The seriously playful Roland Iten Calibre R822
"Predator" mechanical belt buckle features four impressive
complications. The “Predator” is designed, manufactured and assembled to ensure
that all mechanisms are self-cleaning with no lubrication required. The white
gold body with red gold accents is fully-diamond-set with 387 diamonds
totalling 14.15 carats, while the platform is made from high-tech titanium.
Quadruple
complication
The full-pavé set "Predator" features
four complications for:
·
Quick and
simple changes of the leather strap.
·
Effortless
engagement of the buckle with the leather strap.
·
One-handed
operation of the buckle to tighten the leather strap.
·
One-handed
operation of the buckle to loosen the leather strap.
Ergonomic
design
In true Roland Iten style, Roland
conceived the Calibre R822 "Predator" calibre with wearer comfort in mind. To
that end, the Predator’s ergonomic design allows the wearer to:
·
Quickly
change the leather strap for another to complement attire.
·
Insert the
end of the leather strap in the buckle so that the double ardillion tang
engages effortlessly with the holes in the leather strap.
·
Easily
tighten or loosen the leather strap with just one hand. Security pushers ensure
against accidental release.
Tactile
pleasure
Operating the Calibre R822 is a
veritable tactile pleasure. The “Predator” offers a simple one-handed
adjustment for two positions, e.g. driving/sitting (looser) or walking/sport
(tighter). It is equipped with 16 (two rows of eight) self-cleaning track
wheels that guide the ardillion slide precisely and securely, while a sprung
ball bearing tensioner and dampener ensure smooth operation.
A patented, in-line double ardillion
enables the pins to have a smaller diameter than the holes in the strap. The
equal weight distribution offers resistance-free operation, minimizes wear, and
maximizes security.
Scintillating
diamonds
The Calibre R822 "Predator"
dazzles thanks to 387 VVS1+ quality baguette-cut and round-cut diamonds which
total 14.15 carats and adorn the buckle body.
