The Wyler Genève watch company presents a chronograph for Baselworld 2007 that pays tribute – both inside and out – to the pioneering genius of the watchmaker Paul Wyler, who founded the company in 1896.
The Wyler Genève Chronograph features a triple protection system consisting of Wyler’s most significant invention, the Incaflex balance wheel, coupled with a contemporary anti-shock case and a form of crown protection that is unique in the world of watchmaking.
The first element in Wyler Genève’s triple protection system is the contemporary case design, which is a masterpiece of miniature engineering.
The watch movement itself is ensconced in a titanium case, which is in turn framed in a lightweight but ultra-strong carbon fibre construction. The individual components of the watch case are then screwed to this central framework, which is cushioned by tiny springs and functions just like a car’s suspension.
