    This stunning Reverso Hybris Mechanica Calibre 185 is a highly complicated watch. In this video I will try to explain it simply. It is the worlds first 4 face watch and features 11 complications total:
    * Face 1: Hour - Minute, Tourbillon (indicating the Second), Instantaneous Perpetual Calendar, Grande Date, Day, Month, Leap Year, Night & Day
    * Face 2: Jumping Digital Hour, Minute, Minute Repeater (with system avoiding dead time)
    * Face 3: Northern Hemisphere Moon Phase, Draconic Lunar Cycle (height of the moon), Anomalistic Lunar Cycle (apogee and perigee), Month, Year
    * Face 4: Southern Hemisphere Moon Phase

    This is like entering a men's locker room, undoing your towel, and slamming it down on the bench to show off. JLC knew how this watch would re-up, once again, consumer confidence in JLC

      Every couple of years, they remind us all why that is the case indeed :-) Look also at the not so old HYBRIS MECHANICA
      CALIBRE 179 for example, saw that one in the metal and just blows you away. But this one is imho on an entirely different level.

    This was by far the highlight of this year’s W&W. Whilst Rolex (I know it’s a different price range compared to this watch) delivered essentially the same Explorer 2, JLC really went all out to celebrate an anniversary. Aesthetically it combines classical Reverso design with beautiful “artwork”. Really cool

    • @degriff

    How does the moon phase on the cradle operate? Or does it at all? It’s mind boggling horology.

    • @degriff
      @degriff  3 года назад +8

      Excellent question. It certainly does work, not just fancy decoration :-) It is a very ingenious system. Every day at midnight, a pin extends out of the main case movement to activate a mechanical corrector in the cradle, which then advances the cradle displays. The mechanism driving the cradle displays is set directly into the cradle itself.
