Here's everything you need to understand about the Micro-Rotor movement. The Classic Micro-Rotor was launched in 2012 and featured a calibre automatic wound by a fan-shaped mass mounted onto a highly polished bridge. What was hidden in its depths, however, was an escapement designed by Abraham-Roger Dubuis Replica Watches says, "Once the Tourbillon Double Spiral became popular, people began approaching me and asking, 'We like your style of watchmaking, but can you create something more affordable?' Christian (Roger Dubuis Replica Watches) and I were both concerned about this because we wanted those who liked our watches to own and wear them. We began talking about a simpler automatic timepiece."
Roger Dubuis Replica Watches's automatic calibre FBN 229.01 would have one more element that was hidden from view. Christian Roger Dubuis Replica Watches says that Breguet was trying to solve gravity-induced errors on the hairsprings and escapements when he created the tourbillon. He was also trying solve the problem of oil. One of his most famous quotes is: "Give me the best oil, and I'll give you the best watch." He knew that the loss of parts or lubrication had a negative impact on watches. In 1789 he invented the Natural Escapement."
The natural escapement is one of Breguet’s most famous inventions. It uses two escape wheels that turn in opposite directions, reducing the friction between them. Swiss Patek Philippe Replica uses a design where the first escapewheel is driven from the mainspring while the second is driven from the first. The release of the escape wheel, which alternates in both directions, reduces sliding friction. The balance wheel is pushed by a lever that rocks back and forward in the middle.
The Micro-Rotor movement contains Roger Dubuis Replica Watches's version of the legendary Natural Escapement. This exclusive double direct-impulse silicon escapement directly on the balance was inspired by Abraham-Louis Breguet, the father of modern watchmaking.
The Roger Dubuis Replica Watches Steel Galet Micro Rotor Salmon Dial was a prototype that we considered when deciding whether to launch the Roger Dubuis Replica Watches Classic Origin Limited Edition for Revolution & The Rake in 2020.
Roger Dubuis Replica Watches had to find a balance between the thinness of the automatic movement and the efficiency of winding the barrel. This meant finding a way to wind the barrel perfectly, in order compensate for a smaller oscillating weight's lower inertia. A micro-rotor requires twice as many turns (300 vs.150) to complete a full turn of the ratchet. The number of rotations required can be reduced to 200 by a third thanks to the Roger Dubuis Replica Watches's efficiency. The owner gains.
