The DNA of the still young French brand “Reservoir”, which was founded in Paris in 2015 and has its watches manufactured in La Chaux-de-Fonds, is dominated by old historical precision instruments from the golden era of car racing in the 20th century. The Longbridge model series refers stylistically to the English city of the same name, where cars have been produced since 1905. The dial’s design was inspired by the instrumental and intuitively readable style of the counters and dashboard instruments of those bygone years. The minutes are indicated by a retrograde hand, while the hour is shown on a jumping indicator at “6 o’clock”. Directly below it is a power reserve display designed to resemble the fuel gauge in an automobile. Augmented with a patented module, ETA Calibre 2824-2 faithfully keeps time under the British racing green dial and inside is the 39-mm case, which is made from 316L stainless steel.
