GENIUS – “Horarium Mechanicus”

The GENIUS is a complex mechanical watch that visualizes temporal coherences based on the scientific and creative findings of Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo.

The implementation required 18 months of development. The mechanical and optical highlight of the watch is a 24 hour disc, which represents the biorhythm and as a consequence thereof the course of the day by means of Da Vinci’s “Holistic Man”. The disc is embedded in a multi-layered dial and has recessed symbols which appear red in all 4 quarters of the day. In the upper dial position, a “circle of infinity” is described around a recessed segment under which the date display works. As a mechanical innovation in the KRONSEGLER range the automatic watch has a power reserve display that measures the remaining energy of the movement’s mainspring. This display is located below the upper dial position and rounds off the very plastic structure of the dial. All functions are inscribed in Latin and are indicated by a classic dial hand.

The movement is a 28,800 A/H high frequency movement (4 HZ) mounted on 26 rubies. Once the watch is fully wound it has a power reserve of < 40 hours without further kinetic energy supply. With its diameter of 43 mm, its thickness of 13.8 mm and the brushed body with polished bezel and curved shimmering glass the watch has a distinctive appearence. The watch glass is made of super-hard K1 material. The back of the watch is screwed and offers a glass window to see the movement working. In total there are 5 color combinations. The 316L stainless steel cases are silver or yellow gold or rose gold plated (both double layered, IPG + real gold), the dials are silver or umbra. The leather strap in black, brown or anthracite is thickly padded, embossed and equipped with a KRONSEGLER emblem button and a folding clasp with security lock. The GENIUS is delivered in an exclusive dark green box with a certificate, a 12-page booklet with detailed description and a polishing cloth.
