Since I've been working in Red Army Watches, Malaysia, I would like to say my thanks to them for the exposure given and all the supports from all the RAW guests.
Well, I have Mr. Alexander Shorokhoff twice in year and he is interesting kind a guy since he dare to bring in his collections and willing to go down to the field meetings with his guests. His watches did improved from time to time. This year the watches are uniquely designed and interestingly eye catching from my humble point of view. Who knows, it might be on your wrist too.
With the AVANTGARDE in 2011 reissued opens Alexander Shorokhoff, founder and designer of the brand, and a broader view of his young audience unusual timepiece. His commitment to quality and precision is consistently in the mid-price segment. Using the"Babylonian" he presents the latest model of the collection:
A whole cosmos with celestial bodies and zodiacal signs captured on a dial; under sapphire glass, in a rugged stainless steel version, central element of the timepiece is a hand-engraved movement with special sunburst. The dial is decorated elaborately: A wave ornament - symbol of water and the rivers Tigris and Euphrates marks the horizontal axis. Sun and moon stand out above the work, surrounded by a blue-violet shimmering mother of pearl ring with the twelve signs of the zodiac. Therefore a 1.5 mm deeper night blue ribbon with gold stars, which stand out against the white and silver numerals particularly runs.
The pointers are presented in a clear blue color; a typical of the AVANTGARDE models of the number "60" in the Babylonian replaced the number "12". The exterior of this particular clock is continued in the precision of the hand-wound movement 2609.AS. All parts are engraved; polished and blued screws wheels adorn the fine mechanics. Both sides using sapphire crystal glass giving a clear view of the finely crafted work. The logo of the manufacturer adorns the train bridge.
