The WM Leonardo Réserve de Marche is an automatic watch with a “Power Reserve Dial” that constantly displays the energy level, so if its low, all you do is wind the crown to see the power reserve increase.

The Leonardo Réserve de Marche has been meticulously designed. The dial is engraved in “Guilloche” style, a technique that produces an intricate three dimensional pattern with a silver effect to the work.

In addition, the entire workings of the fascinating mechanism can be seen through the mineral crystal glass back.

This magnificent watch shares its characteristic with a very few watches of renowned brands. But there is one significant difference: the automatic watches with power reserve that can be found on the market are rare and generally cost more than US $6,000.

Since antiquity, man has searched for the best ways to measure time. The Egyptians, thousands of years before Christ, had already developed a very precise calendar. Later, the Greeks invented the clepsidre, an instrument consisting of a perforated vase that had marks by which you could measure the time taken for the water to escape. Then in the 3rd. Century AD, the sand clock was invented, an instrument that would last until the end of the 16th century.

Leonardo da Vinci, painter, sculptor, inventor and scientist, developed a number of scientific theories at the beginning of the 16th century. At the time, many of these, including great advances in the study of time-keeping, were ignored. It is only centuries later, with the benefit of modern scientific knowledge, that we can appreciate his brilliance.

To pay homage to this genius of invention and engineering, WM of Switzerland has proudly entitled its latest creation, equipped as it is with the advanced Power Reserve, with his name: Leonardo Réserve de Marche.
