An Artifact Of Innovation-The Hamilton/Buren Intramatic

Post by tempusmaximus »

The first ever micro - automatic watch movement was patented by Uhrenfabrik Buren AG in the 50s . When their "Planetary Rotor" automatic movement was released in 1957 in the "super slender" line , it was one of the flattest automatics of its time and derivatives of the movement competed with the Universal Geneve micro-rotor for thinnest automatic in the world for years.
