With its 24-hour display, the TRES 24 from BOTTA already deviates from the usual 12-hour time display. But it is also no ordinary 24-hour watch, because its hour hand moves synchronously with the position of the sun. 12 o'clock is up, 24 o'clock or 0 o'clock down.
For the second generation of the all-day watch, the dial graphics have now been made much quieter. Instead of the usual second hand, it now has the innovative second indicator and, as the name suggests, the TRES 24 plus titanium case is made entirely of titanium.
Three different titanium alloys are used for the new three-part case to ensure the best characteristics. This special case construction is currently only available from BOTTA. Like the entire watch, the second indicator is registered for "protected design".
Innovative second indicator replaces second hand for TRES 24 plus titan
BOTTA has developed the new C pointer for the new TRES 24 plus titan. It consists of a small second disc with an open circle printed on it. The opening replaces the usual second hand.
In favour of a calmer display of the progressing time, the second hand is deliberately omitted. The minimal movement of the "C" only becomes visible on closer inspection - nevertheless, half or quarter minutes can be easily estimated.
Three housing parts – three titanium alloys
Titanium is the most precious of the light metals and has numerous outstanding properties such as high strength at low weight, good dimensional stability or absolute absence of allergies. Depending on the type of titanium, one of the properties predominates. Thanks to the new three-layer structure, BOTTA has optimally combined these properties in the TRES 24 plus titanium.
For the most stressed top ring around the sapphire crystal, a particularly resistant titanium alloy is chosen, which is otherwise used in turbine and aircraft construction, for example. The central part of the housing is made of a mechanically improved version of pure titanium. The bottom itself is made of a titanium grade that is used in the medical sector.
"This case construction made of three different materials is very laborious and expensive to implement, but also provides the best wearing characteristics and further increases the service life of our watches. This makes the new case even better suited to our high standards and our philosophy," says Klaus Botta, developer of the single-hand watch and owner of BOTTA.
