THE FIRST SELF-WINDING WATCH WITH A POWER RESERVE INDICATOR.


What is the White ⚪️🔴 and the Red indicators on the dial ?

⚪️ White → Healthy Power means, the watch is fully wound, with about 40 hours of power reserve.

🔴 Red → When it turns red, the watch has less than ~10 hours left and is about to stop


More specifically:

When fully wound, the indicator shows white (often alongside “40” hours).

As the power reserve drops, the display gradually changes.

When it gets very low (around the last ~10 hours), it turns red as a warning.
