The Swiss Made MV295 caliber is a self-winding mechanical movement, with 25 jewels, 28,800 vibrations per hour, and a power reserve of 40 hours. The MV295 movement, developed on a Landeron 24 basis, is a caliber of unquestionable quality, which has several functions, including bi-directional charge, machine stop is GMT function.
GMT function
The acronym GMT stands for "Greenwich Mean Time" and the function indicates the current local time in another time zone. This allows you to be constantly synchronized with distant countries, showing a additional time zone on a 24-hour scale in the clock and one fourth hand, making the GMT the perfect watch for those who love to travel.
Bezel insert in Glass BK7
The glass BK7 presents exceptional physical properties: It is lead free, relatively lighter and of higher quality than other glass crystals. Its properties of low dispersion (with Abbe numbers around 60), low refractive index (≈1.52) and high clarity make it the perfect option for making high-precision glass objects that are very durable over time. For these reasons, after a long research and development process, we have decided to produce the new ferrule inserts in this material.
The Jubilee bracelet
Meccaniche Veneziane designed one of the bracelets most appreciated in the world of watchmaking, adapting it perfectly to the shapes and finishes of the case of the Nereide model. Numerous tests have been carried out to obtain a product ergonomic is quality with satin and polished finishes. A perfect fit on the wrist is guaranteed by one butterfly clasp which makes the watch practical to use in any situation.
