Description

This year, in order to express the very best in watchmaking, the Manufacture in Le Brassus has decided to develop a model equipped with complex mechanisms and clothed in a case inspired by that of a 1920s cushion-shaped pocket-watch belonging to its private museum. The result is the Tradition Tourbillon Minute Repeater Chronograph, produced in two 10-piece limited editions: one in pink and white gold, and the other in titanium and white gold. With its titanium case middle and white gold bezel offers the wearer the best possible auditory experience when the minute repeater is in operation. Few people are aware that the quality of the sound emitted by a watch largely depends on the metal from which the case is made, as well as its volume. The larger the case and the lighter and harder the materials, the more it enables the acoustic waves to expand. The 47 mm titanium case thereby maximises the sound volume, thus enhancing connoisseurs’ listening pleasure. In addition to its original design, this extraordinary instrument also houses an exceptional movement combining highly sought-after horological complications including a tourbillon regulator and a minute repeater mechanism. Assembled within a single mechanism and complemented by a chronograph function, they form a rare and outstanding whole
