The watch is a limited edition of 188 pieces, and it costs 9,400 Swiss francs, about €8,100. The most spectacular feature of the watch is the in-house CFB 1011 movement, visible through the sapphire caseback, with a very high-tech appearance and a peripheral rotor which leaves everything else in view. The case is 42.5 mm in diameter, 12.54 mm thick, in stainless steel. This new version of the Manero PowerReserve has a trendy blue dial, asymmetrically designed with the power reserve indicator on the right. Bucherer Manero PowerReserve – about €8,100 This version in steel with white lacquer dial costs €6,900. The case is 42 m in diameter, and it houses the self-winding UN-118 movement with a power reserve of about 60 hours. It is based on a vintage Ulysse Nardin pocket watch that has a very similar dial design. The Ulysse Nardin Marine Torpilleur is a timepiece in classic marine watch style, with a power reserve indicator at the top and a small seconds subdial at 6 o’clock. This no-frills finish reflects Oris’ commitment to making comparatively affordable watches. The sapphire caseback reveals the movement, which has a simple finish based on brushed metal surfaces. The watch is 43 mm in diameter, in stainless steel, water resistant to 5 bar. The in-house movement has a single barrel with a 1.8-metre long mainspring. The Oris Artelier Calibre 113 has a dial with an innovative calendar showing day, date, week and month, and a non-linear ten-day power reserve indicator. The movement is the self-winding ETA calibre C07.671, which achieves its 80-hour power reserve through an improved, reduced-friction escapement, and a mainspring made using a new alloy that allows for a smaller central arbour and hence more room for the spring itself. The eight-day power reserve indicator includes a red sector indicating that it’s time to put the watch on, or wind it. The DiaMaster Power Reserve by Rado is is in high-tech ceramic, fairly large at 43 mm.
THE ALL OTOMATIC POWER RESERVE CHRONOGRAPHE NO EXPANSIVE PLUS
Price €1,580 inclusive of VAT, plus shipping. The watch is powered by the ETA 2892-2, modified with the addition of the module for the big date and the power reserve indicator. It is 40.5 mm in diameter, 11 mm thick, in stainless steel. The result is a watch with a very classical appearance, with a touch of asymmetry provided by the power reserve indicator. This watch has something of Breguet’s looks, with its Roman numerals, the silver-colour dial with different types of guilloché patterns, the blued Breguet hands, and the caseband with vertical fluting. Here is a selection of watches in which the power reserve indicator is the principal complication. It also helps the user keep the watch in a state of winding that ensures maximum precision. This is a useful feature in the case of a hand-wound movement, but it is increasingly appearing on automatic watches, where it can be helpful as a reminder to put the watch on, or wind it, if you’ve left it in the drawer for a day or so.
