F.P.Journe Centigraphe Platinum 44 mm | The Hour Glass Australia

Centigraphe 44mm Platinum

The hand-wound mechanical movement of the Centigraphe indicates elapsed times from a 100th of a second to 10 minutes, visible on 3 dials, each with a time scale in black and red. The case of 44 mm diameter and 11 mm thick with bezel inlaid with ceramic encloses the manual winding 1506 movement made in Aluminium Alloy for the Titanium version and in 18K Rose Gold for the 18K 6N Gold and Platinum versions. Patented chronograph mechanism A second patent was granted for the mechanism’s ingenious configuration, which effectively isolates the chronograph from the timekeeping function. This means the balance amplitude is unaffected when the chronograph is running. The hands of the 100th of a second and the 20 seconds counters are driven by 2 different wheel trains, themselves driven by the centre of the mainspring (patented). Another separate train of wheels, also driven by the barrel arbor, drives the 10 minutes hand.
