Based on the first EMC generation rewarded twice by the GPHG, the EMC enables its wearer to monitor both its precision as worn on the wrist, as well as the amplitude of the watch. Interactivity remains at the heart of the EMC concept. Accuracy can then be easily adjusted for each owner's lifestyle rather than the controlled environment of the watchmaker's atelier.
As a world-first, the EMC “Time Hunter” allows the owner to gauge both the state of the movement (Amplitude) and the chronometric performance (Precision) of his watch. The EMC’s monitoring unit is powered by a micro-generator made by the Swiss company Maxon, known for developing motors for NASA’s Mars rovers.
The balance is made non-magnetic and anti-corrosion ARCAP. Its dimensions and shape have been carefully calculated to optimize data from the optical sensor, maximize aerodynamic efficiency and minimize loss of amplitude. When activated, a tiny optical sensor on the balance wheel captures the precise rate of oscillation of the 4 hertz / 28,800 vph regulator for a period of 3 seconds. The precision can be adjusted by turning the screw on the back, which changes the active length of the spring. This allows the owner to adjust the time to suit his own lifestyle.
