Unusual Wristwatches by Haldimann

The watchmaker Beat Haldimann, founded his own brand in 1964, presents an unusual novelty. This watch has a flying tourbillon, but the owner will not see it. The owner of the H9 Reduction watch sees nothing on his own wrist, except of a bluish-black opaque sapphire!

The H9 Reduction watch overturns the conventional notions of timekeeping. Inside it is installed the caliber H.Zen-1 with a manual winding, which has 18,800 vibrations per hour. Functions: hours and minutes. However, you will not see them. About the time that the watch shows on your wrist, you can only fantasize. The mechanism can be admired from behind, through the transparent case back. While there is insufficient information about what it looks like the flip side - perhaps through the transparent case back can somehow determine the exact time, but either way first of all you need to remove the watch from your wrist.

The case of the H9 Reduction watch is made of platinum 950 and has a diameter of 39 mm or 42 mm. Water resistance is 30 meters. It is supplied on a black alligator strap or platinum bracelet. The new creation of Haldimann bat breaks the connection between the concepts of "watch as a tool" and "watch as time." Useless, but very philosophical watch came out from the master. Black sapphire crystal looks very stylish, and wafting out of it ticking adds mystery to the model. It's a pity that there is any button that would turn inside lights and see the hands and tourbillon.

It’s not the first time when the extravagant master is shocking watch public. One can think of his model H8 Sculptura central tourbillon, which had only the central tourbillon and single hand. They are not the time keepers in the conventional sense, but rather unusual accessories, which is part of the movement. Design, manufacture and assembly of watches Haldimann are carried out on own brand’s manufacture, which once again show their exclusivity and uniqueness.

When I look at this watch, "Black Square" by Malevich comes to my mind. There's nothing except your own world, your rules, your views... and your Time. Perfect idea!
