This watch was first conceived in the early 1990’s by Mr. Philippe Dufour for Mr. Daniel Roth. The idea was to create a calendar that would be totally self adjusting, and unlike all other wrist watch calendar mechanisms be “instant” in its function. This means that all the dials indicating the displays of the perpetual calendar does not have any pre-movement of the hands, or dials, instead everything moves in an instant at the stroke of midnight, faster than the human eye can detect. |
