Ahead of the SIHH 2018 salon in Geneve, the house of DeWitt presents the Academia Endless Drive, equipped with a rotating endless screw that can be admired at the center of the dial. Endless screw, an obvious nod to the world of automotive mechanics, is fixed so that it can’t move longitudinally as it rotates. Instead, this stationary screw forces the mechanical part to advance. As explained by DeWitt’s founder Count Jérôme de Witt, the curves of the screw in unidirectional movement symbolize irreversible rotation, which is, by itself, an alleg...

The DeWitt Academia Mathematical, a watch introduced at BaselWorld 2015, is DeWitt’s fourth concept watch. This imaginative automatic timepiece is inspired by historical mystery watches, on which certain components are hidden from the eye of the observer, so it appears like hands are floating freely above the dial, without any obvious connection to the movement. On the mystery watches, the movement is transmitted to the hands through an invisible wheel, which is typically made of transparent sapphire. In its modern-day variant, the mystery w...

Generously decorated in the spirit of haute horlogerie, the mechanism boasts the escape wheel and the anchor that are made of 18-carat yellow gold. It beats at 18’000 vibrations per hour and ensures 72 hours of...
