Jean Richard Aeroscope Titanium Swiss Watch Automatic MSRP $3950

Jean Richard is a brand that is sorely underrated in my opinion, with a heritage that dates back to the 16th Century, the brand was for a time the subsidiary brand of Girard Perregaux, and allowed the brand to experiment with sportier designs such as this Aeroscope. this is Grade 5 titanium, the most expensive and hardest material to use, very few watches use this, the Tudor Pelagos uses steel and grade 2 as an example.(see below for a more detail) while the Rolex deep sea uses Grade 5 Brand: Jean Richard Reference: 60150-11-T11-HDEA Super rare and not made anymore, these were discontinued years ago and are nearly impossible to get it "NEW IN BOX" This is a 9.9/10. still has protective plastic cover. All accessories are included, like hang tag, outer and inner box, warranty card and even a carrying strap that has never been unwrapped. Lume is also very good (see below) as the watch is very stealthy. This wears similar to a Seiko turtle due to the short lug to lug, any wrist can accommodate this watch even though it is a 44mm.

The
is not new in the Jeanrichard Collection, but it usually comes with a chronograph complication. From now, this aviation-inspired watch is also available with a simpler three-hand-and-date movement. It has 42 hours of power reserve, a quick date and a hacking seconds mechanism. It is a reliable and simple movement that fits perfectly for this type of “tool watch.”
The Jeanrichard Aeroscope 3-Hand uses the same 44-mm sandwich-style case as the chronograph version, with its fixed 60-minute bezel, a specific feature of the pilot watches that inspired it. For the autumnal season, it comes with a sanded titanium case with a dark gray dial.
On this version, we can find large and highly legible indexes and skeletonized hands. All of them are made out of Billight, a mixture of resin and Super-LumiNova that gives a lucid effect to the entire index, not just to its upper surface.

Grade 2 titanium is a commercially pure titanium that is lightweight and extremely corrosion resistant. This grade of titanium can be found in many watch brands, one of them is Omega Seamaster 007 Edition. Sad to say that Grade two is not as strong as Grade 5. To work the issue out, watchmakers usually treat it with a tough scratch resistant coating. Grade 5 titanium is another way of saying Ti 6Al-4V. Grade 5 titanium is alloyed with 6% aluminum and 4% vanadium. These components result in a stronger titanium, more resistant to corrosion, scratches, and heat. With a higher price, you would better expect grade 5 titanium. When it comes to watchmaking, titanium comes in two forms: and . Grade 2 is all titanium. Grade 5 is an alloy that also includes aluminum and vanadium (6% aluminum and 4% vanadium, which is why it's also referred to as Ti 6Al-4V). Grade 5 is harder; expect to see Grade 5 in higher-end manufacturing, while lower-priced options might use Grade 2. As just one example, the Deepsea Challenge uses Grade 5, while the Tudor Pelagos 39 uses Grade 2 ($26,000 v. $4,400, as a reminder).
