The present watch is the Ressence Type 1\u00b2 (Squared) in stainless steel with a silver dial\u2014an elegant, architectural take on Beno\u00eet Mintiens\u2019 handless time display. Its 41 mm cushion\u2011shaped 316L steel case (11.5 mm thick) is topped by a domed sapphire crystal, framing a monochrome convex dial whose indications are engraved and filled with Super\u2011LumiNova for crisp legibility.<\/p>\n
At its core is ROCS 1.3 (Ressence Orbital Convex System), an ingenious mechanical module driven by the minute axle of a customized automatic base. Instead of traditional hands, rotating discs choreograph the time: the fixed outer minute track is read by a pointer on the main disc, while three inclined bi\u2011axial satellites display hours, running seconds, and the day of the week (with intuitive weekend highlights and a day\u2011progress arc). A day\/night indicator completes the information at a glance.<\/p>\n
Crownless by design, the Type 1\u00b2 is set and wound via a retractable lever on the caseback\u2014preserving the pure silhouette and enhancing comfort on the wrist. Water resistance is 10 m, emphasizing its refined, dress\u2011leaning intent. The watch is delivered on an alligator leather strap with ardillon buckle, complementing the silver dial\u2019s cool, modern palette.<\/p>\n
