The electronics have absolutely no effect on the movement they only enable monitoring of the movement’s precision in a similar way that the electronic speedometer or rev counter of a car has no effect on the mechanical engine and gearboxĮMC features a deconstructed dial with four separate indications: A clockwise tour of the displays, from top left, presents the: on demand, precision indicator (instantaneous rate delta δ) ranging from-20 to + 20 seconds per day seconds dial with counter-balanced seconds hand hours and minutes and 80-hour power reserve indicator. Please note that EMC is a fully 100% mechanical watch. Electro Mechanical Control (EMC) is the world’s first precision mechanical watch in which the timing can be monitored and adjusted by the user to suit their lifestyle – EMC is fully interactive. With EMC, not only can the wearer obtain the precise timing rate on demand, they can then use that information to accurately adjust the timing of their watch to suit their own personal rhythm. EMC is the first precision mechanical watch that enables timing to be both easily monitored and easily adjusted by its owner. The challenge with EMC was in developing a mechanical watch that can be regulated by its owner to obtain the finest chronometric performance. Changes in position and temperature, and shocks, can all adversely affect isochronism (timing regularity) of a wristwatch. However, while it is one thing to regulate an accurate watch in the controlled world of a workshop, performance in the sometimes-extreme real world, i.e. Such a movement should meet specific criteria including accuracy in 5 positions between -4 seconds and +6 seconds over 24 hours. ![]() ![]() ![]() URWERK presents the EMC: The first high-end mechanical watch with “artificial intelligence”įor URWERK, a precision timepiece should have at its base a movement that is accurate, reliable and long lasting. ![]()
