Like any automatic watch, Sistem51 has no need for a battery - it is powered by the person who wears it. Every movement of the wrist sets the rotor in motion, winding the watch, so Sistem51 features an ‘automatic’, or ‘self-winding’ movement.

Even when removed from the wrist and put to rest for a while, it keeps on going for an exceptional 90 hours, thanks to the kind support of your gestures.
