Ochs und Junior has launched three perpetual calendars that bring the Swiss brand’s disruptive, simplified design language to the most classical of complications.
The Calendario Cent’anni (CCA), or Hundred Year Calendar, is presented in three different colorways and displays date, month, leap year and running seconds, without relying on the traditional perpetual calendar arrangement of three sub-dials in a 3/6/9 configuration. The two centrally mounted hands, displaying hours and minutes, are the only traditional indications present.
Running seconds is presented as a small rotating disc at the six o’clock position, while 31 square apertures, set into the dial in a spiral formation, indicate the date. The month is displayed using a central disc, rotating inside a scale of 12 indices and leap year aligns once every four years, using a smaller, concentrically mounted disc.
