Noble science
Hubert Pellikaan is a firm believer in science. He likes to talk about that a lot, but he also practices what he preaches. He approaches all of his creations with the same scientific precision.
This design is inspired by the theories of Hendrik Lorenz, who gained fame as the scientific father of Albert Einstein. The relatively wide strap and lugs are also inspired by dress watches from the first half of the twentieth century.
In 1902, Lorenz received the Nobel Prize in Physics (Hubert really loves to explain you why). But what you really should know: the local time theory by Mr. Lorenz forms the main inspiration for this design.
These local times are also seen on the schales of the dial, which are different for every hand. Now that’s something to study carefully!

Watch enthousiasts will immediately recognize this movement as one of the most reliable and sturdy automatic movements from Switzerland.
At the same time the movement is also very accurate. This is the main reason why this movement has been used for decades by a lot of watch brands, some of them very famous indeed.
Still, good is not good enough for Hubert, so all the final adjustments are done by Pellikaan timing.
