the high-precision manoeuvres performed by the three telescopic minute hands.The carousel is really a technical tour-de-force requiring fabrication tolerances down to three micros.Two turbines are visible about the back of the UR-202 "White Shark" and these are coupled towards the rotor to regulate the winding system of the watch.The turbines Levi's LTC2601 Ladie's watches are controlled with a three position selector lever.In mode"FREE", the two turbines spin freely enabling maximum winding from the mainspring.
In mode "Sport", both turbines spin with resistance, acting like pneumatic brakes that slow up the winding efficacy wound by 1/3rd.In mode "STOP", the turbines are locked and block the rotor from winding at all, even though Levi's LTC2601 watches can still be manually wound if required.Offered at:Chronopassion (Paris-France).The ecu haunt for enthusiasts of haute horlogerie, where they talk micro-mechanics with love and passion.
