Prologue

 
The beginning of a story

Thanks to the AHCI I was able to present my first creation at Baselworld 2010. Many books begin their stories with a prologue. I decided to begin my story with the “Prologue” watch. It took almost two years to go from a passionate idea to a finished product. The “Prologue” is equipped with a black ring that rotates around the entire watch case. All three basic functions of a normal crown-function are easily accessible by the selector located on the case at four o’clock. Pure and authentic lines, aesthetic simplicity and mechanical ingenuity; this is how the “Prologue” has been described since its appearance.

The world’s first lateral winding mechanism. Press the large selector button to cycle through
the wind, date and time functions.
Enjoy the smooth turn and crisp click of the large
lateral wheel.
