Rotating Disk

The rotating aluminium disk at 6H is the main feature of the Watch as its rotation represents the extension of the perennial philosophy transmitted from generation to generation

Wyler Hintz

The pocket Watch ‘Wyler Eugen Hintz | Fagaras’ was produced in the interwar period by the Swiss Watch manufacturer Wyler SA in Biel/Bienne, the same place where we are currently located. Wyler SA was a company founded in 1925 who became well known in the watchmaking world thanks to their patent obtained for the invention of the balance wheel protection known as Incaflex

The integration of the Solar Disk into the Peren Hintz Watch emphasize the continuity of the perennial philosophy from ancient Transylvania to present. The disk is the exact representation of the 'Andesite Sun' converted from meters to millimetres
