Tell us about what you think are the real features of the watch?

When it comes to sound-related watches, in addition to the three troubles, the more well-known ones are alarm watches. The alarm watch is a watch that can set the alarm independently, it is characterized by two crowns, so that the setting can realize the separation of the normal winding dial hand and the alarm function of the alarm watch, the general alarm watch will definitely have an alarm indicator hand with a special shape at the top, this needle will be slightly different in shape according to different brand styles, but its indication function is the same.

Don't look at the watch is very small, but there are still many functions, such as calendar, perpetual calendar, moon phase, chronograph, etc., of course, not all watches have the same function.

The chronograph function is used as an auxiliary function for measurement. The general way to present it is that the dial** has a large striking seconds hand, and then there are several subdials according to the requirements.

The power reserve display, usually on the dial there will be a window indicating the power reserve, in the case of mechanical watches, it shows how long it can run before it needs to be wound, and in the case of quartz watches, it shows how high and low the battery level is.

Looking at the time and looking at the calendar, it is a decorative role, and at the same time, it is also a symbol of status, a manifestation of taste.

It is not uncommon to see a window on a watch that shows the date or the day of the week, and this is the case watch. Common calendar windows include functions such as date, day, month, year, or moon phase.

Automatic recognition of the size of the month, automatic recognition of leap years, theoretically, as long as the watch does not stop, never need to adjust the date and month, does it sound super powerful?

Although some people say that the time display is the least important function of a watch these days, I think it is definitely not. Because the essence of a watch is, after all, a timepiece, and the hours, minutes and seconds are its most basic functions.

It is rude to look at the time when it is inconvenient to use the mobile phone, such as when talking to people.

The so-called "three complications" generally refer to the minute repeater, the perpetual calendar and the tourbillon.

1. Minute repeater, that is, the three-reed watch, through the sound of three kinds of springs, you can distinguish the "hour", "moment", "minute" of the time, and then do not need to look at the dial hands to know the specific time, this function was also designed for visually impaired users at first, but later, because of the beautiful sound, has been transformed from a practical function to a top watch complication, or art form.

2. The function of the perpetual calendar is closely related to the breadth of the calculation time, not only the general display of hours, minutes and seconds, but also the relatively complete time display mechanism that can identify the month of leap year. We all know that there are 365 days in a year, divided into 12 months, but 7 of these 12 months are 31 days, 4 months are 30 days, and 1 month is 28 days or 29 days. It is not easy to fully and accurately represent these seemingly irregular times, and the master watchmakers have been constantly exploring and experimenting with this purpose.

3. The tourbillon is a kind of clock speed regulating device invented by the Swiss watch master Mr. Louis Breguet in 1795, the purpose of which is to correct the error caused by gravity on the clock parts, and also represents the highest technology of mechanical watch technology. The small tourbillon mechanism is made up of more than 70 fine parts, most of which are handmade. At the same time, the finesse and weight of these parts are extremely demanding, and it is said that in general, the weight of the cage and tourbillon should not exceed grams or ounces, which is equivalent to the weight of a swan feather or the weight of two parrot feathers.

Generally speaking, I am talking about my tourbillon, perpetual calendar, and three questions. A watch that combines all three is already a super complication.

The three major material loss complexes usually refer to the following three types:

1. Tourbillon: The tourbillon is to frame the entire escapement mechanism according to a specific structure, and then drive the entire frame to rotate and move, because the revolution and rotation are carried out at the same time, to a certain extent, the error of different directions is neutralized, so that the watch is more accurate.

2. Perpetual calendar: a very complex date algorithm module, so that the movement can automatically identify the size of the month and various February, generally only need to be adjusted once every 100 years, of course, there are more complex modules to extend the adjustment cycle.

3. Three questions: The movement will automatically recognize the current time and tell the wearer the hours, quarters and minutes through three different sounds with the progress of various technologies.

There are many complications in watches, but the "three complications" we often refer to usually refer to the following three types.

Tourbillon: The tourbillon is to frame the entire escapement mechanism according to a specific structure, and then drive the entire frame to "revolution" the movement, because the revolution and rotation are carried out at the same time, to a certain extent, the error of different directions is neutralized, making the watch more accurate.

Perpetual Calendar: A very sophisticated module for the date algorithm, which allows the movement to automatically recognise the month and month as well as the various months of February, which are usually adjusted only once every 100 years, and of course there are more complex modules that extend the adjustment cycle.

Question 3: The time can be told at any time by striking it, and the movement automatically recognizes the current time and tells the wearer the hours, quarters of hours and minutes with three different sounds.

With the progress of various technologies, these three functions have actually lost their practical significance, but many top watch factories regard it as a kind of superb skills have been inherited, due to the complexity, high precision, these functions of the watch ** is also difficult for ordinary people to bear, buy this kind of watch, usually senior watch fans, senior collectors and the like.
