  • Catalogue Essay

    - Ressence, a renowned watch brand headquartered in Belgium, is known for its cutting-edge designs. Established by Benoît Mintiens in 2010, the company crafts and engineers its watches in Antwerp, while production and assembly take place in Switzerland. This exceptional combination seamlessly blends Belgian design philosophy with Swiss horological heritage.

    - In 2014, at Baselworld, Ressence unveiled their remarkable Type 1 collection, which quickly captivated the industry. The Type 1 watch boasts a sleek titanium case and inward-pointing lugs, showcasing an innovative design that omits the need for a crown. Represents a revolutionary new direction in watchmaking, the dial appears devoid of moving hands however the dial does indeed rotate via Ressence's patented Orbital Convex System, with four subdials displaying hours, minutes, seconds and day. The day indicator also denotes AM/PM, finally by rotating the caseback, one can set the time and wind this mechanical marvel.

    - The present Ressence Type 1 N is further preserved in excellent condition and is further accompanied by its original guarantee, instruction manual and presentation box.
