The Ressence Type 1S is built around a completely different way of displaying time. Instead of conventional hands, the white dial uses a series of rotating discs that orbit one another while remaining upright, creating the fluid, almost kinetic appearance that has become central to Ressence’s design. The titanium case keeps the overall presentation light and understated, while the monochrome white configuration makes the unusual display especially easy to appreciate.
The watch uses Ressence’s ROCS 1.3 automatic system, built around a modified base movement and designed specifically to drive the orbital display. Hours, minutes, seconds, and the day of the week are presented across the rotating dial, with the system also incorporating the AM/PM indication. There is no conventional crown; winding and setting are handled through the caseback mechanism, another detail that makes the Type 1S fundamentally different from a conventional mechanical watch.
The Type 1S is a good example of Ressence’s approach to watchmaking: the complexity is concentrated in how the information is displayed rather than in adding traditional complications. The combination of the titanium case, white dial, orbital display, and fluid movement of the discs gives the watch a character that is difficult to confuse with anything else. This particular example is from 2021 and is in like-new condition.
Please view pictures carefully as I use a very strong macro lens to showcase any and all imperfections. Typically, this will embellish the imperfections and/or lead to the inevitable specks of dust. I am always happy to provide more pictures at different angles, whatever you're unsure of.
I am a full time firefighter and am very involved in my community - my reputation is everything to me. Please feel free to reach out with any questions and I will answer promptly to make sure you are taken care of and we can have a smooth easy transaction.
