The first lubrication-free watch bearing
X-Myrox
MPS Watch introduces ceramics in the design of its ball bearings for the first time in 2004.
In principle, wheels should be cleaned and re-lubricated every 5 years. By offering the lubrication-free bearing, X-Myrox, MPS Watch broke new ground at the time.
Over the years, MPS Watch has regularly improved its product to surpass market standards.
The ceramic used exclusively in the balls is the subject of a family of patents (N° CH000376/2023).
Lubrication of the wheels in a mechanical watch movement has long been a major concern for watchmakers.
This innovation is the result of research on materials by our engineers who contribute continually to the development of watchmaking technologies.
