The length of time is interpreted by the free movement of the ball across the face of the watch. The ABACUS was created in the studio of the designer Roy Schafer, and is produced - in genuine Made in Germany quality- by the Erich Lacher Watch Factory, Pforzheim. The ball moves to and fro across the face of the watch with the flow of the wearer's arm movements, but as soon as the ABACUS reaches a horizontal position, the ball moves as if by magic - or at least by magnetism - to the right point in time. A high grade quartz movement steers the ball exactly across the face, protected by mineral or sapphire glass. The stainless steel case and high quality leather strap ensure that it will be pleasant to wear. The ABACUS is water-resistant to a depth of 30 meters.See less »
