H: What is distinctive about this collection?

FPJ: First, quartz is not pretty to look at, so here I designed to be, and did not try to hide it like most quartz movements. The second is the issue of the battery is almost two-fold. When it dies it dies. And usually, that is about three years. So this watch is made so that when you lay it dormant, it sleeps. And as soon as you pick it up, it goes to the exact time. But not only does it go to the exact time, it always takes the closest path to go to the exact time to conserve energy. There is also another thing, there are two engines. Usually, with a quartz watch, you have one engine with gears for the seconds, and the other gears for the hours and minutes. If you have running gears you have friction and friction uses energy. So, we have one engine for the seconds and another for hours and minutes. If you have gears you have to have lubricants like oil in a car – you can't do without. And after a few years, it starts to deteriorate and the watch loses its lubricant and there is more friction and use more energy. So by having two independent [engines] there are no more gears, there is no more lubricant. So even something like quartz is done and redone, we have been able to invent something that makes sense on a watchmaker's level.
