Transparency as a signature
The choice of an openwork – or “openface” – dial is not insignificant. It reveals the full complexity of the movements and sublimates the craftsmanship of the Maison, while offering an ultra-modern aesthetic. These limited editions of 370 pieces each embody a subtle interplay between tradition, watchmaking architecture and bold design.
Three emblematic complications
The three models presented – Calendrier Complet, Quantième Perpétuel à Date Rétrograde, and Tourbillon à Date Rétrograde – are in the pure tradition of the Traditionnelle collection. They all feature a 41mm 950 platinum case with classic lines and stepped lugs, while their open dials reveal the delicately hand-finished gears.
