Introduction To Rolex “Bubble Back” Replica Watch

The famous Rolex “Bubble Back.”

After the watch developed to a particular stage, it gradually broke away from the style of pocket watches and bracelet watches. Because the overly complicated design is not easy to promote, the fragile shell type cannot meet daily wear needs, especially when wearing it at work and in labor. To conform to the watch’s rules, designers began to focus on the design language of the replica watch, such as solidity, reliability, and durability, so the pillow-shaped and coffin-shaped shells were produced. As we can see, there is little to boast about in the design of these two. They are less decorative and beautiful than barrel-shaped, rectangular, and more modern than the later square, triangle, and octagonal cases. They prioritize practicality and then consider beauty. They can be regarded as the first wave of watches with an industrial atmosphere, especially the “coffin” represented by the Rolex Oyster watch, which has been prosperous for decades and still looks intimate today.

The pillow-shaped watch appeared around the 1920s and 1930s and was more or less influenced by “Art Deco.” From Patek Philippe’s Ref.7071R “Ladies First” clock, we can feel the beauty derived from the Art Deco style. The other iconic pillow-shaped watches are Piaget’s Emperador Coussin and Bucherer’s Evotec. Their rounded and thick outlines are more likely to make people think of a good man who is well-spoken and reasonable. Of course, he must also be very tasteful. Patek Philippe replica.

“Coffin” is often confused with “bubble back,” which refers to two characteristics of the same style. Rolex launched it on the market around 1930 and ended it after the 1950s. Because the back of the watch is arched, it is called “Bubbleback” in English, which means “bubble back.” Because the case has a bulge in the middle, extending upward and downward to the strap, it looks like a Chinese coffin from the side, so it is called “coffin” by superstitious Hong Kong people, which is a homonym for promotion and wealth, so it is trendy among Chinese people. The design of the “coffin” is based on practicality and durability. It was fashionable in the middle of the last century and formed a trend in the watch industry. The “coffin” case shape can still be seen in the retro models launched by brands such as Zenith and Seiko. The shape evolved from practicality, and life now looks interesting.
