GARRICK – S2 Deadbeat Seconds 42mm Limited Edition 2024
True to Garrick’s mandate of elevating homegrown British watchmaking, the Norwich-based artisan brand is now introducing one of the most esoteric of complications in the Garrick S2 Deadbeat Seconds. The new Garrick S2 deadbeat seconds is the latest timepiece to leave the confines of our workshop. The watch is handcrafted in-house by Master Watchmaker Stuart Smith. Each component stands testament to Smith’s unwavering pursuit of excellence.

Each movement is built from the ground-up – no adapting pre-assembled movements here – finished with frosted gold, black gold or rhodium plated bridges with mirror polished, engraved or hand bevelled cocks. Only then is it placed in the timelessly handsome S2 case.

Both versions are available with frosted or engine turned finishes.
The engine-turned dial, sometimes termed 'guilloché', is an exemplar of hand craftsmanship and is produced entirely in-house on one of Garrick’s historic rose and straight-line engines.

It takes around five days to build and finish the dial of the Garrick S2 Deadbeat Seconds.
A chapter ring, framing the centrally positioned, engine-turned motif, sits on a higher level and is adorned with a circular-grained pattern. The hours are denoted with thermally blued Roman numerals, while a chemin de fer facilitates the read-off of minutes and seconds. The lancine hands, again made in-house, feature faceted edges, augmenting readability. Clients can choose from polished, brushed or thermally blued steel hands.
It takes around five days to build and finish the dial of the Garrick S2 Central Seconds. However, it is the company’s belief that haste seldom yields greatness.

Upholding the design language of the company’s popular Portsmouth model, the dial includes a large aperture at 6 o’clock. This opening grants views of the balance wheel oscillating to and fro. The mainplate can be specified in frosted gold plate or rhodium plate with perlage decoration.

The Calibre UT-GO6 can be viewed via the exhibition caseback. The rim of the balance wheel is made of a patented anti-magnetic alloy called Sircumet. The rate of the movement is altered by adjusting the timing screws on the balance. These screws are set inboard, mitigating air turbulence and, in so doing, augmenting precision.
