News The Timelab Foundation presents the new chronometric certification, which is open to all mechanical watches made in Switzerland. The new «Chronometric+» certifies that a watch complies with the requirements drawn up by the laboratory and authorises it to bear the title of «chronometer watch» in accordance with the internationally recognised ISO/CEI 3159 standard. The guarantee covers the finished watch and extends to other aspects relating to its reliability such as water resistance, magnetic resistance, power reserve and performance on the wrist. The «Chronometric+» Observatory Certification is based on recognition at a state level (via law I 1 25 passed by the Canton of Geneva) and at a technical level (via the accreditations in process at the SAS, the Swiss Accreditation Service). Taking into account the accreditations and the certified test protocols, the certification process will be carried out in the watch factories on each individual piece, overseen by authorised Timelab auditors.
