Wyler Geneve Chronograph to Honor Company's Founder | Dec 19, 2007 |
Wyler Geneve created a chronograph that honors the genius of Paul Wyler, watchmaker who founded the watch company in 1896.

The protection is further enhanced by the second component of the triple protection system -this is a one-of-a-kind crown lock with the Wyler logo. It is fixed to the case on either side of the crown. It is necessary to pull it out on both sides before making any adjustments.
The dial of the chronograph watch has the base created in black, silver and lacquered white. It sports inner and outer zones with contrasting brushed surfaces. All the dial's elements are applied to its base, including chronograph counter ring and outer minute track, as well as Arabic numerals and Wyler name. The facetted hands featuring luminous SuperLuminova tips offer supreme clarity.

DeWitt Academia Tourbillon Force Constante | Jul 31, 2007 |
DeWitt launched its exclusive Academia Tourbillon Force Constante watch at BaselWorld 2006. The timepiece is equipped with a unique constant force mechanism. DeWitt collaborated with movement maker BNB to develop its Caliber DW8003 patented movement.
How does the DeWitt constant force mechanism work? A self-adjusting 'energy transformer' is inserted between the spring barrel, which serves as a source of energy, and the tourbillon, which serves as regulating element. The mainspring generates the energy that is every second taken by the energy transformer that saves the energy up and then redistributes it to the tourbillon every ten seconds. The cross-shaped constant force system is visible through a special aperture on the left part of the watch's dial. Every 'branch' of the cross has a weight at its top. The four 'branches' perform six revolutions every minute - that is once in ten seconds.
The remontoir and the rest of the movement function together as a whole unit. The DeWitt engineers incorporated three new wheels into the movement. A third wheel is responsible for obtaining a correct meshing ratio as well as two other intermediate wheels.
The DeWitt Academia Tourbillon Force Constante watch is highly appreciated not only for its technical excellence but also for its aesthetic beauty. It is housed in the distinctive Academia case developed by the brand. The bezel and case band are produced with columns in platinum. The charcoal gray dial reveals relief figures. Two apertures highlight the 'dance' between the tourbillon on the right and the constant force mechanism on the left. As for the hours and minutes, they are featured in the upper third of the dial.
The Academia Tourbillon Force Constante has been produced in platinum in a limited edition of just 25 pieces. Each timepiece features its personal number and is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity with a personal signature of Jerome de Witt. read more »
