Classica Secunda 1995 M
THE FINE ART OF CLOCK-MAKING – TECHNICAL DETAIL AND UNCOMPROMISING DESIGN MERGE SEAMLESSLY IN A CLASSIC-MODERN TIMEPIECE FROM ERWIN SATTLER
It takes an average of two years to manufacture all the individual components of a precision pendulum clock. Handmade in exclusive small-batch series of no more than ten pieces, the clocks clearly show the deep-rooted link with tradition and the passion for detail that contribute to their high quality. The Classica Secunda 1995 M is an impressive example of Erwin Sattler furthering its great tradition for precision pendulum clocks.
The design of the Classica Secunda 1995 M is dominated by a cutaway dial for seconds, which allows a view of the goldplated gear wheels. Other fine details are the star-shaped stainless steel escape wheel bridge and the poire hands – meticulously domed, polished and blue tempered by hand. A glass pane in the top allows light to enter the case and illuminate the inner workings from above. Precious woods encase the high-precision movement and round off the piece as a timeless work of art. With its 30-day movement and ability to keep time with an accuracy drift of around one to two seconds per month, the Classica Secunda 1995 M is also a technical triumph. The Graham escapement with jewel pallets ensures a constant transmission of energy to the pendulum. Gold-plated wheels, arbors made from special Swedish steel, five ball bearings and 11 jewel bearings in two base plates crafted in four-millimetre-thick hard brass increase the efficiency and longevity of this “clock for generations”.

Treasures are kept safe and hidden inside a fascinating and impressive precision pendulum clock
The Troja Sonata M, a precision pendulum clock with half-hour impact mechanism and moon phase display. As an imposing grandfather clock, it can also hide the most secret treasures … In addition, the video also shows the Secunda Sonata, the counterpart as a classic precision pendulum clock for the wall.
