WATCH COMPLICATIONS

In watchmaking, “complication” typically refers to any mechanism or information that adds to those intended for displaying time (hours, minutes, and seconds). They can be purely indicative or contribute to improving the watch’s performance and accuracy.

On this page, complications are divided into several major categories. For each complication, there is a detailed description of its origin, history, variants, manufacturing process, and how it functions.
