Breguetstyle dial from Bock & Schupp, but basically they were the same watches. This was also when I first met Mr. Miguel garcia, who was sales manager for Sellita at the time. He was in Hong Kong for the watch fair and he hosted a dinner. It had been recommended to us that we attend, so we gladly accepted his invitation. Aletta: In those days, various suppliers advertised for one another by word of mouth. It was very nice. They would say, “go here” or “go there, you'll find the help you need.” Peter: Mr. garcia suggested we use selfwinding caliber 2846 in our mechanical watches. It's a relatively thick movement with a balance that oscillates at a frequency of three hertz. Nonetheless, it was rather costly for us. Then, if not before, we had to face the question: “How do we want to proceed?” (2) Aletta: We discussed it with Mr. garcia and we realized that the plate of the 2846 could be pierced to make the balance visible, thus showing that it is indeed a mechanical movement. Peter: No sooner said than done. Sellita sent us a few movements with cutout plates. We made the dials for those watches ourselves. The apertures weren't symmetrical, which didn't look very good. No Fields Found.
