Manufacture Modules Technologies (MMT) is a Swiss joint venture SARL formed in 2015 by Fullpower Technologies in Silicon Valley and Union Horlogere Holdings headquartered in Geneva.[1]

The initial licensees are Frederique Constant, Alpina and Mondaine. Together, they are planning on offering ten different models in designer collections for both women and men.[2] Fullpower creates and manages the circuit design, firmware, smartphone applications (including sleep activity), as well as the cloud Infrastructure. MMT manages the Swiss watch movement development and production as well as licensing and support for the Swiss watch industry.[3][4]

Horological Smartwatch

Modules produced by MMT and the MotionX platform are the engine of the Horological Smartwatch, characterised by the fact that it is based around a dial rather than a screen. The watches connect to an app on Android or iOS phone, allowing to track activity, measure sleep cycles, and get reminders to be more active if sitting too long. Activity and sleep quality can be seen on a secondary analog dial on the watch face itself. [5][6]
