Pseudo-digital automatic watch? The CLAVIUS wristwatch from BOTTA

Klaus Botta, 21.11.2023

How does the CLAVIUS automatic watch work? What is the background? What characterizes this extraordinary and futuristic wristwatch? Mario Lenke discusses these and other exciting questions with the designer and developer of the CLAVIUS - Klaus Botta. The mechanically driven second hand, which gives a pseudo-digital impression, promises a special effect. Even at first glance, the CLAVIUS is something special, but at the same time perfectly legible at all times. Exceptionally high-quality components such as the tri-titanium case, the two domed and anti-reflective sapphire crystals and the Swiss-made automatic movements from Sellita round off the consistently high technical standards.
