Men’s ‘turtle’-shaped watch in titanium.
White dial with Arabic numerals and a railway-track minute track. Seconds sub-dial at 6 o’clock. A window on the dial at 4.30 o’clock reveals a micro-rotor that detects movement.
Electromechanical quartz movement, calibre 1210, with a frequency of 32.768 Hz.
Titanium case with a screw-down caseback numbered B-417-ELHT and a transparent sapphire caseback offering a view of the movement.
Dimensions: 40 x 48 mm
Interchangeable rubber strap with a signed polished titanium folding clasp.
It took the JP JOURNE brand eight years of development to perfect this revolutionary movement, which allows the time to be stopped and restarted on demand.
The principle is as follows: a motion detector visible at 4.30 (micro-rotor) moves at the slightest movement, but if the watch remains stationary for more than 35 minutes, it enters standby mode to conserve energy and the hands stop moving. During this period, the microprocessor continues to keep track of the time. Nothing else moves. When the watch is set in motion again, the hands immediately return to the exact time.
Condition report: Watch in working order, supplied with its box and papers.
