Hercules Watches

Hercules offers two high-quality Swiss-made mechanical movement options for their watches, each with its own unique features and advantages:

Micro Rotor Movement: This movement is designed with a micro rotor, which is asmall automatic winding system that helps power the watch. One key benefit of this design is that it allows for a thinner overall watch profile compared to regular automatic watches that rely on the movement of your wrist to wind. Additionally,the placement of the micro rotor allows for a close fit between the movement and the anti-reflective coated sapphire caseback,giving the wearer a clear view of the intricate mechanics of the watch and the decorated bridges with Superluminova-filled height lines. 

Hand Wound Movement with Two Barrels: The hand-wound movement with two barrels provides an impressive 120 hours (5days) of power reserve. Hand-wound movements are appreciated by watch enthusiasts for their simplicity and the connection they offer to the watch’s inner workings. Through the caseback, you can get an up-close view of the movement,including engraved height lines representing the Nanga Parbat mountain, which are filled with Swiss BGW9 SuperLuminova for a striking glow in the dark. 

Furthermore, each Hercules watch is assembled by hand, emphasizing the craftsmanship andattention to detail that goes into its production. To ensure accuracy and precision, the complete watch undergoes testing by Timelab in Switzerland to receive an official “Observatoire Chronométrique+” certification. If the watch successfully passes this test,it earns the prestigious title of a “Chronometer,” signifying its exceptional timekeeping performance.
