Protecting the Heart
Shock protection systems prevent damage to the balance wheel when your watch is dropped or bumped.
Shock Protection Systems
| System | Manufacturer | Protection |
|---|---|---|
| Incabloc | Swiss | Excellent |
| KIF | Swiss | Excellent |
| Parachoc | Seiko | Excellent |
| Diashock | Seiko | Good |
How It Works
- A spring-loaded jewel setting absorbs impact
- The balance wheel pivot can move slightly during impact
- This prevents the pivot from breaking
