Novelty: Mechanical Series MM from a.b.art Swiss Made
The new series MM of the watch brand a.b.art Swiss Made is composed of imposing pieces with a casing diameter of 46.5 mm and a weight of approx. 83 g (without leather watchband). The massive, three-piece stainless steel casing with screwed on glass bottom and scratch-resistant sapphire glass, plain dial face and the solid leather watchband with steel clasp are in line with the a.b.art philosophy and support the very subdued design. The heart of the series MM is the legendary 16½ line manual wind mechanism Unitas 6498-1, precision alignment on the basis of ETA Chron (backward regulation), 18,000 alternations per hour and Incabloc impact resistance. Operation autonomy is 44 to 48 hours in the MM. The original pocket watch is rhodinized and refined with a Genevese stripe cut as well as blue-colored screws. The new mechanical series MM is currently available with a black, silver or champagne-colored dial face. (www.abartwatches.ch)
