True, Jumping, Dead Seconds

- This is a short introduction to watches with second hands that jump from second to second rather than smoothly flow from one to the other. In mechanical watches, these deadbeat second are relatively rare while all quartz watches have jumping seconds. Very interesting movements are requird for mechanical seconds to be ‘true,’ ‘dead’ or ‘jump.'
Interesting clip. Thank you.
I have a Rolex True Beat Ref. 6556 and a Habring Jumping Second Pilot!
Very interesting subject Bill. My favorites of the bunch is the JLC Geophysic and that Dial Side Arnold & Son. Thanks for the great video Bill.
Paul gerber has one as well. Switching between sweeping and jumping
Great video Bill. True/Dead seconds are by far my favourite complication.
Ooh, maybe a Geneva Seal Best Buys", like the Roger Dubuis La Monegasque, second hand, under $8k
Always enjoy your videos Bill ,At those prices I'll stick with the quartz jumping seconds !!
$21,700 RRP vs. $7,300 street? Holy Moly, wouldn't a manufacturer adjust their expectations at that point?
The Arnold & Son TBR is also a Grand Seconde. The CBT is very cool, as the chrono second and dead beat second chase each other around the dial. Great video.
Posted a comment on your lovely Facebook page linking to the TBR and here I see you talking about it on your YT! Love this page and interacting you bill, keep it up!
Funny you talking about Arnold & Son sent you a link to one on Instagram because didn't know how else to reach you it was a three hand manual wind for a incredible price under 5 grand and know you like high Horololgy and manual wind watches. 😁

Arnold & Son created some really interesting pieces when Sebastien Chaulmontet was leading the brand and a lot of the pieces seemed to focus on the dead beat seconds on top of other complications like the split second chronograph, the equation of time, the symmetrical Time Pyramid etc. It's a pity they didn't manage to keep him on board.
Why the large difference in list and street price?
De Bethune have a fancy jumping second watch!
I was just trying to "collect" information on dead beat seconds... And Skeleton dials, with date (so far affordable Zenith Defy Classic skeleton).
what does w-s complication shows? It s on one of the watches on video. Thny
Hey Bill, A. Lange & Söhne also has the Richard Lange Jumping Seconds, which combines a Seyfert regulator layout, a dead second, a constant-force mechanism, and an end of life indicator! Much more expensive than Arnold & Son. :(
Hey, I think Arnold & Son refers to the Breguet's best friend that invented the tourbillion.
Rather have a manual wind Chrono. JLC Geophysics a gem! Where
