Tread 2
continues to use of the Tread 1's patented movement technology employing
an innovative system of fiberglass-reinforced nylon Time Belts. The
belts are only 2/1000th's of an inch thick and are a technology
appropriated directly out of the cockpits of airliners like the Boeing
747 where they indicated vital measurements such as air speed and fluid
levels. the belts are mounted on a central chassis and driven by two
extremely compact microstep motors. These motors and all other watch
functions are controlled by a microcontroller, essentially an extremely
compact computer inside the heart of the watch. Loaded with DEVON's
proprietary software, this computer manages all of the timepiece's
functions and ensure precision time-keeping, the preliminary testing of
which indicates an unusually accurate tolerance of only one half-second
per day.
