AMVOX1

In Context

At 42 mm it is sized to the current mainstream: 40 mm is the median across every watch measured in this catalogue. At 14.85 mm it is a tall case, and it will catch on a cuff. The case back is open, so the movement is visible without taking the watch apart, and the sapphire crystal will resist everything short of deliberate abuse. 50 m covers rain and hand-washing comfortably; it is not a watch to swim in.

The movement winds itself from the motion of your wrist. 45 hours of reserve carries it overnight, but not through a weekend in a drawer. At 28,800 vph the seconds hand advances 8 times a second.

191T440 stands on its own in this catalogue — no other reference here shares its base number. It pairs a green dial with a titanium case. It was a limited edition.

Movement with alarm - so-called 'Memovox'. Replacement for cal. 916.
