Functional Parameters
Shock Resistance
We control the resistance to shocks. We place the watches loosely in a box
running on the Cyclomotion in order to simulate the small shocks a watch
undergoes under normal wearing conditions.
Temperature Resistance : 5°C to 45°C
We control the functioning of the watch under extreme conditions. The special
alloy that composes the balance spring is very sensitive to temperature
variations. Its dilatation can modify its regulating action and thereby affect the
reliability of the watch. Furthermore the oil used in the
is also sensitive
to temperature variations. We test the seven bellows used in the watch to
compensate for the oil expansion and contraction. After being placed in an oven
at a temperature of 45°C the watch is chilled to 5°C.
Aesthetics Control
We control each of the visual aspects of the watch: case, case back, dial, straps,
buckle or folding claps are checked under a UV light and by magnifying glasses in
order to guarantee a flawless watch in terms of aesthetics default or scratches.
