Independents

I think most of us have heard of one of the geniuses of watchmaking - Bernhard Lederer. The guy who is behind many innovations presented by the world's best manufacturers, as well as the latest CIC - presented under his own brand - LEDERER. The Central Im...  

...are there any numbers? From an independent source I mean.

"In comparison to conventional escapements, what distinguishes the CIC solution is its unwavering accuracy. While many classic designs may be precise under specific conditions, their accuracy tends to fluctuate with spring tension, watch position, or dail... 

However, there's now at least one which is said to be running well. Hopefully, all issues have been resolved. These kind of things are very common in high-end watchmaking and usually not spoken about. I have a question about the design: The escapement req... 

I had the opportunity to shake this watch and it still worked perfectly. This is the whole clue of the concept. 🤔

No, a slight shake would not prove any sort of concept. I did not say the reason the first watches did not work was the problem with shock protection. The joy of a watch like this is its complexity. However, that is also more points of failure. I said tha... 

I saw the watch with my own eyes, I guess you didn't. I had the opportunity to play with it, shake it, and lightly hit it, which is part of the concept. I can confirm that nothing affected the precision. I know that these watches underwent a very comprehe... 

You knew that a typical timegrapher such as a Weishi won't work for this, right? And furthermore, this would only give a snapshot of the rate. I'll be interested to hear all about your well thought through methodology, which I presume involved seeing the ... 

I wouldn't want to comment on the methodology and how the watch I had the opportunity to check. You don't have to believe me, but I have spent some time with the watch 😊 You are making statements about the watch, but you haven't held it in your hands 🤔 ... 

I don't believe, based on your repeated statements, that you understand about the watch. Holding the watch is nice, but it hasn't led to you having knowledge about the watch.

To understand the whole concept, I had to turn to its creator - Bernhard Lederer himself, who introduced, explained, and demonstrated it to me. I understand that you did the same to understand the concept?

... it's not a metter of believing in you or not. In general, when a person (or a company) makes a bold statement about something that has been proved working for years or even decades or centuries and they say that they created something better it's up t...

So I gave up a long time ago trying to find and purchase a "chronometer" watch that runs spot on. It should just be buy it if you like it, and are willing to drop the cashola for it. One was offered to me last year by my dealer but I just was not attracte... 

Best chronometers

I just love the feel of Rolex

They are probably the best mass produced product of any type in the history of the world

...but it is still a tool watch, nothing sophisticated

The independent cool factor is unarguable, but nothing beats Rolex when it comes to making reliable and accurate timekeepers.

I don't know if anyone independent verified it. Anyway, you brought up a very interesting point!
