Strong and More Durable Gold Plating
Choose a harder and more resistant gold plating technology for your Swiss watch: Automatic Watch Gold Bend Plating
Genuine gold plating wears off slowly, thinning in areas that contact objects regularly. When plating wears off, it can look faded, or if it is plating over sterling silver, the tarnish beneath can darken in spots where the gold plating has worn thinner.
Your exclusive Wryst Racer SX3 benefits from five coatings of yellow Gold Bend Plating (Yes, that's right, five layers!). This process obtained from "Bend Plating" is ZirconiumCarboNitride. Zirconium metal is vaporized and combined with Carbon and Nitrogen to produce the gold color.
It is a more molecular bonding process. It holds on better. It is used on base metals and will not fade color yearly. Most importantly, it will be considerably more scratch-resistant than any gold plating process.
Advantages of gold Bend Plating against Traditional Gold Coating:
- Durability
- Corrosion-resistant
- Longer lifetime
- Gold plated pieces can discolor within a short period
- Gold Bend Plating coatings can be ten times thicker than standard gold plating
Why Gold Bend Plating Elevates Your Mens Gold Automatic Watch?
When it comes to crafting a truly exceptional mens gold automatic watch, the choice of coating is critical. Gold Bend Plating stands out as a superior alternative to traditional gold plating.
Unlike standard methods, Bend Plating is more complex to apply and significantly more durable. It offers enhanced resistance to scratches, wear, and environmental damage. This makes it ideal for luxury timepieces that demand longevity and performance.
While slightly more sensitive to the black DLC (Diamond-Like Carbon) technology used in our black watch models, Gold Bend Plating still surpasses conventional gold plating in resilience.
It is engineered to withstand the rigors of daily wear while maintaining its brilliant finish. For high-end jewelry and premium gold automatic watches, this advanced coating ensures your investment remains pristine and visually striking for years to come.
Upgrade to Luxury Mode for Your Everyday Life
Gold Bend Plating is the preferred choice for discerning collectors and watch enthusiasts who value quality above all. Its exceptional scratch resistance and corrosion-proof properties make it the go-to solution for luxury Swiss watches.
Whether you are wearing your timepiece to the office, on the racetrack, or during a weekend getaway, the coating protects your watch from the elements while preserving its golden elegance.
Built for Performance and Style
At Wryst, we use Gold Bend Plating exclusively on our mens gold automatic watches to deliver unmatched durability. This coating offers up to fifteen times more resistance than standard gold plating. It is not only corrosion-resistant and chemically inert, but it also features a low friction coefficient. This reduces wear and tear over time. Maintenance is minimal, allowing you to enjoy your timepiece without constant upkeep.
We understand that a luxury watch is more than just an accessory. It is a statement. That is why Wryst combines cutting-edge materials with advanced coating technologies to ensure your gold automatic watch performs flawlessly while looking spectacular. Every detail is designed with your budget and long-term satisfaction in mind.
Motorsport-Inspired Elegance
Wryst’s design philosophy blends the adrenaline of motorsport with the sophistication of luxury living. Our mens gold automatic watches are crafted for individuals who appreciate speed, precision, and style. The Racer SX3, for example, features the iconic Sellita SW200-1 movement. This automatic caliber is known for its reliability and smooth operation. The movement, a close relative of the renowned ETA2824, can be admired through the transparent case back. It adds a mechanical heartbeat to your wristwear.
Wearing a gold automatic watch from Wryst is like wearing a piece of high-performance art. It is a jewelry-grade timekeeper with a soul, built to elevate your presence and reflect your passion for excellence.
Bold Dial That Comes Alive
The Racer SX3’s perpetual second hand sweeps across the dial with fluid motion, creating a dynamic visual experience. This feature spans the entire face of the watch, giving it a sense of energy and life. If you have ever dreamed of owning a luxury watch that feels alive, this is it.
The dial itself is a masterpiece of contrast and depth. A crisp white background is accented with gold-colored indexes and hands, creating a bold yet refined aesthetic. Black, white, grey, and yellow gold elements come together in a harmonious design that is both busy and balanced. Inspired by motorsport engineering, the hour hand mimics the look of dented wheels and gear components. This adds a rugged touch to the elegance.
A date window positioned at 3 o’clock completes the dial, offering practical functionality without compromising style. This mens gold automatic watch is not just a timepiece. It is a celebration of movement, design, and individuality.
A Designer Statement Piece
The automatic Wryst Racer SX3 is developed, engineered, produced, and assembled with the highest possible watchmaking standards and know-how. Owner at Wryst and veteran Swiss watch designer Jacques Fournier has two objectives: Offer perfect quality in the making and a unique alternative to the saturated horological industry. Visually the Wryst timepieces are exceptional, and many people are delighted to find out they even exist. All our models benefit from sapphire crystal.
Original Manufacturer Oscillating Weight
Wryst opted for an original manufacturer's watch part on the Racer collection. There are several reasons for this. An essential aspect of a mechanical watch is the rotor, technically known as oscillating weight.
Removing and refitting the rotor can somehow weaken this critical part. Also, the rotor's weight is significant, as any tooling or engravings applied to this part can modify the overall weight of the rotating part and, therefore, affect timekeeping and accuracy. Furthermore, if the rotor is altered in any way whatsoever, this also causes issues with the Manufacturer's warranty.
Two Different Ways to Wind your Mechanical Watch
Manual Winding of an automatic:
Automatic watches work with the winding of a spring which relaxes and activates the movement. The spring does not unwind all at once but instead transmits its force slowly and evenly. A mechanical system called "escapement" was developed for this purpose.
This system allows the energy of the spring to enter the movement only in multiple small pulses. Precisely calibrated cogs transmit force to the movement at the many places needed to the hour, minute, and second hands, to the rotating discs for the calendar indications.
Hundreds of parts are needed to achieve this result. On wristwatches, they often have to be microscopic, and on luxury watches, they are, in most cases, as in the past, cut, smoothed, and polished by hand.
On mechanical wristwatches, there are two principles for winding the spring. The first, the oldest, is also the simplest: manual winding. Initially, a small key was used, gradually replaced by a crown on the side of the case, turned between the thumb and forefinger to wind the watch. To set the time, pull the crown out slightly.
The manual labor involved in producing valuable automatic watches often makes them expensive, if not inaccessible. For the first time in the watch industry history, Wryst provides a small series of precision timekeepers at a more affordable price than ever.
The wrist as a winder:
The wrist movements have repercussions on the mechanical watch movement, which winds the mainspring in tiny impulses. Automatic winding is also possible thanks to the oscillating weight.
Sometimes it can be prudent to hand-wind the automatic movement by hand a few times since you must wind the watch to start running. This will help the timepiece run on its power reserve.
From an external point of view, automatic watches differ little from manually wound watches: they are, for the most part, a little thicker because the rotor, which must be able to turn freely around the central axis, is placed on metal.
The rotor moves whenever the wrist changes the position of the watch. This involves transmitting the oscillations of the rotor to a spring. The rotor must make about 150 revolutions to allow a single rotation of the spring shaft.
