DescriptionThe Formex Essence FortyThree Chronometer Malachite, reference number 0330.1.6390.100, is a horological instrument constructed with a case body comprised of 316L stainless steel. This specific grade of steel is known for enhanced corrosion resistance. The assembly measures 43 millimeters in diameter and 10.6 millimeters in height. A notable feature is the patented Case Suspension System, which is designed to provide enhanced shock absorption, although the specific mechanism is not detailed. The dial is fabricated from the mineral malachite, presenting a unique pattern in each piece. Protection for this dial is afforded by a sapphire crystal treated with an anti-reflective coating, maximizing visibility under various lighting conditions. The timepiece boasts a water resistance of 10 atmospheres, translating to approximately 100 meters, rendering it suitable for surface-level aquatic activities.

At the heart of the watch lies the Sellita SW200-1 automatic movement, bearing the distinction of a COSC chronometer certification. This designation signifies rigorous testing for precision timekeeping. The power reserve is stated as 41 hours, indicative of the mainspring's energy storage capacity. Further specifications include a jewel count of 26, and an operational frequency of 28,800 semi-oscillations per hour (4 Hz). The movement offers the following functionality: hours, minutes, seconds, and a date display. Date adjustments are achievable through a rapid correction mechanism. The watch has a total weight of 90 grams for the case only, making it a substantial yet wearable piece. The movement is embellished with a customized skeletonized rotor. The straps and bracelets are furnished with a quick-release mechanism. The stainless steel bracelet incorporates a patented fine-adjustment mechanism integrated into the carbon fiber composite clasp.
