The Renaissance Seven Time Zones is a new mechanical Aerowatch model that in addition to local time also displays the time in 6 of the world’s major cities. The watch is a mechanical timekeeping instrument is integrated in a renaissance-style case that reflects the historic conventions of symmetry and proportion.
Based on a manually wound Unitas caliber, the watch is housed in a satin-finished stainless steel case and has a diameter of 44 mm. To match the case, the silver dial has been endowed with a sunburst finish that reflects incident light and contrasts against the six black 24-hour subsidiary dials. The watch is eminently legible. A pusher at 10 o’clock makes it possible to conveniently set the hands to local time at the owner’s current location. The displays of the subsidiary dials remain unaffected. This adjustment is needed only when the owner travels across time zones.
Contrary to other multiple-time-zone watches, the watch offers unparalleled convenience for frequent flyers and people who communicate on a global scale. The fine-tipped hands precisely indicate the time on each of the subsidiary dials. And users who often make telephone calls across time zones will appreciate the 24-hour format that tells them whether it is day or night at the other end of the line. This feature offers genuine added value.
