TAG Heuer introduces the TAG Heuer Pendulum Concept, the first-ever mechanical movement without hairspring at the Baselworld 2010 tonight as earlier hinted.
A coiled strip of fine metal alloy, the hairspring provides usually the torque necessary for the balance wheel to oscillate and regulate its frequency. The mechanical hairspring has three serious design limitations: a mass that makes it sensitive to gravity and deforms its geometry; a material that makes it sensitive to thermal expansion; and a divergence between its geometric centre and its centre of mass.
