If I recall correctly he uses 3 Beutler, a pantograph and one or two other. Just for the cases. Below are some pictures from the prototype making, including one of the pantograph model. First many brass samles, then silver and finally the gold when the co...
Good question. Well, I am not sure to what extent.

Problaby if he likes the idea (follows his design language) and something he or Hanne can do themselves. Something like full numerals, index only, 3,9,12, engraving stuff could possibly be made. Also different variations of metals: WG, YG, RG, silver, ger...
Thanks!

Thanks!

Congratulations on. your superb and near unique watch. A superb hand-made watchfor the connoisseur, it seems! Isn't that from Christian Lass, watchmaker of the Patek Philippe Museum for some 9 years? What else can you tell us on him? Will C. Lass make a l...
Thank you very much...

For your kind words! It really is a personal highlight for me being able to commission and recieve a watch made to this level by such a truly nice guy. I think everyone who has met Christian can attest to that. The project 30CP is being made in 50 pieces....
