ERA is high end luxury American watch company. ERA was founded in 2018 by Michael Galarza and is headquartered in New York City
ERA Hyperion a timepiece unlike anything the world has ever seen which introduced in 2018. Era is a tourbillon watch which mean in the addition to the mechanics of a watch escapement to increase accuracy. It was developed around 1795 and patented by the French-Swiss watchmaker Abraham-Louis Breguet on June 26, 1801.
Tourbillons are still included in some expensive modern watches (Swiss models, such as those by TAG Heuer and Frédérique Constant, start at around $15,000) as a novelty and a demonstration of watchmaking virtuosity.
ERA have two versions of the Prometheus tourbillon models. The one we have here on the review is the Prometheus with all stainless steel case and the price is 1499$.
Then there is a more luxurious version called Prometheus Titan Edition which has three bezel options: stainless steel, brushed titanium or platinum. And each Titan Edition features over 2.3 carats and over 78 diamonds that have been fused with the bezel and stretched around all surrounding metallic surfaces. All diamonds are Bright cut round GH coloured diamonds with a clarity of VS1. And this version costs $6500. All the versions have 10 straps and bracelets in total to choose from, so you can find the one you like and suits your style the most.
The Tourbillon movement itself is an Asian built
HZ3360A manual wound caliber. This tourbillon has around a 42 hour power reserve when fully wound – certainly good enough for myself. It also contains 20 jewels and beats at 28.8K / 4 HZ. The stated accuracy of this movement is + / – 25 seconds per day. Now, the cage itself at 6:00 will rotate completely every 60 seconds – which can be used for a second sundial
The million-dollar Question here,
Is ERA is the most successful mechanical watch project on Kickstarter from New York City ever, and the most successful mechanical watch project ever because they created the millionaire watch with Tourbillons mechanics affordable for less than $1000.
Or, ERA is ERA watches belong to the kind of commercial products which propose timepieces at the level of high-end products for a fraction of the price, backing up their claims with obsessive marketing.
