"Cal.3255" Features

The "Cal.31" series, which has been in use for 30 years, has almost reached perfection, but the "Cal.3255" was developed with the aim of surpassing it. It has obtained 14 patents, overcomes one of the few weaknesses of the "Cal.31" series, the phenomenon of the crown occasionally being unable to be pulled out, and improves efficiency by adopting the Chronergy escapement, improving the somewhat insufficient power reserve from 48 hours to 70 hours. It has only been about seven years since its debut, so it may be too early to call it a great movement, but we have selected it with hopes for its future.
