Limes Integral Gives Franck Muller Like Tonneau Style: For Sale On eBay
Limes Watch Company hails from popular watch manufacturing Pforzheim Germany. Recently, I discussed Botta Design watches that also have their manufacturing plant in Pforzheim. Limes operates in the typical Teutonic watch making fashion of making high quality watches at relatively low prices. For the design, movement, fit, finish, price, and overall experience, a Swiss watch will never beat the sheer efficiency and consistency of German offerings. Germans really put the industrialization into watch making with a craftsman twist, while Swiss watches are still made with varying degrees of elitism and maintenance of traditional ideals.The Limes Integral watch is instantly an homage to the popular style of watch master Franck Muller whose watches present an instantly recognizable numbering font.

Question for reserve power 2500
If a watch is new to you, but you know it's never been worn and was produced 3 years ago and has just sat in jeweller or factory, should that power reserve be on full 48 hours when wound fully, or does that watch need to be worn for a bit before that happens. I wound fully and barely got 24 hours, but it wasn't worn, only sat in box, and hasn't been worn properly yet, maybe for 20 minutes in that 24 hour period. Anyone know the ins and outs of this question and if you have to wear it for it to be full power reserve?
