Why the NH35 Mechanical Movement Outshines Quartz

We believe a timepiece should be more than just a tool—it should be an experience. That’s why every watch in our collection, including the Vanguard, Eclipse, and The Normandy, is powered by the NH35 automatic mechanical movement, a testament to craftsmanship and longevity. But why choose mechanical over quartz? Let’s break it down.

The Heartbeat of a True Timepiece

Quartz watches are everywhere—they’re battery-powered, often cheaper, and require little maintenance. But they lack something vital: soul. The NH35 movement, on the other hand, is self-winding, meaning it harnesses the energy of your wrist’s motion. No battery replacements. No disposable parts. Just pure mechanical precision.

Durability & Longevity

While quartz watches eventually fail when their circuits degrade, the NH35 can last a lifetime with proper care. Built with 24 jewels, a smooth 21,600 vibrations per hour, and a 41-hour power reserve, it’s designed to keep going—just like you.

A More Engaging Experience

A quartz watch ticks once per second—a mechanical movement like the NH35 glides with a sweeping second hand, offering a mesmerizing, fluid motion. It’s a small detail, but one that speaks volumes about the artistry behind mechanical movements.

Precision & Reliability

The NH35 is renowned for its accuracy, shock resistance, and hacking function (allowing precise time setting). It’s the perfect blend of old-school mechanical craftsmanship with modern dependability—something quartz movements simply can’t replicate.

Powered by NH35

We don’t settle for ordinary. Every watch we create is a statement piece—built with the legendary NH35 movement to ensure reliability, longevity, and an undeniable connection to traditional watchmaking.

Whether you wear the Vanguard, Eclipse, or The Normandy, you’re not just wearing a watch—you’re carrying a piece of mechanical excellence that will stand the test of time.

Upgrade to mechanical perfection. Upgrade to Five Minutes Before.
