In The Wild: RESSENCE TYPE 5
As a result, it attracted the attention of the media. It got cool without trying — by far the coolest way to get cool. People were experimenting in every way. With music, drugs and clothes which created a carefree lifestyle that others quickly wanted in on.
So who cares? Well here’s the deal — I recently had the chance to spend some time with one of the coolest watches on the market, the RESSENCE Type 5. The Type 5 is mad. But in a good way…
Their so-called ROCS 5 system is comprised of 142 components. The ROCS 5 system is the patented movement set up driven by a minute axle of a customized self-winding 2824/2 base calibre. It is a module composed of the main and sub-discs ,which result in a 3D dial. These are always in motion and ever changing. But here’s the twist. The dial is immersed in 37.5ml of oil, which results in a number of benefits.
The result is a watch that is both ergonomic and considerably lighter than any traditional diver’s watch I’ve ever had the pleasure of strapping on. One way I measure a watch is by how quickly I slot into that subconscious process of just putting it on first thing in the morning.
Love it or otherwise, we can only but applaud RESSENCE for their innovation and willingness to think differently. And you know what, the Type 5 stands for something. And I love that. One thing is for sure, when you spot a RESSENCE in the wild — you can walk away having no doubt that you’ve just spotted a RESSENCE.
