QUARTZ SPLIT- AND ADD-SECONDS
CHRONOGRAPH WATCHES
CALIBER: 289
THE WATCH IS DELIVERED IN ‘ENERGY-
SAVING’ MODE
The crown is extended, the hands are at
twelve o’clock. Once the crown has been
pushed in from position 2, the watch
automatically changes to the Swiss time and
date. It must then be set to the local time. If
the user pulls the crown to position 2, the
hands return to twelve o’clock and the
watch goes back into ‘energy-saving’ mode
after about 1 minute. Once the crown has
been pushed in, the watch automatically
changes to the local time.
PRECIDRIVE OF ± 10 SECONDS PER
YEAR
The watch ensures the display of hours,
minutes and seconds to an accuracy of
± 10 sec / year. This extreme accuracy is
achieved through an ultra-precise quartz
combined with time display correction in the
event of a disturbance.
GPD SYSTEM
The GPD system (Gear Position Detection) is
the watch’s key device. It allows to
automatically reset the hands after a shock,
either immediately or at 3am if the problem
isn’t resolved right away. The GPD system
also includes automatic correction at 3am
every three days to ensure the precision.
PERPETUAL CALENDAR
The watch is equipped with a perpetual
calendar that no longer requires correcting
the date. The caliber does not allow one to
move the time forward or backward more
than one day, in order to avoid disrupting the
perpetual calendar.
