ORIGIN

‘PALMOS’ – palmós

The name PALMOS comes from the Greek word ΠΑΛΜΟΣ, meaning ‘vibration’ or ‘pulse.’

In horology, Vibrations Per Hour (VPH) is a key measure for mechanical movements, describing how often a watch’s regulating organ completes its cycle in one hour.

It reflects the heartbeat of time, a rhythm that brings life to every automatic watch.
