The Timeless Connection Between Chronometry and Navigation
Historically, precise timekeeping was essential for navigators charting their courses in the open seas, where every second counted. Just a one-second deviation could translate into a positioning error of nearly 500 meters at the equator. The implications are surprising: a COSC-certified watch can allow for deviations that, over time, can lead to miscalculations of up to 70 kilometers after a ten-day sailing.
LEDERER chronometer overcomes such challenges, equipped with two remontoirs that ensure accurate time is maintained throughout the power reserve without the well-known variation in accuracy caused by the mainspring.
