The Quiet Revolution

March 2006


Spring Drive was twenty eight years in the making, but in only its first year of availability, its award-winning technology has made a remarkable impact. Based on a mainspring, the foundation of all mechanical watch technology, Spring Drive uses an entirely new system for time regulation that delivers the equivalent of 1 second per day accuracy, and uniquely, glide motion hands that represent the calm, natural and continuous motion of time. Spring Drive. The quiet revolution.

A mother-of-pearl disc glides serenely across the moon phase dial to
complete the calm, natural and continuous representation of time in
this limited edition creation. Each of the 200 timepieces is individually
engraved and numbered.
Shafts of engraved moonlight radiate across the movement.

With its high accuracy, complete energy autonomy and GMT hand,
Spring Drive is the perfect watch for the international traveller. Time zone changes are made with no loss of accuracy; even as the GMT
hand is adjusted, the glide motion hands continue to
mark the natural and continuous passage of time.

The red GMT hand glides over the power reserve indicator set deep
into the dial.
