NEW Martin Braun 42mm EOS Sunrise/Sunset functions

Since its introduction in 2002, the striking EOS Collection has caught the attention of watch aficionados and trade press spanning the globe. Not only is the appearance of the EOS model so unostentatiously spectacular, so is the technology. A daring design, a simple concept, and a complex solution have made the EOS one of today’s most sought-after timepieces in the world of fine watchmaking.

Practical and attractive at the same time, EOS models feature a register on either side of the dial that indicates the times of sunrise and sunset at the wearer’s locality. This is made possible by individually fitting each watch with a personal dial for the degree of latitude and longitude at the wearer’s location. Needless to say, this amount of personal attention to each watch creates a very limited production." (from the Martin Braun homepage)

The cams (eyes) at '5' and '7' are rhodium-plated and held in place by a set of tempered-blue screws. The crossed hands stemming from them point to registers on either side of the dial. These registers are EOS' sunrise and sunset indicators, which must be reset to the latitude and longitude of your hometown or another location of your choice.
