So just what is the fuss over Rolex&#8217;s patented Chronergy escapement \u2013 which debuted a year and a half ago in the calibre 3255 \u2013 all about?<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_6086\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-6086\" style=\"width: 650px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-6086\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Calibre_3255_002-300x218.jpg\" alt=\"Rolex Calibre 3255\" width=\"650\" height=\"471\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Calibre_3255_002-300x218.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Calibre_3255_002.jpg 779w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-6086\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Rolex Calibre 3255<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The Chronergy escapement is really a modification of the Swiss lever escapement. The classically designed lever escapement is not very efficient, mechanically. Roughly 2\/3 of the energy it receives from the mainspring is consumed rather than being transferred to the balance wheel. The Chronergy escapement is uniquely designed to improve efficiency by about fifteen percent.<\/p>\n<p>It does this by reducing the mass of the components. A quick look at the escapement parts will tell you they\u2019re smaller and\/or skinnier. The pallet fork is lighter, with smaller pallet stones. And the escape wheel has been skeletonized.<\/p>\n<p>Now, in the engineering world of mechanisms, inertia is a huge consideration. Inertia is effectively defined as the tendency for objects in motion to stay in motion, and objects at rest to stay at rest \u2013 unless acted upon by an external force of some kind.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_6091\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-6091\" style=\"width: 650px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-6091\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/movement-3255-rolex-watches-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"movement 3255 - Bob's Watches \" width=\"650\" height=\"487\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/movement-3255-rolex-watches-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/movement-3255-rolex-watches-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/movement-3255-rolex-watches.jpg 1170w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-6091\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">movement 3255 rolex watches<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The more mass an object has, the more inertia it has. And so, it takes additional energy \u2013 by way of an external force \u2013 to get resting objects moving or get moving objects to stop.<\/p>\n<p>So, in order to use less energy to get the escapement components to start, stop, and change direction, Rolex designers have lightened up said components. As we noted above, they&#8217;re smaller and\/or skinnier.<\/p>\n<p>But that&#8217;s not all the designers did. They changed the geometry of the escape wheel teeth and pallet stones, and therefore, how they interact. They also changed the overall geometry of the mechanism in order to obtain better use of the leverage generated by the pallet fork.<\/p>\n<p>Precision manufacturing processes also improve the poise of the balance wheel by a factor of three. (Poising is effectively &#8216;balancing&#8217; the balance wheel similar to balancing the wheels of your car.) These manufacturing processes also enable the production of the pallet fork and escape wheel out of paramagnetic (only very weakly magnetic) nickel-phosphorus materials.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_6120\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-6120\" style=\"width: 650px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-6120\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Rolex-Day-Date-40-300x173.jpg\" alt=\"Rolex Day-Date 40 - Bob's Watches \" width=\"650\" height=\"375\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Rolex-Day-Date-40-300x173.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Rolex-Day-Date-40.jpg 831w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-6120\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Rolex Day-Date 40<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>All in all, these changes to the design of the Chronergy escapement led to much of the additional power reserve the 3255 holds over its predecessor.

The new Chronergy escapement, along with the new balance wheel are a big part of what enables Rolex to claim their recent redefinition of Superlative Chronometer and its -2\/+2 seconds per day precision.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you&#8217;re not a watch nerd, those words might sound a bit like a part from a DeLorean time machine [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":16,"featured_media":6091,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"ep_exclude_from_search":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1630],"tags":[],"ppma_author":[2289],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.0 -
