“Le neuvième art est de plus en plus souvent sollicité sur les cadrans. Derniers en date, Michel Vaillant et Blake & Mortimer sont l’objet de collections spéciales.”
Press Review
“Le 11 septembre, en association avec Dargaud, Reservoir a annoncé la sortie d’un modèle nommé « By Jove ! ! ! » laissant Blake et Mortimer battre la mesure du temps grâce à cette même double complication dont elle s’est fait la spécialité : l’heure s’affiche dans un guichet tandis que le bras du capitaine Blake pointe les minutes.”
“Blake et Mortimer, Michel Vaillant… Ces marques de montres fans de bandes dessinées (…) Que peuvent avoir en commun le 9e art et l’horlogerie? Le sens de la miniaturisation, l’animation, l’intemporalité… Surtout, ces deux univers plaisent aux grands enfants. Pourtant, dans leurs histoires respectives, montres et bandes dessinées ne se sont guère croisées.”
“Vintage cars are cherished not only for their rarity but also for their unrestricted design aesthetics, a sentiment captured by the phrase “They don’t make them like they used to,” particularly with the 356 Speedster. Its iconic tachometer inspires Reservoir’s Kanister collection watches. The Kanister retains Reservoir’s hallmark features like retrograde minutes, jumping hours, and a power reserve indicator, presented in a refreshed design.”
“Partenaire du meeting Air Legend, la marque reste dans le domaine aérien en annonçant la sortie d’une montre dédiée aux pères de l’Espadon, Blake et Mortimer.”
“Le Salon Rétromobile a été marqué par la présence de la marque horlogère Reservoir, qui a annoncé sous une tente d’allure militaire, le lancement imminent d’une montre Blake et Mortimer en partenariat exclusif avec Dargaud. Cette montre en acier de 41,5 mm, avec un cadran noir orné des personnages de Blake et Mortimer, est équipée d’un mouvement automatique avec heure sautante et minute rétrograde. L’annonce coïncide avec le 75e anniversaire de la BD. La montre, plus abordable que les autres modèles de Reservoir, sera vendue moins de 3 000 euros. Une édition limitée de 75 pièces avec un dessin de l’Espadon est également prévue. Le partenariat entre Reservoir et Dargaud devrait se poursuivre avec d’autres créations.”
“Reservoir Watch has taken one of the essential parts in a sports car and created a stunning watch design. they are using the Porsche 356 Speedster’s speedometer as a template for their Kanister dian face, making a gorgeous job of it too. “
“Inspired by the legendary 356 Speedster car speedometer, the pastel green minute indexes, a red area, a black dial and a white hand are housed in a grade 5 titanium case with polished finishes which complete the elegant design of this series. Worn on a leather strap like bucket seats of the time, the Kanister Collection pays tribute to the spirit of freedom of the 1950s decade.”
