The Swiss watch company Angular Momentum creates a revolutionary concepts based on the latest technological achievements of the watch industry. With is innovative developments the brand challenged the watch standards. An unusual design of technically complicated watches “Technical Timepiece” is made according to traditions of vanguard aesthetics. The series models are provided with dial with non-traditional system of time indication.
Currently many watch companies are actively developing the new systems of time indication. The analogue watches with the classic 3D indication were replaced by new methods of time “reading”.
In 1997, the watch company Angular Momentum launched its new development based on the concept of Revolving-Disk-System or R.D.S. It was patented in Switzerland (certificate CH 686988). The R.D.S. was firstly used in the Pioneer watches. Due to the innovative indication system, the time isn’t pointed by the minute or hour hands, but by the revolving disk, indicating the hour, and minute hand.
The revolving disk is provided with a minutes track with 12 time indexes, moving at the hours track. One rotation of the disk is made within 12 hours, and the hour indicator is at 12 index, but the minute hand traditionally points the minutes. The disk revolves clockwise, so the numbers are applied counter-clockwise.
The Pioneer collection consists of four different watch models, made in a classic style.
Later Angular Momentum issued many models of wrist watches (World Time, Traveler, Digital, Moon Phase, Digital-Analogue Regulators, BigDate and others), the dials of which were based on the technology of revolving disk, indicating the hour, the minute, the second time zone, the moon phase and the date.
The Swiss watch company Angular Momentum escapes obvious things, lack of imagination. It strives for independent creativity and exclusive comprehension of vanguard watches through a perfect balance between advanced technologies and traditional know-how in the watch manufacture.
