Accutron DNA 2ES8A004 – Electrostatic Innovation in Blue and Grey

The Accutron DNA 2ES8A004 embodies the futuristic design and engineering philosophy that define the modern Accutron Electrostatic collection. Inspired by the brand’s heritage of technological innovation, the DNA series reveals the intricate architecture of the movement through its distinctive open-worked dial design.

This reference features a blue open-work dial complemented by a silver-grey accent on the outer hour and minute ring and polished silver-tone hands. The dial’s open construction allows a view of the movement structure beneath the sapphire crystal, reinforcing the technical identity of the watch. 

The watch is housed in a bold 45 mm stainless steel case finished in a combination of grey and dark blue tones. A turbine-inspired caseback stamped with the Accutron logo further emphasizes the engineering focus of the design. 

Completing the watch is a sporty grey integrated rubber strap with double-press deployant closure, delivering both comfort and contemporary styling suited to the futuristic DNA aesthetic.

The NS30 Electrostatic Movement

At the heart of the watch is Accutron’s proprietary NS30 Electrostatic Movement, an innovative system that differs fundamentally from both mechanical and traditional quartz watch movements.

Electrostatic energy is generated through twin turbines that spin rapidly between electrodes as the watch moves on the wrist. The energy produced is stored within an accumulator and powers two independent motors:

• A world-first electrostatic motor driving the smooth sweeping seconds hand
• A step motor advancing the hour and minute hands

This architecture creates the fluid seconds motion that defines the Accutron Electrostatic collection. 

To better understand how this technology works—and how it compares with other high-precision watch movements—read our guide to the Accutron NS30 Electrostatic Movement Technology.

Power Saving Function

The NS30 movement incorporates an intelligent Power Saving Function designed to conserve stored energy.

After approximately five minutes of inactivity, the seconds hand automatically stops at the 12-o’clock position while the hour and minute hands continue keeping time internally. When motion resumes, the seconds hand gradually returns to the correct second indication and continues its smooth sweeping motion.
