Formex Essence ThiryNine Swiss Automatic Chronometer with Green Malachite Dial #0333-1-6690-100

The ThirtyNine watch is a slightly smaller version Formex’s best selling Essence collection of watches. It was created because the Formex customer base asked for it. The ThirtyNine comes with the same detailed case finishing as the original model, and it features an officially COSC-certified mechanical Swiss caliber automatic movement and other unique Essence features. The Essence ThirtyNine has a patented Case Suspension System, a waterproof case, a COSC-certified Swiss Automatic movement, and flawless hand-finished surfaces. On top of that, unique features, such as Formex’s patented Micro-Adjustment System, will make the Essence exceptionally comfortable to wear on your wrist.

The collection’s latest addition is a captivating green dial which is made from the precious stonemalachite. The name is said to derive from the Ancient Greek word ‘malache’, which means mallow, asthe stone closely resembles the color of the leaves of the mallow plant. Malachite’s spiritual meaning isone of transformation and is said to be the ‘Essence of Joy’. Without going too deep into its metaphysicalproperties, we feel that by just looking at the malachite’s swirls, rings and intricate marbling isrejuvenating and uplifting. The distinctive, patterned coloration, in variousshades and swirls from lightgreen to almost black make every single dial a unique piece,non-identical to any other.Just like the othervariations of the Essence lineup, the new dial is explicitly unisex.While looking at the dial for toolongmight feel hypnotic, a quick glance is enough to easily read time. Applied indices, deep-filled with Super-LumiNova® BGW9 and mirror-polished bevels provide legibility day and night.

Powering the watch is COSC-certified Swiss Sellita SW200-1 automatic movement featuring 26-jewels, a glucydur balance wheel, and a custom-built skeleton rotor with thermally blued screws. The movement is certified by the COSC (the official Swiss Chronometer Testing Institute) and undergoes the meticulous 15-day rate test to ensure extraordinary levels of mechanical accuracy and precision. The movement also provides you with 42 hours of power reserve when fully wound. An anti-reflective sapphire crystal provides you with a clear view of the dial details. The dial has a Vertical brush finish with horizontally cut lines which are CNC machined into the dial base one by one. A sapphire crystal is also used for the exhibition case back. The hands and hour markers are filled with Swiss Super-LumiNova BGW9 (glows a blue in the dark). The stainless steel case is 39mm in diameter and 10mm in thickness. Lug to lug measures 45mm.
