display the time zone through the main pointers, the third is that timekeeper’s programmable and changeable program mechanical memorial wheel, the last is a device to display the temporary size by the dragging handle.
In terms of decoration and case, case with diameter of 44 mm and thickness of 13.55 mm is made of 18k gold or 950 platinum, and has water resistance to 30 m. Pointers are the famous Breguet pointers. The outer ring of the dial features the Roman numerals, with silver-plated and brushed treatment; edge is manually carved the rose gold or platinum time mark.
At the center of the dial indicates the earth pattern and there are three kinds of dial pattern available, which are Europe and Africa region, the Asian-Pacific region or the Americas respectively. Engraving and manual graving are to create the wave pattern of ocean. The part of ocean is treated with multi-layer lacquer varnish, while mainland is with polished treatment. Above the day/night indicator, sky is made from lapis lazuli containing iron pyrite impurity, which seems the fine gold mosaic, to show the stars. Sun is made of gold, while moon uses gold with rhodium-plated treatment. Case engraved with Breguet name and serial number is made of 18k gold plated with silver and is processed by hand-cut.
