The MIH Watch
\n<\/span><\/h3>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css_animation=”fadeIn”]The former conservator of MIH, Ludwig Oechslin, with his many years of experience as a watch designer has an impressive line-up of complicated wristwatches in his portfolio. His long-cherished dream, however, has always been to design a simple watch and make it accessible to the masses. This undertaking finally came to fruition through his work in the Museum (2001 \u2013 2014), the collaboration with Embassy and the designer Christian Gafner.<\/p>\n

Reduced to the max
\n<\/span><\/h3>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css_animation=”fadeInRight” css=”.vc_custom_1540969279369{padding-right: 30% !important;padding-bottom: 10% !important;padding-left: 0% !important;}” el_class=”block-text”]The watch is reduced to the absolute essentials, but without sacrificing a critical key function \u2013 the calendar. Ludwig Oechslin developed an annual calendar with only 9 (instead of usual 30-40) moving parts and the date displays in a single clear window. The annual calendar is presented using three concentric discs, which are reliably driven by the ETA Valjoux 7750. This movement is ideally suited to set the calendar discs in motion simultaneously.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Section 3″ tab_id=”1539257343806-ee1b2e5c-fa61″][vc_row_inner css=”.vc_custom_1536158021130{background-color: #000000 !important;}”][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”17589″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” css_animation=”fadeInLeft”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″ css=”.vc_custom_1536317252703{padding-top: 10% !important;padding-right: 10% !important;padding-bottom: 10% !important;padding-left: 10% !important;}”][vc_column_text css_animation=”fadeInRight”]<\/p>\n

Squaring the circle
\n<\/span><\/h3>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css_animation=”fadeInRight” css=”.vc_custom_1540969433634{padding-top: 0% !important;padding-right: 30% !important;padding-bottom: 10% !important;padding-left: 0% !important;}” el_class=”block-text”]Annual calendars are adjusted only once a year, namely at the end of February, because their mechanics do not know that this month always dances out of line. Due to their construction, their display windows are often distributed over the whole dial and therefore difficult to read. Ludwig Oechslin solved the problem by making it easy to see the date in a single, clear window. Three concentric discs achieve this presentation. The innermost shows the day of the week, the middle one the month, and the outermost the date. The date disk is switched every day at midnight by the mechanism already present in the movement. The setting of the remaining two discs, and in some instances adjustment of the date, is done via a separate mechanism. <\/span><\/p>\n

The MIH watch also has a stop feature whose push-button is located above the crown and has three functions: Start, stop and reset of the seconds as well as the minute counter, which is set into the back of the watch.<\/p>\n

Sublime Design<\/span><\/h3>\n

The dial waives any lettering or product designation. The only letterings are the date display at the 3 o\u2019clock index and the abbreviation MIH (Mus\u00e9e International Horlogerie) at 9 o\u2019clock. The dial is entirely kept in matte black to optimize the legibility of the Superluminova-coated pointers and indexes. The red mark at the end of the second hand makes the otherwise almost invisible pointer evident only where it is read: At the outer edge of the minute ring, the tip of the indicator. The housing of the 42 mm-large watch is made of titanium.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_tta_section][\/vc_tta_pageable][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1537437448603{margin-top: 5% !important;}”][vc_column width=”1\/12″ offset=”vc_col-lg-1″][\/vc_column][vc_column css_animation=”fadeIn” width=”1\/3″ css=”.vc_custom_1536926909060{padding-top: 20% !important;}” offset=”vc_col-md-3″][vc_column_text css=””]<\/p>\n

Die MIH Uhr
\n<\/span><\/h3>\n

Der Jahreskalender von Ludwig Oechslin besteht aus lediglich neun Teilen. Das Resultat sind geniale Mechanismen, die mit ihrer technischen Eleganz und reduzierten Einfachheit derzeit den Massstab im Uhrenbau setzen. Das Bundesamt f\u00fcr Kultur nahm sich dies sogar zum Anlass und kaufte sie f\u00fcr die Sammlung des Museums f\u00fcr Gestaltung in Z\u00fcrich. Die offizielle Uhr des Mus\u00e9e International d\u2019Horlogerie ist exklusiv im Museum und bei EMBASSY in Luzern und St. Moritz erh\u00e4ltlich.<\/p>\n
