The Incabloc shock
protection system is the trade name for a spring-loaded mounting system for the
jewel bearings that support the balance wheel in a mechanical watch, to protect
the wheel's delicate pivots from damage in the event of physical shock, such as
if the watch is dropped. It was invented in 1934 by Swiss engineers Georges
Braunschweig and Fritz Marti, at Universal Escapements, Ltd, Chaux-de-Fonds,
Switzerland.
