watches Biatec Heritage LE Helveti Gold

In cooperation with the Slovak brand Biatec, we present an exceptional limited edition Biatec Heritage LE Helveti Gold.

The historical figure Svatopluk I., the most important ruler of the Great Moravian Empire in the years 871 to 894, should be known from history lessons by almost everyone. As well as the legend of Svatopluk’s three rods, in which Svatopluk urges his three sons to unite as an effective defence against neighbouring enemies. On his deathbed, Svatopluk tied three rods together and handed them to the first son to break them. When he did not have the strength, he gave them to the second and similarly to the third. Then he separated the three rods, gave them one by one, and they immediately broke them. With this example he admonished them and said: “If you remain united and in love, the enemies will not be able to defeat you. If discord arises among you and you divide into three realms, not submitting to the first brother, you will destroy one another and be destroyed by the enemies!” However, the sons did not heed this lesson, discord soon arose between them and the disintegration of the Great Moravian Empire began.

The main idea of King Svatopluk - "Nepremôže vás nepriateľ, keď budete spolu držať" - is engraved as a hidden detail on the outer side of the dial. The three rods in a bundle are symbolised under the Heritage inscription.

The operation of the unique Biatec Heritage LE Helveti Gold watch is ensured by the Swiss mechanical movement with automatic winding Sellita SW221-1 in the Premium version. This movement with 26 jewels operates at a frequency of 28 800 vibrations per hour (4Hz) and the power reserve is the classic 38 hours. It also features a date display in an unconventional form of a central hand with a date scale on the outer side of the dial. The movement is decorated with blued screws and, in addition to the crown, winding of the mainspring is ensured by Biatec’s own rotor. The work of the movement can be observed through a view of sapphire crystal with an anti-reflective layer.

The watch case is made of polished stainless steel with a PVD treatment in rose gold colour and its diameter is a pleasant 38 mm, the length (lug-to-lug) is 46 mm, so the watch fits well on most wrists. Comfortable operation of the hands is enabled by a large crown with the Biatec logo.

The dark burgundy dial with a sunburst effect is perfectly complemented by applied indices in a polished finish and polished hands, both in rose gold colour. Sapphire crystal is a matter of course, which is maximally resistant to scratches. Good legibility in sharp light is then ensured by an internal anti-reflective layer. The water resistance of this watch is 50 m (5 ATM), so it can also handle contact with water, such as a shower or rain. The watch is held on the wrist by an alligator leather strap and a gold pin buckle.

The model is supplied in a box depending on availability.
