Welcoming the all-new Autark K2 Small Seconds.

Autark is German for “independence” and “self-sufficiency”, and with the Autark Tourbillon project well underway, we felt that a K2 micro-rotor equipped version seemed a natural fit to our range. There’s strength and endurance with 72 hours of power reserve with one of the most efficient winding rotors in the industry, the K2 is a benchmark for modern movement engineering.

The Autark K2 Small Seconds is available with 2 different dial colours, Salmon for the more traditional look and Gradient Grey for an undertoned vibe. Both feature rhodium silver lume-filled appliqués and a gold-plated Tungsten micro-rotor. 

Swiss Super LumiNova® ensures excellent legibility at night and in a first for the K2 movement, a legible sub-dial at 6 o’clock housing the small seconds enhancing the look with everything protected by a sapphire crystal with multiple anti-reflective coatings.

A TITANIUM TRADITION

In common with all previous K1-powered Horage Autark timepieces, the case of the all-new Autark K2 Small Seconds is Grade 5 titanium. This is much stronger and lighter than 904L stainless steel used on many of our cases, additionally being more scratch resistant.

A polished bezel complements the otherwise vertical brushing for a sporty and sophisticated aesthetic, which is only enhanced by the custom integrated three-link bracelet with our ultra-low profile micro-adjusting clasp (HMAC) which features 10mm of adjustment in 1mm steps.

A refined sports watch through and through.

Full crown guards and water resistance of 100 meters add protection and ruggedness for outdoor adventures, while the sapphire exhibition case back displays our in-house K2 micro-rotor calibre.

MICRO-ADJUSTMENT CLASP

The Horage team began engineering the micro-adjustment clasp (HMAC) in early 2021 with a finished prototype a year later. It’s among the thinnest of its kind at only 5.6mm with a full 10mm of adjustment (in 1mm increments) via an internal button. 

Introduced on the Supersede and is now debuting in titanium with our latest Autark K2.

We rigorously lab-tested the micro-adjusting clasp in Switzerland with thousands of actuations and it performed flawlessly. It provides a quick and tool-free way to perfectly dial in the size for any wrist, climate or outfit.

K2 MICRO-ROTOR

The COSC-certified K2 micro-rotor

has become our mainstay calibre and is the most attainable in-house Swiss micro-rotor in the industry, featuring a gold-plated Tungsten rotor and a vertical brushing that matches the case. 

The rest of the movement is in a dark anthracite colour with our signature open grid pattern with anglage and Côtes de Genève.

Adding to the resiliency and reliability are an anti-magnetic silicon escapement and hairspring, which is a rare combination for an independent watchmaker and increases overall efficiency and isochronism.

Five years of development have led to this incredibly precise, 3.6mm modular calibre with efficiency on par with conventional automatic rotors.
