The Chronometry_
In each part of the globe, a difference in rating compared with that of Geneva is normal: the gauging of the chronometers changes, but not its precision. The proof: when a timepiece gains two seconds per days and maintains the same gain every day, this actually confirms its extreme precision. When navigating in the past, captains used to take into account the deviation of their chronometer and integrate it into their calculations to determine the ship’s position. If the chronometer showed a deviation corresponding to a one-second gain per day, all that was needed after 30 days was to subtract 30 seconds in order to know the exact time, and so on for each day...

Sands and Shores
T
ucked between the Atlantic Ocean on the east and the Intracoastal Waterway on the west, Sunny Isles Beach is
known as Florida’s Rivera. Spanning over 2 miles, the white sandy beaches and clear-blue waters make Sunny Isles Beach a private utopia for all who know it - and few resorts in the world can claim the same extraordinary beach and coastline as that of Acqualina. Situated right on the sand, Acqualina gives guests and residents unparalled access to powdery soft sands and the calmest, brilliant blue waters of the Atlantic Ocean. Beach umbrellas, plush lounges, and beach butler service are just a few of the many indulgences that make Acqualina’s beach one of the most treasured and pristine in the area. In full view of the beautiful Atlantic Ocean, the three sea level swimming pools at Acqualina Resort & Spa on the Beach are each a sparkling oasis of cool, refreshing enjoyment. Each swimming pool offers a different experience for guests to relax and soak in the sun.

The Spirit of Innovation
At Ulysse Nardin, innovation is the very reason for the brand’s existence. The Le Locle manufacturing company, which has been at the forefront of research and development since it was founded in 1846, has not only made its mark on its own history, but on that of mechanical watchmaking as a whole. Ulysse Nardin is the recipient of 4,300-plus watchmaking awards including 18 gold medals and the greatest number of patents in mechanical watchmaking. Ulysse Nardin’s timeline is punctuated by inventions and world firsts. As early as 1862, the company’s founder secured the Holy Grail at the London Universal Exhibition — the Prize Medal in the complicated watch category. The award not only attested to the excellence of its marine and pocket-chronometers, it also heralded the pioneering spirit of the brand in the 21st century: the first to develop a silicium escapement; to produce a diamond balance-spring, and to offer an escapement without the traditional pallets and pallet-wheel. Ulysse Nardin also presented the first watch with a diamond escapement and, one year later, the first Diamond Coated Silicium (DiamonSil) escapement. Here again, Ulysse Nardin was the first to use silicium as a matrix on which to grow diamond crystal. Silicium is an extremely light but hard material that eliminates friction and removes the need for lubrication of the escapement – the watchmaker’s holy grail. It is a nanotechnology which has taken many years to develop.
The Latest Innovation. The new Ulysse Anchor Escapement reveals a hitherto unknown construction that tests the physical limits of materials. The silicium device, based on the principle of flexible materials, uses the elasticity of blade springs to dispense with the pivot of the pallet arms leaving them literally suspended in space. It’s truly revolutionary. Steadfast in its journey to remain in the lead, Ulysse Nardin looks to its own universe to plot its course and continues in the spirit of innovation.

The Freak. The iconic Freak, introduced in 2001, was a game changer in haute horology. Due to the ultramodern, minimalist and unconventional design of the Freak’s tourbillon carrousel – one that possessed no true dial, crown or hands – and being the first timepiece to successfully present escapement wheels constructed of silicium, the Freak forever changed the course of haute horology.
Moonstruck. The Moonstruck simulates the rotation of the Moon around the Earth, as well as the apparent movement of the Sun around the globe. This permits the determination of the current moon phase in relation to any location in the world. The Moonstruck also shows the global dynamics of tides that depend upon the gravitational effects of Moon and Sun.
Perpetual Manufacture Crafted in celebration of infinity, the new Perpetual Manufacture features the most advanced perpetual calendar in the history of watchmaking. Allowing the date to be adjusted both forward and backward, this mechanical gem naturally accommodates the ebb and flow of time – in perpetuity. As a constant reminder, the dial is stamped with the symbol “∞”.
Marine Chronometer Manufacture. Ulysse Nardin defies time by extending its iconic collection of marine watches with a timepiece powered by Caliber UN-118, a technological gem. Manufactured entirely in-house with its beating heart of silicium and DIAMonSIL, the Marine Chronometer Manufacture reminds us that traditional know-how and confident inventiveness reflects the ideology of Ulysse Nardin: to ensure its creations have the touch of eternity they deserve.
Sonata Streamline Chime into the future. Inspired by the aerodynamic aesthetic of superyachts, the Sonata Streamline reveals a strong and streamlined case with two available dial versions that is powerfully masculine. The case, exquisitely fashioned from titanium, presents one option paired with ceramic – a material unmatched in durability – and gold, and the other paired with 18-karat rose gold.
Skeleton Tourbillon The interplay of light and innovation. Ulysse Nardin unveils its first timepiece featuring an exclusive skeleton tourbillon caliber. Skeletonizing is a subtle art that requires both watchmaking know-how and an artistic sensibility. The aim is to reveal the inner workings of the movement by reducing the structure of components to a bare minimum, allowing light to penetrate freely through. This is a brilliant example of this endeavor.
Dual Time Manufacture. Born from an iconic line, the Dual Time Manufacture enables the second time zone and date to be adjusted both forward and backward. Endowed with a Big Date double window display, also adjustable in both directions, it boasts a silicium escapement, the height of watchmaking technology that very few brands are able to master.
Stranger - When Time Becomes Music. Ulysse Nardin takes watch collectors by surprise once again. The first in this series of limited edition timepieces plays the melody “Strangers in the Night” — the legendary song made in 1966. In development for more than five years, it is a watchmaking marvel: a marriage of movement, design and music brought forth by great minds and imagination.
In the Heart of Horological Passion F.P.Journe has managed in only 30 years to Position its exclusive watch comPany among the most renowned watch brands in the world, next to names sometime known since centuries. indePendent genius master watchmaker so sought aFter by collectors, F.P.Journe has been awarded by the most Prestigious and international distinctions For his technical innovations, and his constant quest For Precision and excellence in horological mechanics.
The F.P.Journe Manufacture in the centre of Geneva-Switzerland (right image)- was founded with one principle in mind: to bring innovation to the world of horology while upholding, even surpassing, the high standards of High Horology. F.P.Journe creates mechanisms that constantly aim to enhance the running and the precision of the mechanical watch. The company always keeps an eye on history, creating timekeepers from which authenticity and technical innovations respect the ethics and research, at the time pursued by the great Masters. The manufacture draws on his historical knowledge to take up the most daring horological challenges, demonstrating a timeless constancy in research and innovation. The exceptional Sonnerie Souveraine is the most complex of all horological creations. It takes a degree of mastery that only a few watchmakers possess to ensure the full functionality of a grand strike very finely adjusted in order to ensure unfailing chimes 332,880 times a year. It strikes the hours and quarters in passing, then hours and quarters at each quarter, and also strike on demand, like a minute repeater, the hours, quarters and minutes. The Sonnerie Souveraine has been awarded the Golden Hand Prize at the GPHG 2006. This extraordinary timepiece has requested some six years of research and the registering of 10 patents for this breathtaking complication from which main asset is undoubtedly is safety of use.
Francois Paul Journe

“I LOVE
Linen ”
100%Capri - The fashion and household linen brand - was generated by the talent of Tony Aiello, a brilliant young businessman who succeeded in creating a brand that has rapidly become synonymous with Italian craftsmanship. Linen, the quintessential fiber of vegetable origin, is good for the skin and cares for the body of those who wear it, enveloping them in the snowy caress of soft fabric. The use of linen is perfectly integrated in the philosophy of 100%Capri, since the attention to the environment is not a derived from a passing trend but is an authentic corporate lifestyle that sets the natural element at the core, starting from the raw material used right through to the creation of the products. And we’re not talking only about fashion creations or the household linens, but about all the little details, such as the
exclusive shopping bags and made up in pure linen. Tony’s genuine strong point is that he has managed to take this lifestyle from Capri to all over the world. In fact in 2008 he landed in Bal Harbour, with Flagship Store in the most luxurious mall in the United States, The Bal Harbour Shops and 100% Capri has stores in St. Barth, Roma, Sicily, South Africa, Beverly Hills, Firenze, Ibiza and will open this fall in Dubai. “I love linen. Linen is a timeless beauty in its purity and perfection. To me linen means eternal youth and an escape to the Mediterranean landscape of
my home in Capri. My personal pride is in our exclusive materials. We have searched the world over to deliver to you the finest fibers which are weaved and tailored by the experienced hands of our artisans. Our timeless style and design is an expression of elegance but most importantly freedom. 100% Capri is 100% Natural - It’s a pure pleasure to wear.” Thus is it is the felicitous combination of linen and the magic of the Island of Capri that gives rise to the man/woman/child collection of 100% Capri, allowing those who wear them to live in a dream.
