Rate measurement
The watch has been checked on a timegrapher.

Measured deviation: +5 seconds per day
Amplitude: 299°
Beat error: 0.2 ms
Lift angle: 52°
Set frequency during measurement: 25,200 A/h

The measured values provide a snapshot in the measured position and do not constitute a guarantee for the daily deviation during wear or for the future technical state of the movement.

Note: for the L619.2, a frequency of 28,800 A/h is typically specified. The timegrapher was set to 25,200 A/h during this measurement. Therefore the displayed rate deviation should be interpreted with some caution.

Around the back are, among other things, inscriptions:

ALL STAINLESS STEEL
