Mondaine Stop2Go
Why Does the Second Hand Stop After Each Minute for Two Seconds?
A unique feature of the Swiss Railway (SBB) Clock to ensure smooth and absolutely precise departures of Swiss trains on the full minute for the last 70 years. An ingenious design by a Swiss engineer employed by SBB, that ensured train punctuality would become a visible concept across the globe. The famous red second hand that turns full circle in 58 seconds and then waits at 12 o'clock for the black minute hand to move on, before jumping one marker forwards, starting its next rotation.
Mondaine asked designer Martin Drechsler, to come up with a design for the new watch. As a tribute to its industrial background he framed the stainless steel case with two matt-brushed stainless steel braces, fading to the horns to fit the strap. The crown has been built as a functional switch for easy time setting of the new and unique movement, which was developed by Mondaine.
The case, in stainless steel, measures 41mm. It has an AR-coated sapphire crystal and it is water resistant to 30 meters.
Movement is the Swiss quartz Mondaine caliber 58-02. The Stop2Go Swiss movement was developed exclusively for Mondaine over the past 4 years. The development was a complicated task as a regular quartz watch works with only one motor controlling the hands movement. The Mondaine Stop2Go has two synchronized motors; one to move the second hand, the other motor to release the minute hand jump and to turn the hour hand.
The sweeping second hand glides for 58 seconds around the dial and then stops for 2 seconds at 12 o'clock. The minute hand then jumps one marker forwards and the second starts again. The two motors that drive the continuously sweeping second hand have high power consumption; therefore this model is equipped with a larger battery to ensure an operating life of more than 3 years.
