Let us look at two facts: First, the Rolex replica watches is assembled and then tested on the Precision Observatory’s precision timepiece. The average daily error is -2/+2 seconds, which is more than twice as accurate as the average Observatory certified precision timepiece. Since July 1, 2015, all Rolex watches have a five-year warranty, setting a new benchmark for the watchmaking industry… So how does the brand achieve such precision and reliability? ? Part of the answer lies in the speed governing mechanism.

Of course, the result is not accidental. Rolex has a unique watch and movement manufacturing method, which is also called “Rolex”, the main components required for its watches are produced by the brand. In general, specific technology solutions are continuously applied throughout the process. A proven solution will be used as the new standard. Therefore, even if it is usually hidden under the cover of the watch, the Rolex movement is still at a glance. We can identify the Rolex movement by looking at the speed governing mechanism. This is because the Rolex speed control mechanism has distinctive logo characteristics.

The speed governing mechanism is the core of the movement and the most important part of the watch. The governor mechanism includes an escapement and an oscillator that defines the speed of the watch, also known as the “time guard.” Therefore, Rolex has also developed patent solutions in this area. Listed below are some of the most typical and conspicuous Rolex movement features, all involving the power core – the speed governing mechanism.

The Rolex replica watch has two main ways of adjusting the mechanical movement. The most common way is to determine the effective length and speed of the hairspring by sliding the pins of the balance spring by means of a regulator.

Rolex replica watch Another solution is to use a cardless balance. The length of the hairspring is constant, and the watchmaker can move the screw or weight on the balance wheel to change the inertia of the balance wheel instead of making a fuss about the length of the balance spring. The cardless balance is considered an advanced solution to improve accuracy by circumventing certain risks. In addition, the non-calibre balance has better impact resistance, and the impact may cause the regulator to move.

This is also the solution adopted by Rolex. Highly precision machined balance wheel (for improved stability) with two pairs of (four) gold fine adjustment screws for precise adjustment. For example, adjusting the screws inward (pairs) will reduce the inertia of the balance and increase the rate, and vice versa.

The internal parts of the Rolex replica watch can be magnetized. For a long time, watchmakers have been trying to counteract magnetic fields with the help of soft iron inner shells. However, this solution is ineffective for high-intensity magnetic fields and increases the thickness and weight of the case.

Recently, research has focused on the movement itself, and more specifically on the choice of balance wheel strategy components. In this respect, Rolex is one of the few brands that produce hairsprings on its own, and is one of the few manufacturers that can use paramagnetic/magnetic materials.

Rolex replica watches developed the patented “Blue Parachrom Hairspring” and introduced it to the 4130 calibre (cosmic metric Daytona watch) in 2000. The unique cerium-zirconium alloy has diamagnetic properties and remains stable under temperature changes. In 2005, Rolex adopted a new patented technology to improve the surface of Parachrom hairspring and further improve the long-term stability of the hairspring. In 2014, Rolex replica watches also introduced silicon hairsprings in the 2236 movement (for assembly of ladies’ watches). Of course, Rolex’s diamagnetic achievements not only stay on the gossamer level. For example, the balance pivot is also specially designed to optimize diamagnetic performance.

Rolex replica watch The shape and connection of the hairspring determines how it stretches and contracts. Most watches use a flat spiral hairspring, but the hairspring has other shapes. Breguet bends the outer end of the hairspring and places it near the pivot of the balance. This allows the hairspring to “breath” symmetrically and evenly, effectively improving isochronism. Rolex replica watches used the production process of the Breguet end curve, and optimized it, named Rolex last circle hairspring.

Traditionally, the balance wheel is fixed under the splint and one end is fixed. In the modern Rolex replica watches movement, the balance bridge is designed with a straddle design and fixed at both ends to stabilize the oscillator accurately. The rigidity of the bridge plate also greatly improves the impact resistance of the balance wheel.

The pivot and jewel bearings of the Rolex replica watch (and sometimes other key components) are particularly fragile and can easily be damaged after impact. With the cushioning device, the gemstone is mounted on the spring, leaving a cushioning space for shock absorption. The Swiss watchmaking industry has two main anti-shock systems – Incabloc and KIF. Some manufacturers use their own systems. For many years, Rolex replica watches has always favored the KIF anti-shock system. In 2005, the brand developed an exclusive cushioning device called Paraflex and patented it. The Paraflex cushioning device has a unique geometry that is instantly visible. According to Rolex, this innovative spring geometry increases the efficiency of the cushioning by 50% while retaining the precision timepiece performance of the balance.

In theory, the higher the vibration frequency of the movement, the more precise it is (of course, the speed must be stable first). However, while improving the benefits of the core vibration band, there are also some disadvantages – for example, more friction or less power storage. Almost all Hyundai Rolex movements have a frequency of 28,800 beats per hour (4 Hz), which the brand considers to be the best compromise between high precision regulation and reliability. In the 1990s, Rolex replica watches assembled the improved El Primero movement for the Rolex Daytona replica watch, but reduced the frequency from 5 Hz to 4 Hz.

Rolex replica watch The Chronergy escapement was first used in the 3255 movement (2015 Day Calendar 40) and is an optimized version of Rolex’s Swiss lever escapement. The goal of Rolex engineers is to increase the power efficiency of the escapement while retaining its reliability. The ratio of the length between the escapement ring tooth and the pallet fork gemstone is just the opposite. Now the thickness of the escapement jewel is only half of the previous one, and the contact surface of the escapement tooth is twice as large. The components of the escapement are no longer aligned, but are slightly offset to increase the leverage. The pallet fork and escape wheel are machined with high precision using LIGA technology, and the escape wheel has a slit design that reduces inertia. In addition, the parts are made of nickel-phosphorus and are not affected by magnetic fields. Rolex Rolex replica watches said that the efficiency of the escapement system increased by 15%, and the power storage of the 3255 movement was nearly half.

It is said that watchmaker Arab Han-Louis Breguet once said: “Give me the perfect oil, I will give you the perfect watch.” Rolex replica watches does not often promote technological progress, but the brand official website released some interesting news. “Rolex developed a new exclusive lubricant, self-synthesis, and its service life and stability have improved significantly over time.” The brand remains silent on development progress, so we know so much now, but lubrication work And the Epilamage coating is really important for Rolex.
