The new B.R.M Chronographes FF39-40 is the first automatic watch protected against both vertical and horizontal shocks
PARIS, April 14, 2022 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/--

B.R.M Chronographes brings mechanical hypertechnology to watchmaking with 
ingenious silent blocks isolators and toroid belts. B.R.M Chronographes Full 
Floating concept adopts a complex architecture employing five ribbed silent 
blocks, each 1.2 mm thick, and two 1 mm belts, whose nitrile composition is 
formed in molds specially developed in the manufacture. Together, these 
advanced materials create a floating movement that eliminates vibration and 
protects the watch's engine-like core to a degree never achieved before.

The B.R.M Chronographes mechanical movement is encased in a self-supporting 
ring of hard-anodized Fortal® HR, a high-strength, lightweight aerospace 
industry alloy, enabling the silent blocks to perfectly support the vertical 
plane. Stainless steel micro-screws, machined by material removal, compress a 
micro-fine carbon strut bar, limiting the cage's lateral displacement. 
Simultaneously, two belts ensure horizontal stability for the automatic 
movement, while the movement's cylinder, with its constant and secure motion 
control, optimizes the force of the spring and provides a power reserve of 38 
hours.

The sporting look that is a hallmark of B.R.M Chronographes timepieces is 
evident in the decorative ratchet that showcases the movement when viewed from 
directly above. The balance, machined from a bar of eloxated Fortal® HR, 
maintains perfect timekeeping in six positions. Functional yet ingenious, the 
B.R.M Chronographes FF39-40 is a tour de force that brings state-of-the-art 
materials and technology to age-old watchmaking tradition.

Though technically complex, the shape of the B.R.M Chronographes FF39-40 evokes 
a minimalist aesthetic, expressed by an isosceles trapezoid with rounded 
corners. The result is a futuristic look, thanks in part to the brushed finish 
and black PVD treatment of the bezel. And yet the keen eye will spot a B.R.M 
Chronographes house specialty—screw-on lugs—here redesigned as cylinders.
