Product Description

Idalgo XT2 is the third piece created under the HD3 Complication brand, this piece is designed by Jorg Hysek himself. This exceptional watch marks the completion of the first Haute Horlogerie Trilogy as originally envisaged by the three founding designers of HD3 Complication. Idalgo perfectly reflects Jorg Hysek's vision of modern Haute Horlogerie.

Its originality of display is intriguing yet respectful of the culture inherent in today's watchmakers' world. Idalgo's display gives the impression of having two movements, whereas in fact it has one - the very first developed by HD3 Complication - bringing HD3 to a turning point in its development and opening up new watch-making horizons. HD3's XT-II exclusive movement was completed after more than 2000 hours of development work by HD3 craftsmen. XT-II caliber is an HD3 development based on the parts of the ETA 2892 caliber (42 hours power-reserve, 28'800 oscillations per hour, 32 rubies).

The face side has dual rotary oscillating displays framed by an over-sized golden case with fine regulator adjuster. The double-faced display reveals an innovative conceptualization : a jumping (or "flying") hour aperture, 180 degrees retrograde 60 minutes hand, 360 degrees seconds hand, large date display and 2nd Time zone. The back of the case subtly reveals a minute section of the movement leaving you with an overall impression of refined modernism echoing IDALGO's qualities of robustness, reliability and power - qualities also to be found in contemporary conceptualization of large-engine motor vehicles.

The Zenith Story

Zenith was created in 1865 by Georges Favre-Jacot, who, at age 22, was one of the first watchmakers to understand the importance of the principle of interchangeable parts.

It's said that one night after Jacot finished a movement he considered almost perfection he went out and looked at the stars and he felt the stars almost speak to him. He saw the gigantic constellation turning around the Pole star similar in the complexity to the movements of the pivots and the wheels on their axes. He decided then to call his new movement and its manufacture after the word that designates the highest point in the universe, ZENITH, the star was adopted as a brand symbol as it is still today.

By the time Jacot stopped working in 1929, Zenith had made watch history, winning grand prix medals for timekeeping precision at international expositions in Geneva, Paris, Barcelona, and Neuchatel.

In 1969, the company gained renown for introducing the world's first automatic chronograph movement, the El Primero. Oscillating at 36,000 alternations/hour, the El Primero was able to measure short intervals to a tenth of a second, an unsurpassed world record.

In 1995, Zenith launched a new generation of ultra-thin chronographs, the Elite, recently voted best mechanical movement by the professional press.

Since its beginning, Zenith has been recognized with more than 1,565 first observatory prizes in chronometry, making it the Swiss brand most rewarded for precision.
