At the Inhorgenta 2020, the timepiece manufacturer Erwin Sattler presented four exclusive innovations. Jürgen Kohler, Head of Development at the company, showed and explained these noble pieces to me in detail in a video interview on February 14, 2020. In the first part, he shows the Aperia S 70 with a 1/2-hour striking mechanism (RRP 12,200 euros). Then comes the Rotalis 24 watch winder for 24 automatic wristwatches (RRP 89,900 euros). The new clock kit for the table clock Mechanica M3 (RRP from 3100 euros) will be shown next. Then earlier clock kits are explained. This is followed by the new mechanical wristwatch Time Commander Bronze (RRP 2450 euros) and finally, as a highlight for 2018, the anniversary wall pendulum clock Opus Perpetual with a "perpetual calendar" (RRP 118,000 euros).
