JeanRichard - DIVERSCOPE LPR
JeanRichard release a new version of their DIVERSCOPE with an innovative method for indicating power-reserve.
This robust and reliable sporty model is powered by a 26-jewel automatic JR 1010 movement, based on the in-house made JR 1000 movement launched in 2004 and successively enriched since then with nine different evolutions. It features a balance oscillating at a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour and ensuring a 48-hour power reserve.
CLARITY & ORIGINALITY
The extremely readable opaline black dial features a date display at 7.30, black & white hour and minute hands filled with a luminescent substance, along with luminescent-rimmed hour-markers and Arabic numerals. Among the latter, the number 12 stands in a particular way, since it empties and fills to provide a highly original linear power-reserve indication from which the model draws its 'LPR' code name.
Like many successful designs, the technique behind this distinctive aesthetic and technical feature is surprisingly simple: a plate covered with a luminescent substance is linked to a cam via a conveyor support and a connecting rod, and this plate rises successively as the movement is wound and the numerals become white – meaning the power reserve is full. Much like a petrol gauge, this linear power-reserve then vividly displays the gradual depletion of the energy supply.
Delivered with two straps – one in rubber and the other in a Kevlar® fabric – fastened by a satin-finished folding steel clasp with a double pushbutton security system, this is a watch clearly built for action and ready to accompany sports enthusiasts in their accomplishments both underwater and on dry land.
