82100

Introduced in 2021 for the Big Pilot's Watch 43, this is the 82000-family Pellaton automatic. The pawls and automatic wheel that carry the load in Pellaton winding are made of zirconium-oxide ceramic rather than steel, which removes wear at the points the system is known to suffer it and cuts the lubrication needed there. Functions stop at hours, minutes and hacking central seconds.
