BENU Hamatic Rose Gold
MG-002302
The HAMATIC brings the dream of perpetual motion closer to reality. While not a true perpetual motion machine, the watch uses kinetic energy from the wearer’s movement to power its mechanism. A pendulum-style hammer weight transfers energy via a ratchet wheel to the mainspring, ensuring the watch remains wound without external power sources. This ingenious system offers a unique take on the concept of infinite motion, making it a true marvel of horological engineering.

Of course, the HAMATIC does not purport to be perpetual motion machine – after all, the first automatic watch from Moritz Grossmann draws its kinetic energy from an external source. A pendulum-style hammer weight skilfully uses the energy generated through the wearer’s movements to transfer it via the ratchet wheel to the mainspring in the barrel, meaning that an external energy source makes the dream of infinite motion come true. It’s therefore safe to say that the HAMATIC is one of the most beautiful and complex examples of would-be perpetual motion.
Throughout millennia, researchers and inventors strived to build a perpetual motion machine, a device that would continue to move indefinitely once started. Without any external source of power, it was believed that the machine itself would generate an unlimited amount of energy. It was only with the formulation of the law of conservation of energy in the middle of the 19th century that physics quashed the principle of perpetual motion. Nevertheless, people’s fascination for the concept remained unbroken
