Pantograph

Pantograph

Is a mechanical device used to accurately reproduce intricate patterns and designs on the watch's dial, case, and other components. It consists of linked arms or bars arranged in a parallelogram shape, with one end connected to a fixed point and the other end holding a pen or cutter. By tracing the original pattern using the pen, the Pantograph replicates the motion in a consistent manner.

Watchmakers use Pantographs to achieve precise and consistent replication of logos, decorations, or decorative patterns on various parts of the watches. Despite the availability of modern pattern replication methods, this traditional tool retains its importance in watchmaking, as skilled craftsmen continue to rely on its accuracy and artistic value.
