As the hours go by, the fluorescent liquid advances. The meniscus, in the shape of a half moon, marks the breaking point with the other fluid in the tube, indicating the time. At 18:00, the fluorescent liquid comes back to its original position, going backwards. The secret that gets the reservoirs going ? Two bellows made of a highly resistant, flexible electro-deposited alloy, each driven by a piston. And this is where watchmaking comes in to activate the system.

 

The secret force driving the reservoirs is two bellows made of a highly resistant, flexible electro-deposited alloy, each driven by a piston. And this is where watchmaking comes in to activate the system.explodedCASE:

An encounter between Fine Watchmaking and fluid mechanics. One might say a utopia. Shattering all certainties, steamrollering conformity, the idea that led to the H1 was simple and consisted of two flexible reservoirs fixed to each end of a capillary. In one was an aqueous liquid filled with fluorescein, and in the other, a transparent viscous liquid. To keep them separate : the repulsive force of the molecules in each liquid, with a meniscus to mark the boundary between the two. txt_transform=”none” letter_spacing=”0″ margin_top=”5″ margin_bottom=”18″ font_family=”none” align=”left” el_class=”commerce general”]Pink gold (5N) with brushed, shot-peened and satin-finished surfaces, pink gold (5N) crownSPECIFICATIONS CASE WIDTH: 48.88mmCASE: Pink gold (5N) with brushed, shot-peened and satin-finished surfaces, pink gold (5N) crownBRACELET: Rubber, titanium pin buckle WATER RESISTANCE: 100mDIAL: Brown hour dial, white indexes and roman numeralsREFERENCE: 148-PG-RO-GF-CR
