DeWitt has few watch series as having a history of 6 years. However, no one will look down upon this brand which is established by the the later generation of Napoleon brothers. DeWitt made an instant hit at the very beginning and is still highly hot today. Will DeWitt keep its popularity? Here come four watch models from DeWitt.
Academia Tourbillon Force Constante Rubies
Academia Tourbillon Force Constante Rubies was launched in 2006 and became the representative work of DeWitt. All mechanical movement produce different torque force when spring drum tenses and relaxes. The torque force discrepancy may cause the inaccuracy of watch. The watch-makers from DeWitt created the constant force system and solved the said problem. The system has gotten patent and pushed DeWitt to another high at the same time.
Academia Tourbillon Force Constant uses DW 8003 manual wound movement. The constant force system, firstly, collects power through a group of cross inertia wheels and store it into a constant force mechanism. Then it passes the power once per 10 seconds to tourbillon system to drive the spring at the bottom of cross inertia wheel to ensure that the force power sent to the tourbillon keeps constant.
On the dial, there shows the constant power window at 8 o’clock while the tourbillon window appears at 5 o’clock. The hour-minute dial is located at 12 o’clock. When first introduced in 2006, the watch had only platinum case and was limited to 25 pieces. In 2007, the 18k rose gold and white gold versions were added to the collection with delicate hand-carved grid patterns. Diamond may be inlaid on the bezel, case, lug, crown and buckle of these two models. In addition, there is a model features white gold case with rubies decoration. Any compliment pales before the beauty of those rubies. The only pity is that to set rubies, DeWitt’s iconic “imperial pillar” bezel and case has been abandoned.
Academia Quantieme Perpetual Sport
If you are tired of the shape of regular perpetual calendar watch, the Academia Quantieme Perpetual Sport may be a nice solution. This perpetual calendar watch is powered by DW 7004 automatic movement which has Geneva seal. The dial has equipped with traditional three hands at the center, date and day of week display at 3 and 5 respectively, moon phase at 6 and month and leap year indicator at 12. The dial is presented on carbon fibre while date and day of week indicators receive skeleton treatment. The case is made from titanium, rubber and 18k white gold. The sapphire crystal case back reveals the movement.

How to get one chronograph watch that could highlight your own personality when there are so many chronograph watches in the market? Acadenus Chronographe Sequentiel Sport, the chronograph from DeWitt, makes it stand out with a delicate small seconds dial at 9 o”clock with target design. Connecting to the small seconds is a fan design that looks like windmill. When small seconds subdial runs, it shows a scene of movement. The 43mm case is crafted from titanium and is adorned with 18k rose gold and rubber. Either black or white rubber strap is available for this exquisite and sporty chronograph.
