I was heartbroken when I found out this was already 3 years old. But I agree; traditional watchmaking combined with new technology is pure magic. Compliant mechanical design, Topology optimisation and generative design Additive manufacturing. These will be key elements in future mechanical engineering and design, regardless of discipline.
@alabrrmrbmmr2 жыл бұрын
I feel the same way but now it is 4 years old. I'm fascinated by compliant mechanics and here I thought, wow! A product! But is there? 4 years later, Zenith has not employed this movement in any new watches. Why? Sometimes I wonder if the theory of compliant mech has only very narrow practical use case. I mean, otherwise, we would have so many consumer products that use this material science. But we don't. And here we see what looks like an amazing implementation but 4 years later and it is completely forgotten.
