Here is the explanation from the manufacturer Xeric : "Reading the time looks complicated but is actually quite easy. Simply look at where the hour meets the minutes in the upper viewing window. That’s it. As time passes, the next hour comes into view, and the geneva gear mechanism on the bottom shifts the hands to their next position."
For example here it is 11:43
I really hesitated between this blue and the teal one!
I happy of my choice but I think I'll swap the strap for a grey one like yours 😉
It's actually an automatic mechanical caliber ST1721 from Seagull. It is a jumping hour with a disc instead of the minutes hand :
It's sooo cool 😁
Yes except it's 5 minutes increments, but not exactly 😅
Actually the minutes indicator is a rotating disc with 5 minutes increments but with a bit of practice you can still tell the time with a 2-3 minutes precision...
For example here it is in between 10 and 15 but closer to 15, so 12 or 13 :
But it's clearly not for precise time telling 😂
The hours discs rotates and point at the fixed minutes track. It's way easier to understand when you see it moving 😅
