As the first-ever oil-filled mechanical watch, TYPE 3 is the most legible watch, from any angle. No refraction, no distortion, and the magnified projection effect creates the illusion of touching time itself. The distinctive edge-to-edge, front and back, sapphire crystal of the TYPE 3 evokes a smooth pebble, making it as satisfying in the hand as on the wrist.
Japanese have a term for objects that appear simple yet are remarkably complex: SHIBUI. This balance of simplicity and complexity is the essence of the TYPE 3. Composed of 376 meticulously assembled components, this watch embodies pure minimalism and quiet sophistication.
Adding oil to the upper chamber of a Ressence watch ensures crystal-clear readability of the dial and marvel for the eyes. The patented ROCS 3 is driven by the minute axle of a customized self winding 2824/2 base calibre. Our “Ressence Orbital Convex System” is a state of the art horological complication module composed of 215 parts including the main and sub discs. The result is a dimensional dial entirely in motion and ever changing.
