Excited with the silicon oscillator tech by FC
It’s always excited with new mechanism and technology ! I remember seeing the zenith defy lab with huge silicon oscillator watch, the big oscillator is dominated the whole dial, with non stop moving, it’s little Disturbing ! I wish I can share video … a q...
Parmigiani had a prototype of something similar
I recall it being stylistically off brand for them but still very impressive looking in it's own right, ...
Thanks for sharing
I was sorely tempted and could have gotten one as it took more time than usual for the stock to clear out but I couldn't get over the dial, I would have preferred the tech to stay hidden in the back (not that my opinion matters anyway!).
This is such a cool piece
Congratulations on grabbing one. In my opinion, this collaborative piece is more appealing (looks-wise) than the regular production piece. Are you going to keep track of the real-world rate performance? The rate performance is not guaranteed as far as I k...
Another world
In therms of the standard way mechanical watches works. Simpler said, watches without a balance wheel and hair spring. Quarts, monolithic oscillator are two that do it without the balance wheel and hair spring as we all know. Spring drive i heard from and...
Yes
It is a break through … but the zenith big oscillator seems failed I wonder durable is this ! U measure the accuracy ? Mine seems off ard 30s a day
Fantastic reply
Very great you replied Chris. We can compare our Frederiques and enjoy the beauty of our special tickers. Mine is running + - 30 seconds off. But… i can reduce it when i wear my Frederique often and wind my Frederique till the point of friction tell me to...
Close up on the oscillator
Kind da cool I capture the video of its 288,000 vibrations per hour ! Amazing ...
