About the Ressence Type 8 Collection
Over the years, Ressence have consistently pushed the boundaries of conventional horology, and in 2022, they introduced the Type 8, expanding their vision of simplified yet sophisticated watchmaking. Launched as an entry-level model, the Type 8 aims to offer the quintessential Ressence experience with a more accessible design. It was conceived to streamline the watch’s functionality and aesthetics, stripping away unnecessary complications to create a pure expression of timekeeping. The launch of Type 8 marked a significant moment for Ressence, as it focused on offering a minimalist, lightweight timepiece without compromising their commitment to innovation and craftsmanship.
Design And Features
The Type 8 continues Ressence’s tradition of rethinking design by offering a highly minimalist approach. Crafted from lightweight Grade five titanium, the 42.9mm case offers durability while maintaining comfortable wear. The nearly lugless design, combined with the slim 11mm profile, ensures the watch sits securely on the wrist, making it ideal for daily wear. A combination of polished and matte finishes on the case enhances the overall sleek look making it a handsome-looking dress watch, while the barely-there bezel allows the domed sapphire crystal to create a fluid, uninterrupted line across the dial. The dial itself is a study in simplicity, following Ressence’s signature rotating disc display. The outer disc indicates minutes, while the inner disc rotates to show the hours, both of which move smoothly in an orbit-like manner.
The cobalt blue and sage green dial, with its matte finish, adds a sense of depth and modernity. The cobalt blue dial, with its deep and rich hue, offers a modern and bold look, while the sage green dial presents a more subdued, earthy tone. Powering the Type 8 is the ROCS 8 movement, based on the reliable ETA 2892-A2. This movement features a unique gear train that drives the rotating discs, providing a 36-hour power reserve. Despite its pared-back appearance, the movement maintains Ressence’s commitment to technical ingenuity, encapsulating the brand’s vision of modern horology.
ABOUT THE MOVEMENT
The calibre ROCS 8 drives the hours, minutes, and a unique orbital display in Ressence's innovative timepieces. This movement is powered by a customised and reinforced ETA 2892/2 base calibre, enhanced with Ressence’s patented Orbital Convex System (ROCS). This mechanism utilises rotating discs instead of traditional hands, offering a visually dynamic way to read time. The ROCS 8 features a convex dial that not only enhances aesthetics but also provides intuitive readability. With a robust construction, this self-winding movement boasts 31 jewels and 20 gears, operating at a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour and delivering a 36-hour power reserve.
