PARIS, April 14, 2022 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/--

B.R.M Chronographes brings mechanical hypertechnology to watchmaking with

ingenious silent blocks isolators and toroid belts. B.R.M Chronographes Full

Floating concept adopts a complex architecture employing five ribbed silent

blocks, each 1.2 mm thick, and two 1 mm belts, whose nitrile composition is

formed in molds specially developed in the manufacture. Together, these

advanced materials create a floating movement that eliminates vibration and

protects the watch's engine-like core to a degree never achieved before.

The B.R.M Chronographes mechanical movement is encased in a self-supporting

ring of hard-anodized Fortal® HR, a high-strength, lightweight aerospace

industry alloy, enabling the silent blocks to perfectly support the vertical

plane. Stainless steel micro-screws, machined by material removal, compress a

micro-fine carbon strut bar, limiting the cage's lateral displacement.

Simultaneously, two belts ensure horizontal stability for the automatic

movement, while the movement's cylinder, with its constant and secure motion

control, optimizes the force of the spring and provides a power reserve of 38

hours.

The sporting look that is a hallmark of B.R.M Chronographes timepieces is

evident in the decorative ratchet that showcases the movement when viewed from

directly above. The balance, machined from a bar of eloxated Fortal® HR,

maintains perfect timekeeping in six positions. Functional yet ingenious, the

B.R.M Chronographes FF39-40 is a tour de force that brings state-of-the-art

materials and technology to age-old watchmaking tradition.

Though technically complex, the shape of the B.R.M Chronographes FF39-40 evokes

a minimalist aesthetic, expressed by an isosceles trapezoid with rounded

corners. The result is a futuristic look, thanks in part to the brushed finish

and black PVD treatment of the bezel. And yet the keen eye will spot a B.R.M

Chronographes house specialty—screw-on lugs—here redesigned as cylinders.

About B.R.M Chronographes

Established in 2003, the French watchmaking manufacture of B.R.M Chronographes

is the brainchild of founder Bernard Richards, a man of abiding passion for

precision mechanics. Totally independent, its workshops located on the

outskirts of Paris, B.R.M Chronographes is devoted entirely to the production

of unique pieces: all of them hand-finished and fully customizable thanks to

the manufacture's online configurator.

In 2021 the manufacture was named a Living Heritage Company (Entreprise du

Patrimoine Vivant) by the French government, in recognition of its excellence

in French craftsmanship and of its daily commitment to technological innovation

and environmental concern.
