The Prelude is everything we believe should represent a premium entry-level automatic timepiece. Our machining is precise to the micrometer, ensuring a beautiful combination of polished and brushed finishes that looks pristine even under intense magnification. All the hallmarks of a premium watch are present: top quality steel construction, on-the-fly adjustment of the bracelet, additional leather strap, anti-reflective coating, water-tight sealing, and a beautifully bright lume.
But we didn't stop at industry-standard bells and whistles. We wanted to go further. Each watch is shipped with a one-of-a-kind Certificate of Authenticity boasting a number of security features. There is hidden UV text that can only be revealed with a blacklight. Guilloche patterns with anti-copy marks. Hand-pressed wax seals from our workshop. And a number of "secret" features as well.
Finally, we do an in-house regulation of each movement, running it through 8 different positions under identical conditions and fine-tuning until the movement reaches peak accuracy and precision. All of our testing and regulation data is available to you in the timegraphing sheet included with your watch.
