Watch Facts

Case is in 41mm diameter x 9.75mm height; grade 5 titanium with brushed and polished decorations. The watch wears much smaller than the typical 41mm, in fact it feels more like a 40 or even 39mm. Because of the titanium material, it’s also very light, perhaps 50% (my perception) lighter than the Lucent steel brothers. Automatic calibre 01.12-C has 210 components, that beats at an amazing 8Hz frequency or 57,600 BPH. Movement is chronometer-certified by COSC. Power reserve is 60hrs Limited to 250pcs Priced at 19,000CHF

This is a tribute to the 1968 ULTRA-CHRON Diver, the first dive watch to be equipped with a high-frequency movement at the time. This re-edition model has a stainless steel case in 43mm. Automatic calibre L836.6, a high-frequency “in house” movement. “high-frequency” is defined when the balance wheel oscillates at 36,000 beats per hour (10 beats every second) or higher. LONGINES pioneered in 1914 (to time 1/10th of a second) and 1916 (to time 1/100th of a second), improved precise timekeeping. From 1959 onwards, LONGINES made use of the high-beat-movements to increase the accuracy of its watches. Power reserve is 52 hrs Priced at CHF3,500

Zenith, 1/100th second high frequency. ElPrimero 9004 automatic movement, 50 hours power reserve. 44mm case in black ceramicised aluminum or brushed titanium. Priced at HK$93400 and HK$85600 (approx USD 12000 & 11000)

• 42mm case in platinum.
• As the name suggest; the watch features a patent pending design utilizing a dual frequencies system.
• At the push of a button, it can switch from 5hz (regular) beat for normal operation; or 1.2hz (using silicium escapement) for extended storage operation at 65 days power reserve.
• If you leave it at 5Hz, power reserve is 4 days.
• The watch is a perpetual calendar with Instantaneous jump (patent pending), Caliber 3610 QP is an integrated perpetual calendar movement; which allows user to adjust the date at any time without the need to observe the safety zone.
• Black coating bridges NAC treated (provides better resistance to corrosion) Limited production.

is the first ever mechanical diver’s watch from Grand Seiko. 46.9mm case in Titanium. Automatic 9S hi-beat caliber and remarkable anti-magnetism of 16,000 A/m. 55 hours power reserve. Precision of -3 to +5 seconds a day, superb legibility, high durability, due to the high-intensity titanium case and bracelet and the distinctive clean edges that only Zaratsu polishing can achieve. The case is designed for saturation diving, with the valve-free helium resistance that results from Seiko’s innovative technologies, including the heavy duty construction and the L-shaped gasket. The grooves on the rotating bezel are extended for secure use, even with thick gloves. The bracelet has a sliding extension setting to accommodate pressure changes. Priced at 10,990CHF

One of the main focus here is the replacement of the traditional Swiss lever escapement with the Blade Resonator; which is incredible at reducing friction. The hairspring itself is replaced by a short spring shaped like a bow, on the outside of the blade resonator. This short spring pivots between two opposing blade edges, making a very low angle oscillation, the friction generated is very low; which means power efficiency is very high. This system is completely new and will make revolutionary changes to the industry. Low amplitude (30°) with high frequency (5Hz) offers great accuracy, in fact Renaud believes it can achieve far superior accuracy than COSC. Using a standard mainspring, it can achieve an incredible power reserve of 14 days. The case is made of titanium C shape and the movement is housed in a sapphire cylinder that can rotate 360°, allowing the wearer to choose which part of the watch to admire. Unique piece.
