It has fewer parts and instead of a ratchet wheel or detent click, it uses a system of 3 wheels at 3 different levels which engage directly with the barrel functioning as transmitters of energy and as a ratchet. The movement is their first to be tested in house in 6 positions an extra position to the testing done for COSC certification. The movement is decorated with Glashutte stripes, blue screws and its iconic 21k gold edged double-G skeletonised rotor. Fitted on its Glashutte 20mm leather strap with signed deployment.
Personal Note
Sold before it even hit the website! A true classic and beautiful watch, executed in famous Glashutte fashion. A real competitor to the big name we all known out of Germany, but a fraction of the cost.
