The Model 50 is powered by an electronic movement supplied by ESA and is badged with the ‘NAC inc’ brand on the battery cover. For those unfamiliar with the movement technology in this watch, the ESA 1954 is not quartz or a tuning fork. Instead this is an electronic movement that draws power from a battery and uses it to energise a balance wheel, in the same manner as the stored energy of the mainspring does in a purely mechanical watch.Please let me know of any questions on this beautiful piece.
