Since the 1950s, there has been an ‘ultra-thin contest’ between watch brands. How to refine the watchmaking process and make increasingly thinner movements has become their focus. It is also because of the discussion and exchanges between the masters that the ultra-thin watches are getting thinner and thinner. Today, the Watch House recommends three ultra-thin watches for everyone, they are all leaders in the ultra-thin world.

Watch details: This ultra-thin watch uses the Audemars Piguet 2120 movement with a thickness of 2.45mm. Although it is not the thinnest mechanical movement today, please do not underestimate it. Under the trend of other ultra-thin movements to reduce the thickness of the micro-rotor, this movement still adheres to the design of the central rotor. This central rotor, which highlights the movement’s characteristics, is made of 21K gold and is radiant. The oscillating weight with the axis at the center of the watch can maintain the performance of the barrel in an optimal state, so as to provide a stable output power for a long time and improve the accuracy of the watch. Audemars Piguet claims that the reason why it chose the central automatic disc instead of the built-in pocket automatic disc is also based on the consideration of improving the performance of the movement. The spring barrel is only supported by the bridge plate, as if suspended, with a rare 19800vph vibration frequency, it can ensure a power reserve of 40 hours.

Watch details: 681 automatic winding movement, full winding can provide 50 hours of power reserve. With a thickness of 7.6 mm, this watch is light and elegant on the wrist.
Summary: Some of the internal parts of the watch movement are thinner than paper and smaller than rice. When placed on the table, you can blow it with the breath exhaled from your nose! And the work of ultra-thin watchmakers is to make These subtle parts are placed in the case and work precisely. So I think that the ultra-thin inner watch should also be regarded as one of the super complicated functions.
