The RONDA startech is the first of an entirely new and revolutionary generation of chronograph movements: the first quartz chronograph movement with Big Date, three counters and a centre stop-second.
Measuring 12 1/2''' / 4.40 mm, the modular concept of this unique gold-plated, 11-13 jewel metal movement means that the same sized movement is also available as a classical chronograph with three counters and a regular calendar at 4 o'clock and, another world first, a Big Date chronograph with a single two-hand counter at 6 o'clock indicating 30 minutes and 12 hours.
This versatile and innovative movement offers an entirely new range of possibilities to watch companies and comes equipped with an above-average 48-month battery.
RONDA, a family-owned company founded in 1946 with more than 1700 employees worldwide, is renowned within the watch industry for developing solutions tailored to both market and customer needs. The company produces a complete range of quartz movements from 3 3/4''' to 12 1/2''' for ladies' to sports watches including an exciting new mini movement which can be seen on
