In looking at the best watches I own, I noticed that most of them were running at a frequency of 3Hz (21,600 vph) or less. Not only were famous watches by Philippe Dufour and Roger Smith running at these frequencies, so too were the movements made by F.P. Journe, Kari Voutilainen, Laurent Ferrier, Marco Lang, and Jean-Marc Wiederrecht. Since the most common frequency is 4Hz, why would the top watchmakers opt for 3Hz (21,600 vph) and 2.5Hz (18,000 vph)? At the 2018 WatchTime Show, I asked some of these storied talents that question and got the answers from the watchmakers themselves.
