Patek Philippe “Advanced Research” Reference 5550P Watch Uses A Lot Of Silicon

The three areas completed in Silinvar are the GryomaxSi balance wheel, the Pulsomax escapement (two parts including the escape wheel and anchor of Silinvar) and the Spiromax balance spring. For the first time in a few years, Patek Philippe Replica Watches began using silicon parts with the Spiromax balance spring. Today, their “Advanced Research” department continues to use Silinvar to test and develop more parts.

The three new components involved in watch energy transfer are called “Oscillomax”. The term is engraved in the balance knob of the Patek Philippe Replica movement 240 Q Si movement. 5550P watch. So, from now on, when the Oscillomax label is attached to the Patek Philippe watch, you will know that it has a GryomaxSi balance, a Pulsomax escapement and a Spiromax hair accessory. Got it all?

Why are all these efforts and desires using Silinvar? You must know that Patek Philippe is really not the kind of brand that is “just different”. No, the reason is related to improving the accuracy, reliability, service life and efficiency of Swiss Patek Philippe Watches. Silinvar parts are smoother, so the air resistance is smaller (a big problem in the balance wheel) and relatively frictionless. This means that the watch movement will not only last longer but also be more accurate. They will also make better use of the power reserve and last longer – in other words, they will be more efficient. For example: the 240 Q Si movement is based on the existing ultra-thin perpetual calendar 240 Q automatic movement. The Si version has a power reserve of 70 hours – far more than the original 48 hours. This can be done by adding silicon components.
