Available upon request only. A true ship's chronometer is not a purchase for today, but an heirloom to be passed down through generations.

The Wempe unified chronometer is a masterpiece of craftsmanship and precision, an investment in timeless quality and refined engineering. For over 75 years, this mechanical instrument has been handcrafted to the highest standards of WEMPE, proudly bearing the "Made by Wempe" label. With dimensions of 200 x 200 x 210 mm, the entire piece exudes classic elegance. The case is made of wood with a piano lacquer finish, while the polished brass gimbal suspension ensures stability and balance on any water.

The unique design, where the movement rests on only three pillars, makes this chronometer not only a technical marvel but also a true work of art. The white dial with brass details and the transparent plexiglass casing offer a full view of the calibre 5 movement, which provides an impressive power reserve of 56 hours.

A "power reserve of 56 hours" means that the movement, after being fully wound, can run continuously and accurately for a period of 56 hours before it needs to be wound again. The Calibre 5 movement is a specific mechanical movement design by WEMPE, representing the unique configuration and high-quality components of this internal mechanism.

This exclusive, mechanical masterpiece combines the tradition of maritime timekeeping with a modern, refined aesthetic, making it a unique addition to any high-end nautical setting. It is a collector's item, a work of art, with a price tag that reflects this value. For that, you receive a work of art from jeweler Wempe. These chronometers are exclusively available upon request.
