BELCHENGRUPPE RANGE 1247 120° MITTERNACHT
Limited to 50 pieces
The deep black brushed surface accentuates the distinctive case and underlines its architectural character. The combination of the case colour “MITTERNACHT” with the bright orange of the strap underlines the striking design and the watch becomes a symbol of the continuous change between day and night.
The "120°" dial divides the hour into three sections. It is therefore a time span of 20 minutes and not a quarter of an hour, which always seems to pass too quickly anyway. At the same time, it represents the three daily stages: morning, afternoon and night.
Our highly contrasting watches play with archetypes and thus shed new light on the known.
The DCL-coated case takes up the shapes of classic watches, but creates an independent character through clear facets and edges. The shape is cut from the block, the curves are reduced to a minimum, the watches appear almost brutal at first glance. Nevertheless, the design seems pleasantly familiar thanks to the play with known basic types.
The bracelet comes with quick release spring bars and has a single-sided locking seam on the crown side, typical of Belchengruppe.
We use Sellita calibers in our watches. Like our watchmaker, Sellita is based in La Chaux-de-Fonds and is one of the largest and best-known Swiss movement manufacturers.
An automatic calibre SW290-1 in the Premium (Top) version runs in the 1247 120°. The date ring is printed exclusively with the Belchen Grotesk font, Belchengruppe's in-house font. Equipped with 31 jewels, Incabloc shock protection and a frequency of 28,800 A/H (4 Hz), it has a power reserve of at least 38 hours with an average rate deviation of ±4 seconds per day.
And if something needs to be repaired: spare parts are available free of charge, any watchmaker can order them and get your favourite timepiece back in working order.
OUR WATCHES ARE AWARDED
Bauhaus design, Ulm School or minimalism - the design of the Belchengruppe goes far beyond that. We interpret archetypal design elements in a humorous and subtle way - this is how we create the design of a new generation. And for this we have received awards from international design juries.
